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.

Wedding planning was not as stressful because I had so much help from venue host and coordinators, even tho I live in another state. The venue was so beautiful during the summer time! Everything was green and blossoming, a bit on the warmer side, but the openness of the reception area allowed breeze to cool us off. The bridal suite was such a dream!! There was enough space for the hair & makeup artists, bridesmaids, mothers, and grandmothers to get ready. The grooms quarters were also spacious and allowed for bonding time before the ceremony. Parking services were great, the guests had a smooth time with it and finding the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception sites. Cannot recommend this venue enough, everything was wonderful and magical!!

Jeremy and the rest of his team were wonderful! I never had any concerns that he was unable to answer promptly. The team was professional while providing an atmosphere that made my wife and I felt like part of their family. The location is absolutely stunning during all seasons (we visited several times leading up to the wedding and even had our engagement shoot there) and looks great in all of our photos! With multiple locations on the property and only one event per day, you truly have all the space you need and more. As members of the LGBTQ community, it was important that we find a vendor that aligned with our values and provided a safe space and they exceeded that! 100/10 would absolutely recommend choosing Starlight Meadow for your event!

We had an amazing experience hosting our wedding at The Barn at Blue Rock Farm. From the very beginning, Elizabeth was in constant communication with us, ensuring that every detail was accounted for. The venue itself is an intimate setting with a beautiful outdoor area, making it an affordable option for couples looking for a unique and picturesque location. While there is no air conditioning, the venue has plenty of fans that kept us cool and comfortable throughout the event. One of our favorite things about working with The Barn at Blue Rock Farm was the flexibility they offered - we were able to bring in our own catering, beverage service, and decorator, which allowed us to personalize the day exactly how we wanted. Elizabeth was also incredibly accommodating, jumping in to help with our day-of coordinator services at the last minute when we needed her. The pricing was reasonable, and the expectations were well communicated from the start, making the entire planning process a breeze. We highly recommend The Barn at Blue Rock Farm to any couple looking for a beautiful, customizable, and affordable wedding venue about one hour away from Raleigh.

Of all the venues I looked at, Chateau Vie offered the most space for my medium-sized wedding (110 people) for the most affordable price. And the fact that it was inexpensive does not mean that it was low quality. The garden location where our ceremony was held was sweet, beautiful, and elegant, comfortably seating all of our guests. The reception area was also lovely and the perfect size for our guests. The getting-ready spaces were beautiful and fun. As for the owners, they really helped make sure everything flowed. I paid only for the venue space, which was about 2,000. However, that included set-up, rehearsal coordination, ceremony coordination, reception assistance, and clean-up. They were so helpful in making sure all the little details were taken care of so I didn't have to think about them. In our meeting a few weeks before the wedding, they walked through everything with me, bringing up questions I hadn't even known I needed to consider, which was so helpful. It was also nice to have the coordinator's input on the order of ceremony to make sure everything was as smooth as possible. My only word of caution is that communication can sometimes feel slow and choppy. I usually received an answer to any question within 24 hours, but sometimes if I asked multiple questions in the same email, I didn't get answers to all of them. If I emailed again with the same question, though, they would get back to me on it. And for me, that did not take away from how special and perfect my wedding day was.

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!
