History

This industrial space is housed in the Carolina Trust Building, a four-story Classical Revival building that was originally constructed in 1902. Originally home to a string of banks and professionals, the Carolina Trust Building was purchased by McLellan’s dime store in the late 1920s. The store had a huge retail presence in Raleigh’s business district for decades. The first floor contained the main retail areas and the luncheonette, and the upper floors served as stock rooms. The Stockroom at 230 continues the building’s strong tradition of active community uses that has for so long been a part of the Carolina Trust Building.

Beautiful experience!

The Stockroom was a dream! Everyone on staff was so friendly, communicative, and helpful from day one. Everything was transparent and we felt comfortable right away. It was so great to have everything we needed on site, from getting ready to our sendoff. It's a truly beautiful and intimate space, and exactly what we wanted. The Glass Box was a very special place to spend the day getting ready with my bridesmaids, and a lovely airy spot for our first look. Could not be happier with our experience and the memories of our wedding day!

Stunning Venue

The Stockroom at 230 was an absolutely beautiful venue for our wedding! We had so many compliments from guests on the stunning decor and details in the building, friendly staff, and ease of use in downtown Raleigh. Natalie was so helpful, communicative, and kind from the beginning of our venue search to the days after the wedding. The entire team made sure we were taken care of- I cannot say enough good things about the staff. The Glass Box was an incredible place to get ready and take photos with my ladies, and the guys enjoyed their getting ready space too. The space was exactly what we dreamed and would highly recommend. They made it a truly magical day.

Made our Dream Wedding Come True

We just want to say thank you to Natalie and the Stockroom team. My husband and I toured this venue and immediately fell in love with it. Not just with the beauty of the space but also the niceness and professionalism of the team. The communication was amazing. They worked behind the scenes to ensure that our night ran as smoothly as possible (and it did). They were open to our creativity and gave us alternatives to ideas that may not have been okay (hanging heavy things on the wall for example). Our night on March 22, 2024 was perfect, everything we could have imagined and more. Natalie, you are absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for giving us a night that we will always remember. -The Beltons

Great space for our reception!

We had our wedding ceremony at All Saints Chapel and our reception at The Stockroom at 230, and it was very convenient to use both spaces. We loved the layout of the Stockroom, which was convenient for our buffet dinner, dance floor, ice cream for dessert, and bar. Having the Glass Box for getting ready and storing our belongings during the day was also great.

Amazing Venue!

After participating in Weddings and Warehouses and toured The Stockroom, I knew I wanted our reception to be there. We invited 125 people and the space perfectly accommodated that number. It also had the vibe I was going for with the string lights and exposed brick. Natalie was amazing from the beginning-she made the process easy and made sure to check in along the way in our planning. All of our vendors worked amazingly well with the stockroom, which showed the rapport that has been built throughout the community over time. I HIGHLY recommend this venue for your wedding or special event!

The Total Package

My wife and I can't say enough good things about our experience with The Stockroom at 230. We had a particularly long engagement (26 months!), but knew locking down a venue was the most important step. We actually picked the venue from a state away in the thick of the pandemic in early 2021, and we couldn't be happier with how our virtual choice turned out.

The venue boasted an incredibly helpful staff, numerous vendor connections (catering from legit restaurants around Raleigh with a discount? Big time.), and a multitude of use spaces beyond the wonderful main room for ceremony and reception (you've got to look into The Glass Box, a picturesque penthouse/rooftop space perfect for a bride to get ready and for a happy couple to escape to throughout the night).

And y'all, location?? Locking down room blocks with downtown Raleigh hotels ensured our guests could be walking distance from the venue, so no shuttles (or designated drivers) were necessary. Not to mention, after closing out the celebration, we were able to take the party to bars in the Raleigh social district! Oh yeah, lots of great photo opportunities within the venue and the surrounding area too.

Really, The Stockroom at 230 is the whole package. We have the best memories of our time there, and now every time we walk down Fayetteville Street we get a wonderful reminder of our big day. Make sure you choose The Stockroom so you can do the same!

Magical Venue for A Wonderful Wedding

Stockroom 230 was everything we wanted from a venue and the staff was great to work with.

We had a guest count of 125 people and did the ceremony and reception in the space. It was plenty of room to drape off the space during the flip without being too crowded.

We decided to go with Empire Eats for catering - which got us a discount on the venue and the food was delicious. We did BYOB for alcohol - which was a huge money savings - we were very thankful for this option at Stockroom which we didn’t find at many other Raleigh venues.

The staff was helpful and responsive throughout the planning process and during the event itself. Helping us with unique table layouts (as we had 16 farm tables), answer numerous questions, and helping our family/friends during set up and break down. The only thing we would have hoped was different - was getting to clean up our DIY decorations the following morning instead of the night of. This was a bit of a downer for our family who had to stay behind to clean up.

The glass box is a great plus of this venue - we used it for the bridal party to get ready during the day, for pictures, and as an area for the flower girls to be babysat during the reception.

Beautiful venue and great team

I fell in love with the rustic/industrial vibes of Stockroom venue and how gorgeous the Glass Box bridal suite was and knew right away that it was exactly what I wanted for my wedding. We were originally supposed to have our wedding on November 2020 but had to reschedule it twice and the team at Stockroom was so understanding and accommodating about it. I had a great time working with the team at Stockroom. They were great at responding to emails and making sure everything was set for the wedding day.
