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.

After visiting several venues in the area, we knew The Barn at Blue Rock Farm was going to be our place when we first met Elizabeth. Her genuine and helpful communication style, along with her passion for creating a magical day, was evident from our very first meeting.

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!

We recently hosted a corporate event at this location and couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. The outdoor setting was peaceful, charming, and well maintained, offering a refreshing change from a traditional corporate venue. The open outdoor space created a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that encouraged conversation and connection among our team, comfortably accommodating our group of over 200 guests. The staff were attentive and easy to work with throughout the planning process. This venue provided a unique and memorable backdrop for our event, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an inviting, well-cared for outdoor space for a corporate event.

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!

Chatham Station was the perfect venue for my husband and I. We were on the search for a venue that had an indoor/outdoor feel as well as convenient for our guests staying in downtown Cary. Chatham Station answered all of that. The venue has beautiful garage doors that we kept open throughout our wedding to keep that indoor/outdoor feel during the night. It is located in downtown Cary, which is walkable from the Mayton as well as a short Uber or drive to many hotels in the area. The venue is gorgeous on its own with its natural light and exposed brick and does not need a lot of decor or florals to make it beautiful. We had great communication and service from the owners and the staff of the venue who helped make our day perfect. I couldn’t recommend this venue enough.

We absolutely LOVED our July wedding The Fairview in Raleigh! From the moment we toured the space, the environment was so open and welcoming. We had a good feeling about The Fairview from day 1 and I'm glad we trusted our hearts to lead us. We initially decided to book the Fairview as our reception location and booked a separate park venue for our wedding location. Since the Fairview's connected business Themeworks does item delivery, set up and break down, we got a contract with them to deliver chairs and other decor to our first location. Regardless of our plans, there was absolutely no pressure or predatory pricing tactics used throughout the process (unlike some of their competitors such as Wakefield Barn). Every rental price was fair and every decision we made was met with excitement! The day before our big day, a major storm hit and the Fairview was ready to accommodate! We ended up having both our wedding and reception at the Fairview and I'm genuinely grateful to all of the staff for making this last minute huge shift possible! The staff showed up earlier, helped flip the space, and provided a level of reassurance that will always be appreciated. While the whole staff was terrific (even the owner!), our coordinator Casey was absolutely amazing! From the moment we toured, she was ready and willing to talk details, brainstorm, and provide solutions to make our vision a reality! We were supported, encouraged and genuinely had such a great time talking and planning with Casey. As a project manager, it's no exaggeration to say that Casey and the Fairview staff were the best vendors I've ever worked with. Even down to adjusting my dress before I walked down the aisle, they were on top of EVERY single detail. The entire team at The Fairview consistently went above and beyond and made our special day absolutely perfect. If you’re considering venues in Raleigh, you have to go check out the Fairview and ThemeWorks. Bring your imagination and get ready to be surrounded with positivity and love! Congrats new couples!!

This space isn't the best fit for weddings and receptions but our venue Maywood Hall & Garden just across town is a good alternative if you are searching for that! This is our original Trophy Brewing Company location that housed our first brewing program. After several years of continued growth we began renovations in 2019, adding more dining space to allow large groups to join us in their celebrations, expand the kitchen, and create the Foeder room to launch our wild and sour beer program.

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!
