As the saying goes, you never have a second chance to make a first impression. Legacy Stables & Events ABSOLUTELY NAILED the FIRST IMPRESSION and every opportunity thereafter. No detail is left untouched. From the very first email less than 24 hours after our first inquiry, to the most hospitable tour with complimentary refreshments and the most delightful tour guide, to the planning, the attention to detail with our contract and every request, all the stunning rentals, and execution of our wedding day, EVERY SINGLE MOMENT WAS PERFECT. The level of service and the focus on client and guest satisfaction is like no other. No other venue in the Triad, and we visited them all, no one had the ambiance and the experience like we had at Legacy. The catering was PHENOMENAL, the food was delicious and the catering team was on point. It was the wedding of our dreams, and so much more. We were even honored to meet the owner, and he went above and beyond to ensure we felt like family. It's evident, the staff takes their lead from him. We were so blessed to have this venue host our special day. Legacy has such a big place in our hearts, we want to revisit every year on our anniversary, just to feel the magic again and again. I have chills just thinking back on our day, so perfect, so dreamy, and so beautiful. Thank you Legacy Stables & Events for everything.

Rosa Lee Manor was an incredible venue for our wedding. Their communication was very quick, whether by email or text, which was so helpful during the planning process. Everything was clean and organized, and the price was very reasonable compared to other places, especially considering all that they offer. They made everything so smooth for us on the day, and we even got a complimentary breakfast basket! It was so convenient that they had a house on the property where we could have both our ceremony and reception. The house sleeps 12, so our bridal party was able to stay with us and get ready there as well. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day.

When my husband and I booked this venue for our wedding, the property was still under construction and existed only as a vision brought to life through renderings. Looking back, I’m so grateful we trusted that vision because we couldn’t have chosen a more perfect location! This venue offers a timeless, romantic setting that truly enhances the vision for your wedding day. Its design, private location, and intimate layout made it the ideal spot for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. What truly set it apart, though, was the incredible team at Lumen House. Our experience with them was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we first toured the property to the final moments of our wedding day, it felt like they were genuinely rooting for us, and they treated us like family.

LUXE marble floor and high ceiling creates a grand and modern look. The huge outdoor covered patio is the most unique in the Charlotte area. Being able to bring your own vendors saves a lot of money on alcohol and gives you control over what you want to do. I think Luxe is the best venue in Charlotte as long as your guest count is under 200.
