Druid Hills Presbyterian Church (Not taking any bookings currently) Overview

Nestled in the Virginia Highlands neighborhood near Midtown, and across from The Majestic Diner and the Plaza Theatre on Ponce de Leon Avenue, Druid Hills Presbyterian Church provides couples with an arresting setting for a religious ceremony. Known for its rich history in The Big Peach, this legendary church possesses a singular ambiance that brims with the love and light of God. The neo-gothic architecture is nothing short of breathtaking, providing an epic backdrop for wedding photos. Imagine walking down a lovely slate blue-grey colored aisle lined with traditional dark wooden pews, smiling at your groom as you approach the sanctuary. Enjoy a traditional ceremony and say your vows beneath soaring vaulted wood ceilings riddled with ornate carvings and dripping with rustic pendant lights. Share your first kiss as husband and wife before beautiful stained glass windows, each holding a symbolic meaning that serves as a testament to God’s love. If you’ve been looking for the perfect ceremony venue that combines timeless beauty with spirituality, then look no further than Druid Hills Presbyterian Church!
