MANOR HOUSE
Welcome to The Manor House, a timeless gem designed by esteemed architect M.S. Davis in 1916 for Charles T. Hudson and his wife. Step inside and admire the original blueprints, a captivating glimpse into the past. Our newly remodeled front porch, complete with a charming Juliette balcony, provides the perfect backdrop for stunning bridal photos. With oversized dressing rooms for the entire wedding party, gentlemen can relax in recliners while enjoying cable TV, and ladies can prepare in style with a full-length trifold mirror and en suite bath featuring a lighted makeup station.
THE COVERED VERANDA
Come and explore our gorgeous outdoor Veranda, a delightful haven bursting with vibrant trees and beautifully trimmed boxwoods! Feel the refreshing breeze from our ceiling fans as the enchanting lights twinkle among the mature crepe myrtles, creating a magical atmosphere.
This space is absolutely perfect for ceremonies, and the nearby Grand Ballroom offers a stylish entrance for the bridal party, with options to enter from either the ballroom or the Chapel, depending on the weather. Get ready to immerse yourself in nearly 75 acres of private bliss, complete with breathtaking lake views and stunningly designed gardens!
THE CHAPEL
Experience the comfort of a climate controlled wedding, rain or shine in the Chapel. With over 2000 sq ft, the Chapel can seat from 20 - 180 guests with plenty of room for a large bridal party. Depending on the weather, the windows can be opened to let the sound of birds and a sweet scented cross breeze in. You and your guests will love the lake view completing the "outdoors in" feeling.
Relax in knowing that your wedding may use the Chapel as a back up site to the Garden, no extra fee.
All are welcome to celebrate here. Select something of ours to put in the niches (wooden crosses, lanterns, etc) or bring something of your own. Florists touches are a beautiful addition as well.
Did you know we are the only historic venue in North Carolina to have a Chapel on site? It's the perfect year round indoor option for a ceremony. Toasty in the Winter, oh so cool in the Summer and always dry!
THE GRAND BALLROOM
The Grand Ballroom is a statement in sophisticated elegance with 5 foot crystal chandeliers, 14 foot tray ceiling, large ornately framed mirrors and new luxury plank flooring. Colored LED up lighting lends a contemporary club feel to
your wedding reception and colors can be custom blended to your taste. Your choice of a huge selection of linens is included with full packages, along with your choice of napkin. You may also choose to use our gorgeous custom Farm Tables for your wedding party, seating up to 22 guests.
There is seating for up to 180 guests inside with a good sized dance floor and more seating available under the attached covered veranda. The custom made buffet tables are artfully decorated for each event. Three sets of French doors lead out to the covered veranda and cocktail hour.
