“When I called Atkinson’s Farm to plan a wedding in just seven weeks because my daughter’s fiancé was being deployed to Japan, I was overwhelmed and unsure if it could even be done. Eddie didn’t laugh or hesitate—he simply said, “Let’s make this happen.” From that moment on, he delivered. His guidance, checklists, and constant communication made an incredibly stressful situation feel possible and supported. Eddie’s team—Tara, Dougie, and Wendy—were just as amazing. Tara was more than a coordinator; she was compassionate, calming, and fully invested in making sure our family felt cared for. We truly could not have done this without her. Dougie worked behind the scenes like magic, efficiently setting up and tearing down with ease, and Wendy handled the bar flawlessly—even with our lively crowd. The property is beautiful, and having the wedding party stay on‑site the night before meant more than words can express. The lodge and cabin are stunning, the food was absolutely incredible (we received so many heartfelt compliments), and even with an impending ice and snowstorm, my daughter and son‑in‑law had the wedding of their dreams. If you’re looking for a venue that shows up for you—not just in perfect conditions, but when life is happening fast and emotions are high—Atkinson Farms is it. We will always be grateful. Highly recommend.”

Experience Oakhaven

Pelham, NC
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $8,500

Just north of Greensboro, North Carolina, sits Oakhaven, nearly 1,400 rolling acres of countryside, anchored by a stately English manor with a history all its own. We'd love to add your story to it. Here's what we tell people who ask what makes this place different. You wake up here, walk out from the manor, and the view just doesn't quit, green pastures rolling on for as far as you can see, cattle grazing in the distance, your reception barn just below, and our oak tree standing at the bottom of the hill, older than anyone can say for certain, waiting for the two of you to say your vows beneath it. Ceremony, reception, getting-ready spaces, a place to stay the night. It's all here, on the same gorgeous property, so nobody has to rush off at the end of the evening. We built this place so every guest feels at home the moment they arrive, without losing an ounce of its polish. Come experience Oakhaven, and let's get you to "I do."

  • Bridal suite on site
  • Has a relaxed and casual vibe
  • Allows pets

“Experience Oakhaven exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Jeanette and Elizabeth were incredible to work with—they answered every question right away and went over the top for every request we had. The venue itself is stunning with plenty of space for our ceremony, reception, and all the little details we wanted. What really stood out was how pleasant the entire staff was. Everyone we met greeted us with a smile and made us feel so welcome. We can't recommend Experience Oakhaven enough for couples looking for a venue with both an amazing space and a team that genuinely cares about making your day special!”
