The Mansion

Our HISTORY

1803

In 1803 the property in the village of Greensboro was purchased with the intentions of it becoming the location of the University of Georgia campus.


1809

The University of Georgia was ultimately built in Athens, where it stands today, and the unused lots of land were sold off to a private owner who built a mill that sits directly behind the mansion.


1810

Once the mill became prosperous the first building was built at The Wildflower 301, and the house was later expanded on, creating a proper Southern Manor.

TODAY

Today the 5,000 sq foot Estate sits on 2 acres of English style gardens offering on-site accommodations, alongside an additional 7,000 sq foot Wedding Venue that sits on the property amongst the bourbon gardens, first look platform, a private 2 story Newlywed’s Cottage, and Magnolia terrace.

HI, I’M SHAUNA

It is so wonderful to meet you! I am the owner of The Wildflower 301 and would be so honored to be the host to your beautiful wedding.

I am a lover of all beautiful things and beautiful art. I believe in the power of an incredible experience and have made it one of my life’s goals to create space for others to have a transcendent experience.

I believe in going above and beyond.
I believe in excellence and integrity.
I believe in leaving things better than you found them.

There are always so many hurdles when it comes to renovating but it is a labor of love and so satisfying to see an old dilapidated piece of history become new and beautiful and shiny again.

I never went to school for business or marketing or real estate but I have a lot of passion and I guess found that I have a bit of a knack for it.

The owners have brought every bit
of southern charm, beauty and
service to The Wildflower 301
here in Greensboro, Georgia.

The Wildflower 301 is the not-so-little sister venue to the wildly successful Grand Ol’ Barn in New Smyrna Beach Florida. I threw my heart and soul into renovating The Grand Ol’ Barn and did my best to solve as many problems as possible when it came to a barn venue. We opened to a large and eager tribe of brides and have SO much fun serving them.

These venues are known for their one of a kind charm, incredible amenities, historical value and a staff that takes care of brides and their guests from the very first email to the very last dance.
