Calling all Brides and Grooms!! If you're looking for a wedding venue look no further. We booked the JH Adams Inn for our October wedding and I couldn't be more pleased with how everything turned out! Amanda and Derek were amazing and so accommodating, making sure everything was taken care of from start to finish. They put us at ease and were constantly making sure me and my now-husband had everything we needed and that everything was how we wanted it. I am a very detailed oriented, type-A person so trust me when I say they were amazing.
The in-house restaurant Christina Grey's was amazing and very accommodating to members of our wedding party that were vegan. We heard nothing but great things from our guests about how bomb the food was :)
The rooms were very clean and well taken care of. My mother-in-law rented their Elizabeth house next door and was over the moon with how clean it was and how convenient it was to the venue. We even used the bottom floor of the house for our rehearsal dinner and it was lovely!
The place is beautiful, the staff really care and do everything in their power to make your event wonderful, the rooms are great and super clean, and we cannot sing their praises enough!
Thank you again for everything,
The Bullards
Having our reception at JH Adams Inn was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! My husband and I had a Christmas wedding, so this already beautiful venue, was even more stunning with its incredible Christmas decorations. My bridesmaids and I also stayed at the Inn the night before and had the sweetest time together! The event coordinator, Julie, and her staff were INCREDIBLE. They seriously went above and beyond throughout the entire wedding planning process and during the day of! They helped everything go smoothly and worked so hard to make our wedding perfect. Also, the food was delicious! We had a carving station and it was so good! We HIGHLY recommend choosing JH Adams for your wedding!
We used the JH Adams for our room block, our wedding was at High Point Country Club. I cannot speak highly enough of their staff and what a wonderful weekend they made my wedding weekend! I have a very large family that traveled in from NY for the weekend and almost everyone stayed at the JH Adams! Bethany took the lead on our room block, and she made our wedding weekend as special as it was! We had the majority of the rooms booked, everyone was able to hang out on the back patio the night before and enjoy each other's company, the main house was used by the bridal party to get ready in and we got some of the most beautiful photos before the wedding! The service was above and beyond to make everyone's stay comfortable and enjoyable! We were hesitant at first to book our room block with them since they are a boutique hotel. We were trying to be very budget conscious as it was already a big trip for most of our guests. Their prices were very comparable to other hotels in High Point and the additional amenities and incredible service made it 100% worth having everyone stay there! Cannot recommend them highly enough, even if you aren't having your reception there!
Even being HPU move in weekend the made Our wedding day the most important event.
Hands down the entire staff went beyond all our expectations to ensure everything was perfect! Kudos to Julie and Amber for making every detail count and our wedding day the most memorable day! Highly recommend everyone had a fabulous time and several said they would be back to stay when visiting NC again!
This is the most unprofessional place I have ever experienced concerning booking a venue. First, the venue coordinater double booked our wedding suite with another couple therefore we had to push our date back by almost a month. She didn't discover this problem until 2 months after we booked the venue and could not be refunded. Then, the venue manager called the day before our tasting and said that the venue coordinater that we were working with was fired and she had never placed the order for our menu we were having at the tasting. I had given her the information and we scheduled the date all months In advance. Shortly after, I scheduled a photo shoot with my photographer and booked the honeymoon suite at the Inn as our set. I paid for my hair, nails and makeup to be done and the venue called me 2 hours before the shoot that could not be rescheduled for months (our photographer was very busy) to let me know that the a.c. was out in the room I booked and it was over 80 degrees outside. I was sweating the entire $500 shoot. A new event coordinater was hired who put us through equal amounts of stress. We went through a timeline that was completely off by over an hour on the day of our wedding thanks to their staff serving the food. The process took us 1 hour or more off schedule which we had planned with the event coordinater. Our photographer had to leave and we didn't get photos of my husband and I cutting our cake, or the garter and bouquet tosses. We had to do our exit in the middle of our reception just so our photographer could capture that before she had to leave. After the wedding the venue coordinater contacted me with a balance that she had to revise not once or twice but three times when I noticed inaccurate expenses (which by the way I had to calculate on my own because she has yet to send me a detailed account of where the over 10,000 that I paid them went to) now she is emailing me requesting this balance and has yet to respond to my emails or answer my requests. This nightmare literally will not end. I have never in my life experienced something so stressful and concerning what was supposed to be the happiest day of my life! I will never forget what I lost because of the unprofessionalism and inconsistency of this venue.
We had our rehearsal dinner in Christina Gray's Restaurant and the bridal shower at the Elizabeth House, both catered by JH Adams Inn. We also stayed in the Kinkaid Suite for two nights (the night before the wedding and the night of the wedding) and we also had multiple other guest staying at the Inn. We booked the Kinkaid Suite far in advance. The rehearsal dinner and the bridal shower were wonderful. The staff was fantastic and the food was excellent. The restaurant and the Elizabeth House are also beautiful venues. Things had been perfect up to that point. The morning of our wedding we noticed they were setting up in the lobby for another wedding. Nothing was ever mentioned to us about this. When we approached and asked the staff about this, we were told that we were only allowed to leave within a certain time frame due to the other wedding in the lobby. FYI, you can only exit the Kinkaid Suite through the lobby. We had planned our wedding a year ago and was never told that this would have been an issue. If we knew, we would have stayed somewhere else as we had a timeline given by our wedding planner for transportation that had already been arranged. As we were getting ready to leave, a woman came upstairs and as I was told, was completely rude to the mother of bride and groom, stating that we needed to leave immediately. We were rushed down the stairs as they were flipping the room for the rehearsal and the guests at the other wedding were all staring. Needless to say it was extremely awkward and I felt that it was completely unprofessional. One of the reasons we booked so many things through the JH Adams Inn is because it is beautiful and we wanted photos on the staircase. The customer service was less than average once the rehearsal dinner and bridal shower were done. I cannot imagine how the other wedding guests felt. The groom and multiple other guests (about 20 rooms) stayed at the Radisson and from the feedback I received they went above and beyond. They were super accommodating and extremely friendly. I would highly recommend the Radisson.
We recently had our wedding at this venue, it was amazing. Mena is great. She will do everything in her power to help you and improve your experience. As a bride, I changed colors and my mind numerous times but Mena was there throughout the process. The food was amazing, many guests saying it was the best they ever had at a wedding. Would definitely recommend for any couple!
I had a lot of problems with no one returning my calls or emails for weeks! The only way I could get somebody was to call the front desk several times and tell them to have the wedding coordinator check her emails. It was terrible! I decided to go to the manager of the Inn and let her know my concerns. In the end she fixed everything, followed through with the promises the other employee had made and made my wedding come together! I did have small problems like not getting drinks and the candles on the table not being lit during the rehearsal dinner but this was the wait staff's fault not the manager.
I just recently had my wedding reception there, and we also had our bridal suite and honeymoon suite there, and many guests stayed at the Inn as well. Let me just say that this by far was an AMAZING place!! They did not get sick of my OCD emails and phone calls asking questions, they were always very accomodating and really worked with me to make my day special. Every inch of the Inn was everything I could have dreamed for in a wedding. My guests could not stop talking about how gorgeous it was, how great the food was, and how wonderful the rooms were. Mena and Meghan do an amazing job as well as the rest of the staff. I was extremely impressed and have ranted and raved about this place to many of my friends that are getting married. If you are looking for an elegant venue where you get the biggest bang for your buck then the JH Adams Inn is the place to go. My wedding theme was Vintage Glam and we barely had to do anything to the Inn because it is already so stunning. We were so pleased and it was everything I could've imagined for a wedding!
The place is very pretty but has just gotten new management within the last year or so and the place is a mess! I had never been more stressed or disappointed in my life. They totally screwed up reservations & did not hold true to things they had promised us when we booked and paid BIG BUCKS. Extrememly disappointed in them & would not recommend them to my worst enemy.
We just recently had our wedding reception at the JH Adams Inn in June 2011. The venue is beautiful and the food (catered by their restaurant, Hampton's) was great. However, we were disappointed many times over during our wedding reception due to the disorganized, immature and unprofessional wedding coordinator at the Inn.
Unfortunately, the weather for our big day was showing about a 30-50% chance of rain. I had inquired earlier in the week about a rain plan and was told by the coordinator that "we would just pray that it didn't rain." That is an unacceptable response. It was further unacceptable when at the beginning of the cocktail hour a storm began moving in, and the beautifully set tables were in the path of the storm. When my sister-in-law inquired with the coordinator on the plan for moving the tables under the tent, she stated that despite the black skies, she would not move anything without the bride's permission, though she made no effort to contact me or my husband (who were enjoying time alone before the reception started). The entire bridal party (in their formal dresses) and the family frantically moved tables to underneath the tent. The storm pushed the dinner hour back about 1 hour, which wasn't a big deal, thankfully because all of my friends and wedding party were able to save the tables, chairs and beautiful flower arrangements from getting soaked.
I had given the coordinator a detailed timeline of the reception at least 1 week prior to our wedding day. However, when my husband and I went to cut our cake (as per the timeline) there were no cake cutting utensils for us to use. It had been arranged that we were to use silverware provided by the Inn. By the time the coordinator was found and she was able to find silverware for us, our "cake cutting song" was over. How embarrassing to stand there in front of our cake with tons of cameras, unable to cut anything. For the rest of the evening, even though events were clearly stated per my timeline, the coordinator never lifted a finger to arrange for the bouquet toss, garter throw, etc. My sister-in-law became the point person for the night and thankfully handled all of the details, but was unable to enjoy the wedding herself considering she took on the role of "wedding coordinator."
Also of note, there were two bars set up for the night and one was left completely unattended for hours where guests were helping themselves to beer and wine. This was problematic for two reasons, (1) leaving a bar unattended is against liquor laws and (2) the beer tab ran out much quicker than it would have had someone been staffing the bar the entire night. Wine was not served during dinner either to the tables or at the bar and the white wine was not put on ice. It wasn't until my sister-in-law checked with the bartender on the status of the bar and why it was unattended did anyone notice.
The biggest disappointment was that the coordinator never once apologized for any of the above events, but instead only gave attitude to myself, my husband and my family during the entire event. After we got back from our honeymoon, I called and wrote emails to upper management at the Inn to give them details of what happened that night. I was told that I would be compensated with a free nights' stay and dinner at Hampton's however, I NEVER received a thing.
Be prepared to deal with an incompetant coordinator if you decide to use this venue for your wedding day.
the inn was perfect and the weather took a turn for the worst but they made arragements and made sure that all my guest were taking care of ! Everyone was helpful especially Mena Parrish who directed the wedding. They made my day carefree and perfect ! i would use them over and over again and all my guest loved the Inn as well!
I was truly happy with my choice to have my wedding at the J.H. Adams Inn in High Point, NC. The venue was absolutely beautiful and perfect for pictures. Everyone was very helpful and the bridal suite was gorgeous. Loved the huge bathroom with soaking tub. Perfect to relax in the night before. The food was outstanding and I still get comments on how it was the best wedding food my guests have ever had! 5 Stars all around!
The hotel and service that The JH Adams Inn hotel provides is beyond words. The staff did an amazing job providing us with great service on our wedding day. I highly recommend it for weddings.
