Bostwicks Magnolia Manor

Bostwick's Magnolia Manor is a historic waterfront Outer Banks wedding venue set on seven private acres overlooking the breathtaking Roanoke Island Sound. Built in 1936 and thoughtfully restored, the estate blends timeless Southern charm with carefully planned modern amenities while preserving the history and character that make Magnolia Manor so special.

Rather than simply adapting a vacation home for events, Magnolia Manor has been thoughtfully restored and intentionally equipped for weddings—creating a one-of-a-kind destination where family and friends can gather, celebrate, and stay together.

Exchange vows beneath the magnificent Southern Magnolia, planted by Laura Bostwick more than 50 years ago, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens and unforgettable sunsets over the Roanoke Island Sound.

The beautifully restored Manor House is the heart of the estate, offering inviting gathering spaces and modern conveniences where loved ones reconnect and create lasting memories throughout your celebration. Wedding mornings begin in the Elderberry Studio, a professional salon-style bridal retreat featuring multiple styling stations, wall-to-wall mirrors, premium beauty lighting, and dedicated electrical circuits that allow multiple hairstylists and makeup artists to work simultaneously without overloaded breakers. The charming Jasmine Bunkhouse provides additional overnight accommodations, allowing up to 22 guests to stay together on the estate.

Celebrate all weekend with rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, cocktail hours, and family brunches in the private Cocktail Garden, while your vendors enjoy the convenience of our fully equipped Catering House with drive-in access, commercial refrigeration, prep space, restaurant sinks, dedicated bar space, and more.

Tables, chairs, linens, elegant event lighting, climate-controlled Luxury Garden Suites, spacious parking, and pet-friendly accommodations (pet fee applies) help make planning simple.

Staying a little longer? We're happy to connect you with trusted local partners for offshore fishing charters, Wild Horse tours, private yoga, in-home massage services, the North Carolina Aquarium, local dining, shopping, and other unforgettable Outer Banks experiences.

At Magnolia Manor, we believe weddings are about more than one beautiful day—they're about creating lifelong memories with the people you love.
Thoughtfully restored and intentionally equipped for weddings—not simply a vacation rental that hosts them.
