Venue Setting

An intimate, rustic wedding and event venue located deep in the piney woods of Soso, Mississippi because your wedding is more than an event, it is the celebration of the moment your story begins.

Inspired by stories of memories, gatherings, experiences and cherished beginnings. The Gin at Rasberry Greene was created to bring back the familiar feelings of walking into Mama’s house for a warm meal, a quiet moment in Grandma’s garden or the excitement of starting a new adventure - a place of peace, quiet, excitement and of new stories beginning beneath the trees.

"Coming to Rasberry Greene is like back porch sitting witha glass of sweet tea, surrounded by laughter and family." - Monica Donald, RG Bride

You come first, always.

We’re happy to recommend local wedding vendors but we will never take any form of compensation from another vendor in return for recommending their services. We LOVE working with other local vendors but we want to be sure that any recommendations you get from us are based on your unique needs and come from a place of complete honesty and trust.

We ensure that our couples have all the time they need to setup and take down their ceremony and reception decor by allowing extended access to the venue and grounds before and after the wedding. Get in touch for details!

"Rasberry Greene is fantastic! It is the loveliest of settings, nestled among tall pine trees and a beautiful lake. It truly is a vision, and was absolutely perfect for our wedding in October! We were married outdoors, but there are many other options….inside the Gin, out on the deck, amongst the trees, by the lake, etc….the possibilities are endless. What we liked most about Rasberry Greene was that it wasn’t your typical “rustic barn” setting. Instead, it offered the rustic charm but blended it with modern, chic elements. (I absolutely loved all the lighting details in The Gin!) Beyond the beautiful setting, Lauren and Donnie, the owners, are two of the sweetest people!! They were so accommodating, and I could go on for days about how fabulous they are. From the very first time you meet them, you can tell they truly care about the couples that come through their doors and will do anything they can to make sure you have the wedding of your dreams. I’ve never felt so connected to a place in such a short amount of time, and couldn’t recommend this lovely venue enough!" - Dusty M.
