About Marietta

Founded in 1824, the early settlers built their first homestead in 1833 around Marietta Square where the courthouse was located. The square is still there but it is known today as Glover Park, named after Mayor John Glover, who donated the land to the city to be used primarily as a park.

With an average high of 72 degrees and an average low of 48, the pleasant climate encourages many outdoor activities. From the historic Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park to the peaceful nature of Sope Creek, having a wedding venue in Marietta is a fantastic idea indoors or out.

Pros and Cons of Weddings in Marietta

Since every city has its ups and downs, it is important to do your homework before making any concrete plans for your Marietta wedding venue. Here are the top three advantages and disadvantages of choosing this town to get hitched in.

Advantages

• The weather is great
  The mild winters mean you do not have to pack your long johns or snow boots even if your wedding is in January.
  
  
• Low prices
  Overall, the cost of living (and everything else) in Marietta is not bad. Compared to other cities of the same size, it is a bit lower than most.
  
  
• Fun things to do
  You and your bridal party will not have any trouble entertaining yourselves before and after the big day because Marietta has a lot of clubs and attractions to enjoy.

Disadvantages

• High crime rate
  You will need to be careful where you go in Marietta because some areas are not as safe as others. The crime rate is rated at 36 per 1,000 people so stay in the better neighborhoods like Sandy Plains, Mount Bethel, and Chattahoochee Plantation.
  
  
• Summers are hot
  Although it is great that winter is warm, you will find that the heat in Marietta can be pretty unbearable in the summer months. If you are planning an outdoor wedding, try scheduling it in March, April, October, or November.
  
  
• Traffic trouble
  Hiring a car service or using a rideshare app to get around is highly recommended because the traffic can be horrible.

Famous Locations in Marietta

  Even if you are not a historian, this park is a must-see while you are in Marietta for your wedding. Located at the site of a Civil War battleground, you can explore the entire 2,923 acres.
