How many guests does South Kitchen + Bar hold?

Published figures put South Kitchen + Bar at about 40 seated and 50 standing. Tell us your guest count when you check your date and we will size the sound and lighting to the room.

Where is South Kitchen + Bar?

South Kitchen + Bar is at 247 E Washington St, Athens, GA 30601. We arrive 2 hours before your event starts and are out within an hour after.

Can you cover the ceremony as well as the reception?

Yes. Ceremony sound is its own setup rather than a speaker borrowed from the reception rig, and a lapel mic is included for your officiant.

Do you bring a photo booth to South Kitchen + Bar?

Yes. One team handles the DJ, the photo booth and the uplighting on one contract, so there is one load-in and one point of contact instead of three vendors coordinating with each other.

South Kitchen + Bar wedding venue

South Kitchen + Bar is a downtown restaurant in the old Georgian Hotel building. The Arch Room is its private dining room: exposed brick, tall arched windows and its own bar, seating about 40.

It is built for rehearsal dinners, welcome parties and the brunch after. For a room this size we bring a small setup that plays background music and handles the toasts.
