I recommend the Historic Wakefield Barn to anyone who will listen. My team and I have designed there on countless occasions, and we look forward to stepping into the gorgeous space every time. One of my favorite parts of the venue is a stunning grand staircase, which gives the space such an elegant, luxurious feel. The in house vendor team is always immaculate in how they manage the space, and as a vendor I feel like I can trust them 100% with every event.

We absolutely LOVED our July wedding The Fairview in Raleigh! From the moment we toured the space, the environment was so open and welcoming. We had a good feeling about The Fairview from day 1 and I'm glad we trusted our hearts to lead us. We initially decided to book the Fairview as our reception location and booked a separate park venue for our wedding location. Since the Fairview's connected business Themeworks does item delivery, set up and break down, we got a contract with them to deliver chairs and other decor to our first location. Regardless of our plans, there was absolutely no pressure or predatory pricing tactics used throughout the process (unlike some of their competitors such as Wakefield Barn). Every rental price was fair and every decision we made was met with excitement! The day before our big day, a major storm hit and the Fairview was ready to accommodate! We ended up having both our wedding and reception at the Fairview and I'm genuinely grateful to all of the staff for making this last minute huge shift possible! The staff showed up earlier, helped flip the space, and provided a level of reassurance that will always be appreciated. While the whole staff was terrific (even the owner!), our coordinator Casey was absolutely amazing! From the moment we toured, she was ready and willing to talk details, brainstorm, and provide solutions to make our vision a reality! We were supported, encouraged and genuinely had such a great time talking and planning with Casey. As a project manager, it's no exaggeration to say that Casey and the Fairview staff were the best vendors I've ever worked with. Even down to adjusting my dress before I walked down the aisle, they were on top of EVERY single detail. The entire team at The Fairview consistently went above and beyond and made our special day absolutely perfect. If you’re considering venues in Raleigh, you have to go check out the Fairview and ThemeWorks. Bring your imagination and get ready to be surrounded with positivity and love! Congrats new couples!!

Jimmy V's Osteria & Bar made our wedding weekend so easy to plan and execute. The team was friendly from start to finish, and it was incredibly convenient having a venue that could accommodate our group for cocktails after the rehearsal dinner. We loved the setup with their bar, outdoor space, and fire pit – it gave us options for every moment. The morning after the wedding, we reserved their outside fire pit table for guests to gather before heading home, and they served fresh omelettes, eggs, and pastries with great service. The space itself is beautiful and versatile, and having everything in one place took so much stress off our shoulders. We'd definitely recommend Jimmy V's to any couple looking for a venue that goes the extra mile.

  • Dance floor not included

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.
