Rodman Plantation (Palatka): A vast, 6,000-acre cattle and timber plantation that offers a true country atmosphere. It’s an off-the-beaten-path venue with a lot of rustic charm and space.
n 1903, H. S. Cummings built the original house that is still on the property today. During the last 100 years, the home has seen a number of transitions while lasting through them all.
Today the Rodman House, or “The Big House” as we call it, has been restored to it’s grandeur glory and includes 5 bedrooms, large social rooms, a large kitchen, and plenty of space to relax in the wide open North Florida country that surrounds. It is the heart of an almost 6,000 acre working cattle and timber plantation and has the capabilities of handling large scale events without concern for noise or traffic congestion
Some of the features that have been added over the years include large walk in coolers, a large storage building, a 52 x 42 covered pavilion, public restrooms, and a large caterer’s kitchen.

This is super helpful! I’ve been looking into Florida venues and didn’t realize there were so many styles beyond the beach.
hanks for your comment, Bethany! That’s exactly why we love creating these guides. While the beaches are beautiful, Florida has such an incredible variety of venues. Rodman Plantation, in particular, really showcases that classic, southern charm with its picturesque grounds and elegant atmosphere. It’s so rewarding to see couples discover places like this that perfectly match their vision. As a videographer, I’ve found that these unique, non-beach locations offer a different kind of magic, providing a timeless and romantic backdrop for a wedding film. I’m glad we could help you in your search!
