    Best day of our lives!

    We got married in December 2022 and could not have asked for a more perfect day. The venue itself is gorgeous and the location is super convenient, especially for out of town guests. Greg and his team were responsive, accommodating and fun to work with. They made thoughtful suggestions that took our ideas to the next level. The food was delicious, from cocktail hour hors d'oeuvres to the main course. We also had them do our bouquets and floral arrangements, which turned out beautifully. I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for their dream wedding!

    The Millennium Center's reply:

    Thank you so much Amy. We loved helping with your Christmas Wedding. We appreciate your kind words.

    Simply The Best!!

    Simply The Best!! What a beautiful time we had! Greg Edie and Mary were the most gracious hosts and made our daughter's wedding an elegant memory we will cherish for a lifetime. From the first meeting to the tasting, to the final event, they were accessible and quick responding. We feel the atmosphere there is like walking into a familiar place, like visiting with Family. The staff was so helpful and accommodating. Our son's wedding was also at The Millenium Center. It was a privilege to back and enjoy once again!! Give them a call We highly recommend! 5 stars is not enough! Cheers!

    The Best Wedding Reception!

    “Perfect.” “Beautiful.” “Fabulous.” These are only a few of the many reactions our guests shared with us. And they were due to the amazing wedding reception that we hosted at The Millennium Center with the expert help of owner Greg Carlyle and his talented team. They brought years of experience, enthusiasm, and friendliness to our every question and request. From our first consultation with Greg months in advance, all the way through the last dance of the night, this proud mother and father of the bride will always be thrilled that we chose to celebrate this special day there. Greg’s signature 1918 Beaux Arts building in beautiful downtown Winston Salem was ideal. It’s in the center of many hotels, restaurants, churches, and fun things for guests to do, all within easy walking distance. We made use of the gracious and sophisticated accommodations for our day-long wedding preparations and dressing, a wonderful pre-reception cocktail hour with its multiple serving locations, an over-the-top delicious meal and a large stage and dance floor for the band and all 265 guests to celebrate. Greg Carlyle and the Millennium Center --- Wow!

    Father of the Bride

    We had several options for venues for our daughter’s wedding reception. We have known Greg and Edie for years and asked them to make a proposal for the special event. The entire experience was beyond expectations. They were accommodating of our every need and not only did they not overpromise, they over delivered. Greg was always available to discuss details and was helpful with suggestions that not only saved us money but made the event more enjoyable for our guests. Every aspect from the food tasting to the discussions about layout and timing were right on point. It is obvious that Greg and Edie have been doing this for a long time and still have meeting the needs of their clients as their most important goal. Our guests have not stopped commenting on how special the night was. I give the Millennium Center my highest recommendation.

    Unmatched, excellent, 1000000/10

    The Millennium Center is a classic staple in Winston-Salem. Greg and his team are truly unmatched and that is so hard to find! The immediate feel of “calm” and “understanding” when you explain your vision of your perfect day comes to life within moments of chatting with them. The food was fantastic and we are still getting compliments mo this after our wedding. Our favorite day will forever be within the walls of the Millennium Center and we are forever grateful for Greg and his team!

    The Millennium Center's reply:

    Anna,
    I am truly humbled by your kind words. It was an honor and a privilege to host this important life event. You had a beautiful vision and It was amazing when it all came together.
    All the very best in life -
    Greg and Edie

    Perfection!!

    We LOVE this venue!!! Everything from linens, to decor, to florals, to food is done in house. The only outside vendors we had to coordinate were music, cake, and hair/makeup. This seriously helped us streamline our planning process and absolutely everything was incredible!! Mary made the entire process and wedding day itself run super smoothly. The venue is gorgeous with several different rooms to choose from for the event; we chose the historic courtroom and FBI room for our Sunday morning ceremony and brunch reception. All of the event staff was professional, friendly, and welcomed our guests on our big day. Cannot recommend this venue highly enough!!

    Wedding 10/8/2022

    We hosted our wedding at the millennium center and are so happy with how it turned out. The team here is beyond words. They made sure all details of our day were perfect, and we so attentive through the entire planning process. Their on site catering was probably some of the best wedding food I’ve ever had. We couldn’t be happier with the millennium center and how our day turned out.

    The Millennium Center's reply:

    Taylor,
    Thank you for your kind review. You were great to work with and had a beautiful vision for your big day. All we did was as you wished.
    We wish you all the beat in life.
    Greg and the Millennium Team.

    Excellent Experience

    My daughter got married here in March 2022 and everything was perfect! Greg Carlyle was wonderful to work with and very accommodating. The food was excellent and the venue was beautiful that night!

    The Millennium Center's reply:

    Thanks again Elizabeth. We truly appreciate you taking the time to review us. It is an honor to host our local families.

    Say hello to the family and have a wonderful Holiday season.

    The Millennium Center is a very Special Place!

    We traveled form out of town to attend our nephews wedding in Winston Salem. Even though he and his lovely bride were forced to scale things down due to Covid restrictions, I have to say that the staff at the Millennium Center were very professional, they provided more than ample space social distancing, if anyone so chose. The building itself is just lovely, the grand scale of it alone is amazing. It is definitely something you wouldn't imagine down south, Mr. and Mrs. Carlyle have done a fantastic job restoring this beautiful building and giving it life in a new way. We were even lucky enough to receive a personal tour of the entire space, all three levels are just stunning! Between the joy my family shared, the delicious food, and fantastic service we received we will always remember our time in Winston Salem and the Millennium Center.

    The Perfect Wedding

    I had my wedding here in October 2021 and I can't even begin to describe how amazing it was. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was just stunning. We invited people from all over the country and EVERYONE was blown away by the food. This venue has so much history and character -- our photos from the day are unbelievable. The staff went above and beyond to make our day extra special and we are just so grateful.

    Regarding COVID, The Millennium Center made us feel very safe and reassured during the whole process. The staff was masked and our guests felt very comfortable and safe because of the precautions they took both on and before our wedding day. We really appreciated this. This was my dream wedding and the staff at The Millennium Center made it happen. They communicated with me every step of the way and were flexible and kind throughout the wedding planning process. I had countless people tell me this is one of the best weddings they've ever been to.

    Definitely get married here if you want to work with someone who really cares about your experience -- because that's clearly a priority to the folks at The Millennium Center.

    Could not have been better!

    What a fabulous venue and staff. From beginning to end Greg, Mary and their team did such a wonderful job with my wedding. The Millennium Center offers so many options within their venue. They have a wide variety of spaces available, depending on the vibe you're wanting for your big day. Not only that but they are a full service venue. You don't have to worry about renting tables, chairs or tableware bc they have a huge variety to choose from. They also will provide your food and beverage onsite, another huge benefit of choosing this venue as well as event coordinator who will help you every step of the way. We got so many compliments about how wonderful the food was! It is also so nice to be able to have full access to the venue for the day of your event. They have amazing spaces to get ready in and not to mention amazing photo opportunities around the building, especially the rooftop. I would highly recommend this venue in downtown Winston-Salem, NC.

    Best Day of My Life

    On September 5, 2021 I was blessed to be able to get married at the Millennium Center. Both my ceremony and reception were held at the venue and it was the most memorable day ever! The staff were absolutely amazing and very responsive. The experience was so stress free due to everything that is included in the price for the venue. My guest said the food was some of the best food they have ever tasted at a wedding and were blown away by the beauty of the venue and organization of event. Thank you Millennium Center Staff for helping make my day so special! If I could do it over again, I would choose the Millennium Center every time.

    Excellence from the Millennium Center

    I had my wedding at the Millennium Center in November 2021 and would recommend them to anyone! The entire team came together to make the event perfect and memorable for ~175 guests. Greg and Mary were both involved from the first meeting to the end of the reception. They executed every special request and made the entire wedding seamless from the ceremony in the courtroom to cocktail hour in the lobby to the reception in the main event space. The food was delicious and organized as stations so no one had to wait serving beef tenderloin, salmon, shrimp and grits, and chicken. The bar staff kept everyone's drinks full until we made our exit and the bar carried all the brands we typically drink. We had an 11 piece band who comfortably fit on stage using an incredible sound system The Millennium Center already has. The staff was constantly rounding the reception to clean up plates and glasses so everything looked neat. The Millennium Center even did all the flowers and decorations catered to our taste. I would highly recommend anyone looking at The Millennium Center to book the space!

    Truly fantastic!

    As a wedding planner myself, I knew I needed a venue with fantastic service that would be able to perfect our vision for our wedding day. Greg and his team at The Millennium Center did just that! Greg responded to all of my random ideas and questions with enthusiasm and was a fantastic planning partner. He goes out of his way to make client's dreams a reality. As an added bonus, the menu selections and food offerings at The Millennium Center are expansive and delicious. My husband and I are grateful to Greg and his staff for helping us create our perfect wedding day!

    Perfect Experience

    Greg, Edie, Mary, and the entire Millennium Center staff did a fantastic job with our daughter’s wedding. As Greg promised, everything was perfect, i.e. the venue, the flowers, and the food, making for a wonderful day for our beautiful daughter and her new husband, family, and friends. Based on our family’s experience, I cannot recommend Greg and his team strongly enough.

    Fantastic, Spacious Venue in Winston-Salem

    Our wedding weekend was a dream thanks to Greg and his team! As a Winston native, I'd been to prom and other events at the Millennium Center, but did not appreciate the beauty of the venue until I got married there.

    Greg was quick and receptive throughout the entire process and allowed us to come in whenever we had questions or wanted to talk things through. Having a venue that did flowers, food, all equipment, etc. made it so easy on us and lessened the number of vendors we had to work with.

    It was great to be able to get ready at the venue (the bridal suite is fantastic) and spend our entire day there. Our wedding day ran so smoothly, which was no small feat with almost 250 people. I would recommend the venue for anyone looking to get married in Winston.

    The absolute best of the best

    The Millennium Center is easily one of the most luxurious and accommodating event venues in North Carolina, let alone Winston-Salem. As a fellow wedding vendor (DJ), I can say this would be one of the best choices you can make, we love working with their team.

    All inclusive site for wedding

    Beautiful, historic venue with gracious, helpful owners. Wonderful bridal room with lots of mirrors and 3 salon chairs for the whole crew to get ready. The venue provides catering that is second to none. Our guests raved about the food and bar service. Venue provided us with a preferred DJ who played appropriate, and varied music during cocktail hour and dinner, yet, kept the party pumping when it was time to dance. The wife of the owner stepped in and helped fix the flowers that arrived from another florist. She had extra flowers she used from her own stock to rearrange the delivered flowers. They ended up being beautiful. This venue is focused on customer service. I would recommend to anyone for any festive occasion.

    The Millennium Center's reply:

    Jana,

    We appreciate your kind words and were honored to help your families big day. Thank you for your gift of decorations. We wish you and your family all the best.

    Sincerely,
    Greg and Edie

    The best wedding experience

    We were married (both service and reception) this past fall at the Millennium Center and I cannot say enough positive things about the overall experience! Being incredibly busy finishing the last year of my masters I had little time for wedding planning and staying on top of details with vendors and such. Greg and his team were able to provide almost everything I needed in terms of decorations and overall flow of the wedding. We also used his catering company for food and it was the most delicious wedding food we have ever had! The day of he handled everything with the caterer, DJ, cake, and guests. We just showed up, got ready and had the most relaxing and beautiful day and night!
