Beautiful venue to host our special day!

Firethrone Country Club was a beautiful setting with a great layout for our wedding day. The staff was attentive and accommodating to us and courteous to our guests with excellent service. The banquet menu had a great balance of variety to fit most budgets and was delicious. They provided plenty of time to prep and clean up was a breeze. Overall what we received for the cost came at a very good value. We highly recommend Firethorne as a venue to host your wedding.

I exhausted plenty of reception sites in the Charlotte area, before I finally found Firethorne Country Club in Marvin. At first I thought it would be to far of a drive but the location is absolutely beautitul and I was thrilled to find it was only minutes from our church. Barbara, the wedding coordinator, was fantastic, from the moment I spoke to her on the phone I felt as though she and I had been friends forever. She was wonderful, answering all my questions and sitting down with us on several ocassions to discuss plans and ideas. The location, the building, the service, the people, the food were fantastic. Several of my guests have mentioned to me that they have never been to a more perfect wedding than ours. They loved the facility and they keep raving about our food! I can not recommend this place enough, it was wonderful!!!!

We did some intense research on wedding reception venues in and around Charlotte. Firethorne was the clear winner in terms of 'best value'. The venue itself stands alone in terms of pure beauty being set on a nice golf course with incredible brick/stone exterior. The food was well above average and we are still getting compliments (3 weeks after the wedding) about how great the food was. The best thing was the price that was paid was reasonable, compared to every other venue. Lastly, Barbara Nifong, the wedding coordinator, went above and beyond the call of duty in every regard - from planning, to decorations, to lending us a golf cart to exit the wedding (with a "just married" sign), she put her heart into ensuring our wedding was fabulous. Many people have told us it was the best wedding they have ever been to and we have Barbara to thank for this. We would highly recommend Firethorne to anyone considering their wedding there. You will not be dissappointed.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
