“From start to finish, the team at Carolina Horse Park Foundation made planning our wedding feel effortless. They answered every question with expertise and got back to us so fast that we never felt lost or confused about what to expect. What really stood out was their focus on the small details—they thought through things we hadn't even considered yet, which made a huge difference on the day. The venue itself is truly stunning, and they were protective of our privacy in a way that let us just be present with our loved ones. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how special the setting was and how smoothly everything ran. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in bringing our vision to life.”

“I grew up in Ellerbe, NC the town where Grant Gables is located. When my parents heard that the Grant family was building a venue, we knew we needed to see what it was. We fell in love with Grant Gables before construction was completed. It meant so much to me to be able to have the wedding of our dreams right where I grew up at. Lana and Lexi made sure that we had the best day. People from all over the state will soon be coming to Grant Gables to host their event.”
