Absolutely stunning venue! We held our wedding her in late December and the gardens were still beautiful even mid-winter. The staff at the venue is very friendly and helpful and the overnight suite for newlywed couple is very comfortable. Sarah was extremely responsive and provided us all the answers we need for our copious questions. We also loved all the décor that they venue was able to provide.

My husband and I chose to have our wedding at the Matthews House and it was the best decision we ever made. The location is wonderful, all of our out of town guests loved being able to walk to the venue, restaurants, coffee shops, etc from their accommodations during their stay. The venue itself is beautiful (I don't have all of my professional photos yet but make your photographer take photos of you in the upstairs bathroom/tub!!!). Sarah the owner is kind, easy to communicate with, caring, and wonderful. She was so helpful throughout the whole process (I planned my own wedding and it was so easy - they even have their own storage unit of decor so you don't need to buy anything!). Jannette was the wedding coordinator (included in the package) and my day would not have been as special without her help, guidance, and patience. She made everything run smoothly the day-of. I literally didn't worry about ANYTHING. She was detailed and meticulous and caring. My review could go on and on. Thank you to Sarah and Jannette, my day was perfect!

Absolutely perfect venue, even for mid-size events. Their recommended caterer is excellent. The staff is very friendly. The reservation and coordination process could not have been easier.

The venue is gorgeous inside and out! I could ramble on and on about how perfect the venue is, but Sarah and Janette deserve the real praise. From the very beginning Sarah was very involved and accommodating, she’d often checked in to see if I had any questions or needed anything. Jannette was our day of coordinator and boy was I surprised when she told me that her day job is book keeping!! Could’ve fooled me, she did such an amazing job setting everything up and making sure everything ran smoothly. I can’t say enough nice things about her. Thank you both for all your help to make our day so special and perfect.

I agree with many of the reviewers. The venue is gorgeous and versatile. You will not need to leave the venue for photographs. The Matthews house has excellent areas, indoor and outdoor.The staff always was very professional. Sarah was very informative and coordinated well with our wedding organizer, and Debra (the day of coordinator) was very helpful from beginning to end. Debra was very attentive and helpful in any issue that happened during our event.Overall we are very happy with our choice. We fully recommend the Matthews house for any couples looking for a venue in the Triangle area. Its beauty, versatility, and staff attentiveness will make your wedding day be unforgettable.

We had our wedding at the Matthews House last weekend and couldn't be happier with them! The venue was so pretty in the spring for an outdoor ceremony, but we were just as happy to use the ballroom in the event of bad weather.I can't say enough good things about Sarah and Casey. We were really nervous about the planning process, but they made things so easy for us the day of--we just had to show up! Everything was organized perfectly, the decor was perfect, and Casey was wonderful and kept things stress free and moving smoothly. They were also great for helping us plan and gave really good suggestions we'd never even thought about. The day went even better than we'd hoped, and we had a great time along with our guests.Thank you for helping us have our dream wedding!

We hosted our daughter's first birthday here and I am so glad that we did. Not only is the venue absolutely gorgeous and has a vintage feel to it but the house itself is a fantastic place to take photos. It was so easy to work with Sarah through the booking process as well planning the table setting. On the day of the event the event coordinator not only called the caterer who were running late to check on them, she also expertly cut the cake for the guests and even packed the leftover ones for us to take. I will absolutely host more events hereThank you for everything Sarah and team.

I love photographing weddings at The Matthews House. The garden is gorgeous for outdoor ceremonies, and the house and banquet hall are excellent as well! One of my favorite Raleigh area venues for sure!

Recently hosted our wedding here and we couldn’t have been more pleased with the result. This venue is worry-free with in-house catering options, great decorations, a wonderful atmosphere, and (most importantly) really fantastic rain plan options which we experienced the benefits of first hand. Absolutely recommend!!

It was wonderful to work with Heather and Sarah to host our weddings at The Matthews House. Originally planning to have both our ceremony and reception in summer 2020 at the Matthews House, Covid required us to radically change our plans. Sarah was very accommodating and allowed us to hold a small outdoor ceremony on our original 2020 date, and we had our full celebration and reception the following summer of 2021. Heather was instrumental in helping us coordinate our big wedding ceremony and reception. She walked us through the amenities provided by The Matthews House, coordinated with our vendors, and made sure the night ran smoothly. The Matthews House itself is gorgeous and was the perfect size for our 100-guest event – not too big and not too small. Both the interior and exterior of the house exude a classic, timeless spirit that is amenable to just about any wedding theme or color palate. We could not have been happier with our choice of venue!
