From the reviews
My friends were married and had their reception there. It was just perfect and the Dupree catering staff took amazing care of us (also had the best shrimp and grits of my life!!)
This is a fantastic venue with excellent food, service and staff. I have enjoyed Dupree Catering services at three events this year! I've attended two on-site events and both were outstanding. My in-laws celebrated their 50th Anniversary on site and I've recently attended a lovely Christmas Party with live music here.
Was there for a wedding for a friend. Beautiful garden area for outdoor venue. Walkway a little uneven which created a challenge for seniors or handicapped but overall a perfect location for an Intimate ceremony. The garden setting allowed for an inviting ambience.
We loved having our wedding at Senate’s End! Their team was so helpful to us throughout the planning process. They were very accommodating and had a solution to all of our questions. The grounds were beautiful and the food was delicious! The staff was so kind and made the wedding day very easy on us.
Getting married at Senate's End
Senate's End comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
