I can't express how fantastic our wedding was at the Topsail Assembly Building! We wanted a venue that brought in our love for the coast along with a welcoming space to celebrate with our loved ones and dance til we dropped. Being in events myself, I knew I wanted a place with indoor/outdoor options, ample parking, a prep kitchen and areas for vendors - let me tell you, we were NOT disappointed! From start to finish, Stella responded quickly with our questions, helped us schedule venue visits, and is just an overall gem to be around. Their recommended vendors handled our day with accuracy and punctuality; our coordinator Valerie was phenomenal! Add in the incredible views no matter which direction you look, and the experience could not have more wonderful. 10/10, would party again!

Awarded Best of Zola
So glad we chose The Farm at West Prong Acres to be our wedding venue! It is absolutely beautiful, and Amy is amazing to work with. We didn’t have a wedding planner/coordinator and she stepped in and helped wherever she could. The venue had plenty of space to host our 100ish guest wedding and the airbnb was perfect for the bridal party to get ready in. We were able to be creative and have the wedding of our dreams, I wish I could add all of the photos but Zola won’t let me. It was absolutely beautiful and I’m so thankful I used this amazing venue for my wedding day!

Our plates/flatware/cups are biodegradable (we do offer an eclectic mix of real wine/champagne glasses). No more 6 foot banquet tables. This venue is meant for social gatherings. Pave' is cocktail style so lounge if you like on the couch, hop up on a bar stool or stand and mix/mingle. We offer all the rentals. There is only one bathroom at Pave' so that keeps our numbers comfortably in the 25-35 range. This is the vision for Pave'. I have done traditional venues in the past but I thought it was time to mix things up a bit. Hope you like it. 910.297.6526 eventsatpave@gmail.com www.eventsatpave.com
