Awarded Best of Zola
I'm a wedding planner in the Raleigh area and the Parlour is one of the top venues I recommend to my clients and that I personally use for events. It's a beautiful space but more importantly for my job, the team is top notch. They care deeply about their clients, their space, and the industry at large. They are professional and have a team work ethic which is necessary in the event space. I count it a joy to work at this venue!

Namu offers different areas to rent based on the style and size of your event, and they were extremely flexible in catering to our needs. They handled all the food and drinks for our wedding, which made things so much easier and allowed us to fully enjoy the day. Overall, we feel so lucky we had our wedding at Namu.

Beautiful venue, great service, and exactly what we needed for our big day. If you are like me and have your heart set on an outdoor wedding, this is absolutely the way to go to have a built-in backup plan! Sure enough, it rained through almost our entire reception, but we were able to still be outside and under cover in the arena, where we ended up doing everything from the ceremony to dinner to dancing. We wish we could have used the venue as originally planned (with the ceremony under the beautiful oak tree and dancing on the patio in front of the new outdoor fireplace) but I was so happy to not have to move things completely inside, which we would have had to do at other venues. On top of that, Julia and her husband were great to work with throughout the whole process, they provided and offered a lot of what we needed from tables and chairs to decor, the bridal suite and groom’s suite were wonderful comfortable places to get ready, and the horses added just the right fairytale touch.
