Weddings

La Grande Maison and Gardens is one of North Carolina's premiere bed and breakfasts, as well as a perfect wedding venue. The property has thirty acres of woods, gardens and open meadows. Our guests can view wildlife, a wide variety of plants and flowers that bloom most of the year.

Built in 1916, but enlarged and remodeled in 1997, La Grande Maison is spacious and luxurious, yet comfortable and cozy. Your visit can be as private or social as you prefer. Throughout the house, you will find beautiful antiques and paintings by artists from all over the world. La Grande Maison has a special focus on art from the 17th through 19th centuries.

Two large porches wrap around the house. The back porch features a view of the gardens and a large meadow with a wonderful sunset. The front porch has its own private flower gardens. It is a great place to view the sunrise

Our dining room is elegantly decorated and overlooks the kitchen. One night a week, guests can interact with a specialty chef and be involved with the night's dinner. Our guests will receive the evening's recipe and preparation techniques. Other nights, various chefs will be featured cooking gourmet meals at La Grande Maison. Diners will have two or three options of entrees each night. Our guests may be served in the dining room, on one of the porches or in the gazebo.

Guests can choose between our three beautiful suites, each decorated with interesting and varied artwork. Each is equipped with full private bathrooms, televisions, refrigerators, gas log fireplaces and Wi-Fi internet connections. On the same floor as the guest suites is a small lounge where guests can socialize with other guests and enjoy our 4 o'clock refreshments.

Downstairs, in the La Beret room, guests can enjoy a pool table, stereo and television. The room, decorated with sports photos, has a relaxed, casual feel. La Beret is beside the grotto, where guests can sit outside in the shade. Lawn games such as Bocce Ball, Badminton and Croquet are available to our guests.

Wine is served at four o'clock every day. Our guests are welcomed to come and taste the different types of wine we offer. For weddings and other special occasions, we can create custom labels for the wine and champagne bottles (please be sure to order these 3 weeks prior to arrival).

At La Grande Maison, guests can enjoy the peace and quiet that comes from the ambiance of a bed and breakfast surrounded by nature. Relaxation comes naturally here. As a courtesy to the inn and other guests, there is no smoking inside of the house or the gazebo. We gladly supply ashtrays in designated smoking areas.
