A Farm Wedding & Event Venue in Zebulon, North Carolina

Your celebration deserves more than a few hours. Make a weekend of it.

Welcome to Oak Ridge Farms, a private farm wedding and event venue in Zebulon, North Carolina, where open countryside, thoughtfully designed spaces and genuine Southern hospitality come together to create celebrations that feel personal.

Located in the peaceful countryside of eastern North Carolina and convenient to Raleigh, Wendell, Wake Forest and surrounding communities, Oak Ridge Farms offers couples and their guests a chance to step away from the traditional event hall and celebrate somewhere with character, privacy and room to enjoy the moment.

Whether you’re planning an intimate wedding, reception, rehearsal dinner, family reunion, birthday celebration or private gathering, our farm provides a beautiful setting for bringing people together.

Weddings at Oak Ridge Farms

There is something different about getting married on a farm.

The open landscape, changing seasons and quiet countryside create a backdrop that can’t be recreated inside a traditional ballroom. At Oak Ridge Farms, your wedding becomes part of the property rather than simply an event held in a building.

Our venue is designed for weddings of up to 100 guests, making it especially suited for couples who want a more intimate celebration surrounded by the people who matter most.

Couples can create a wedding weekend that moves naturally from rehearsal and setup to the ceremony, reception and a relaxed morning after — without feeling like everything has to be packed into a few short hours.

A modern outdoor patio area with a small pond, surrounding plants, a small triangular house with large windows, and an open pavilion with a ceiling fan, set amidst a wooded area.

Our signature wedding experience gives couples access to the property from Friday at 3:00 PM through Sunday at 12:00 PM.

Friday gives you time to arrive, settle in, your planner and vendors to decorate and rehearse without the pressure of doing everything on your wedding morning.

Saturday is yours to celebrate.

And Sunday morning offers time to wake up, enjoy the farm and wrap up the weekend before saying goodbye.

It’s your wedding. You should have time to actually enjoy it.

The Pavilion

A modern house and an open pavilion with metal roofs in a landscaped outdoor space surrounded by trees, with a concrete patio, small garden beds, and decorative rocks.

At the heart of the venue is our open-air pavilion, offering a covered gathering space while maintaining a connection to the surrounding farm.

The pavilion can transition throughout your event — from cocktails and conversation to dinner, dancing and an evening celebration under the Carolina sky.

The Clubhouse

Our Clubhouse provides another comfortable and flexible space for your wedding weekend.

It can serve as a gathering area for half of the wedding party to get ready and cocktail space or simply somewhere for your closest friends and family to spend time together throughout the celebration.

Stay at the Farm

One of the things that makes an Oak Ridge Farms wedding especially unique is the opportunity to stay right here on the property.

Our Oak Ridge Farm Stay gives couples the ability to turn their wedding into a true destination-style weekend without leaving the countryside.

Instead of driving away immediately after the celebration, you can end the evening knowing home for the night is only steps away.
