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!

The Farm at 95 was probably one of our favorite vendors at our wedding. Not only is the location beautiful but Rachel, the General Manager, went above and beyond for us. Our experience working with her was so easy and stress free. She was very helpful during our wedding and even caught a detail I missed and helped us fix it in the moment. Again the venue is beautiful but there also is so many great features you can utilize as well. The dressing rooms with the private bathrooms were perfect for us getting ready (1 bride, 5 maid of honors, 2 mothers and the makeup artist and hair stylist). I also loved how we had so much flexibility you have for where you do the ceremony. You have the option of the outdoor gazebo for your ceremony (which we ended up using) but you also could have your ceremony inside. Our reception was all done in the banquet hall/outdoor patio. We had a live band and the setup was perfect as there is a nice stage in the banquet hall. We had about 200 people and there was more than enough space. I also will mention the parking lot is more than big enough (parking is something I find very important). Overall we loved working with Rachel and truly had an unforgettable night. She did as much as she could to ensure we had a wonderful time. I don't know where else you could find such wonderful venue that is beautiful with a lot of great features and with someone who cares as much as Rachel!
