Weddings
A venue unlike any other, for a day you'll never forget
Located right outside downtown Raleigh, our venue offers a private and unique space for your Wedding. Covering over 14 acres of land, our Main Barn, Bridal House, active Horse Barn, and covered Parking Arena create the perfect atmosphere for your special day.
For over 89 years our venue has operated as a cow farm, a horse farm, and finally a luxury wedding venue. Today The Historic Wakefield Barn invites you to celebrate your wedding day with us surrounded by those you love.
While we celebrate our rich history, we also celebrate the rich future of the couples here at the barn. A future whose foundation is strong, and dreams are limitless.
