I will always recommended The Belle Rae to anyone for any event, especially weddings. They have such great taste and want the event to be beautiful just as much as you do. They are so helpful the day of as well. We did the all inclusive package which included the planner and coordinator. They did so well at scheduling and contacting the vendors that I had no clue there were any hiccups with vendors until after when I spoke to them. I can’t recommend them enough!!! They are all so helpful. Thank you everyone at The Belle Rae?

Shannon and the Belle Rae team are every bride’s dream to work with!! Every detail of our wedding day was perfection thanks to Shannon. Wouldn’t recommend any other coordinator/designer/florist to do the planning process with! Shannon was there for us every step of the way and made sure every detail we wanted became reality.

They are the best! Shannon, the owner of the belle rae, is amazing. She made my wedding day so perfect. She went above and beyond for my husband and I and we walked away so happy. She has such a creative, beautiful eye for all things events. I highly recommend her establishment. Her whole staff are the sweetest and were a pleasure to work with. Please give this venue your business. Shannon is not only the owner of The Belle Rae, she is an in-house florist, and plans events outside of her venue.

WE LOVE THE BELLE RAE!

Shannon Hough and her team at The Belle Rae are one of a kind. They were able to turn my first nonprofit gala into a first class event that everyone keeps raving about. They are all so amazing, nice and helpful!

I have struggled with whether or not to post anything about our situation. I have decided to post in hopes that I can prevent this from happening to someone else.
In May, we met Shannon Hough from SHE (Shannon Hough Events) at her venue, Belle Rae. We fell in love with the venue which has so much southern charm. We made the decision to have our wedding and reception at the Belle Rae, and to have Shannon as our wedding coordinator. We signed a contract to secure our date for the Belle Rae wedding venue and for Shannon (SHE) to coordinate our wedding day. Two days later, Shannon texted me that our date that we signed a contract for was no longer available because her partner switched a wedding date without writing it down on their master calendar. To make a long story short, she did not want to refund our money for the venue or for her as our wedding coordinator. This was not our mistake. This was their mistake and they did not want to refund our money. When I stood up for us and would not be bulldozed by Shannon when I finally told her that I did not have confidence in her wedding coordinator abilities, she would not take my phone calls or respond directly to my text messages. (I would text her and she would text my fiancé a response, even though he was not in the conversation. I had to start including him in the text messages so we would get a response to our questions.
We finally received our deposit for the Belle Rae Venue but Shannon (SHE) refuses to return our $1250 deposit.
Lesson to be learned- I am encouraging anyone who is interested in using the Belle Rae as their wedding venue or Shannon Hough (SHE) as their wedding coordinator to refuse to sign their homemade contract because apparently they can do whatever they please, even when she texted My fiancé that she did not want to be our wedding coordinator because I said that I didn’t have faith in their wedding coordinator capabilities after their huge mix up within 2 days of us signing the contract. She refuses to return our deposit. She is also unprofessional in her communication, and her follow through. We have tried to have a face to face meeting for one last attempt to get our deposit back but she continues to flake at the last minute.

I attended the Valentines Day event this year, it was delightful! The ambiance was very intimate, relaxed, and truly felt indulgent. I'm excited to discover this venue and the ladies behind it. They brought the magic, and after talking with some other people in attendance, apparently that's what they do! The only gripe I have is the bad entrance photo I took, and that's all my fault!
