I’ve had the pleasure of DJing multiple weddings at Chandelier Event Venue, and every time I’m reminded why it’s such a standout space and team.

From the moment you arrive, you can tell the venue is run with intention and professionalism. The staff is welcoming, organized, and genuinely kind, which makes a huge difference for vendors and, most importantly, for the couple. Communication is clear, timelines are handled smoothly, and the day flows in a way that feels calm and thoughtful, even when the energy in the room is high.

The venue itself is beautiful, polished, and well-maintained, with an atmosphere that elevates the entire celebration. The layout also makes it easy to create a great guest experience, and the behind-the-scenes coordination helps everything feel seamless. As a DJ, that kind of partnership is everything. When the vendor team is supported and the schedule is executed well, it allows me to focus on what I do best: creating the soundtrack and keeping the crowd engaged.

I’m truly grateful for how easy and enjoyable it is to work alongside the Chandelier team. If you’re a couple looking for a venue that’s not only gorgeous but also backed by a team that cares deeply and runs events the right way, I highly recommend Chandelier Event Venue.

The food was delicious and our dance floor was busy all night. You must try their coconut shrimp!!!! Best shrimp I've ever had! Thank you chandelier for giving us the best wedding experience. Highly recommend.

I attended a friends wedding at Chandelier Event Venue and it is absolutely stunning, but the food is what really blew us away. Everything was delicious, and the collard greens were some of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly seasoned and cooked just right. You can tell a lot of care goes into the menu. On top of that, the location is super convenient. It’s so close to Raleigh and just minutes from the Raleigh-Durham Airport, which made it easy for out-of-town guests. Beautiful space, amazing food, and an ideal location — highly recommend!
Response from the owner:We appreciate this! Chef John is honored for the collards comment 😎

I had the amazing opportunity to have my wedding reception at Chandelier, and it was an wonderful experience! My husband and I live out of town, but Natasha and Jon were more than willing to work with us through virtual calls, emails and support. Natasha is super responsive via email and answered all of my questions with a smile on her face! The space itself is beautiful too and includes a lot of items that typical venues charge more for, which allowed for us to have a luxury experience within our budget. The food was also incredible! Chef Jon provided a phenomenal tasting and continuously asked for feedback to ensure that we were satisfied with the food. Our guests were raving about the food and the exceptional service they received on the wedding day! Additionally, Natasha and Jon really acted like our cheerleaders throughout the process and checked in on me and my husband throughout the day to ensure we were well fed and that all of our needs were taken care of. Working with Chandelier really made my wedding day stress-free and I feel very fortunate to have had such an amazing venue team. I highly recommend if you are looking for a reception space for any event!
Response from the owner:We are so grateful for your incredible review! You and your family were so kind and so amazing to work with. We are honored you chose the beautiful Chandelier!

Where do I even start?

As an event/wedding photographer I’ve shot at HUNDREDS of venues & I can say hands down this is one of my favorites.

The owners Chef John & Natasha were not only 100% hands on with assisting throughout the day but also went out their way to make the shots perfect. Not missing any detail & having an incredible staff on duty to assist with the play by play of the day.

Now let’s talk about the FOOD… I was outside myself taking 1 bite of the meal Chef John curated. It was not only delicious but very unique to anything I’ve had before, this man knows what he is doing in that kitchen & it’s a must to return for more 🤣 (don’t even get me started on the late night Burger & Frie bar they set up, can this be a thing at all weddings?)

All & all it was such an incredible experience working with our couple at this establishment, the grounds are kept pristine. There is so many great areas for photos & to set up the ceremony, I am dying to get back come spring to witness how gorgeous the courtyard is in full bloom. Even off season the outdoors was gorgeous. Very spacious, well organized, & they clearly care about their guests.

I highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Anddddddd…If you are in search for a photography+videography duo you are only a call away from adding the perfect media team for the perfect venue, we’d love to speak with you!

It truly means the world to us that our venue stands out among the hundreds you've seen. We pour our hearts into every detail and it's wonderful to know that our team's hands-on assistance and dedication to perfect shots made a difference for you and your clients.

And the food! We're delighted that the culinary experience, from the main meal to the late-night burger bar, left such a memorable impression. It's fantastic to hear that the grounds, photo areas, and overall organization contributed to such a positive experience.

We can't wait to welcome you back, especially to see the courtyard in full spring bloom! Thank you so much for your glowing recommendation and for choosing our venue for your work.
