The Ballroom

We enjoy seeing couples creatively make the space their own on their special day!

With soaring ceilings, riverside light, beautiful details throughout, three floors, decks and a courtyard, the award winning Haw River Ballroom is a flexible space created to accommodate your needs and wishes. Weddings have taken place on every level, on the main stage, on the mezzanines, on the deck, as well as outside in our neighboring River Amphitheater*. Occasionally the Wedding itself takes place offsite and we host the Dinner and Party. Saxapahaw is a beautiful historic village that has undergone a transformation into a destination location nestled along the gorgeous Haw River with beautiful nature all around, trails and scenic farms surrounding the village center’s historic mill houses and mill buildings. The Ballroom is located right beside river with numerous locations for unforgettable pictures, experiences and memories.

As the weather gets more unpredictable, the Ballroom can offer a safety zone all year round. Don’t worry about weather on your big day. And our systems are running on geothermal and solar power - an investment that was important to us.
