Bespoke space
We learned of Forest Hall from my MIL who had gone to a wedding there. When we got engaged we went for a tour and booked! They gave us a first responder discount, which was incredibly thoughtful. They also told us that they were renovating their bridal suite! The price point of the venue was perfect and the included chairs and gorgeous farm tables makes it even better. There are beautiful market lights that add the perfect ambiance to the space. The huge windows and original wood floors are beautiful. Greg and Danielle were amazing to work with and we appreciate how flexible and responsive they were. They had little touches in the bridal suite for all your emergency needs. You can also add on the lounge area for the groom and groomsmen. It is attached to The Sycamore, the restaurant next door (which is so good and you need to try as well). That space is perfect for the guys to hang out before the ceremony and makes for great photos. If you are looking for an outdoor ceremony they have a lovely space outside to accommodate! I cannot recommend Forest Hall enough!-

Beautiful Historic Venue
I want to thank everyone at Forest Hall for making sure my daughter's wedding was a success. I luckily found this venue when trying to find a location for our celebration. Greg and his staff were excellent. They provided recommendations and flexibility as we were planning the event, and on the big day they made sure every detail was top notch. I highly recommend them! -

Beautiful, cozy, and flexible
From our first tour of Forest Hall, my husband and I knew it was the venue for us. The space is beautiful and customizable, but more importantly the staff and ownership are kind, caring, and fantastic at their jobs. Our entire family and bridal party were impressed with the venue manager, Danielle's, efficiency and organization, and how well she kept our rehearsal and wedding day running smoothly. Danielle, Greg, and their team are some of the best in the business, and they made sure our wedding was every bit as beautiful as we had imagined and then some. -

Perfect wedding
My son and his wife were married here last Saturday. I cannot say enough about the entire staff. From set up to food to making sure everyone was where they needed to be, they were incredible. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to host an event! -

Super unique venue with great charm!
My husband and I got married at Forest this past spring. We planned our wedding in a little over 6 months. The venue was extremely flexible with our timing and Danielle, our coordinator, was amazing to work with. She and her assistant decorated the night before and day of which made it stress free for us and our friends and family. The outdoor games were great and we rented the lounge set - our guests loved it. Highly recommend! -

A venue that has everything you need in one spot!
Forest Hall is a wedding venue that can adapt to indoor or outdoor needs, offers a mix of historical, vintage, rustic and industrial, and provides a private, secluded option for any set up you wish. The staff and catering are awesome- so helpful and kind throughout the process- and flexible to meet needs and wishes. Highly recommend! -

Absolutely Perfect!
This venue was a dream! I used their in-house catering service, as well as their in-house wedding coordinator and I was absolutely thrilled with how it turned out. My coordinator was Danielle Connor and she was kind, organized and fun to work with! The venue is clean and gorgeous. The food was delicious. I would highly recommend this venue. -

Wonderful venue & staff!
Forest Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding. The team was so helpful, accommodating, professional, and responsive from the day we toured. It was more than worth the price & our wedding turned out more perfect than we could’ve ever imagined! Special thanks to Jessica for helping us coordinate and plan leading up to the big day. Also— the food through 39West was to die for! We received so many compliments on how great the food was (and the venue)! 10/10 recommend! -

Amazing Venue & Owner
When we first visited Forest Hall when we were shopping around for wedding venues, it was recently under new ownership. The new owner, Greg, showed us around and shared his vision for how the place could look a year later when our wedding would be. We're so happy we selected Forest Hall for our wedding.
The space was perfect for us. The exposed brick and wooden floor and tables were lovely. We loved having a dining area, a dance floor in another room, and an amazing outdoor space for the reception, cocktail hour, corn hole, and a chance to get away from the dance party inside. The venue also served us very well for the Rehearsal and Rehearsal Dinner.
Greg was especially helpful coordinating everything with many of our vendors to get the rentals taken care of, including the tableware, tent, and lights. Greg was incredibly helpful and so great to work with throughout this entire process. Between Greg and our Event Planner (Timeless Events NC), so many things got taken care of that we simply did not have to worry about on our special day, and we're so grateful for all the help you provided.
Highly Recommended! -

Beautiful industrial venue with so many options!
I got married here in October 2019. This venue is the best. We absolutely loved the style of the venue, the versatility, and the natural beauty! We felt like we barely had to decorate at all because the space was so beautiful on its own. Exposed wood beams, wood floors, cream walls, and farm lights. It was just so pretty. They also include these incredible farm tables in the rental of the space that made us so happy. We did not want ugly plastic tables with tablecloths, so having these beautiful custom farm tables for our guests just made the space perfect. It looked so classy and put together. Loved it. The outdoor space is where we had our ceremony and it was beautiful and versatile. We love Forest Hall and the owner, Aneesa. She's a gem!-

The wedding venue of dreams!
We absolutely LOVED having our wedding at Forest Hall. The space was warm and welcoming with plenty of flexibility for outdoor and indoor options. The owners of the space were very accommodating and flexible - we were able to visit the venue multiple times during our engagement to test out different decorations and layouts. Forest Hall was also a winner in terms of value - the venue rental price is very reasonable and includes tables and chairs. The location is so naturally beautiful that you don't need many decorations, which is also quite cost effective. Also - pictures in this space are BEAUTIFUL. Lighting is gorgeous, the colors come together richly, and you cannot beat the buildings' old character (those original hardwood floors are to die for!).
Both my fiance and I have said that we'd get married at Forest Hall again in a heartbeat. -- it will be a place that will always hold a special place in our hearts. -

Beautiful Wedding in a Beautiful Venue
This venue is beautiful! During the day, it is naturally lit, and the windows are absolutely stunning. At night, the market lighting makes for an intimate and homey environment. The chairs and tables are beautifully crafted as well, and match the decor of the space well. Acoustically, everyone could hear any speeches or really music clearly, and the sounds turned out well in videos as well. Our wedding was in the winter, so we didn’t use the outside space, except for photos — and from our experience, there’s a great diversity of awesome places to take stunning photos in. The dance floor was a great size as well. Finally, the Forest Hall Staff made sure our day was perfect by setting up everything we needed, and the place was in perfect condition. All in all, a great experience at an amazing venue! -

Checked all our boxes and then some!
Forest Hall was the first venue I checked out when we started planning; I had four other venue tours scheduled that week, but every tour after that just made me more certain that we’d already found our sweet spot. It checked every box we had and others we hadn’t even thought about yet: lots of big beautiful windows to let in natural light, romantic market lights for after dark, separate spaces for both ceremony and reception, gorgeous indoor AND outdoor space, fabulous farmhouse tables and chairs – the list goes on. The place gave me butterflies. Another important detail – the venue manager, Aneesa, is probably the sweetest and friendliest human being you’ll ever meet. I had a lot of questions as this was the beginning of our planning process, and she was amazingly helpful from the get-go. She positively exudes enthusiasm and a genuine desire to help you have the best possible experience – not just on your wedding day, but throughout the process of planning for it. After we booked, I started following the Forest Hall Instagram, and it was evident that Aneesa and her team absolutely pour themselves into every wedding, and into making this venue the best it can be. There were ongoing improvements leading up to our wedding (a dimmer for the market lights, newly sanded and stained farm tables), which just made me more excited and confident in our choice. I’ve been gushing about Forest Hall since we booked it and haven’t stopped even now that that wedding is over. In fact, my new sister-in-law and her fiancee loved it so much that they booked it for their wedding in May. We can’t wait to celebrate love and family all over again in this magical place!-

Forest Hall at Chatham Mills is the absolute best!
My husband and I got married at Forest Hall at Chatham Mills a week ago today!! We are still swooning over how perfect our day was. When we first toured Forest Hall we immediately fell in love and knew it was the venue for us! We love the industrial look with just a little bit of rustic. This venue provides the beautiful farm tables as well as chairs and the cute market lights plus so much more!! We love that Forest Hall also allowed us to choose our own vendors and make it what we wanted. We would recommend Forest Hall to everyone we know, we had the best experience! Also, check out their open houses that is where we found most of our amazing vendors! -

Perfect Venue!
Forest Hall was exactly what my fiancé and I were looking for. It has stunning old factory windows that really set the mood. Beautiful wood floors and large farm tables were a huge selling point for us. The industrial overhead lights were stunning as well. This venue has so many photo opportunities come rain or shine. It also has several ceremony and reception options. Forest hall was the perfect venue!-

Forest Hall at Chatham Mills-- The perfect Venue!
Forest Hall at Chatham Mills was the perfect venue for my wedding reception! The owners are wonderful to work with and were very flexible in scheduling walk throughs for us. I love the exposed brick, all of the natural light, the beautiful farmhouse tables that are included with the rental, and all of the nooks that could be used for DJ, cake, photo booth, caterer, etc! I also love that there are two "sides" of the venue that can be used as a dance floor area, dining area, ceremony area, really whatever you would like! I don't think I could have picked a more beautiful venue-- everything was clean and set up just perfectly! -

NOT Only For Weddings!!!
I had a surprise birthday party at Forest Hall - one for the books! The venue was simply perfect - rustic and elegant, spacious, the natural light made the space bright and cheery. Held 140 guests very comfortably. Aneesa and Hannah were a joy to work with, and no detail was too small to work through with them. Their flexibility and calming demeanor helped make the planning and the day of the event go off without a hitch! Cannot WAIT for the NEXT significant life event to celebrate there!-

Do not pass up!
My husband and I found Forest Hall 2 years ago and we were SO excited to be getting married there 2 years later. Every step of the way has been easy with Aneesa (venue owner) and her team. The venue is breathtakingly STUNNING, not to mention all the upgrades that have recently been added. There is plenty of room for the dance floor to get bumping and also other people to sit and just enjoy the wedding. Also, the grounds are beautiful and some of our guests chose to stay outside and play games. Whatever your needs and wants are, 100% Forest Hall can deliver. We cannot say thank you enough and there are no words to describe how special Forest Hall made our wedding.-

40th Birthday!
In August 2018, I had the opportunity to celebrate my husband's 40th at Forest Hall at Chatham Mills. My entire experience from the minute that I first contacted Aneesa through our last e-mail exchange after the event, was amazing. Aneesa was extremely professional, knowledgeable, flexible and pleasant. She made sure our event was exactly what we wanted it to be and the venue itself was a magical place for our most intimate friends and family to come together for this very special occasion. We sincerely appreciate EVERYTHING and look forward to working with you again in the near future Aneesa! -

Forest Hall TRULY is Incredible
I would wholeheartedly recommend choosing Forest Hall for your special event. I truly do not think a more beautiful venue or more caring team exists.
We had our wedding here in May 2019. Here are some of the reasons we love Forest Hall.
**The Team is Awesome** We met Aneesa on our first visit to Forest Hall at an Open House (which we definitely recommend attending!) and Tara was our event-day host. Their optimism, enthusiasm, and professionalism are amazing. Aneesa answered questions honestly & helpfully, made time for us, and encouraged us. Tara connected with our families at the event (and is one of my MIL's new favorite people, now!). When I asked my husband what he wanted me to include in this review he said, "The staff, to me, is what sets them apart." The team is so genuinely kind and also knowledgeable; they bring the energy you want surrounding your wedding!
**It's Gorgeous, Y'all.** We looked at lots of really beautiful spaces in Durham, Raleigh, Hillsborough, and Chapel Hill. Forest Hall was the last place we looked because it immediately exceeded the others. As other people have said, it does not even require a lot of decoration because its stunning on its own. I would describe it --- but seriously, just go look at their photos and soak it up! Or set up a tour! :)
**Flexibility** Forest Hall provided us a lot of flexibility. They offered access to the space throughout planning. We could bring any vendors we preferred. We could use outdoor and indoor spaces on the event day. They allowed us to drop off larger items early since the space was not used the prior evening. There are so many different ways to layout your event & the team will gladly share ideas. We loved getting to customize our event to suit our personalities!
**It's an Inclusive Venue** Or, as we say, "Y'all means ALL y'all". I love that Forest Hall makes it clear they would be honored to host events for all community members. Everyone receives their warm welcome.
**Value** When I first started researching, I could not believe the price tags attached to many wedding venues. Forest Hall allowed us to have the wedding our of dreams without feeling stressed or guilty about the financial aspect. In addition to pricing their venue affordably, they will gladly provide advice on other budget-friendly wedding planning ideas.
We could not say enough wonderful things about our experience here & would 100% recommend you look closely at Forest Hall for your event! -

Amazing Wedding Venue!
Last year after my husband and I got engaged, we narrowed down our wedding venue choices to visit in person to 6 in the Raleigh Durham Triangle area. Forest Hall happened to be having an open house during our visit day, and it was by far the top choice for both us. We almost hesitated because we thought the distance was a little far out at first, but I'm so glad that we didn't! The venue really was not that far from our host hotel in Chapel Hill, and was a straight shot to drive to. Being able to choose our own vendors for everything really sold us on this venue! We ended up using a lot of their recommendations for vendors, but also brought in our own choices as well, which really made our wedding magical! Aneesa, the venue owner was so easy to work with throughout the process, and was quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had! She also made quite a few upgrades to the venue before this year's wedding season that were definitely an added bonus! Having planned our wedding and found a vendor 11 months out, I was nervous that during the walk-through I might have second thoughts or regrets, but I absolutely didn't!!
The day of our wedding was perfect! The beauty of the rustic/industrial setting is unmatched, and the beautiful tree out back was the perfect setting for our outdoor ceremony! The venue size was easily able to accommodate our wedding size of about 140. We loved having the separate room from the dinner tables to use for cocktail hour and later on the reception. Our Forest Hall venue host, was fabulous! She made sure that we had everything we needed for the entire wedding day, and she was so much fun! In addition, Forest Hall does make you hire a day of coordinator, which is absolutely necessary. You don't have to choose their company, Harmony Weddings, but you should because they are amazing as well!
If you want a beautiful wedding setting with rustic or industrial style, high ceilings, beautiful wooden floors, great floor plan, neutral palates, great people to work with, and flexibility, this is your venue!!!

The Best Team for an Amazing Venue
There is not a single thing I would change about my wedding at Forest Hall last weekend! From the beautiful industrial beams to the tall open ceilings to the rustic farm tables and chairs to the and quiet cozy bridal room, the venue is perfect for anyone who wants a magical day. The wide windows let in the perfect light into the Hall for your ceremony and as night comes, the market lights, which come with the venue, make everything so romantic. The walk out to the car, which we did with a sparkler exit, is so beautiful for photos with the venue gleaming behind you with the lights on. But by far, what is best about Forest Hall is the incredible team that is there to support you and take care of you AND your family! Bethany and Aneesa from Harmony Wedding are the most amazing planners, who, of course, are incredibly organized and detailed and patient, but also are just fantastic human beings who checked in on my family and my husband’s family to make sure we are all enjoying the day. Even though it suddenly started raining in the middle of the ceremony-which threw off our plans for an outdoor cocktail hour with a food truck-Aneesa and Bethany went out back and forth to the truck themselves to serve the food to all our guests, who stayed indoors for cocktails while the rest of the team flipped the reception hall. Bethany made sure I was eating (and drinking :)) and I had so much fun the whole night. Don’t even hesitate to work with Forest Hall- it will be the best decision you’ll ever make! -

Dream wedding venue!
Forest Hall at Chatham Mills is absolutely gorgeous with ample photo opportunities! Having both inside and outside space gives you endless backdrops that will allow you to bring out your own personal flair. My husband and I took plenty of photos by the water tower, the building, and even in the woods!
The indoor space is fantastic for a variety of activities! We had about 110 guests and it felt intimate, but not crowded. We had plenty of space for a photobooth (with a line out the door all night), a DJ with karaoke, and a bar. People were dancing and singing all night!
The bridal suite is absolutely perfect for getting ready and hanging out! We had 6 of us there along with our wonderful makeup and hair artists and had plenty of space and fun. The suite really made me feel like a celebrity because my coordinator could hide me in there to make sure everything stayed on the timeline. It also gives you a great backdrop for singing your license afterwards!
Forest Hall's staff is really what sets this venue apart, though! Aneesa and team are the best in the industry. They help you keep everything in check to really throw your dream wedding. Every vendor I chose could not speak higher of the crew here. The best advice I can give anyone in planning their perfect wedding is to choose vendors that you can build a personal relationship with. My guests still cannot stop raving about how wonderful the experience was, and it wouldn't have been half as fantastic if we had chosen a different venue. We were very hesitant to have a big wedding and wanted to elope, but after how well this event went I would highly suggest to anyone looking to tie the knot to throw the party of a lifetime at a beautiful and unique venue! -

The Perfect Choice
I fell in love with Forest Hall after being invited to their very first open house. As a wedding planner myself, I've had exposure to many beautiful wedding venues in my career but there was something uniquely special about Forest Hall and I knew when it was my time to get married, it had to be there! If the perfect balance of industrial chic and southern charm wasn't enough, Aneesa and her team are simply the best. From the very beginning they worked with me to execute my wedding vision perfectly. When my wedding day finally came, I didn't have to worry about a thing, and it was so comforting as a planner to be able to sit back and enjoy my day stress free.
I have also worked with several other brides to execute their wedding day at Forest Hall and it has always been an enjoyable experience. Even if you have never been to Pittsboro, NC it's worth the drive to check out Forest Hall if you are a bride/groom to be. You will not be disappointed!-

We loved having our wedding at Forest Hall - it is a beautiful venue in itself with a million different decorating options and Aneesa is the most amazing host/owner. She was so responsive to questions and concerns and a lovely person to talk to! Loved all the vendor recommendations on their website and all the personalization options Aneesa offers to couples. We would 100% choose Forest Hall again and recommend to anyone! -

The perfect location for our perfect day!
When I found Forest Hall in the massive search for a location that both fit our budget and was authentic to the feel we were looking for, I really thought it had to be too good to be true. It is even better! The venue has everything you could need for your guest comfort in a beautiful setting. The wood floors, exposed brick, large windows, and market lights all create the perfect ambiance! To top it all, the team is outstanding. I had zero worries leading up to our big day because they are so thorough and kind. I literally can't say enough about how wonderful everything turned out! -

The most beautiful venue!
Even before my husband and I were engaged, we discussed what kind of venue we may want, and we both really liked the restored mill look. By pure luck, my husband happened to see Forest Hall on the internet one day, though it was still very new! We were SO excited about it, and he had actually surprised me and set up a tour for the weekend after we got engaged. I think we pretty much expected to fall in love with it in person, and we did — from the quality of service of the owners to the beautiful, natural look of the venue itself, it was the perfect choice for us. We loved having the freedom to pick our own vendors but also having guidance of recommended ones from their website, and decorating the beautiful space was so easy, since it looks amazing even without it. I know Forest Hall is always constantly improving, and I can’t wait to see the future weddings there. If you want a beautiful, rustic venue in the Triangle, I’d never stop recommending this to you.-

Beautiful Industrial Venue
Venue is absolutely stunning with hardwood flooring, industrial windows, brick walls, and gorgeous outdoor area for photography. You do not need to decorate the venue up that much because it already has a ton of character. Additionally, there are two sides of this venue so there is no need for a ceremony-reception flip. Venue owners were extremely accomodating, helping us set up our rehearsal dinner at the last minute. We wouldn't change a thing about our wedding venue! -

Gorgeous Venue with Amazing Team
Working with Aneesa and her team was such a great experience. They were so knowledgeable about everything, down to the tiniest of details. Aneesa is exactly what you would want in a wedding planner: responsive, full of ideas, accommodating and just an absolute pleasure to be around!
The venue is absolutely stunning. The space can truly be made into any vision that you have, and I could not have been happier with how everything turned out. All of Aneesa's vendor recommendations were great and on the day on the wedding, everything came together flawlessly.-

Lindsey Tripp- 12/30/18
This venue is absolutely gorgeous!! Aneesa and her team did such an amazing job making sure everything was perfect for our big day from setting up all our decorations to bringing us drinks and food while we took pictures and met with our guests. Throughout our engagement, Aneesa was always there to answer any questions we had and give us excellent recommendations for other vendors. She responds quickly and always makes sure to answer any questions you might have. I loved getting ready in the bridal suite with my bridesmaids and just being able to relax in the gorgeous space. Our wedding day was such a dream and thanks to the Forest Hall team it ran seamlessly. I can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day so incredibly special. They are truly the kindest, sweetest people and their gorgeous venue is perfect in every way. -

Perfect Day
My husband, Jessie, and I were married at Forest Hall on 11/17/18 and we couldn't have asked for a better venue and team! We instantly fell in love with the industrial feel, the hardwood floors, the wood beams, the market lights ... the list could go on. However, what really sold it for us was Aneesa. She is a ray of light and always made us feel supported and taken care of. Anytime we would mention her name to any other vendors the first words out of their mouths were always "Aneesa is the greatest" and "you're in the best hands". They couldn't have been more right. She never steered us wrong with her vendor suggestions and was always quick to respond to our questions or calm our worries. The day of went as smoothly as possible thanks to Aneesa and her team. If you're looking for the best planner and/or venue in the RDU area look no further! -

Amazing Venue & Team!
My husband, Jimmy, and I got married at Forest Hall Nov. 10 of this year and Forest Hall was the most perfect venue we could have asked for! The venue itself is stunning - we loved the huge windows that made for awesome lighting in our photos, the exposed brick, the historic hardwoods, and the market lighting. The venue includes so much that others did not - including a bridal suite with plenty of mirrors and outlets for getting ready, market lights, farmhouse tables and curtains/drapes between the two rooms. Every other venue that we considered either charged an additional fee for these features or you had to rent them separately yourself. The layout of the venue was also great for hosting both ceremony and reception. We had our ceremony on one side and dinner on the other and then flipped the ceremony side to be our dance floor, which worked out perfectly. Bethany and Daryl made sure the flip was seamless as well.
The grounds of Chatham mills are beautiful and there are SO MANY great picture spots. I ended up taking my bridal portraits at the venue as well because of this reason. The trees/leaves in November are stunning!
Lastly, Aneesa, Bethany, and Daryl were all amazing to work with. Most of the vendors we booked were through Forest Hall's list of recommended vendors and each of them were so excited to do our wedding at Forest Hall because of the amazing staff. Bethany and Aneesa were super responsive to emails and texts and made sure the day went perfectly. The venue was set-up exactly how I dreamed and looked stunning the day of our wedding. Bethany coordinated our wedding and I can't say enough about how amazing she was. Our friends and family have not stopped talking about how unique and beautiful the venue was and we will definitely be recommending Forest Hall to all our friends looking for a wedding or event venue! -

Flexible, Industrial Space With Tons of Charm
When we toured Forest Hall for the first time there was an instant connection. The indoor space is full of character, it's inviting, and it gave us a sense of calm we fully embraced. There is so much flexibility with how the space can be used, not to mention no required vendors! We opted for a majority indoor event because we loved it so much and didn’t feel like we were sacrificing anything for pictures because of the amazing natural light that comes in through the wall to wall steel glass windows. The industrial history of Forest Hall is but not overpowering and is instantly softened and modernized with some greenery.
Just like the space itself, the staff at Forest Hall is hard to beat—it was so easy for us to let go on our wedding day because we knew we were supported by fabulous people. Forest Hall goes above and beyond, not because they have to but because they want to. We had Polaroid cameras floating around to act as a photo booth and the staff took it upon themselves to walk around all night taking candids of all our guests. We were floored when we got back 200+ amazing shots of our family and friends having a ball. Another thing we really appreciated was how well Forest Hall worked with all of our vendors; it’s obvious they value community and partnership. Above all else, we had a *perfect* day at our wedding. If there were any hiccups we were none the wiser which meant we were able to just let loose and have the best day ever. Thank you Forest Hall, we are forever grateful!

The BEST experience
The entire staff here is fantastic! Our venue host was kind and helpful during our daughter’s wedding. Anissa always answered our questions in a timely manner and was always gracious when asked the same thing a second time. The venue is GORGEOUS (pictures don’t do it justice) and the environment is perfect. We would absolutely recommend it to any and everyone. -

Beautiful Venue, Amazing Staff, Perfect Wedding
Our wedding at Forest Hall at Chatham Mills was nothing short of perfect. The venue is the perfect mix of intimate, industrial, and natural and we loved having both our ceremony and reception in the same convenient location. Aneesa was a dream to work with - so responsive, helpful, and patient - she made the entire planning process a breeze. I would 10/10 recommend this venue to any bride. -

Forest Hall at Chatham Mills was the perfect wedding venue for us! Aneesa is such a sweet person and was a joy to work with! From the beginning when we took our first tour to the day of our wedding, she was so helpful. She provided reassurance and suggestions when I needed them! The venue is stunning!! I was a bride on a budget and Forest hall enabled me to have the wedding of my dreams without breaking the bank! The atmosphere is so amazing that very little is needed in decor. A little goes a long way! The bridal suite was so comfortable and nice to spend time in as I prepped for my big day. We got so many compliments about the venue we chose. The hardwood floors, market lights, exposed brick, the farm tables, etc. made for such an amazing space! We did an outdoor ceremony by the big sycamore tree and it was beautiful! I could not be happier that we chose Forest Hall as our venue. I wish I could have my wedding again and again there... it was simply amazing!-

The venue is simply stunning. The moment I saw it in person, I knew we’d had to go with it. The price was great and now includes the gorgeous farm tables! The venue is so beautiful in itself you don’t have to use a lot of decor unless you want to. The market lights that come with it were my favorite, they just add that special touch! It also has the perfect spaces for outdoor or indoor ceremony sites and has special places around the venue to capture some gorgeous photos. Aneesa and Nathan were such a pleasure to work with. They were quick to reply and answer any and all questions. This place and these people are what you need to help make any special occasion the absolute best! -

Forest Hall is gorgeous; we got so many compliments on it. It's the perfect combination of indoor and outdoor, large but not too large, and rustic but not too rustic. Aneesa was very flexible in letting us decide at the last minute (because of weather) whether we wanted to move our ceremony indoors or not. We were even able to have the food truck we wanted because of the unique layout of the venue - something many venues didn't allow for! Having the store next door and the hallway with the benches on it also allowed for more introverted family members to take a break from dancing but still have a place to go. I have a feeling this place is going to explode in popularity soon, so I feel incredibly lucky we were able to get it when we did. -

Oh my goodness!! Are you looking for a beautiful indoor ceremony? Or an incredible outdoor ceremony with dozens our beautiful locations for life long lasting memories and photographs? How about market lights and industrial but still modern country feels for an incredible wedding ceremony or reception? You found it!!! Forest Hall just gave the absolute best of all worlds for location and what it was able to provide for us. We wanted an outdoor wedding and area for games, we also wanted an indoor location for back up for heat or rain. We wanted something would wood and brick interior that could help escalate the southern atmosphere of Pittsboro NC to our yankee guests while still looking nice with our Star Wars theme! And everything was just incredible! There are so many hidden gem locations in forest Hall for photos! -

Aneesa is such a wonderful soul to work with! As soon as I met her, I knew that I wanted to have my wedding at Forest Hall not only because of the beautiful place but because I loved her bubbly sweet personality. She has remained in contact with us throughout the planning process although we live 5 hours away. Forrest Hall is the best bang for your buck! The venue is SO pretty and a perfect spot to hold a wedding. Thanks so much for everything! -

Forest Hall was the PERFECT wedding venue for us! Every meeting we had to discuss details, I left knowing what needed to be done and knowing I had a partner in Aneesa who would ensure that every detail was taken care of. She is passionate about what she does and about her clients. She will go above and beyond to make sure that her brides' visions come true. The best part about this venue was knowing that there would be no hidden fees and no required vendors. Their dedication to their couple's visions extends into the way the venue is run and ensures that you as a couple can have exactly the kind of wedding you want without breaking the bank. Working with Aneesa was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process and we would recommend Forest Hall to anyone! -

I had the pleasure of coordinating a wedding at this beautiful venue. The venue itself is spacious, classic and beautiful. I love how versatile this venue was, we had to option to perform the ceremony indoors or outdoors. At the last minute we decided to have the ceremony inside and Aneesa went above and beyond to accommodate us. When I arrived the day of, everything was set up perfectly.
The prep kitchen was huge allowing me to store a lot of overflow food and drinks. I was thrilled to learn that the venue offered the use of a refrigerator, this was a plus after finding out that I had cupcakes that needed to stay cold.
The Bridal Suite was beautiful and made for beautiful pictures and really made the bride feel special.
Catherine was the on-site venue manager and she was awesome. She was always visible and available to help with anything. She also went above and beyond to ensure that the bride and her guest were happy, she even bustled the brides dress! I was amazed at how helpful she was.
It was wonderful working with both Aneesa and Catherine and coming from a vendor’s perspective I would highly suggest Forest hall.

Magical! This is the best word to describe our wedding day. This venue is so spectacular. They are so flexible and easy to work with. You can really spend as little or as much as you want so it was great for us as we were on a pretty tight budget. The venue is so beautiful we didn't have to do much with decor, just flowers and candles. Simply stunning. I would recommend it to any and everyone. The only thing I would change is maybe having it for a couple more hours so the fun could have lasted just a little bit longer. -

I cannot express how beautiful this venue is! It is great for indoor or outdoor weddings and every spot will get you an amazing picture! Very beautiful! I could probably go on and on about how beautiful both the wedding and reception at my wedding were, but pictures are so much better! Go to Forest Hall at Chatham Mills’ website to see many gorgeous pictures! I have attached some myself! (Photos by Thistle and Sun Photography)-

Forest Hall at Chatham Mills was the perfect venue for our daughter's wedding. She had a criteria list and Forest Hall met the criteria. Compared to other venues it was inexpensive, it had farm wood tables, a rustic appeal to it, permanent lights that drape from ceiling, white sheer panels that puddle on the floor, space to have the ceremony outside but should there be inclement weather ( it was wonderful to know we could have a plan B if plan A was not possible due to weather) there was ample space to have the ceremony inside, wonderful setting outside to have guest to enjoy the outdoors while pictures are being taken, space for a dance floor, ample space for the different vendors, bridal suite, plenty of parking for guest and last but not least .......it had Aneesa and her wonderful professional staff with all their experience ! They were wonderful and very easy to work with it. We felt at ease about the entire event because of them! Everything we requested was followed through on in a very promptly manner.
It is a great venue with all the benefits of very expensive venues! You can not go wrong with this venue or staff!

My experience at Forest Hall with Aneesa and Nathan was beyond wonderful. They we so helpful and knowledgeable. They were willing to do whatever we asked and we asked a lot, our wedding was non-traditional. I can’t recommend this place or these people highly enough. I hope the rest of my kids get married there-just 5 to go! -

Forest hall made all my wedding venue dreams come true. The space is not only beyond gorgeous, but it worked perfectly with the flow of my wedding. Aneesa and Nathan, the venue coordinators, are INCREDIBLE! I can’t say enough good things about them. They know the venue inside and out and went out of their way to help make my wedding at Forest Hall gorgeous and stress-free. They explained all the layout possibilities and helped me figure out the best options based on what I wanted for my wedding.
The price is beyond reasonable, especially considering both for the amount of space and the comparison with similar venues! I also saved a bunch of money because I needed significantly less decorations since the space is already beautiful with the market lights, stunning wood floors, exposed brick, and giant windows. It’s amazing to have the outdoor/indoor possibilities! We ultimately decided to do both the ceremony and venue inside, but we loved having the option to have the ceremony outside. There are gorgeous places to take pictures outside and all over the property. Forest Hall has everything we wanted and more!
I would have my wedding at this venue again in a heartbeat.-

With the help of amazing Nathan and Aneesa my sister hosted her wedding at the beautiful venue, Forest Hall. The venue has so much character and the minimalistic and rustic decoration that Aneesa and Nathan put together was perfect and fully reflected my sister’s and brother-in-law’s vision. Forest hall had great parking spaces for guests and a good size grass field if a couple wants an outdoor wedding ceremony. The inside is big enough to host both the ceremony, dinner and a dance party if it rains. (I know this because Anessa and Nathan made it work effortlessly.)
Both Aneesa and Nathan are a joy to work with! They are kind, organized, proffesional and trustworthy. I really believe because of them the bride and groom could fully relax and enjoy their big day.
I fully recommend Forest Hall and Harmony Weddings for anyone who is looking for an amazing power duo. -

I highly recommend any couple planning their wedding to reach out to Nathan and Anissa. I've worked with Nathan and Anissa to coordinate multiple weekend training seminars for over 100 people. They are great to work with! With their experience and support, everything went smoothly and better than expected. Nathan and Anissa gave a lot of time and attention to me and all of my questions. In addition to giving countless hours on site before and at the seminars, they were very responsive, always a phone call or text away. Their positive, patient, and encouraging attitude was so helpful when I would get stressed out with all of the details and big picture ideas. Nathan and Anissa go above and beyond!

I can't say enough about Nathan and Aneesa. They perfect the balance between professionalism and the feeling of a friend or family member planning your wedding. I had a completely DIY wedding with the exception of having food catered and didn't really know what all I was getting myself into. Throughout the process they were always happy to meet up which always left us feeling de-stressed, organized and with a renewed excitement for the process. Ultimately they turned our patchwork into a seamless, flowing, stress-free wedding day. They were flexible with setup and helped with decorations. Our cake caterer was a no-show, yet none of our guests had the chance to notice because Nathan rushed out to (the only) bakery that was still open and saved the dessert disaster! Aneesa was always so bright and bubbly even while juggling so many tasks and curveballs the day of. They were professional, warm, highly responsive, incredibly patient with our less-than-high responsiveness, put so much care into everything they did - the list goes on. We were truly lucky to have stumbled into them and are incredibly grateful for their tireless efforts. Needless to say I highly recommend them! Thanks so much for making our wedding day wonderful Nathan and Aneesa! -

My husband and I got married in this gorgeous venue last summer. We found it by chance several years back when we were first dating, and I remember being so transfixed by the way the light came into the space so beautifully through those tall, glass windows. At the time, I didn't realize it was a wedding venue but the thought of getting married one day in such a place crossed my mind. Once we were engaged, we looked at several venues around the area, but somehow every time we would tour a new one our minds always managed to find their way back to this special place. There is something quite beautiful in the rawness it holds; somewhere amongst its rugged wooden beams and exposed brick walls, its tall glass windows and fairy lights, it managed to capture our hearts.

We hosted our son’s wedding at Forest Hall at Chatham Mills and it was beautiful in so many ways. Simple elegance and beauty in the historic venue and the surrounding grounds are amazing - where we enjoyed our drinks and hors d’oeurves and took stunning pictures amongst the trees and natural surroundings. We were also lucky enough to book Aneesa and Nathan from Harmony Wedding that took care of all the last details and allowed me the gift of totally relaxing and enjoying my son and daughter-in-laws most special day! Aneesa and Nathan are top notch and we did not feel as though we had wedding planners but close and dear friends who loved celebrating this special day with us. -

Forest hall at Chatham hills was an amazing venue. As I was able to see the venue for my best friends wedding before and after it's set up you could see the amount of love and care both Aneesa and Nathan gave to creating a venue for the wedding. I was in awe of the space and how much attention to detail was given by Aneesa to ensure everything looked and felt wonderful! Love the venue and seeing Aneesa and Nathan imbue the space with beauty! -

Aneesa and Nathan went above and beyond in making sure our daughter and son-n-law's wedding day was beautiful. They did an amazing job and exceeded our expectations. We are so very thankful, and truly appreciate every extra special touch they added to perfectly capture my daughter and son-n-law's vision for their wedding day. We also met Nathan's mom, Lisa, who was so sweet, thoughtful and was kind enough to assist in anyway she could to help make the day memorable for all of us. Thank you Aneesa and Nathan, for your outstanding services! -

Nathan and Aneesa were very flexible and easy to work with for my wedding this past April, 2017. They made themselves available whenever I wanted to come to the property and were so pleasant during every interaction. The day of my wedding it rained nonstop, but their spacious kitchen and downstairs area eliminated stress from the weather and allowed us to have an indoor reception for our 20 guests. I know that when they complete the outdoor facility that this venue will become even better than it already is! I would highly recommend working with the Glines and having a wedding at Harmony Gardens. Thanks again Aneesa and Nathan! -
