How Original Victorian Floors Tell Your Love Story in Spartanburg County
When couples tour Adelaide Events Venue, I often see them pause at the farmhouse threshold. The original 1903 floors have a soft sheen and a gentle creak that makes the whole house feel alive. You can hear the sounds of shoes, laughter, and quiet moments as they move across the polished boards. Those floors set the tone, a true sense of place for your day in Inman, near Lake Bowen, at Adelaide Events Venue.
A historic wedding venue where details carry meaning
The farmhouse at Adelaide Events Venue gives you a dedicated getting-ready space upstairs, so hairpins, dresses, and last looks happen without hurry. Down on the grounds, the garden opens to a wide fescue lawn framed by hydrangeas, lilacs, gardenias, roses, and mature trees. Water from three fountains adds a calm rhythm while guests arrive. When it is time to seat everyone, the covered pavilion welcomes up to 120 guests, then the clear top dance floor takes over at night with a greenhouse-like glow.
The spaces and how guests move comfortably
Your day can start in the farmhouse at Adelaide Events Venue. The upstairs bridal suite has full-length mirrors and a long dressing table that makes hair and makeup easy for your team. When you are ready, you can step outside for a first look by the gazebo or along the open back field that photographers love for its farm-style feel. For the ceremony, you can choose a garden spot that fits your vision, then use the pavilion as a rain plan without changing the flow. After vows, the white gazebo often serves as a cocktail station while the garden tables hold passed bites. As the evening settles, guests transition naturally to the pavilion for dinner, then onto the covered dance floor where the clear top keeps views open and the celebration protected.
Dedicated Staffing and Event Support
We stay with you. Our venue staff is available before, during, and after your event to support setup, vendor arrivals, and pack up. You also have unlimited planning appointments on site, so you can walk through layouts, select decor from our Something Borrowed Room, and coordinate with your team ahead of time. A professional day of coordinator from Evergreen Magnolia Events is required, which means timelines, rehearsal direction, and vendor management are handled by a dedicated partner who knows the property.
Food & Beverage Plan and Coverage
You have freedom here at Adelaide Events Venue. Bring your own licensed and insured bartender if you plan to serve alcohol, and select vendors you love or choose from our preferred list. We provide the venue essentials you need for a polished dinner, including reception tables, Chiavari chairs, and white ceremony chairs. The pavilion includes permanent drapery and space heaters for cooler days, and roll-down sides are available when the weather calls for it.
What is included with your booking, and what to plan separately
With your booking, you gain access to the Something Borrowed Room for linens, chargers, votives, and decor. You also have use of the bridal suite, a groom’s room, indoor restrooms, including one that is wheelchair accessible, and a private, well-lit parking lot. Venue setup and pack up are included. You will plan event insurance, a licensed bartender if serving alcohol, and your day of coordination through Evergreen Magnolia Events.
Rehearsal options that fit real schedules
Every couple receives a complimentary one-hour rehearsal scheduled six weeks prior, based on availability. If the day before is not open, we will place it on a weekday that works. If you want more time on the property, you can rent a six-hour block the evening before for rehearsal, decor setup, and a dinner for up to 40 guests. That option allows you to load in personal items the day before your wedding.
Neighborhood cues and photo opportunities
We are on Foster Road in Inman, with Lake Bowen nearby. The open back field gives you wide sky frames, while the gazebo and garden paths offer classic lines for portraits. Many couples choose the fountain edges for family photos, then return at sunset to the garden where the mature trees filter golden light.
Event types we support
We host outdoor ceremonies with receptions in the garden and pavilion, and we offer combined ceremony and reception plans using the pavilion as needed. Engagement and bridal photo shoots can be scheduled Monday through Thursday by appointment.
Conclusion
If you want a historic setting with true outdoor flexibility, come see the farmhouse, the garden, and the pavilion working together. We will show you ceremony spots, the clear top dance floor, and the gazebo flow for cocktails. We would love to walk the grounds with you and talk through your plan.
