Couples from Aberdeen want a wedding venue that feels rooted in history but doesn't sacrifice modern comfort or service. They want authentic details, not generic ballrooms. And that's exactly what Cobalt Manor offers.
When you walk through our doors at 47 East Commerce Street in Smyrna, you're stepping into an 1868 mansion that we spent three years restoring. The Italian inspired architecture, the wood flooring in our grand ballroom, the vintage bar with its classic saloon feel. These aren't decorations we added. They're the bones of the building. And for Aberdeen couples planning a wedding, that kind of authenticity makes a difference.
What Aberdeen Couples Find When They Visit Cobalt Manor
You're looking for a wedding venue that feels authentic, handles the details, and gives your guests a smooth experience from ceremony to reception. Here's what makes Cobalt Manor work for Aberdeen couples.
Spaces That Tell a Story Without Trying Too Hard
Our mansion style venue gives you options without overwhelming you. You can host an intimate ceremony in our Victorian Slate Patio and Garden under tree cover and hanging baskets, then move your guests inside to the grand ballroom with its expansive wood flooring for dinner and dancing. If you want a cocktail hour, the Cobalt Room offers a cozy, sophisticated backdrop with vintage saloon décor that feels personal, not stuffy.
We also have flexible event spaces across separate floors, so whether you're planning for 15 guests or over 100, the layout adjusts. You're not forcing your celebration into a one size fits all room.
The All Inclusive Approach
Your booking includes ceremony and reception space, chairs, linens, flowers, catering with food and alcohol, photography services, and coordination from our day of wedding specialist. We have vendor partnerships for DJs and makeup artists. We handle setup and cleanup. We offer get ready suites for your wedding party, and newlyweds can stay overnight in our master suite.
We even have an Airbnb next door for out of town guests from Aberdeen or anywhere else. You don't have to chase down ten different vendors or wonder if your florist will show up on time. Our team takes care of it, and our concierge services handle the details on the day itself.
Food and Beverage Without the Guesswork
Our in house culinary team designs your menu, and you choose from buffet style dining, family style service, or brunch and luncheon options if you're planning a daytime celebration. We offer customizable entrées, sides, and vegetables through our buffet packages, and our Small Party Buffet works beautifully for intimate gatherings.
For beverages, you can choose a Select Bar with signature drinks, wines, and beers, or an Open Bar with a wider variety of spirits. We also offer soda packages, coffee and tea service with full stations, and brunch add ons like Mimosa, Spiked Coffee, or Bloody Mary bars if you're hosting a morning or early afternoon event.
If you want lite hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour or a dessert buffet with options like Peach Cobbler or French Bread Pudding, we've got you covered there, too.
Planning Flow That Makes Sense on the Day
You don't want your guests wandering around confused. Our layout gives a smooth progression from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. The Victorian Slate Patio and Garden works for ceremonies, the Cobalt Room handles cocktails, and the grand ballroom or event building hosts dinner and dancing. Our day of specialist coordinates the transitions so you can focus on your guests, not logistics.
Why Aberdeen Couples Drive to Smyrna for This
We welcome couples from across the region, including those traveling from farther areas like Aberdeen. Part of it is the historic charm you can't replicate in newer venues. Part of it is the convenience of having everything handled by one team. And part of it is knowing that when your family and friends arrive, the parking is sorted, the flowers are in place, the bar is stocked, and the photographer is ready.
