unique, beautiful, and unforgettable

We adored our HRB wedding! The HRB is such a unique and beautiful space. Don't write it off as too large for an intimate wedding either; we only had maybe 65 guests and could not imagine our wedding taking place anywhere else in the world! The HRB's whole staff is a group of superheroes and we adored working with every one of them, we could not thank the HRB and its staff enough for our special day! A special thanks to Karina for being so kind and supportive toward us!

Dreamy & funky venue… perfect for live music lovers!

Our wedding at the Haw River Ballroom turned out better than I ever could have imagined. It’s funky and cool during the day, but at night with candles and disco ball and mood lighting it is MAGIC. Karina was wonderful to work with, and the team pulled out an incredible result even though due to a hurricane the power was out until right before we started!! Since it is a music venue, the band sounded incredible. That said, it came with a few logistical issues to maneuver around: no real space for getting ready (we just used our hotel), and need buses for guests due to lack of Ubers or close lodging. Those were well worth it for us. If you are looking for something different yet beautiful, and especially if you’re hiring a band, this is your venue!!

AWESOME venue that captures the best of NC!

We had attended events at the HRB and always thought it would be an amazing place to get married - and it exceeded our expectations! Patti Gallivan, who leads events there and also served as our coordinator, was an absolute delight and so helpful throughout planning. The catering was delicious, the lighting/sound was incredible, and our guests (especially out-of-towners) couldn't say enough about this beautiful, historic space.
