Portraits on this porch with the clean backdrop of the white house are going to be epic. It is easy to imagine so many moments of a wedding day on this porch.

This Clayton NC wedding venue is an intimate wedding venue. Couples who book this venue are seeking an intimate guest count. This wedding venue in Clayton NC can accommodate 125 guests including the bridal party for outside receptions. Rental of a tent is recommended for outdoor receptions (this is a tip I always pass along regardless!). The House can also accommodate 55 seated inside the house which is ideal for smaller weddings. If you have an in-between guest-count you can extend seating to the porch which can accommodate a 70-guest count.

There are so many great spaces to host the ceremony and reception at this wedding venue. You can easily mix and match the spaces to suit the needs for your wedding day. I imagine a cocktail hour along their grand porch and intimate seated meal inside. If you are looking for a larger guest count, renting an outdoor tent is going to be the way to go!
