This is the perfect barn wedding venue that can accommodate events large and small!

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.

I'm a wedding photographer based in Raleigh, but my roots trace back to the beautiful state of New Jersey. Photography has been my passion since I can remember, and I'm incredibly grateful to turn that passion into my profession. As a wedding photographer, I have the honor of capturing the most special moments of a couple's life and turning them into cherished memories that last forever. Beyond weddings, I love photographing families and people from all walks of life, freezing moments in time that tell unique stories.

Nicole was a BREEZE to work with from start to finish. She was so attentive from just the first zoom we had. She truly cares so much about every little detail that you want out of your photos & she will go above and beyond until it is met! From booking her for my wedding she did our engagement photos, my bridals, a boudoir session as a wedding gift, and even a little Christmas card session! She’s truly a gem. I will continue to use her for all my photography needs in the future & I truly feel like I have a new sister after working with Nicole! You won’t regret choosing her!

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!

My experience with Reign was amazing. There was no stress when it came to getting quotes and scheduling payments. They were so easy to work with and very communicative. The stylists I had were amazing. I showed them some inspiration photos but communicated that I wasn't sure about some things and they nailed it at my trial. They helped me feel my best on our special day.

Based in Raleigh, Azul Photography brings an artistic eye and unobtrusive style to your wedding day. We take great pride in documenting weddings and utilizing our photo-journalistic backgrounds to create timeless images celebrating your new beginning.

Kathleen and Christobal did a wonderful job for our wedding day. He gave us wonderful insight and great ideas during our event while never imposing an expectation on how or what we should be. We received beautiful authentic moments as keepsakes to cherish and remember for a lifetime. Our challenge now is determining how many photos we can display. Chris was wonderfully professional, adaptable and brought great ideas to the table. My husband and I both felt he had the Je ne sais quoi you want on your wedding day to feel elevated and special. We loved working with him so much, we convinced one of my bridesmaids to book him t for her wedding as well!

Hey there – we're glad you're here. We're a husband-and-wife wedding and portrait photography duo based in Chapel Hill, NC. We photograph weddings in the Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill area and all over the Southeast.

Indie Bird Photo is the greatest of all time- I cannot recommend them highly enough! Above all else, Nate and Emma are both genuinely great people who are an absolute joy to be around on your wedding day (and otherwise.) They photographed our engagement session, our wedding, and even joined us for our rehearsal dinner- and each time, it felt like working with our friends. Most importantly, their professionalism and attention to detail are unmatched. They are both extremely talented, experienced, and they captured our wedding in the most beautifully authentic way. They brought my dream of candid/documentary style/old school film/black and white photos to life with such ease. Nate sent us a sneak peak gallery within 24 hours of our wedding- which legitimately moved me to tears. I was blown away by the way that Nate and Emma shared all of our joy and excitement and documented it all in the most beautifully artistic photos. It was so meaningful to be able to see (and share!) our photos that quickly. Our families/friends/other vendors/my coworkers, etc. cannot stop gushing about how beautiful the photos are- and we've only seen a few! Our wedding day would not have been the same without them, and I cannot thank them enough.

When I finished college, I decided to follow the call of my passion, the classical guitar. I bought a ticket to Spain, birthplace of the instrument and home to a rich and ancient musical tradition. After several years studying alongside some of the world’s greats and honing my performance skills, I began to hear a different call—that of my own roots, the Pacific Northwest—and I knew it was time to continue my travels. Although I have now returned home from Spain, my journey with the classical guitar is only beginning.

I am a wedding coordinator and Ryan has played at several weddings for my couples and he is amazing. Extremely talented and responsive but also punctual and warm. I love working with him and I know you will too!

L'amour Foto 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Wake Forest, NC

I’m Tammy Jean Lamoureux, artist, partner, mother, photographer. In the twenty years that I’ve been taking pictures, photography has been my tool for seeing beauty in the everyday. My hope is to document the biggest moments of people’s lives while also illuminating those small moments of magic that hide in plain sight. The poetry of life is everywhere, and I try to create honest, heartfelt photographs that help us carry a little of that beauty along with us. I believe in the joy of improvisation, the tenderness in awkward moments, and photographs as time machines. Your moments are so precious. I’d be honored to document them.

It's not an exaggeration to say that working with Tammy was everything we wanted and more. While Tammy's work speaks for itself, her talents go far beyond the gorgeous photographs. She instantly makes you feel comfortable and listened to. She captured and memorialized priceless moments we never thought we would get to experience again. Working with her was a joy and a total vibe. We cannot recommend her enough!

Tuuba Tuncer Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Wake Forest, NC

I’m Tuuba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have an MFA from Boston University in visual arts. Photography has been more than a hobby for me. Throughout my life and education, I have often used photography as a medium to explore my artistic endeavors. *pronounced “Too-baa”

We loved working with Tugba so much! From the moment I (the bride) met her I knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did; she was very professional (responsive to communications, patient with the number of questions we had) and accommodating throughout the entire three years that we worked with her as we had to reschedule our wedding TWICE! Tugba has such a wonderful eye and is very experienced; she captured all the key moments that we indicated we wanted captured, and took other photos we didn't even know that we wanted but are so glad that we have. Also, neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Tugba directed us into the best lighting and poses to make sure we looked our best. She and her second photographer were as unobtrusive as possible throughout the event, while still managing to capture some really amazing candid shots that we are going to cherish as much as the posed ones. We do not have the words to express how much we love our wedding photos -- they are gorgeous and every time we look at them we are able to relive our magical day. We would highly recommend Tugba for your photography needs.

At Arbor Films, we tailor our videography packages to capture the essence of your celebration, from the entry Bronze Collection offering a cinematic highlight reel, to the all-encompassing Platinum Collection that documents every moment of your day. Each package is designed with flexibility in mind, ensuring that whether you desire a brief glimpse or a detailed record of your wedding, your film will beautifully reflect your unique love story.

My wife and I were absolutely blown away with the time, care, and detail that Arbor Films put into our wedding. I personally am a video editor by trade, so this was very high on my list of things that NEEDED to be right and we were not disappointed. A huge key to making sure every moment gets captures is having multiple shooters, but that can typically inflate your cost exponentially. Arbor Films does an incredible job at delivering a great product at a competitive value. You can not go wrong with this team.

When I'm not photographing weddings, you'll find me tending my vegetable garden, eating Tex-Mex, rewatching RuPaul's Drag Race and going for hikes around North Carolina & visiting family in New England.

We had an amazing experience with Tom as our wedding photographer! Before the wedding, he was quick to respond to any communication and very intent on making sure he knew what he wanted. At the wedding, he was very professional and went above and beyond every step of the way. He was attentive and captured every special moment. The photos are really amazing and he did an excellent job directing us and our families during the posed photos and capturing candid moments without intruding. He got our gallery to us quickly and the photos were beautifully compiled. We cannot recommend Tom enough!

My name is Jen and I'm the owner of Southern Skies. The name comes from my love of seeing the NC stars on a clear night with its calmness and unfiltered beauty. I've been planning events since I was 16 and been planning professionally since 2014. My goal for Southern Skies is to plan beautiful weddings for amazing couples, help take their stress away and do it with kindness. I'm a true believer that love is love and life is a celebration that always calls for a glass of bubbly! When I'm not planning weddings, you can find me at my laptop with a glass of red wine, brunching with friends or exploring the world.

We found Southern Skies through a friend’s recommendation and we couldn’t have been happier. We worked with Jen and her assistant Laura. They designed a beautiful wedding full of personal details that we never would have thought of - like having a gelato cart for dessert as a nod to Rome, where we met. Jen was very communicative throughout the entire planning process with e-mail updates, answering our questions, and having virtual and in-person meetings. We were planning remotely and could not have pulled this off without Jen and her team. They helped connect us with our fantastic team of vendors, many of whom we probably would not have found without their help. Jen’s thorough planning and hard work made the actual wedding day stress-free and absolutely perfect. We would highly recommend using Southern Skies!

I launched my business full-time in 2020 and have had the privilege of serving over 200 clients since that time, including the most amazing couples on their wedding day!

Last year I was pregnant with my baby boy and wanted some beautiful pictures to remember my pregnancy. Glynnis did an amazing job capturing these memories. We loved the pictures that she took so much we hired her for our wedding! She is very professional and knowledgeable about photography. I highly recommend her if you want beautiful pictures to cherish forever!

Dark Hearts Artistry 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 1
  • Serves Wake Forest, NC

Liz has been a licensed esthetician and makeup artist for nine years now. Before becoming a bridal makeup artist she was a library assistant and dabbled in art for over 10 years! She’s married to the love of her life and a mama to a beautiful baby girl. Liz’s background gives her a unique perspective on each makeup she does, and she loves to keep you laughing! Lashes and laughter that’s all we need! Based in North Carolina, Liz will help you customize the makeup of your dreams!

Liz at Dark Hearts Artistry made my wedding so special with her wit, uplifting energy, and talent. When I first reached out to her, she got back to me quickly and was transparent about her process, pricing, and even gave me an example timeline for the amount of people I was planning to get ready with. She also connected me with a hair stylist who is wonderfully talented at working with naturally curly hair. Liz took the time to get to know me over the year and would remember small details that most people forget, like my dog's name or a show my Autistic sister likes to watch. She is a big proponent of building and maintaining meaningful connections with others––and her makeup is a lovely reflection of this intention. For my wedding, she created a beautiful makeup look that felt lightweight on my skin but still glamorous, taking the details from our makeup trials that felt right and adding her own unique twist. Before starting that day, she said, "I have something in mind that I feel is very you. Do you trust me?" When I looked in the mirror afterward, I saw a reflection of myself that only Liz could enhance. I felt very "me," comfortable in my own skin and (as a person with anxiety) not nervous in the slightest to show my face. Liz, Lyndsay (hair stylist), and Marie (hair/makeup) did a wonderful job at making my bridesmaids and family members look and feel their best while also capturing their inner beauty. While my primarily Latina group can be notorious for being particular, they absolutely loved their hair and makeup. Dark Hearts Artistry was gracious with everyone and put us all in a wonderful, spirited mood!

Poppy Belle Event & Floral Design 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Serves Wake Forest, NC

Hi, I’m Amy, the founder of Poppy Belle Design (PBD). You may remember me as the owner of Knots ‘N Such (KNS) back in my wedding planning days. Historically I did both the beautiful and logistical sides, but I eventually realized that design has always been the object of my affection. (Insert heart eyes here) So I eliminated my planning services (RIP) to make more time for event and floral design.

Absolutely wonderful! I worked with Amy, the owner of Poppy Belle, and could not have been happier. She was so attentive, detail oriented, and just a joy to work with. Great communication during the planning process, and my florals turned out so beautifully. 100% recommend.

When you think of everything your wedding could be thus venue exceeds that. When we entered this venue me and my husband knew it was "the one". The space, the owner, what's included for the pricepoint....well it was everything and more. Once our wedding day came it was seamless. We had a little rain in the morning, but that staff wiped everything down and we were able to have out ceremony on the overlook. Jamie (the owner) kept us on schedule and worked behind the scenes with her staff and my vendors to make sure everything was a dream come true. I cant recommend this venue enough and I wouldn't change a thing.

We have been making party's stand out in a galaxy far far away!

It was meant to be for us to have Sam be the DJ at our nerdy chic wedding. On a sheer whim, we emailed him when it was clear our original plan of "oh we'll just make a few playlists" was absolutely not going to happen. Only 6 weeks out, and he was free on our date *and* had played the venue before! Fast-tracked our consult meetings, worked with us on our timeline for our very short ceremony and reception and overall had great tips and tricks. There were one or two moments during the wedding that were maybe hiccups (including me kicking the plugs out!) but he rolled with it, we rolled with it. He's so personable, everyone loved him - we're all transplants from NJ/ NY and turns out he's practically related to at least one of my family. For sure, would recommend him!

We had a wonderful dinner party Dec 6, 2024 at the Trophy Brewing Morgan Street location! Planning the event with Brittany made for an excellent night. Her quick responses to my many questions and helpful recommendations ensured our party to go off without a hitch. Trophy is known for their pizza, so we were very impressed with how good the alternative entree's were. The apps and entree's were served hot, on time and plenty and desserts to die for. The two room venue was comfortable for our 50 guests and the attentive, friendly and polite staff went above and beyond serving the drinks, apps and attending to our guests needs. We were also very appreciative of Tabatha and the staffs unexpected help for decorative setup and break down and the slide show setup before and after the event. We couldn't have asked for a better experience at Trophy Brewing & Pizza!
