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!

The Catlett Farm was the perfect venue for our intimate wedding. The rustic charm of the barn, coupled with its simple elegance, created a stunning backdrop that required minimal decoration. The decor closet was a lifesaver, saving us both time and money. The open houses were incredibly helpful in our planning process. The entire Catlett Farm team was exceptional. Their communication was top-notch, the planning spreadsheet was a valuable tool, and their staff was fantastic to work with. Their professionalism and helpfulness made our entire wedding experience truly unforgettable. Our favorite moment was our private dance at the end of the night. The feeling of pure joy and satisfaction was indescribable. The venue was beautiful, and our taco truck was a huge hit with our guests. We received countless compliments on both.

The outdoor space and barn with the twinkling ceiling lights created a beautifully natural, tranquil, and homely atmosphere that was exactly what we were looking for. A month before the wedding, Lisa sat down with us to go through all the logistics and answer any questions we had, and she was always readily available by email leading up to the big day.

Daniel's Ridge was the perfect venue for our wedding day! Their communication throughout the planning process was absolutely amazing - Amanda and Todd were so responsive and eager to fulfill our vision. The venue itself is 100% handicap accessible and felt like perfection for our special event. I didn't have a care in the world on my wedding day since there was always an attentive staff member ready to help out with anything we needed. My husband and I felt completely taken care of thanks to Amanda, Todd, and the entire Daniel's Ridge team. From the beautiful ceremony site to the elegant ballroom reception, every detail at Daniel's Ridge was flawless. We're so grateful we chose this venue to host the most important day of our lives.

The Farm at 95 offically opened it's doors in October of 2013 and to this day is one of the two largest venues in Johnston County (oh, our sister location is the other larges venue)! Our space can accommodate anywhere from 80 to 400 guests, with separate rooms for food, dedicated dressing rooms, a well equipped stage and a relaxing patio heaters, fans and a gas fire pit. When you inquire, you will also receive information about our sister location, The Farm at 42, which we opened in March of 2018.

I truly have nothing but wonderful things to say about this venue, the staff, the accommodations, and their professionalism and attention throughout the whole year long engagement! Rachel, the manager, is extremely attentive, communicative, professional, kind, and helpful! Anytime I had a question throughout the year, she was very quick to answer thoroughly. She is very flexible with coordinating meetings and walk-through with vendors at the venue and thorough in explaining all the venue has to offer for wedding day (which is a lot!) On the wedding day, having a staff member present at all times is so helpful and comforting. And including the provision and set-up of tables and chairs is HUGE! This eliminated so much stress. The bar staff was also very friendly and accommodating on wedding day with meeting my requests for set-up. And of course, the photo ops at this venue are truly endless and the beautiful options for ceremony and reception set-up are amazing. The big space is exactly what we needed for our big wedding and we never felt crowded. The dance floor was the perfect size for our all night party! I truly couldn’t be happier with my decision to get married at this venue for all the reasons listed above.

From the moment we booked our wedding at The Farm at 42, Rachel was proactive with communication and gave great input on our layout options for the ceremony and reception. The space is perfect with both indoor and outdoor spaces for the ceremony location. Even on a 40 degree winter day, our cocktail hour was on the patio and between the firepit and heaters, everyone was feeling cozy! Rachel went above and beyond to help make our day magical. It's an added bonus that tables, chairs, and linens are included in their wedding packages. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding day at the Farm @ 42!

The English Country Barn of the Carolinas had certainly looked beautiful online, but we immediately found that it was even more incredible in person. During our initial tour with Ian, we became completely enamored by the venue, amazed by the ceremony spaces, the reception and cocktail hour areas, the dressing rooms, and even the abundance of restrooms. We walked down the aisle in The Enchanted Wood and realized it was everything we had been hoping for. Meeting with Teresa, we gained advice, resources, and answers. During the planning process, we visited the venue 4 times and sent countless emails with consistently quick responses. I was surprised, relieved, and grateful that so many items were available for use with no extra charge (decor, signs, tablecloths, speakers, etc). Having venue access for the weekend was a game-changer for us as well, allowing us to set up all day on Friday, rehearse Friday evening, enjoy our Saturday wedding, and pack up to leave Sunday morning without stress or hassle. We even ordered some of Teresa’s homemade macarons and tiramisu shots for our wedding day, and they were absolutely delightful. It was ideal to work with the couple that owns the venue, and it was clear that Ian and Teresa are determined to constantly improve their venue for the benefit of their clients. Our wedding was absolutely perfect, and we cannot thank them enough for doing everything they could to make it that way. The English Country Barn is gorgeous, and the owners are superb. Don’t wait to schedule your tour or book your wedding because the ECB is a gem, and you will not want to miss out on your dream wedding.

Working with Tony and Beth at Old Lystra Inn was an absolute dream from start to finish. After spending countless hours searching for the perfect venue, my husband and I knew immediately that this was the one the moment we pulled up the driveway. Tony greeted us with a late-evening tour that felt incredibly personal, not at all rushed—and it set the tone for everything that followed. The property itself is breathtaking. The grounds are impeccably maintained and filled with charm, and so much is included in the rental package—tent, dance floor, chairs, tables, and more—which made planning far less stressful. It was a huge relief not having to coordinate all those big logistics separately. Beth and Tony were a constant source of support leading up to the big day. Whether it was a quick stop by to walk the grounds, a late-night email, or one of our many questions (and there were a lot!), they always made time for us. We never felt like “just another couple” in a long wedding season. Instead, they made us feel like our day truly mattered—like we were getting married in a place that had heart and soul, not just beautiful scenery. On the day itself, Tony was everywhere—behind the scenes making things happen and helping everything flow effortlessly. We can’t overstate how much that meant to us. Thanks to his quiet dedication, we were able to be fully present and just enjoy the day. We are endlessly grateful to have had our wedding at Old Lystra Inn. It was the best day of our lives, and Tony and Beth played such a meaningful role in making that possible. We can’t wait for the day we get to return as guests and relive the magic from a different perspective. Highly, highly recommend!
