We rented the Victorian for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding day! I highly recommend this to anyone, Brian was so willing to work with us and having the venue on Friday allowed us to bring everything in on Friday so that Saturday flowed so smoothly! Brian was extremely good about emails and communication all the way through our process. He answered all of our questions, gave wonderful suggestions, and also worked with us to allow our day to really be our day! We don't live in NC yet we were able to have facetime tours and make arrangements to see the venue in person many times throughout our process. This was so valuable to me and really helpful in planning a wedding from far away. I can't speak enough about the beauty of the house and entire property! There were so many beautiful spaces for photos and for guests to enjoy. The house itself is a work of art and having so many rooms and fun spaces made for a cocktail hour with something for everyone (indoor seating, porch rocking chairs, yard space, standing room, etc). The entire flow of the day was perfect for us and our guests. The getting ready spaces are TO DIE for. The bridal suite is beyond beautiful and has plenty of space for everyone's stuff food dresses beautiful space for photos. Having two full rooms was so valuable. We had 9 girls getting ready The grooms suite is great for guys - they also have 2 rooms which is so rare to find but gave them plenty of space to move around, play games, eat, and get ready!

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 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.
