Karen and Abigail were a pleasure to work with. The venue comes with tables and chairs and they make it super easy to rent signs/decor items from so you don’t need to worry about those small extra details. All around the entire place is gorgeous from the groom/bridal suite to the front entrance, reception and cocktail area, and the vineyard. The views were incredible and it was 100% worth it especially with how beautiful our pictures have turned out so far. I will say I felt they were a little busy as my wedding was Saturday and they also had weddings on Sunday and Friday. For this reason I felt a little rushed towards the end, but all in all I would have my wedding here 10 out of 10 times if I were to do it over again!

Cadillac Service Garage is located in the heart of downtown Greensboro. As we renovated this historic 1921 Cadillac Dealership, we respected its character and kept the exposed brick walls, original black & white marble Showroom floor and lofty 30' ceilings with skylights. We added only "real" materials like concrete, brick, steel, reclaimed wood and glass in bringing the old building back to life as a wedding venue. The result is a truly unique, handcrafted, industrial urban-renewal work of art! Cadillac Service Garage features a private Terrace Courtyard, gorgeous architectural features, industrial texture and a Wandering Garden for photography, multiple indoor & outdoor ceremony locations, two large, well-appointed private suites with early access, two built-in bars, a built-in stage, on-site parking, custom-built farm tables & Chiavari chairs, and custom lighting that includes permanent (indoor & outdoor) festoon string lights.

Cadillac Service Garage was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! Their communication was amazing - they were always prompt and beyond helpful throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is truly the most beautiful space we've ever seen, and it was the perfect backdrop for our special day. They really helped make our vision happen, and even let us use some of the decor elements we had seen on their Instagram, like the beautiful lights for our backdrop, and installed everything perfectly. Everyone at Cadillac was so beyond helpful and a joy to work with. They truly made our dream wedding happen and we couldn't be more thankful!

Highland Brewing Company was an incredible venue for our Welcome Party from the very beginning, the communication with Erin Winters and Monica Mayville was quick, responsive, and easy to work with. When we had to quickly move our welcome party from New Belgium in February due to the hurricane, the team at Highland Brewing worked with us to get us situated for an April wedding. The spacious venue was perfect for our 99 person welcome party, and the staff was fantastic in helping us execute our special day. The beautiful space and great communication made our wedding day perfect. We highly recommend Highland Brewing Company as a wedding venue.

The inside is spacious, immaculately clean, and beautiful. The air conditioning in this place is impressive, especially considering how hot it was at my August wedding.

We believe that celebrating life and hosting is one of the greatest joys imaginable. Our lives take us in so many different directions, that finding the time, much less the space to be together feels impossible. When events can be firmly put on the calendar, you have achieved an amazing feat. Gathering so many people with different lives and schedules for one night is a monumental task. We have an incredibly large family ourselves so every birthday and holiday feels like a massive event. Once you nail down the date, we want to be the space where you can host your loved ones. Where you can share food and drink, and create a memory that will stay with them for a lifetime. We would be honored if you could create those memories with us. We created this space with our family in mind and we hope we can share it with yours

I have photographed with Klarie on numerous occasions, including restaurant photos, family portraits, and photography of her own events. Every time, Klarie has been such a joy to work with and so easy to communicate with, so I have no doubt that clients will be in good hands planning their events here! As a wedding and event photographer, there are many things I look for in a venue which can set it apart as deserving of a recommendation. After touring Suenos, it's very clear that Klarie put a lot of thought and intention into every aspect of the venue's design. Having an outdoor space which is covered is a very smart thing with our NC weather, and having a barn-style indoor space with so many windows allows for beautiful ambient light even when indoors. The indoor bathrooms in the barn are some of the nicest venue bathrooms I've seen, and it's great to have outdoor bathrooms just a few steps away as well. Because the venue is so far off the road and set back against the treeline, the entire space feels very peaceful and secluded, while still being easily accessible. And I absolutely adore the cottage (and it's bathtub!) which would be perfect for getting ready photos. Klarie has an exceptional eye for decor and design, so I love that the spaces can be tailored to fit each of her events. Each of the venue spaces as well as the property itself feels spacious, offers a huge variety of photo backdrops perfect for any season, and has fantastic light both during the day and once the sun has set. I look forward to getting to photograph here!

Our fall wedding at The Providence Cotton Mill was an absolute fairy tale! The venue's unique and European castle-like look was exactly what we dreamed of. Despite Hurricane Helene hitting just days before, the incredible staff, especially the owner and my coordinator, Sommer, and her amazing side-kick, Laurie, were absolutely incredible. They hustled tirelessly to make everything perfect. As a teacher with lots of creative ideas, I loved that they let me put my personal touch on everything without hesitation.

We love this brewery and have been visiting as normal customers for years. The event was mildly disapointing though - it was pretty clear that they did not prioritize the event or even communicate between team members. I emailed my main contact with my specific grievances; at the end of the day, the event was fine. We had a good time and it all ended well, they could have just done a much better at communicating, preparing and honestly caring.

We loved having our big day at Weaver House. We used their full planning services and their catering. Alexandra is very easy to work with and is that calming presence on your wedding day! The venue itself if beautiful - we picked it partly because of the gardens outside since we love the outdoors and love spending time at our local arboretum. The catering was amazing as well - Chef Joey and Chef Brit take time to learn what you and your partner like and can put those spins on dishes you choose. The value is also great for the Western North Carolina area. We are so glad we kept our wedding in WNC after Helene and could support a wonderful space that truly wanted our day to be what we envisioned.

Ironclad Brewery is located in an historic building dating back to 1925 in Downtown Wilmington. The building was completely renovated in 2014, but we've maintained much of the character and integrity of the original building.

In addition to our craft beer and seltzer creations, we also serve cider, wine, and spirits. ​

I have photographed countless weddings at Ironclad Brewery - and it is hands down one of my favorite venues to work in. The building itself is gorgeous, with tall brick walls and dangling twinkle lights (which make every reception photo SPARKLE), with two floors of space to have a large OR a small event. The location is also incredible, walking distance to all of my favorite photo locations downtown, and directly across the street from a parking deck, which does not exist for most other venues downtown. Not only is the space stunning, but the staff really makes it what it is. Rachel will help you out from the beginning of planning your wedding all the way up to the wedding day, and the bar is one of the best in Wilmington. Excellent selection as well as a fully staffed bar (actually, two) so that your guests will never have to wait in line to get their drinks. Ironclad is the BEST!

Allie, our event planner, anticipated our every need and made sure the day ran seamlessly. Owner Michael was also incredibly accommodating, working with us to create the elegant, industrial-chic vibe we were going for. The space itself is brand new and has a beautiful, unique aesthetic that exceeded all of our expectations. We highly recommend Holland Brooks to anyone looking for a special event or wedding venue.

We got married at Whiskey Kitchen in November 2021. They did an amazing job! The food was amazing. Having the entire whisky bar open was a hit for our guests who are normally used to a small selection of drinks at most other weddings. They already have tables & chairs available to use and moved them around between our ceremony and reception. There is plenty of space for a live band and dancing. We're so happy we asked if they hosted weddings! We would highly recommend using them as your wedding venue.

It is located in downtown Cary, which is walkable from the Mayton as well as a short Uber or drive to many hotels in the area. The venue is gorgeous on its own with its natural light and exposed brick and does not need a lot of decor or florals to make it beautiful.
