The Farm on Cotton

5.0

Sanford, NC
  • Up to 125 guests
  • Limited services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $4,500

The Farm on Cotton is a rustic wedding venue located in Sanford, NC. Nestled on fourteen acres of pastoral land featuring a working apple orchard and adorable farm animals, this venue offers a rural ambiance with a touch of elegance. A short drive from Raleigh, you and your loved ones can enjoy the seclusion of this stunning location with the convenience of nearby big city amenities.

When you think of everything your wedding could be thus venue exceeds that. When we entered this venue me and my husband knew it was "the one". The space, the owner, what's included for the pricepoint....well it was everything and more. Once our wedding day came it was seamless. We had a little rain in the morning, but that staff wiped everything down and we were able to have out ceremony on the overlook. Jamie (the owner) kept us on schedule and worked behind the scenes with her staff and my vendors to make sure everything was a dream come true. I cant recommend this venue enough and I wouldn't change a thing.
