Upon first arrival you will travel the winding drive to the main house, where you will be greeted by a truly stunning southern home and a warm welcome from the property owners, Kara and Hank.
    The Venue at Murphy Lane features a newly remodeled, fully customized barn for indoor events.  However, it is not your typical barn venue. With modern, yet classic, white washed ship lap walls, ceramic tile floors and a spacious catering kitchen, this is by far the most elegant location you will find on your search for the perfect wedding and event venue.
     In addition to the main house and the barn, our property also features a cozy log cabin, complete with a wrap around porch and charming white wooden gazebo surrounded by carefully manicured lawns and landscaping. The cabin is available for wedding and event day use as part of the Murphy Lane experience.
 
       Our venue also offers ample parking for wedding and event guests, as well as golf cart shuttles to various on-site locations during your event. We look forward to sharing our gorgeous property with you at our Ribbon Cutting Ceremony.
 
You are also invited to attend our Fall Open House on Sun., Nov. 4, 2019 from 2:00-4:00 PM.  Come out to meet some of our preferred vendors who are committed to providing you with professional service and creating the total experience for your very special occasion at Murphy Lane!
