We make planning easy with our flexible F&B packages and convenient on-site amenities.

My wedding was this past December, and I had been looking for a hotel to accommodate my family and friends. The Hyatt House in Morrisville was the perfect spot. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly and even handed out gift bags to our guests. The event coordinator, Brett, is absolutely fantastic to work with. He is not only professional, but extremely kind and responsive. I am a big fan of Hyatt in general, but this experience just really solidified everything about Hyatt I already like. The hotel lobby area/bar was the perfect spot for the family to informally gather during the wedding weekend and the variety in breakfast day to day was also an added bonus. If you area looking for a spot to host your family and friends then definitely consider this hotel!

Melrose Knitting Mill

  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

The restored Historic Melrose Knitting Mill is a three-story brick mill, nestled in downtown Raleigh. The venue boasts exposed bricks, rough cut beams and twenty-four arched windows, providing an abundance of natural light. After opening one of Downtown Raleigh’s most vibrant restaurants on the ground level, creative director Samad Hachby renovated the third-story space to accommodate the larger weddings, special events, and parties that his restaurant was being sought after to host. Today, the Historic Melrose Knitting Mill sits perched high atop 309 N. Dawson Street welcoming guests to a true destination within the heart of the city.

The Melrose was an amazing choice for a wedding reception venue. First off, Southern Oak was fabulous since they are involved with the Melrose. Second, I heard the waitstaff was amazing all evening, and the food superb. I was incredibly amazed with how well the steaks were cooked despite them being the most requested meal. I also loved how the venue shown and glittered. I am truly in awe of how beautiful the space was. Southern Oak Events was also incredible on top of it! Loved having Nicole there for me through the process. This did not disappoint!

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.

Set on a serene organic farm in rural Mebane, NC, the Pavilion offers couples an intimate, romantic outdoor setting for their special day near the Triangle and Triad. · Soak up the natural beauty on our working organic farm · We offer a full-weekend, overnight package during the most beautiful Spring and Fall seasons of the year · Host up to 150 guests for a ceremony in the intimate cedar grove or under 120-year-old pecan tree · Host the wedding party on-site in three-bedroom Cottage and three-bedroom Farmhouse · 2,200 square foot Farmhouse includes large kitchen and ample indoor living room as well as dedicated getting-ready space for couples · Groom’s Suite lounge opens onto second-story deck with views of the farm · Spend your wedding night in our gorgeous Honeymoon Suite · Access period begins Friday at 4pm allowing plenty of time for rehearsal dinner and ends Sunday at 12pm · Set-up and break-down of tables and chairs is included

The Pavilion at Nick's Road made our wedding venue dreams come true. We were initially attracted to the venue because we had many out of town friends in our wedding party, so the fact that they could stay on site made the entire weekend an experience instead of just one quick day. Catherine was such a pleasure to work with and I felt very supported by her at every turn. The venue and land itself is absolutely gorgeous, quiet, and peaceful. We were able to have the fire going at night after all of the wedding shenanigans so that our guests could relax instead of being "kicked out by 10" like other venues. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. If we made one right choice throughout the whole wedding planning process, it was to choose this venue. Thank you for a perfect weekend!
