Rockhurst Farm is a 400-acre working farm and event property in Wilsonville, Alabama, situated in Shelby County off Highway 280 East, about 30 minutes from Interstate 459. Originally acquired in 1992 as a personal retreat by Dr. John and Nona Hurst, the land served as a hobby farm where the family farmed and discovered historic artifacts from a native Creek campground and a Civil War camp on the property. After building the Reception Pavilion in 2012 for their daughters' wedding, the Hursts launched Rockhurst Farm Weddings and Events in 2015. The farm is a registered Treasured Forest property with 80 acres designated for weddings and events. Ceremony and reception spaces include the Rockhurst Chapel — a custom sanctuary with 20 white pews seating 200 or more guests with views of an adjacent pond — the open-air Reception Pavilion, and a manicured field centered on a 150-year-old great oak tree that accommodates tent setups for any size event. Nona Hurst brings expertise as a floral designer and master gardener, and Dr. Hurst is a master beekeeper who has maintained bees on the property for nearly four decades. The barn adjacent to the event spaces provides three restrooms (one ADA-approved), two dressing areas, and a caterer's prep kitchen, with all areas ADA-compliant.

Oak Hollow Farm is a family-owned event destination set on over 300 acres in Fairhope, Alabama, on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay. The property traces its roots to the early 1800s, when it operated as a working farm growing cotton, sugar cane, and corn. The land has remained in the same family for six generations, and the farm formally opened as an event venue in 2001. The grounds feature rolling pastures, century-old oak trees, and a signature tunnel of trees draped in white lights — a backdrop well-suited to weddings, corporate retreats, family reunions, and fundraisers. Two dedicated event spaces accommodate gatherings from intimate meetings of 15 guests to full celebrations of up to 300: The Barn, a 6,000-square-foot hall with a bar area, stage, dance floor, and porches overlooking the property, and The Lodge, a 1,200-square-foot gathering space with a fireplace and wraparound porch for smaller events. On-site bunk rooms are available for overnight stays. A staff of ten — primarily family members — operates the farm with an emphasis on personalized Southern hospitality.
