Spring (March–May) and fall (October–November) offer the most pleasant weather. Savannah's azaleas bloom in spring, and fall brings comfortable temperatures. Summer is hot and humid but the city is lush and green.
We offer elopements at Forsyth Park (Savannah's most iconic park with its famous fountain) and the Davenport House (a historic Federal-style mansion in the heart of the historic district).
At Forsyth Park, packages accommodate up to 6 guests (Getaway Plus) or up to 12 guests (Friends and Family). At the Davenport House, packages accommodate up to 10 or 20 guests.
Forsyth Park is our primary Savannah venue and offers the classic Savannah experience with live oaks, Spanish moss, and the iconic fountain. It's one of the most photographed locations in the city.
Savannah is perfect for a long elopement weekend. The historic district is entirely walkable with incredible restaurants, rooftop bars, ghost tours, and nearby Tybee Island beach — all within a short drive.
Both cities offer Southern charm and Spanish moss, but Savannah has a more intimate, walkable feel with its famous town squares. Charleston offers a wider variety of venue styles and a larger dining scene. Both are beautiful — it comes down to personal preference.
