A Gathering Place

Our Story


Originally home to Christopher Glenn, Inc., a beloved antique and garden boutique, this property was acquired in 2016 with the vision of creating an event venue and a true gathering place. The owner chose to preserve the original name and the stunning European lion fountain left from the previous owners.

Christopher Glenn is full of charm and character from the crawling fig to boxwoods and the beautiful pebble courtyard with both indoor and outdoor spaces.

We hope you feel an immediate sense of warmth when you enter and we look forward to hosting your next event!

Client Reviews

  • Danielle R.

    We had our rehearsal dinner at Christopher Glenn for about 45 people and it was perfect! We had lots of extra room outside as well. We really loved working with Susan, and also had our wedding at The Farrell. We love this pair of venues and 100% recommend to any bride or couple looking for a great vendor experience and a beautiful venue!

  • Robbie E.

    This gorgeous venue and hidden gem in the heart of downtown Homewood is the best place to host any smaller and more intimate gathering. I have planned a couple of corporate dinners here in the last couple of years, and it is the perfect layout for cocktail hour in the courtyard and dinner inside. When booking this venue, you will also get to work closely with Susan, who is amazing and the definition of excellent customer service. She cares about this venue and everyone that walks through it's doors. Could not recommend her and this venue enough!

  • Sherry T.

    Absolutely amazing venue! Susan is truly the best vendor we had throughout our wedding. We heard so many compliments from guests about this venue and we adored it as well.

  • Catherine R.

    My husband Marcus and I just got married a couple of weeks ago and we hosted our reception at 2713 Christopher Glenn. It could not have been a more beautiful place or beautiful experience. Susan was amazing to work with. The architecture, the courtyard, the interiors and everything about the place is truly magical. We highly, highly recommend hosting an event here.
