Southern Hospitality Celebrating You
Holds ceremonies and receptions
The Southerly Warehouse is a premier wedding venue located in the heart of Opelika's Historic District. Founded in 2016, this one-of-a-kind industrial 1800's warehouse serves as the perfect setting to tell your unique story. Filled with natural light, original brick walls and wooden ceiling beams, The Southerly Warehouse values hospitality above all and is focused on celebrating you and your guests.
The Chandelier Room features stunning oversized crystal chandeliers and exposed, original brick walls, perfect for a beautiful and intimate backdrop for any event. Adjacent to The Chandelier Room, The Garage Room features 30-foot vaulted ceilings, custom made light fixtures, and an original functioning wooden garage door, which can be opened for guests to enjoy a cool fall Southern evening. Together with the Chandelier Room, The Southerly can comfortably accommodate up to 300 guests. The Courtyard is a great spot for outside cocktails and summertime celebrations under its bistro lights. The Southerly also offers two Wedding Suites, so that you and your wedding party can relax and share special moments together as you prepare for the day ahead.
We pride ourselves in outstanding hospitality. We find that speaking by phone is the best way for us to begin our partnership in creating your perfect day. Please give us a call at 334-749-5616.
We are currently booking through 2024.
