There is something magical about taking vows in a natural woodland setting with hundred year old oak trees as your witness. The reception however is under cover as you are surrounded with twinkle lights. The party may spill out onto the lawn, at the dock, by the pool, or around a band and bonfire...or at the MAGNOLIA VENUE & VERANDA it is a comfortable setting for all with a little planning.
For a Disc Jockey we use Central Arkansas Entertainment exclusively.
A Magnolia Hill reception is true Southern style, mixing formal with the informal...in a personalized, welcoming way.
Tables are furnished for the Wedding Cake table, Grooms cake, gift tables, video and food tables.
Reception tables are skirted in ivory tableskirts, to compliment our gold chavari chairs included with the venue.
A tree near the reception area serves as our "Memory Tree" embellished with string, clothespins, and your family pictures.
Guests enjoy viewing wedding gowns on display from our brides mothers and grandmothers.

In the fall, relax around a bonfire with s'mores for a "grooms cake".
We use Central Arkansas Entertainment exclusively for Disc Jockey and Photo Booth for the best parties ever. They can book a band, guitarist, harpist, or string ensemble.
Perhaps instead of a traditional grooms cake, we provide a table for smores to be enjoyed around the music and bonfire. Young and old alike still love to roast marshmallows.
Easy to hold, Pecan Tassies are great by the bonfire too!
For fall, our hay wagon serves as a dessert buffet with miniature pies and tarts ...and offers guests warm cocoa, coffee, or warm apple cider.
