Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This quaint, historic event center sits in the heart of Raleigh, hidden behind beloved neighborhood restaurants Sitti and Gravy, who also happen to be (lucky you!) the venue's exclusive caterers.
- A charming brick courtyard with elegant market lighting hosts your ceremony or outdoor cocktail hour. Inside, you'll find a wonderful rustic-industrial reception hall with poured concrete flooring and walls of weathered wood and exposed brick.
- Your rental includes use of the lovely Wedding Suite, which features a beautiful vintage vanity, full-length mirrors, and a private bathroom. Includes an assortment of refreshments and heavy hors d'oeuvres for a light lunch spread.
