This venue was exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful views, lots of entertaining space, room for our closest friends and family and a gorgeous backdrop for our photos. The management was helpful and offered up amazing suggestions for food, photos and decor. We loved the interior of both homes but the main house was stunning enough to have photos taken inside too! We were pleasantly surprised by the clear views of the sound and the sweeping farm land! We only had our closest friends and family but I could see how this home could accommodate larger groups. We are planning a trip in the fall for a long weekend (Airbnb) because we enjoyed our time there so much.

The Historic Wakefield Barn 

5.0

Raleigh, NC
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $8,500

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 Historic Wakefield Barn is a National Historic Site that sits on 14 acres – the property includes a bridal suite, horse barn, the main barn and outdoor event spaces. 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.

The Upchurch 

5.0

Cary, NC

  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,200

Combining historic charm with modern amenities, The Upchurch offers a versatile space for weddings. The venue features elegant interiors and beautiful outdoor spaces, providing a sophisticated backdrop for any celebration. Personalized service ensures a unique and unforgettable wedding.

The Upchurch was the best venue to get married at. It all started with the tour with Hannah. She was ready to answer any and all questions we had about the wedding day. She was very down to earth and hilarious to help ease our nerves as we started the wedding planning process. Throughout our planning period, Hannah and Cara were very responsive and helpful to coordinate all the details. We were thrilled with the venue itself. It was naturally beautiful and well manicured. We liked the flexibility of using both the indoor and outdoor spaces. The conservatory was a great spot for both our ceremony and reception, and we loved having cocktail hour at the house while they prepped for the reception. We are so happy with our choice to get married at the Upchurch!
