We had an intimate backyard style wedding at Manjal Space and it was phenomenal! The venue was recently renovated inside so there was so much space and there are built in speakers/lights. The outdoor patio was large enough to seat 70 guests (rectangular tables) and even then there was space from the walkway starting at the patio to the barn. The venue has 3 spaces total: large indoor space, large outdoor patio, and an entire barn! We used all of them for my event since they were a few steps away. There are even string lights on the patio, inside the barn, and outside the barn giving it a nice ambiance. The host, Hari, is the easiest to work with and so sweet. He responds quickly and tends to all your needs as much as possible. I felt like my wedding would not have been as smooth if it weren’t for Hari’s dedication into making sure we had everything we needed. He was able to move certain furniture we needed out and came to the venue to meet with my planner on his own time! I am so happy I chose Manjal Space for my event and I recommend anyone who is considering any special events to book with Hari at Manjal Space, you will not be disappointed!

The team delivered our Vision 100%. We had a lot of DIY items stored in labeled boxes and we went over everything and provided a description of what the tables would look like etc and the day off I didn’t have to do anything but focus on being the bride and getting pretty. The energy of everyone on the team was positive and extremely accommodating!! If I didn’t have the answer for where things should go the response was always “don’t worry, we will figure it out!” I would hire them again for my next event! They were also able to provide our photo booth service (last minute bc we decided on it late in the game) and they brought personalized props to fit our theme and personalities. All of my wedding guests complimented them and spoke highly of how organized they were. I made it clear I wanted to start on time (not 1 minute earlier or later) and Demetra did JUST THAT!! I would HIGHLY recommend them! Prior to the wedding day we met at the venue to discuss details and talk through logistics. This made me and my husband feel comfortable and allowed the planners to see everything that needed to be executed. They were running around the entire night so that my bridal party and guests didn’t have to lift a finger and everyone knew where to go and what to do. Thank you again for an amazing experience!!

The Stockroom at 230 was perfect. Compared to the other weddings I saw in their catalog, mine was minimalist. (I left many decorations) It was beautiful regardless. They are great with organizing floor plans. They designed one for me where there was no need for a room change. That brick and wood floor look is nice, but the bridal suite was such a bonus. My sisters and I had a grand time up there. It has a nice view and easy to decorate for your theme though it's not necessary. The groom's suite isn't as large, but more than sufficient. My husband and groomsmen enjoyed themselves there. I didn't get a food plan nor did they force it on me. I love that. I could see a Stockroom staff member at all times. Additionally there was security. There were no hiccups, but I got married St. Patrick's Day Weekend. My wedding was beautiful.

If you’re looking for the perfect venue, 658 Events is it! This space truly has it all, and John is an absolute gem. He goes above and beyond to help with anything you need, making the entire process seamless. While it’s not strictly all-inclusive, John has an incredible way of making it feel that way. He can help you arrange everything you need, from catering to décor, so you’re never left feeling overwhelmed. The in-house catering is a game-changer – no stress about finding a caterer, and the food is fantastic. This venue is a nonprofit, so you can feel good knowing your money is making a difference. For every meal purchased, they donate free meals to the community lunch program the following week. They’ve thought of everything: chinaware, servers, bartenders, and even the option to bring your liquor – saving you a ton of money. And if you need décor or a planner, John has incredible recommendations to make your vision come to life. The space is huge, with plenty of room for your event and a beautiful lobby for a cocktail hour. Multiple ceremony options are available to suit your style. I honestly can’t recommend 658 Events enough. It’s the venue that takes the stress out of planning and lets you focus on enjoying your event.

Chatham Station was the perfect venue for my husband and I. We were on the search for a venue that had an indoor/outdoor feel as well as convenient for our guests staying in downtown Cary. Chatham Station answered all of that. The venue has beautiful garage doors that we kept open throughout our wedding to keep that indoor/outdoor feel during the night. 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. We had great communication and service from the owners and the staff of the venue who helped make our day perfect. I couldn’t recommend this venue enough.
