The Green River Plantation home was built in 1807 and is listed on the “National Historic Register”. The Plantation is now a private residence that is owned and operated by the Cantrell Family. The Cantrells open their home year round for Weddings, Receptions, Tours, Bed & Breakfast and many other events. The home itself is not open daily during certain hours, a reservation is needed to review the home for any of our services. Our contact information is listed on the About Us page of this website. Below is a list of our basic pricing for the weddings and how this service is set up.
Here at the Green River Plantation our goal is to provide a complete service for your Wedding day. We offer different locations for the Ceremonies and Receptions based on the size of each event. The locations; the Front Lawn space, Open Pavillion, Tea Room, Drawing Room in the Main House or Gate House are completely set up for each event. You may choose to upscale any of the locations, but the concept is to have each area completed for you and then if your budget needs allow you to upscale, then you may do so. This may mean simply bringing in additional florial items or live music performers, maybe adding an addition to our centerpieces.
The wedding fee does include may services, and the choice is up to you weather you wish to upscale or alter the arrangement. The cost or wedding fee itself is based on how many guest are attending (this is the guests only, not the bridal party) The final head count which will determine the structure of the wedding fee must be finalized no later then 48 hours before the event. If you are having a Saturday event, then the final head count must be called in before Thursday. For example, lets say you have 100 guests then you would fall into the 75-100 people range, that figure is $2875.00. These prices do not include the food for the reception or the rehearsal dinner.
