Walnut Hill is a dream wedding venue, with an amazing owner. Amanda (owner) was so easy to work with. We were the first couple to book with her and you would have never guessed. She was organized, thoughtful, informational, and so kind. She was more than just the owner of the venue for us, she really gave great ideas for our wedding too. My husband and I saw walnut hill transform from the foundation/construction site to the wonderful venue it is today. I couldn’t have wished for a better place to get married.

We are getting married on 9/26/2020 at Walnut Hill. Although our wedding is still 6 months away, we can already tell how beautiful our day will be thanks to this wonderful team. Amanda the owner is accommodating, easygoing and really cares about her couples. There have been a couple instances when I wanted to go check out the venue unexpectedly with my parents while they were in town last minute, and without a doubt Amanda invited us with open arms. The open vendor policy also attracted us to Walnut Hill. We were really able to make this wedding our own and not feel like we were forced to pick from a handful of vendors. This venue has multiple ceremony cites, so you are not limited to where on the property you get married. The classic white barn adds an elegant touch to the property. The bridal suite and groom suite are large with a lot of open light, too. I could go on about this venue but we can't wait for our day and I encourage all brides to book this venue or at least check it out... Read more.

Walnut Hill was the perfect place for our wedding ! The best part about this location is the size (openness ) and the option to use the plantation house . There are several beautiful locations to choose from to get married , ATLEAST 3 locations outside , as well as a beautiful pavilion if you want an inside ceremony . Walnut hill is a naturally beautiful location including a big pond with a fountain and alot of landscape that was captured in our wedding photos beautifully ! Not only is this venue a beautiful place to get married , but, in my opinion it is also very fairly priced. Amanda the owner is extremely helpful, kind, and punctual. She helped us achieve the wedding of our dreams . Any bride will love getting married at the beautiful Walnut Hill !

Walnut Hill is the perfect wedding venue! There are so many different options for your big day and you can't go wrong! Walking on the property is like finding your own oasis in Raleigh. It is so beautiful and unlike any other venue we have found in the area. Amanda and her team go above and beyond for all their couples. You can really tell how much they love each and every person that gets married there and will do anything to make your dreams come true!

We loved the venue and the staff! Our day couldn’t have been any more perfect! I would recommend this venue for either an outdoor or an indoor ceremony!

Walnut Hill is truly a perfect wedding venue. Between the spacious and beautiful house to get ready in, to the multiple gorgeous ceremony locations, to the perfect reception barn...it was exactly what we were looking for! There was off and on rain on our wedding day and we didn't stress one bit because of all the options on this property. There is a covered ceremony patio, a wrap around covered front porch, and a covered patio for cocktail hour. On top of all that, we got married during the Covid craziness and Walnut Hill was so wonderful to work with. They were understanding and helped us with the rescheduling and trying to figure out how we could still have the best experience possible. We have and will continue to recommend this venue!

BEST.HIDDEN.SECRET. From the second we met Amanda, we fell in love with her family & Walnut Hill. We had a list of venues to visit and Walnut Hill was the first one - we booked our date on the spot (it's that good!). The grounds are stunning and have so many areas for your guests to mingle (adios being stuck at the same table all night) - we had guests gathering in the grass half round by the lake, around the fire pit for a smores bar, and around the barn under their pretty lights. Amanda is a dream to work with - good vibes all the way! Her & her family were more than accommodating with our questions and requests - her dad even drove us to their yurts (which you can rent for the night before!) for our engagement photos. Seriously, we couldn't be happier with our decision - jump on this venue before it's HUGE.

Amanda was amazing to work with. We had some issues the day before that were out of everyone's control and Amanda was amazingly flexible and helped us out! The Venue is GORGEOUS and our pictures turned out amazing because of it. They really made our wedding day amazing and we cannot thank them enough! Highly recommend to anyone looking to get married in the triangle area!

Walnut Hill is a spectacular venue! Great views with each of its on-site locations. For me, some of the wedding planning stress was alleviated because of how beautiful this venue is. Since most of our guests were from other states and countries, this venue is a great representation of the beauty of North Carolina. The varied backgrounds made for stunning photos, as someone who loves pictures, I am beyond pleased with how they turned out! Access to the farmhouse made getting ready on-site stress-free! My bridal party was able to start the day with an on-site yoga session, and begin into hair and makeup, and the access to the kitchen allowed ease for food and drinks! The groom and his men throughly enjoyed getting ready in their own quarters, air conditioned, with access to the kitchen as well. The Barn Pavilion was perfect spot for dinner and a night of dancing. We ended up having almost 150 guests show up, and there was plenty of room for everyone to comfortably eat and then ... Read moredance the night away. The porch, courtyard, and gazebo on the lake were great locations for guests to catch some air and enjoy the calm while the Barn kept the high energy dance party- perfect location for all types of guests! Amanda is a true delight to work with! She is responsive, has a responsible team, and her knowledge with event planning along with Walnut Hill’s layout was so helpful with setting up our wedding. Choosing Walnut Hill for our special day was the best choice, we are so pleased with the cherished memories.

I couldn’t have asked for a better venue. The people there only want you to be happy and have the best day of your life. The fact that you have the whole house to get ready in is one of the best features. We never felt crammed, plenty of space for the bridal parties to get ready and spend the day. And the grounds?? STUNNING. The reception building? So spacious. We got everything we ever wanted at Walnut Hill.

I cannot speak highly enough about Walnut Hill, Amanda, and Jacqueline. To be honest, the beauty of the property speaks for itself and I was fortunate enough to secure the venue for my entire wedding weekend, which provided an awesome environment for me to socialize with not only my family, but also my bridesmaids. The venue has a spacious bridal suite, suitable for both hair and makeup as well as a groom's suite situated far enough away from the bridal suite that there was no fear of run-ins. I initially planned to host my wedding outside, but due to a chance of rain, we moved everything inside and it could not have been more beautiful. Amanda and Jacqueline made sure that all of my guests were comfortable and even provided a golf cart shuttle to transport guests from the parking lot to the venue, which was nice for our older guests. Throughout the reception, both of these ladies paid special attention to the bridal party as well as our guests and were so kind. If you want to get marr...

I had my wedding in April 2019, and Walnut Hill was the perfect wedding spot. The location is gorgeous, and they have a large farm house that is perfect for prepping in. There were no mosquitos, and the temperature was perfect on our special day. They had an awesome sound system for our DJ, and a large projector. Amanda, Tom, and Lisa (the owners of the location) were super accommodating and responsive to all of our questions. The location is also perfect because it is a) historic, b) in a quiet farm area, c) only a 15 minute drive from Raleigh, and d) across the street from a farm with a few adorable oreo cows (although both properties are so huge that you will probably need to cross the street to be able to glimpse the cows). Overall, my friends and family were really impressed with the whole wedding. I think it was definitely the right choice and will be very memorable to them. The price is a steal too. My one recommendation for anyone planning their wedding is to stay at the... Read more farmhouse the night before, and rent the farmhouse for one or two additional nights. It's an incredible location. I really wish I had spent more time there!

Our son's wedding at Walnut Hill in April was the first to use the new barn wedding venue. We cannot say enough positive things about our experience, and our dealings with Amanda, Tom and Lisa Williamson, the owners of WH. They helped steer us to great wedding planners, a rehearsal dinner site, etc. Because the weather cooperated, we were able to have the ceremony outside in front of the main house in front of the beautiful centuries' old oak tree. The wedding experience comes with a night for the wedding party in the two sections of the main house. There are separate bride and groom quarters, conveniently set up for getting ready for the wedding and taking photographs. The kitchen is fully equipped with plates, glasses, and kitchenware. The house is beautifully decorated, rebuilt on the site of the original 1775 farmhouse. It is surrounded by farms, "Oreo Cows" and "Jerusalem donkeys" across the street in a rural setting that is technically in Raleigh, but really a half hour east of t... Read morehe town. The "barn" was built this past year as a wedding venue, and has electronics, screens set up at one end, a kitchen, and 200 ft. of opened wall that looks out towards a pond, gazebo, two foot bridges, and woods in the background; the wall can be closed in case of inclement weather. There is also a second story at one end of the barn with a balcony. The interior of the barn is absolutely stunning with gorgeous chandeliers and strings of lights suspended from the ceiling rafters. Every detail is exquisite and in keeping with the elegant barn style country setting. The Williamson's go out of their way to make everything work smoothly. They recently invested a lot in plantings, sidewalks, an outside patio with a brick fireplace, parking lot, and a golf cart to ferry non-ambulatory guests from house to barn (less than 100 yards). This is a venue that the bride and groom, family, and guests will long remember.

We had our wedding at Walnut Hill mid-November 2019. It was absolutely beautiful! Amanda was flexible with us as we waited out the weather to decide if we wanted to have our ceremony indoors or outdoors. We ended up deciding to do outdoors by the pond, and it was absolutely beautiful! Having the fire on outside all day helped keep our guests warm. Walnut Hill is a beautiful venue that I would highly recommend! It was the perfect space for our day, and I’m so glad we stumbled upon this new venue during our wedding planning!
