I cannot recommend this venue highly enough! From the very start, the owner and her team went above and beyond to make planning stress-free and enjoyable. They were always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and make sure every detail was perfectly executed. Their support and calm presence made a huge difference, especially when I was nervous on the big day. The décor closet was such a wonderful bonus, and when I brought in my own items, they decorated the barn beautifully — it looked exactly like I had imagined. They also provided excellent vendor recommendations, which made planning even easier and more seamless. Our fall wedding was truly magical. The venue is breathtaking, and our guests loved exploring the grounds and meeting the animals. Every single aspect of the day ran flawlessly, and I could not have asked for a more perfect experience. If you’re looking for a venue that is beautiful, well-managed, and run by a team that genuinely cares about making your day unforgettable, this is it.

Amanda and Todd truly made our wedding memorable. All the guests commented on how beautiful their property is. Very professional and easy to work! We toured eight venues before my husband came across their venue and it was a fantastic decision. They have so many options for where you want your ceremony to be held. Fortunately we had perfect weather, but their venue has the best back-up plan to hold a beautiful ceremony indoors if you need to or want to!

This venue was absolutely incredible. Made all of my bridal dreams come true! I don't think you will find a more beautiful barn venue anywhere (and the bridal suite - UNREAL), but that isn't even what did it for us. Lexi and her family were the greatest unexpected blessing. Lexi was so kind to us from the very beginning of choosing Grant Gables as our venue, and working with us as we asked questions and got closer to the wedding day. Her whole family helped us all weekend and we considered them family the whole time. I don't know what I would've done without them, and will be thankful for them every time I look back at my wedding. My husband and I had the most perfect day, and we have Lexi to thank for that.

We believe that celebrating life and hosting is one of the greatest joys imaginable. Our lives take us in so many different directions, that finding the time, much less the space to be together feels impossible. When events can be firmly put on the calendar, you have achieved an amazing feat. Gathering so many people with different lives and schedules for one night is a monumental task. We have an incredibly large family ourselves so every birthday and holiday feels like a massive event. Once you nail down the date, we want to be the space where you can host your loved ones. Where you can share food and drink, and create a memory that will stay with them for a lifetime. We would be honored if you could create those memories with us. We created this space with our family in mind and we hope we can share it with yours

I have photographed with Klarie on numerous occasions, including restaurant photos, family portraits, and photography of her own events. Every time, Klarie has been such a joy to work with and so easy to communicate with, so I have no doubt that clients will be in good hands planning their events here! As a wedding and event photographer, there are many things I look for in a venue which can set it apart as deserving of a recommendation. After touring Suenos, it's very clear that Klarie put a lot of thought and intention into every aspect of the venue's design. Having an outdoor space which is covered is a very smart thing with our NC weather, and having a barn-style indoor space with so many windows allows for beautiful ambient light even when indoors. The indoor bathrooms in the barn are some of the nicest venue bathrooms I've seen, and it's great to have outdoor bathrooms just a few steps away as well. Because the venue is so far off the road and set back against the treeline, the entire space feels very peaceful and secluded, while still being easily accessible. And I absolutely adore the cottage (and it's bathtub!) which would be perfect for getting ready photos. Klarie has an exceptional eye for decor and design, so I love that the spaces can be tailored to fit each of her events. Each of the venue spaces as well as the property itself feels spacious, offers a huge variety of photo backdrops perfect for any season, and has fantastic light both during the day and once the sun has set. I look forward to getting to photograph here!

Our wedding at The Upchurch was truly everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we arrived that morning to get ready, the day felt calm, joyful, and so thoughtfully planned. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. The historic home is full of charm and natural light, the Magnolia Lawn is breathtaking, and the Conservatory is bright, romantic, and timeless. Every part of the day flowed so naturally from the ceremony to cocktail hour and into the reception. It genuinely felt like a fairytale from beginning to end. Booking The Upchurch’s in-house wedding planning service was one of the best decisions I made. Melanie was incredible throughout the entire planning process. She was organized, reassuring, and truly cared about bringing our vision to life. On the wedding day, I worked closely with Heidi, Tara, and Melanie, and they were absolutely amazing. They handled every detail seamlessly, coordinated everything behind the scenes, and made sure the day ran perfectly. Because of them, I never once felt stressed and was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful The Upchurch is and how perfect the entire day felt. The combination of a breathtaking venue and a team that genuinely cares about their couples is something truly special. Choosing The Upchurch was one of the best decisions we made, and we will always be grateful for the role they played in making our wedding day unforgettable.

I'm going to REALLY try to not make this review an entire novel. Cutting straight to the chase BOOK THEM! Chef John and Natasha (and entire team) were exceptional from DAY ONE! Yes the venue is gorgeous, but the people really make the place. They have several packages to book from. I loved having options. I had weekly questions lol, they answered expeditiously, detailed and were never rude (not one time). THE FOOD babyyyy; mouth watering. They provide the wedding party lunch and it's real food not just a sandwich tray. They always said "we make sure our bride and goom eat", and they kept that promise. We ate and we ate good! Our guest were also very happy! Lastly, they somehow have a way of making you feel like you are the only wedding that is going on and obviously that is not the case. Their attention to detail was exactly what we needed. This helped us check things off our box and also recall things that we may have forgotten or not thought about. Based on the excessive use of exclamation points you can tell we were very happy with The Chandelier Wedding & Event Venue. You will not regret booking your event here!

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!

Mini Acres Farm was the perfect venue for our South Asian wedding. Laura was prompt and kind in her communication, and she was very accommodating of our needs, finding the solutions we were looking for. The venue was the first and only one we saw, and we knew it was the one - the magnolia tree, the large swings, the granary, and the fountain add so much character to this already beautiful blueberry farm. The bride and groom's suites were welcoming and had plenty of room for our families to rest and get ready. Ours was a South Asian wedding, and this venue gave us the canvas to make it our own!

Initially, the 62-acre Het Landhuis Estate was part of a 1,000-acre farm owned by the Henderson family who operated a tanyard in the area, making saddles and other leather items. One day a future bride drove past Het Landhuis; she stopped in the main driveway and asked if she could get married there. That conversation changed the course of the estate, and Het Landhuis had its Grand Opening in 2010. Het Landhuis is not your ordinary location for a wedding; this becomes obvious once you visit the grounds and look at the eight different venues the estate offers. Het Landhuis presents you with a magical setting for your storybook wedding!
