INOLA’s Village – minutes from Downtown Blue Ridge
Hidden in a mountain forest is a fairy tale village with a colonial manor house, a picturesque tavern, and an exquisite jewel of a chapel. The street leading to the chapel has tiny replica shops and a postal office. The long dramatic drive to the stately manor house is lined with aged trees. Behind the house are formal English gardens with a resident peacock strutting amidst the flowers.

Family and friends will watch from pews wrought from antique heart of pine wood. Light streams in through the arched side windows, while the round window over the altar sets off the bridal couple.
Merchants Hope Church, located in Prince George County, Virginia, is the model for this chapel. Among the oldest Protestant churches in America, it was built in 1744. The first owner of the INOLA property had this sparkling gem built this near copy replica taking care to have all the details built in a manner consistent with Colonial architecture. Even the windowpanes are hand blown glass. The chapel has Flemish brick-bond brickwork, medallion cornices, and a graceful gable roof. The bell tower contains two antique bells weighing 225 and 125 pounds. Colonial architecture is rare in Georgia and unknown in the mountains.
Your reception will be held in the quaint Wetherburn’s Tavern. Both the chapel and reception area are surrounded by a dense forest creating a beautiful setting.

Beautiful Venue
We chose INOLA as our destination wedding venue with less than 4 months until our wedding date but Susie made the entire process so easy every step of the way. She was wonderful to work with and was super responsive with her communication and answering all of our questions. We loved that INOLA had multiple locations for the ceremony site as well as a separate places for both the bride and groom to get ready the day of. Our guests loved our wedding venue and we received many compliments about it. Would highly recommend INOLA to any bride to be!
