About this venue

The McAlister-Leftwich House is a historic property located in Greensboro, NC. Nestled right outside of downtown, the property holds two historic homes, McAlister and Leftwich. Between the two homes there is an on site Bridal Suite and Grooms Suite, multiple indoor and outdoor ceremony and reception locations, and options for intimate weddings or larger celebrations. We worked hard to uphold the historic integrity of both homes for our guests to enjoy. We think you will love the charm and beauty of the McAlister-Leftwich House!

    I loved the look and feel of the McAlister Leftwich House so much, I didn’t mind having to choose my caterer and coordinator from their required list. This is something I didn’t initially want to do, but everything turned out well and the staff was very accommodating.

  • McAlister is just the BEST!
