We’re thrilled that our reception will be catered by the acclaimed Fearrington House Restaurant, one of the most celebrated dining destinations in the country. It has earned the prestigious Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Award, placing it among just 32 restaurants nationwide to receive this honor, and earned a 2025 Michelin Recommendation (1 of 47 restaurants in NC). Fearrington is also one of only two inns in the U.S. to hold a combined 20 AAA Diamonds and Forbes Five-Star Awards across both its restaurant and lodging. Executive Chef Colin Bedford has been named a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux, a distinction held by only 21 chefs in the U.S., reflecting the exceptional culinary experience we’re so excited to share with you.
