Historic Elegance Meets Botanical Beauty at Alexander Homestead
Alexander Homestead is within 8 acres of meticulously maintained gardens with a stunning Queen Anne Victorian mansion as its centerpiece. Combining authentic 1903 architecture and sophisticated design elements, this private estate creates a timeless and intimate atmosphere, establishing it as Charlotte's premier setting for your ceremony and reception.

The Secret Garden creates a botanical sanctuary with rows of white garden chairs leading to a classically designed white pavilion with architectural detailing. The ceremony site is embraced by heritage oak trees that filter golden light to cast gentle patterns across the emerald lawn. For those preferring a more formal garden setting, the Rose Garden Terrace offers an exquisite alternative with an ornate white arbor framing views of the carved stone fountain.

Transition to cocktail hour on the authentic Victorian Veranda showcasing period craftsmanship. This wrap-around porch allows guests to mingle while enjoying views of the surrounding gardens, wholeheartedly balancing historic character and contemporary comfort. The carefully preserved architectural details provide exceptional photo opportunities where couples can capture romantic moments against the backdrop of original Victorian craftsmanship and botanical beauty.

Inside, the Grand Hall impresses with its high ceiling and pristine wooden trusses. Round tables with premium white linens and wooden cross-back chairs create a sophisticated setting for dining and celebrating, while the neutral palette enhances personalized décor themes.

Best all-inclusive venue!

Alexander Homestead is the perfect all-inclusive venue. From the amazing staff to the beautiful venue, putting it all together for your big day. Being able to pick and choose from a list of venues within the area that all try to give you the best pricing around, one of the biggest blessings. As a planner, it was so nice to have someone always there to answer any questions I had, understand what I was trying to find or do and helping make sure it all looked perfect the day of the wedding. Being able to enjoy the day you spend so much time planning, plus it goes by so fast, you want to be able to enjoy and not have to do a thing. Carolann & Danielle were THE BEST! August 31, 2024 was one for the book & we can’t recommend a better venue.

As a wedding photographer, I love working with Alexander Homestead and their whole team. Everyone is great at communicating before, during and post-wedding. The property itself is stunning and always so perfectly maintained. If you're a couple looking for a gorgeous garden wedding - this is the venue for you. I always love when I book a couple who is getting married at Alexander Homestead!

Picture Perfect Wedding in 2024

Alexander Homestead was the perfect wedding venue. I've passed by the main home seen from Sharon Amity all of my life and never knew one of Charlotte's best kept secret wedding venues was right in its backyard. After scheduling a tour and meeting the wonderful staff, we were blown away by the property and people. AH provides an in-service wedding planner, which was one of best things about booking them. Carolann and Danielle were incredible, provided us email/text reminders when milestones approached, and gave us confidence knowing we were going to be in great hands. They were fantastic to work with.
AH also provided in-house vendors, which was convenient. While you could choose to use an outside vendor (for a fee), we ended up going with almost all of their in-house vendors and services, because they were cost-effective and provided great service. From the DJ, Flowers, and the officiant, they were all awesome to work with.
On the wedding day itself, the wedding planners/staff made sure everything ran smoothly, and we can definitely say we were able to just enjoy our wedding day and not worry due to the amazing staff.
The property and venue is so scenic, from the gazebo and the main garden area to the barn yard/reception area, it made our wedding day so picturesque. Couldn't have asked for a better day.
We can't recommend Alexander Homestead enough for your wedding venue needs. 5/5
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
