Building the first component of what would eventually become Naylor Hall for H.W. Proudfoot and his wife, Euphemia, in the 1840s, Barrington King designed it as a four-room clapboard house with a central fireplace, which was later expanded. Mr. Proudfoot was engaged as an accountant by Mr. King, the son of the city of Roswell's founder, in his recently constructed Roswell Mills facility. Colonel Harrison Broadwell acquired the property in the late 1930s and renamed it Naylor Hall in honor of his wife's family, which is still the name of the building today. Aside from that, he made a number of changes that may still be seen today, including the columns, carved woodwork, and a portico that wraps around the original structure. Naylor Hall is still making history today, well into the twenty-first century, with each and every event that takes place on Canton Street. Lady Naylor Hall, who is 170 years old and a southern beauty, has had her tummy tucked and her thighs tucked in order to greet the millennium. Your special day will be planned with meticulous attention to detail amid the elegance of a beautiful historic house.

Bear Claw Vineyards is a female-owned winery and working vineyard situated at 1,832 feet elevation in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia. Founded on the principle of pairing top-quality estate wine with a soothing, restorative setting, the property sits on rich alluvial plain soil selected after careful research to support quality viticulture — grapes grown on-site are produced and bottled into the vineyard's own wines. The relaxed, mountain atmosphere extends to the full property experience: guests are welcome to explore the vineyard, gather around fire pits, play cornhole and board games, and listen to complimentary live music offered every Friday through Sunday year-round. Food truck events are held regularly, and the vineyard is dog- and child-friendly throughout.
