The Toccoa House Properties Difference

As a wedding venue in Blue Ridge for couples in Alafaya, FL, Toccoa House Properties is simply magical, where the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains meets the country-chic vibes of modern Appalachia. It has a distinctly custom-built feel, and for good reason. Nearly every inch of the property - from the luxurious cabins within walking distance of one another to the heated pool and more - was purpose-built for exceptional events, like weddings in Blue Ridge.

It all started when Oregonian Greg Spencer initially discovered the Blue Ridge area on a backpacking trip to the Cohutta Wilderness in the 1980s. A short time later, enamored of the area, Greg embarked on a land-purchasing mission that led him to 17 acres of undeveloped acreage. Amazed by the beauty of the Toccoa River and the inspiring views of the surrounding mountains, Greg wasted no time in securing what is now known as Toccoa House Properties.

Today, Toccoa House Properties exists as a one-of-a-kind, highly sought-after event space and wedding venue. As a family-owned and operated business, we take pride in putting on fairytale weddings for you and your guests. In fact, our unique location and commitment to personalized wedding services are what separate us from other wedding venues in North Georgia.

Simply put, we aren't afraid to go "above and beyond" for wedding clients. If you need assistance or advice, you can rest easy knowing that our team will answer your calls - not an automated answering machine or third-party service.

A Step-by-Step Guide for Choosing Your Wedding Venue in Blue Ridge for Couples in Alafaya, FL

At the end of the day, we want your wedding to be the very best that it can be - which is why we're happy to provide some time-tested tips for selecting a location for your wedding.

step-one

Choose Your Style of Wedding

When selecting a venue for your wedding, it's important to take into account the overall look and atmosphere you wish to achieve. Your chosen wedding style will determine which venues are most suitable for you and your partner.

Some popular styles to consider may include:

  • Traditional
  • Whimsical
  • Romantic
  • Rustic
  • Fantasy
 Wedding Packages Alafaya, FL
step-two

Pick a Wedding Date and List of Wedding Venue Choices

What time of the year do you want to get married? Once you have an idea of a season, like fall or spring, come up with a list of potential of wedding venues in Blue Ridge, GA, like Toccoa House Properties.

Keep in mind the following:

  • Guest Count
  • Wedding Budget
  • Wedding Style
 Indoor Reception Areas Alafaya, FL
step-three

Schedule a Tour

One of the most important steps involved in choosing a wedding venue is to tour the space. Don't be afraid to ask pertinent questions. If the venue manager seems like they have better things to do than answer your questions, look elsewhere.

Make sure you take into account:

  • Size of Wedding Venue
  • Ambiance of Wedding Venue
  • Layout of Wedding Venue
 Alafaya, FL
step-four

Consider Services and Amenities

Once you narrow down your wedding venue choices, consider the amenities and services the venue offers. Be sure to weigh what they offer against your needs and budget to further narrow down your choices.

Consider services and amenities such as:

  • Lodging
  • Ceremony and Reception Space
  • Seating
  • Day-Of Coordinator
Wedding Venue Alafaya, FL
step-five

Determine the Location of Your Wedding Venue

If you think your guests will hate a particular wedding venue location, why consider it in the first place? Choosing a destination - like Toccoa House Properties - that is within a short driving distance of grocery stores and restaurants is almost always better than a hard-to-access venue.

 Onsite Wedding Chapel Alafaya, FL
step-six

Check Out Wedding Venue Reviews

Do yourself a favor and check out the wedding venue's Google reviews and reviews on other platforms. You can also ask for opinions from people you trust, like friends and family members. Don't be afraid to reach out directly to people who have used the wedding venue previously. A wedding venue in Blue Ridge for couples in Alafaya, FL, should be excited to show you their online reviews. If you notice a disparaging review, try asking the owner of the wedding venue to explain their side of the story before writing them off completely.

 Walking Trails Alafaya, FL
step-seven

Compare Wedding Venues and Choose

Try coming up with a list of pros and cons of each wedding venue that you're considering. Doing so can help you whittle your list down to one or two choices. Remember to trust your gut throughout this process. If you've come down to two choices, and something about one of the venues rubbed you the wrong way, it's probably for a reason.

Features to consider when choosing your wedding venue may include:

  • Location
  • Amenities
  • Price
  • Reviews
  • Tour
  • Lodging
  • Accessibility
  • Attractiveness of Wedding Venue
 Wedding Packages Alafaya, FL
step-eight

Confirm and Plan

Once you've settled on a wedding venue, it's time to book! As most wedding venues will tell you, try booking your venue at least a year before your wedding is set to take place. Doing so will give you plenty of time to plan. If you need help preparing, don't be afraid to work with a professional wedding planner to make your life easier.

Some items to plan for may include:

  • DJs or Entertainment
  • Caterers
  • Decorations
  • Attractions
  • Bridal Showers
  • Bachelor Parties
  • Post-Wedding Parties
 Indoor Reception Areas Alafaya, FL

The Premier Wedding Venue in Blue Ridge, GA

Florida has become a destination spot in recent years, but some cities stand out.

For the past decade, the website Livability has been compiling an annual list of the best places to live in the United States. This year, four cities in The Sunshine State made the cut.

Unlike other common lists, Livability only includes cities with populations between 75,000 and 500,000. Most people looking to relocate are aware of the best and worst big cities, so this list includes more “underrated” options.

To compile their list, Livability partnered with Applied Geographic Solutions (AGS) to create a variety of categories: amenities, economy, education, environment, health, housing & cost of living, safety, and transportation. There is also a general ranking based on the “Liv Score,” which combines most factors into a general numeric score.

Johns Creek (Georgia), Flower Mound (Texas), and Carmel (Indiana) made top 3 in the Liv Score category. Four Florida cities made the list as well, with St. Petersburg (#44), Alafaya (#46), and Fort Lauderdale (#47) placing in the top 50. Orlando came in at #92.

For Amenities, Fort Lauderdale scored the highest of all Florida cities across the board, coming in at #3 after Jersey City and Clifton, both in New Jersey. St. Petersburg (#11), Alafaya (#32), and Orlando (#34) all placed in the top 40.

Four Florida cities scored in the top 50 for Economy, with Fort Lauderdale coming in at #21, Alafaya at #31, St. Petersburg at #32, and Orlando at #49.

The top 3 spots were taken by Broomfield (Colorado), and Georgia’s Johns Creek and Roswell.

In the Education category, Columbia (Maryland), Overland Park (Kansas), and Clifton (New Jersey) took the top three spots, respectively. Alafaya, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, and St. Petersburg took places #50, #79, #85, and #90, respectively.

Environment housed four Florida cities as well, however Alafaya, Orlando, St. Petersburg, and Fort Lauderdale took the last spots on the list. The top three spots were claimed by Elk Grove (California), as well as Hillsboro and Beaverton, both in Oregon.

Three cities also scored in the last percentile for Health, with St. Petersburg coming in at #75, Fort Lauderdale at #89, and Orlando at #98. The three top-scoring cities were Rochester Mills (Michigan), Johns Creek (Georgia), and Fishers (Indiana).

St. Petersburg took a spot in the top 50 for Housing and Cost of Living arriving in 28th place, with Alafaya and Orlando taking spots at #58 and #67, respectively. Knoxville (Tennessee), Des Moines (Iowa), and Orem (Utah) claimed the top spots.

Besides Health, Rochester Mills (Michigan), Johns Creek (Georgia), and Fishers (Indiana) also scored the top spots for Safety. Alafaya, St. Petersburg, Fort Lauderdale, and Orlando were placed in the Safety category in places #58, #78, #89, and #97, respectively.

Finally, Orlando made the top 20 cut for Transportation, coming in at #18. St. Petersburg was among the top 50, placing at #44. Ft. Lauderdale and Alafaya came in at #80 and #84. North Carolina scored the two top spots in the category with Asheville and Cary, with Overland Park (Kansas) coming in at number three.

HCA Florida Healthcare has started construction on a new $13.5 million freestanding emergency room in east Orlando.

The Florida division of Nashville, Tennessee-based HCA Healthcare Inc. (NYSE: HCA) began work at 1434 N. Alafaya Trail in Orlando on the new facility that is affiliated with Oviedo Medical Center. It will have 11 exam rooms, along with imaging technology like CT scan, digital X-ray and ultrasound.

HCA expects the facility will provide service to an area covering 300,000 residents, hire 40 people and open in spring 2024. The general contractor is Sevalus.

New freestanding emergency rooms create high-wage jobs and opportunities for construction contractors, vendors, suppliers and more. The facilities also offer faster, more convenient urgent health care and diagnostics for patients.

HCA Florida Healthcare includes 650 sites of care statewide with 11,000 doctors and 79,000 employees. The system serves more than 6.4 million patients per year.

Its local hospitals include the 404-bed HCA Florida Osceola Hospital in Kissimmee, the 221-bed HCA Florida Lake Monroe Hospital in Sanford, the 76-bed HCA Florida Poinciana Hospital, the 64-bed Oviedo Medical Center and the 64-bed UCF Lake Nona Hospital in partnership with UCF.

HCA's existing freestanding ERs in Central Florida include Baldwin Park ER, Airport North Emergency, Millenia Emergency and Hunter's Creek Emergency, all in Orlando, as well as Heathrow Emergency in Sanford, HCA Florida Mount Dora Emergency in Mount Dora and ChampionsGate Emergency in ChampionsGate.

Other HCA freestanding ERs in the works include:

Meanwhile, the American Institute of Architects’ (AIA) Consensus Construction Forecast panel found that health care has been one of the few sectors that saw gains throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. "While utilization rates increased during the pandemic, more fundamentally, national demographics point to continued gains in health care spending as the aging baby boom generation will ensure a continued increase in spending on health care services," the report stated.

The AIA Consensus Forecast Panel predicts growth of 10% for health care construction spending for 2023 compared to last year, and a 3% growth for 2024 over the year.

What influences the cost of gutters in Alafaya?

The cost of your new gutters depends on roof size, number of stories, gutter material, number of downspouts and any landscaping requirements. Most homes require 150 to 200 linear feet of gutters. Multistory buildings or complex roofs need more.

Gutter material is the biggest factor determining how much you'll pay. A long-lasting material such as copper, steel and zinc will cost more than PVC or vinyl. Zinc and copper also tend to cost more for labor, because they're more difficult to install.

When you contact a gutter company, they'll send a representative to examine your existing gutters and give you a free quote. They'll explain the factors and services contributing to your new system's total cost and respond to any inquiries you may have.

How do you save money on your Alafaya gutter installation?

Replacing gutters gets pricey quickly, especially if your home is large or your old system has extensive damage. To save money:

Wahlburgers closes final remaining Florida location, at Waterford Lakes

Wahlburgers, the restaurant chain started by Mark, Donnie and Paul Wahlberg, is leaving the Orlando area, due to the coronavirus pandemic, the restaurant said in a social media post on Friday."Dear family and friends: Our Wahlburgers location in Orlando at Waterford Lakes has served its final burger," said the post. "We’ve made some wonderful memories and will sincerely miss each and every one of...

Wahlburgers, the restaurant chain started by Mark, Donnie and Paul Wahlberg, is leaving the Orlando area, due to the coronavirus pandemic, the restaurant said in a social media post on Friday.

"Dear family and friends: Our Wahlburgers location in Orlando at Waterford Lakes has served its final burger," said the post. "We’ve made some wonderful memories and will sincerely miss each and every one of you."

It was the second Orlando (or Florida) location for the burger brand. The Waterford Lakes restaurant on N. Alafaya Trail, opened in 2017 following the downtown store's opening in 2016. That downtown Church Street location closed for good less than a month ago.

The post also says, "We look forward to seeing you all again at one of our other restaurants in the future" — but the closing of the Waterford Lakes location means your next Wahlburgers visit won't be in Florida.

You can follow the burger brand on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Their food is expensive.

The company's website says there are no other Florida locations, except for a location "coming soon" in Key West, which could well be nixed by now, too.

With the closure, Wahlburgers says, "Say bye to your mother for me" to the entire state of Florida.
