A Perfect Wedding Destination on the Coast

Celebrate your wedding weekend with The Carolina Experience in two unforgettable North Carolina destinations: coastal, historic Edenton and charming vineyard town Elkin.

Edenton, NC

Known as the “Prettiest Small Town on the Coast” and one of the “Friendliest Small Towns” in NC, Edenton offers timeless waterfront beauty and gracious Southern hospitality at our two Bed & Breakfast Inns, welcoming up to 33 guests with 16 private rooms and a delicious homemade breakfast each morning.

Elkin, NC

In the heart of downtown Elkin, our Three Trails property accommodates up to 64 guests and places your celebration steps away from the renowned wineries of the Yadkin Valley, live music, and small-town charm – creating the perfect setting for an unforgettable wedding weekend with family and friends.
