As a covid bride I had endured my fair share of postponing, rebooking, waiting, hoping, and almost throwing in the towel and giving up celebrating our big day the way we had envisioned. From start to finish Andrew was attentive to every need, and timely in each response to any questions we had. Our planning process with The Finch House was so refreshing. We felt cared for and important. If you're the type of bride that values communication and relationally oriented people book this venue. You will not be disappointed! The beauty of the venue speaks for itself, while the staff and management go above and beyond in customer care and execution.

The setting was intimate and gorgeous. Mirabela was able to work with us to create a ceremony that fit our dream and our budget.

Coley Hall at The Liberty began as a run-down century old Tobacco Warehouse. After being purchased by Elkin native Cicely McCulloch, the space was transformed into a beautiful wedding venue. However, one cannot help but notice the space’s rich history. With an industrial feel, century-old exposed beams overhead, weathered wood, and distressed brick, it’s the definition of rustic elegance and can be tailor-made to fit any style. Keep things simple by utilizing the existing beauty of the space, or dress it up with elegant sheer fabrics draped overhead. Even if you are not DIY savvy, our staff is here to provide inspiration to ensure your vision comes to life!

My husband and I were faced with planning a wedding during COVID-19. How lucky we were to have chosen Coley Hall as our venue. Suzanne and Cicely were both so helpful throughout the whole process. We talked often as regulations changed and they were always flexible, accommodating, and understanding. They made sure that we had the most special wedding day regardless of a global pandemic. The food was awesome, service pristine, and facilities beautiful! We feel so lucky to have gotten married at Coley Hall and were proud to show off our wedding venue to friends & family!

Featuring a stunning six bedroom main house, and two bedroom guest house that doubles as a bridal/honeymoon suite. Wonderful sound views and lots of land to spread out, this property is a must see. About a half hour to both the Outer Banks and the Virginia line, the location is amazing.

This venue was exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful views, lots of entertaining space, room for our closest friends and family and a gorgeous backdrop for our photos. The management was helpful and offered up amazing suggestions for food, photos and decor. We loved the interior of both homes but the main house was stunning enough to have photos taken inside too! We were pleasantly surprised by the clear views of the sound and the sweeping farm land! We only had our closest friends and family but I could see how this home could accommodate larger groups. We are planning a trip in the fall for a long weekend (Airbnb) because we enjoyed our time there so much.

Not only did I not have to really decorate the space because it's SO gorgeous, my guests cannot stop commenting on the magical atmosphere of the ceremony space. It's nestled below a gorgeous 1800's house, along a creek, and is so green and lush in the spring and summer. I bet fall weddings would be stunning too! We got married May 3rd. The owners are the sweetest and so wonderful to work with. I want to relive this day again and again!

305 Trackside 

5.0

Southern Pines, NC
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $350

305 Trackside is an industrial chic event venue located in the Historic Seaboard Freight Depot building in the heart of downtown Southern Pines, NC. Original wood plank floors, exposed brick walls, 6 oversized sliding barn doors, exposed trussed ceilings, 1,500 square feet of open air interior space and over 1,500 square feet of covered outdoor patio space, all make this venue an unforgettable backdrop for any event!

We chose this venue because of location, price, and style. My dad was an engineer for CSX and the location of this venue along with its history made it the obvious choice for us. The venue itself hardly needed any decorations for our wedding; the historical brick and old wooden planked floor were stunning...along with the party lights on the ceiling. Compared to other venues in the area, this venues price was unbeatable. Along with it being cheaper, it gave us more options. We booked the venue the night before the wedding as well which made decorating and rehearsal a BREEZE! We booked the Jefferson Inn through the venue as well so getting ready the day of the wedding was so simple and convenient; after the wedding was over, we headed back to the Inn that was a block away. One major plus of this venue was that it has AMAZING, GORGEOUS BATHROOMS AND A CATERER KITCHEN! You would think this was included at every event venue, but we toured several venues that had no on site bathrooms or place for the food to be prepared. I had soooooo many compliments on the venue; I’ve recommended it to ALL my friends for their upcoming weddings.

Where do you even start with a place like WinMock?! I'm one week post the most incredible, magical wedding day there and I'm still getting emotional thinking about them, their team, the venue, the day....god I am just so freaking grateful. From the first day it just felt like I was working with family. Laura and the entire WinMock team made me feel so special and heard from the start and made my wedding more than anything I could have ever imagined. They were kind and patient with me when I knew nothing about the process and it was evident that mine and my husband's happiness was number one priority. I didn't think they could be any better and then the day of came. Jim, Jen, and the whole staff....they were freaking incredible. They were so much fun and accommodating beyond belief. Everyone there has incredible talent and passion and it is evident in all they do. WinMock will forever be such a huge part of our lives. Our friends, family, and guests have continued to RAVE about how it was the most beautiful wedding venue and place they have ever been (people from multiple different states). I would choose WinMock time and time again, and words can't describe how grateful we are for them.

Working with Separk was super easy from start to finish. We had Hannah as our wedding coordinator and she did a great job with creating and sticking to the timeline. She also did great at setting up our decor items and some flowers we brought to the venue. She was very communicative with us and our bridal party/family so that everyone knew what was expected from them for the ceremony. Overall we had a great experience with Separk and had the most perfect wedding thanks to them!

The Bella Collina Mansion 

5.0

Stokesdale, NC
  • Up to 175 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

The vision of a wedding in Tuscany could not find a more romantic setting than the magnificent Bella Collina Mansion. Here, vows softly rise to the heavens in the historic town of Stokesdale. Built to host intimate gatherings and celebrations for up to 175 guests. Call today to set your appointment. Tuscany's version of Cinderella's Castle!!! We offer our home to be used as a venue for Wedding's, Corporate Events and so much more. Please visit our website at www.bellacollinamansion.com

Where to even begin! When we found this venue, I would say that my husband and I had already toured over 10 other venues before Bella Collina and we had seen a few others that we had liked but none that we were set on that had quite the “wow” factor that Bella Collina has! We were actually just looking through venues and Bella Collina popped up and we read all the reviews and saw the awesome ratings and knew we had to check it out! From the moment we drove up the driveway and set eyes on the venue and the scenery. I knew without a doubt this would be where we would be getting married. The location is just so beautiful and the mansion is exquisite. It was perfect! Erin gave us a tour of the mansion and we instantly fell in love with everything that day. She was super friendly and answered all our questions! My husband and I both agreed that day that it was where we wanted to get married. We soon met the venue owner, Joe, and happily secured our date! Joe and Erin are both super friendly and easy to communicate with. My husband and I were super impressed with how everything was set up and how easily it is to get things scheduled with them. Their communication with us was spot on! They are so easy to work with. Something we really enjoyed was something called “Day of Interviews” where we got to come in and meet some of Bellas preferred vendors and then pick the ones we would like to work with. This helped take away a lot of the stress that lots of other engaged couples have to go through with finding vendors separately. Since our wedding ceremony was planned to be outdoors by the lake, when it came down to the last couple of days before our wedding and we had to make a decision about whether to move the ceremony inside or not because of the weather. Joe was absolutely amazing at making sure that we still got to have our dream wedding by watching the weather and helping us plan accordingly down to the last couple of hours! :) We got to have our first dance out on the balcony overlooking our guests out on the patio, which was breathtaking! All of our friends and family have been talking about it for the past couple of weeks since our wedding. Thanks to Joe, Erin, this amazing venue, and staff we got to have our dream wedding. It was everything we could have ever imagined! You can really tell that they love what they do and it shows. Thank you for helping us have our happily ever after! You really showed us that you genuinely care :) Bella Collina exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond what we could ever have imagined a wedding venue doing. We felt at ease on the day of our wedding in their hands

Say "I do" without breaking the bank or losing your mind over logistics at Euphoriia Garden.

The team delivered our Vision 100%. We had a lot of DIY items stored in labeled boxes and we went over everything and provided a description of what the tables would look like etc and the day off I didn’t have to do anything but focus on being the bride and getting pretty. The energy of everyone on the team was positive and extremely accommodating!! If I didn’t have the answer for where things should go the response was always “don’t worry, we will figure it out!” I would hire them again for my next event! They were also able to provide our photo booth service (last minute bc we decided on it late in the game) and they brought personalized props to fit our theme and personalities. All of my wedding guests complimented them and spoke highly of how organized they were. I made it clear I wanted to start on time (not 1 minute earlier or later) and Demetra did JUST THAT!! I would HIGHLY recommend them! Prior to the wedding day we met at the venue to discuss details and talk through logistics. This made me and my husband feel comfortable and allowed the planners to see everything that needed to be executed. They were running around the entire night so that my bridal party and guests didn’t have to lift a finger and everyone knew where to go and what to do. Thank you again for an amazing experience!!

The Carolina Estate is an amazing venue located just a short drive from RDU, RTP or the Triad. It is the perfect combination of modern elegance and southern charm, a classy aesthetic backdrop for you to create a magical day filled with your own style. The 26 acres of rolling hills, 6 acre pond, and beautifully manicured grounds hold all the possibilities you can image to orchestrate a stunning and memorable wedding of any size. We welcome everyone to The Carolina Estate!

When searching for a venue to host my son's rehearsal dinner I stumbled across The Carolina Estate online. I reached out to the venue and was delighted to learn I was speaking directly with Mrs. Sheila, the venue owner. From the first phone call, I immediately felt such a connection to her and her sincere kindness. I was coming from 4 hours away to have the dinner here and had no idea where to begin with catering or anything else. She was kind enough to send me a vendors list and even put me in contact with a local catering service. She never minded me calling or emailing her with questions and was always available and very knowledgeable. She sent me pics of the Opal room, which is just one of the many rooms they have available and I immediately knew that it was exactly what I was looking for. When I arrived she had the tables arranged as we had discussed and I must say the place blew me away with all of its beauty. It is located on a picturesque landscape with with a beautiful view of a large pond. The room I rented was very adequate for a rehearsal dinner and could accommodate 60 people easily. The ceiling is decorated with beautiful twinkling led lights that are breathtaking at night. The facility is immaculate. Very easy access. It was just perfect and so was the package pricing (very good pricing for such an amazing venue). I am still getting compliments about the dinner and everyone was so impressed with everything about it. If you are looking for a beautiful venue either for your wedding, reception, rehearsal dinner or any other occasion please give The Carolina Estate a chance, you won't be disappointed! Thank you for making our Night Before be something we will remember forever!

Located right outside of downtown Raleigh, you will find The Historic Wakefield Barn. Built in 1934 and renovated in 2017, the barn is a luxury wedding venue in North Raleigh unmatched in its scale and charm. This is the perfect barn wedding venue that can accommodate events large and small! The Historic Wakefield Barn is a National Historic Site that sits on 14 acres – the property includes a bridal suite, horse barn, the main barn and outdoor event spaces. The venue combines the barn’s history with subtle modern touches that result in a unique event space. The property is still an active horse farm, with two horses who live on-site named Mandatory, and Jackson!

The Historic Wakefield Barn was the perfect venue for our wedding day. Their communication throughout the planning process was outstanding - Brent was so helpful and responsive, making the entire experience stress-free. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, with a unique vintage and classy feel that exceeded our expectations. They went above and beyond to make our day special, providing a beautiful custom "Savannah" hanger when we booked the venue and even arranging for horses to be part of our celebration. When it rained right after our ceremony, we were so grateful for the indoor/outdoor capabilities - the team had a seamless rain plan that allowed us to enjoy the rest of the evening indoors. I highly recommend The Historic Wakefield Barn to any couple looking for a stunning, versatile wedding venue.

A fairytale setting, Smithmore Castle offers majestic architecture and breathtaking views. The venue's grand ballrooms and lush gardens provide an opulent backdrop, while the dedicated staff ensures a seamless and memorable wedding experience for couples seeking a regal celebration.

As the mother of the bride, I can genuinely say that my daughter's spring wedding at Smithmore Castle was nothing short of a fairytale. From the moment we arrived, the castle's grandeur and charm took our breath away. The stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains provided a picturesque backdrop that made every photo look like it was straight out of a storybook. The staff at Smithmore Castle were exceptional, attending to every detail with such care and precision that we felt like royalty. The ceremony took place in the beautiful courtyard, where the blooming flowers and elegant statues added a touch of natural beauty to the setting. The gentle sounds of the fountain in the background created a serene and magical atmosphere that set the perfect tone for the day. Inside, the reception was held in the magnificent Great Room, with its marble floors, medieval tapestries, and glittering crystal chandeliers. The three-story granite fireplace was a striking centerpiece that added warmth and a sense of history to the celebration. The castle's chefs prepared a feast that delighted all our guests, blending exquisite flavors with impeccable presentation. The highlight of the evening was when my daughter and her new husband retired to the Royal Tower View Suite. The luxurious accommodations and breathtaking views made for an unforgettable start to their new life together. Smithmore Castle exceeded all our expectations, creating memories that we will cherish forever. It was truly a fairytale wedding come to life.

I LOVE THE BARN AT REYNOLDA in Winston Salem! I'm a wedding photographer and I have shot multiple weddings and events at the Barn at Reynolda, and they have always been amazing to work with. They are kind, make sure that everyone is taken care of and that everything is running smoothly. From a photography standpoint, the fact that the entire barn interior is white makes for the most stunning photos. Brides and grooms can take portraits both inside and out, and I love the bar in the silo during cocktail hour.

The Parker Mill 

5.0

Whittier, NC
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

The Parker Mill wedding venue is a newly-renovated historic sawmill built in the 1930's. This venue has been designed and renovated to specifically cater to essential wedding needs. While it is conveniently located just one mile off of highway 74, the structure is comfortably nestled in a private community in the heart of Western NC Mountains, boasting awe-inspiring views and serene surroundings.

We are SO lucky we found this venue for our wedding! It's been a long time planning - but Alexis was super communicative and responsive for every question in our 20 months of planning. She made all the decisions a breeze and was so detail oriented during our walk through to ensure our vision was received. Our guests were amazed by the venue's beauty and all night we received compliments and "HOW did you find this place?! it's BREATHTAKING"! We just responded with "we know ;)" I will also have to say - having the getting ready suites on site made the whole day even that much more of a breeze. We provided our own food & drink but the Bride's Suite Bathtub is something out of a luxury castle's home. AMAZING photo opportunities! The Groom's suite with pool table, TV, video games & darts was perfect for my partner and his group. Even though there was a wedding there the night before ours - Alexis had everything under control in terms of a rehearsal the morning of our wedding. We all arrived about an hour ahead of official venue access, ran through our rehearsal, and put cars in place to unload when we got to our access time. Her team was top notch - and had all our decor items set up perfectly. I also LOVED that we didn't have to tear down or clean up anything other than what we brought in. I can not put into words how much I recommend this venue for your perfect mountaintop wedding or event. It vastly exceeded our expectations and I hope they keep expanding their venture here in Whittier, NC!!
