Great experience

The staff was incredibly helpful, and has definitely made our vision come into fruition. Response time is quick, and we booked within three days. We can’t wait until our big day.

I had to plan my wedding with little time and from another state and relied solely on reviews. From the first call Vickie Morrow mafe me feel at ease and responded to my multiple inquiries. I am a little OCD and always felt at ease working with Vickie. God smiled heavily upon us and the weather was perfect for our outdoor ceremony in Alice's Garden. Our reception was in the Burlingtin/Moore ballrooms and ithe rooms were set up exactly as planned...everyime raved about the venue and the food from Nine in the Nines got 5 stars...if you want a taste of Downtown Mooresville and a perfect event space, The Charles Mack Center is the perfect fit.

We just hosted our Wedding and Reception on CMCC. The place and staff were out of this world amazing to work with. I had a lot of very specific visions for our day that required CMCC to be pretty creative and flexible. Kevin, Vickie and Stephanie really went above and beyond to meet our vision. Can not say enough great things about this venue. If you’re considering CMCC for your wedding you can’t go wrong. Another perk was all of the prices were up front, there were no surprises. Thank you

The staff at The Charles Mack Center could not have been nicer or more accommodating for our daughter's wedding and reception. We had plenty of space, facilities were clean and we had everything we needed for our event.

I had my wedding/reception at the Charles Mack Citizen Center on March 18,2017. I chose the venue because it was beautiful AND much more affordable than several others. The staff was extremly helpful and friendly during the entire process of planning our wedding. A huge shout out to venue's Coordinator, Vickie Morrow! She assisted my mother and caterer when picking out the best linens, chairs, decor for our ceremony and reception. She was open to all of our ideas and also gave us great suggestions. The day of the wedding was perfect, and the staff at Charles Mack was on their A-Game. We had our ceremony in Alice Garden (one of the two courtyards at Charles Mack) and our cocktail hour was in Kellys Courtyard. Despite a little rain before our ceremony, it cleared up, the sun came out, and the courtyard was an amazing setting. With the spring flowers beginning to bloom to the fountain in the courtyard, it was truly magical. Our reception was held indoors in the Moore/Burlington/Lowrance rooms. The space was perfect for our 200 guests. I would also recommend using the Chivari chairs that the venues rents out (very fancy looking) and the drapes/fairy lights for the ceiling. They really make the space feel even more romantic and warm. I am so thankful to have had my wedding here and I would highly recommend this place to all brides!!!

The staff at Charles Mack Citizen Center made our wedding a perfect day. We had our ceremony in Alice's Garden and it was just an absolutely beautiful setting. Our reception followed in the Burlington/Moore room. It was the perfect space and exactly what we were looking for to celebrate with our family and friends. Thanks to everyone there!

I had my wedding at the Charles Mack Citizen center and everything was wonderful. Vickie Meadows and the rest of the team were very responsive. I knew if I sent an email I would hear back the same day. We were planning to have an outdoor wedding but because it was so hot that week we changed it to an indoor wedding. Vickie immediately gave me some back up ideas. This venue is very affordable and have a lot of different options. They also hold a bridal fair, which I found very helpful since I was not too familiar with the area. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone who is having an event.

Vickie is awesome - she helped from beginning to end and she knows her stuff!
The outdoor courtyard is BEAUTIFUL - Unfortunately, it rained on my wedding day so we had to go inside (Which is a huge advantage - you have the flexibility to use indoor space if it rains and there is space available.) CMCC is very affordable, and you have a lot more flexibility than most wedding venues, which you will find typically make you use THEIR vendors (in other words, $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!) The only thing to keep in mind with CMCC is that it is a DIY type of venue - all they set up is tables/chairs. If you use their linens, they will set that up as well, but everything else is up to you. (Centerpieces, gift tables, cake table, etc.) I was fortunate to have my dad, father-in-law, sister and dad's friend to help with the set up! If you have a lot to set up, make sure you have people who you can enlist for help! I saved money by buying plastic tablecloths ($1 each) instead of renting their linens and they didn't look bad at all! The people working there on the day of for set up were awesome and very helpful and accommodating. My husband and I had a budget of $5,000 for the entire wedding - it was beautiful and we made it work!! If you are trying to keep it cheap, but still have a BEAUTIFUL wedding, Charles Mack Citizen Center should DEFINITELY be on your list!
