    My June wedding at The Gingerbread Meeting House was amazing!

    My husband and I recently got married at The Gingerbread Meeting House in June and it was an incredible experience!

    Caroline, the venue coordinator, is amazing! She helped answer any questions we had, was very understanding when I didn’t always get her the information she needed on time, and she was easy to get a hold of. The day of coordinator (I’m not sure of her name) was also absolutely wonderful. She helped to make sure the day went smoothly and was extremely professional and helpful. She even helped to watch my toddler during the ceremony and he is super picky about who he will let hold him!

    The day of my wedding was very hot and we initially planned to eat outside. After realizing how hot it was that day, my mom asked if we could move the tables back inside after the staff had already moved them outdoors. My wedding was very small, but I would’ve completely understood if the staff weren’t able to accommodate my request. I am SO thankful they agreed to move the tables back inside though! I was so incredibly grateful as I think everyone was happy we didn’t have to eat in the heat.

    I was truly blown away by how professional everyone was and just what a great job the staff did. We even were given a nice basket with some items in it for us at the end of the night! The staff also put out a box where guests could put advice slips in. I wasn’t expecting that, and I’m so glad they thought to do that!

    We are so glad we chose The Gingerbread Meeting House as the venue for our wedding. I cannot recommend them enough. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful too! Thank you so much to everyone at The Gingerbread Meeting House who had a part in giving us an amazing wedding day!

    Wedding Day 08.13.22

    The Gingerbread Meeting House made my wedding dream become a reality. The quality you get for the price is incomparable.
    The process leading up to the wedding day was stressful in general but the final meeting puts your mind completely at ease. They answer every question you could possibly have. We got everything we wanted for our wedding day (such as chairs, table linens, arbor, etc) and still had room to add more with our budget. They also give you a wedding planning binder to help keep your wedding ideas, DJ sheets, catering menu, and potential vendors together and organized.

    The day of the wedding, they brought the bridal party Chick-Fil-A and had every necessity on site.
    They sent us off with cute personalized plates (with our last name initial) and a basket of cake and left overs for our honeymoon!

    The location is beautiful and was great for my husband and I to get the BEST sunset pictures.

    They made this day a core memory for my husband and I! 10/10 would recommend :)

    Excellent service and staff! Couldn't ask for nicer people

    The staff is excellent and very prompt in responding to any questions. I have no doubt they are the reason our wedding day went smoothly with no problems!

    Absolutely fantastic!!

    Easiest and most stress free wedding planning/ rehearsal/ wedding day I could have ever asked for. Everything was so incredibly easy and the staff basically handled everything for me and even got us set up for our honeymoon. It was such a blessing that we found this venue and these people!

    Thank you so much, Kristen, we are so thankful that we were able to be a part of your special day! :)

    Beautiful venue, great staff, and have everything you need!

    The Gingerbread Meeting House is an amazing venue and we can't recommend it enough! Caroline was incredible to work with. Throughout the entire process, she was very responsive, gave great suggestions, and was flexible with any changes we made. I was very overwhelmed at the thought of planning my wedding but Caroline made the process so easy. TGMH offers so much - catering, DJ, centerpieces, & other décor which is great for those who want a beautiful wedding but may be on a budget.

    We were so impressed by the entire staff who were all friendly and helpful. We were able to customize our own menu and had a lot of comments from our guests who thought the food was delicious.

    There is so much I can say about this venue and it's all positive. Highly recommend!

    The Gingerbread Meeting House's reply:

    Thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your special day! It was such a pleasure to work with both of you :)

    Wedding Venue of My Dreams

    This was the first location we went to go see. The price is perfect. They take care of a lot of items which makes planning so much easier. Caroline was easy to work with. Ginger's restaurant food was amazing. And our coordinator of the day, Andrea was a pleasure! Had everything down and made me feel so calm and taken care of. Would recommend to everyone!

    Marvelous experience

    Ginger and her staff were excellent, from working with us in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and keeping up with regulations and safety to helping us day-of with shuffling from an outdoor site to an indoor due to inclement weather. She also sends out every bride a binder with information, trusted vendors, to-do lists, and generalized information that made the entire planning process much less stressful.
    I cannot recommend The Gingerbread Meeting House enough!

    Fall wedding

    My husband and I got married here Oct 1st. We had 6 months to plan and decided on The Gingerbread Meeting House as our venue when they advertised, your bring the rings we do everything else. They offer a binder full of ideas and everything you would need. Two weeks prior to the date we met and planned everything!!
    Simple, Easy, and stress-free. The setup and decor was so beautiful. From the wedding planner, to the director to every staff member, super friendly, helpful and full of life. Helping ease the stress on our actual wedding day! We loved getting married here and are forever thankful for this sweet little gem hidden in Shelby. Thank you Ginger for all your help, your calming attitude and overall support throughout the process.

    Awesome Venue and Staff

    I was fortunate to officiate my good friends wedding March 21st , and I highly recommend this venue, especially if you desire an intimate gathering in a quiet and peaceful location. Andrea and her team are exceptional and diligent. If you live in Charlotte this 1 hour commute is worth it. The facility allows for great configuration to accommodate you guest and needs.

    A awesome venue!

    I highly recommend The Gingerbread Meeting House. They take the worries away when it comes to wedding planning! At first I was scared to death when I was looking at venues because a lot of them you had to do everything yourself from decorating to picking multiple vendors. When I found The Gingerbread Meeting House, a prayer was answered. Ginger, Caroline, and Alexis are wonderful to work with. If you are looking for a one stop venue this is it!!

    The Gingerbread Meeting House's reply:

    Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your special day! We loved getting to work with you both! :)

    The Gingerbread Meeting House is your go to venue if you want a worry-free wedding

    Ginger and her staff were great! I probably drove her crazy with all of my questions but she promptly answered and there was thorough communication throughout my full planning process. They accommodated our last minute changes, helped ease our concerns from a few miscommunications, and made our vision of a beautiful wedding come to life. I would highly recommend The Gingerbread Meeting House! The planning binder was helpful, day of coordinator was great, aesthetics of the venue were gorgeous, and we loved having the all inclusive feels saving us the hassle of purchasing decorations, finding a dj, baker, caterer, etc.

    Wedding on 10/31/2020

    Ginger and Angela were AMAZING! They were very responsive with messages and super understanding in these times of COVID. We actually had to reschedule from the original date of 09/12/2020 and it was very short notice due to unfortunate circumstances. They never once got aggravated and was there for us every step of the way! I highly recommend this venue! Food was amazing and the cake was beautiful and delicious.

    The best!!

    There are not enough words to describe how amazing Ginger and her staff were for us. The whole planning process was amazing and smooth. Ginger answered all my questions, took my very vague ideas and made them amazing. Alexis, our coordinator, was literally the best!! She kept me calm, the show running smoothly and made sure it was the best night. The rest of the staff was awesome from the bartenders to the clean up staff they were efficient and fast without making a huge fuss. I will forever be grateful to the entire staff for making my rainy day wedding the best one imaginable. Thank you guys so much!!
