    This venue comes with everything, space enough for all your guests, heaters in the winter, month of coordinator, a pre-vetted vendor list, etc. This venue made planning my wedding a breeze, I would absolutely recommend it to anyone.

    Planning a wedding is hard enough, but in the midst of a pandemic it was more than overwhelming. Every time I called for reassurance Sommer answered the phone. Every email was answered so quickly and immediately eased our worries. We’ve said countless times since our day that we don’t know what we would’ve done if we choose any other venue besides Providence Cotton Mill. They don’t just host your event, they plan it with you every step of the way.

  • The BEST experience!

    Having my wedding at The Providence Cotton Mill was the best choice I could have made. Planning a wedding is no easy task, but planning one during a pandemic is even crazier. I could not have asked for a better experience, communication, and kindness while planning and re-planning. Sommer, Ethan and their staff were amazing to work with, and made our day absolutely perfect despite all of the challenges. I had guests raving about our day and how smoothly everything went. I even had friends saying they were highly considering getting married here in the future because our day went so well. I could not recommend them enough!!
