The folks at The Maxwell are so professional and great to work with, and we had the best experience at our wedding in May! Special thank you to Maddie Peeler who is an absolute gem...
! She is incredibly warm, organized, and calm, and worked so hard to make our wedding day happen without a wrinkle.
Everyone from Maddie to Nicole to Tova were all incredible. The professionalism, the experience in this industry, the helpfulness and kindness... it was truly a pleasure to work wi...
th them all to plan my wedding and we couldn't have chosen a more lovely venue! It looked beautiful for our early February wedding and the fireplace was perfect and kept us all warm and cozy! I love how they have a separate cocktail hour space and a bridal suite for getting ready and storing my belongings throughout the day! 10/10 recommend!
I truly don't think there is a perfect way to describe or to recommend this venue and their team because they are simply stellar and words cannot do them justice. From the moment ...
we arrived at our first tour of the space to the day of our wedding on 12/13/25, we were welcomed and treated with so much respect and happiness. We knew immediately that they could make our wedding dreams come true, and they certainly did because they are not simply a venue but a space that celebrates alongside you and amplifies the joy of your day even more than you can imagine. We loved every single second of our wedding, and our planner Maddie was an angel who made every decision and every deadline seem so easy. I think without her we would've been so lost in planning and details that we could not have done it. We owe such an immense amount of gratitude to the Maxwell, the entire team, and Maddie for helping us plan and execute the greatest day of our lives. 10/10 in every way. Go for a tour and you will NOT think twice.

We had our wedding at The Maxwell and it was great overall. It is one of the more expensive venues in the area. Unfortunately, due to the chance of rain, we opted to have our cerem...
ony indoors. This was hard for us to accept internally considering how much we paid. We still had a great ceremony and reception and the planning staff was very flexible leading up to our big day with our alcohol choices. The only disappointing thing during the reception was one of staff members being rude to multiple guests about them removing their shirts (during Nelly's song "Hot in Here"). Thankfully it did not ruin their overall experience at our wedding.
The Maxwell is absolutely stunning, but the people working here are even better. We had such great interactions with everyone throughout the whole process. They are so thoughtful a...
t every step of the way and made us feel so special! Even the bartenders on our wedding day were amazing! No one was waiting in long lines, and everyone loved their drinks! My mother in law even left her drink at the bar during the introductions, and the bartender walked it over to her after, so she didn't have to come back. It's really the little things that make everything feel so perfect on a hectic day!
We loved having our wedding at the Maxwell! Their team worked with my vendors to make the day run flawlessly. It truly was the best day of my life and everything went on perfectly ...
as planned.
Leading up to the wedding they were amazing with communication - even over a year out. I would email asking for inspo pics of cool things people had done with the fireplace, etc. and they were always quick to send pictures.
They were also wonderful about working with us for our bar package. They let us upgrade just the bourbon and were super flexible with us. Everyone loved the bar tenders and some friends even still refer to them by name. I asked them to have lots of signature cocktails ready to go at cocktail hour and they absolutely did!
I was thrilled with the Maxwell and hope you will be too :)
We got married at The Maxwell in October 2024 and were so happy with the outcome. The venue staff were incredibly communicative throughout the planning process and so helpful on th...
e day of. Our friends and family thought the location was beautiful and were huge fans of the bar staff. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a wedding location close to downtown Raleigh that can accommodate both ceremony and reception plus lots of parking.
My husband and I got married at the Maxwell 10/12/24 and it was amazing. We had an outdoor ceremony which was so beautiful this time of year. Their staff are super accommodating an...
d very responsive. The venue is so beautiful! We had a Indian/Western style wedding and this venue suited the event perfectly. We had a small wedding (around 55 ppl). At first, I was worried this venue was too big, but with use of their pipe and drape, it was perfect. Honestly, we probably had a smaller budget than this venue usually caters to, but we were never treated that way. They treated us like VIP the whole time. They also have so much parking right at the venue and the location is like 10 min from downtown Raleigh and about 2 min from several hotels. 10/10 LOVE the Maxwell.
The only thing I will say is that using this venue does up the cost of your wedding if you were planning on trying to DIY some things. For example, they require full service catering, a wedding planner/day of coordinator, the use of Party Reflections (a service that I didn't love having to use) for all of your linens and tableware, and a minimum for their bar package etc. Those things definitely add up, but if you are able to pay, it is honestly worth it. We recommend!
We got married at The Maxwell in May 2024 and it was an absolute dream. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew we had found the one. The Maxwell is such a modern and beautifu...
l venue. Chelsea and Maddie were so helpful during the wedding planning process. After booking with the Maxwell, you will receive complimentary tickets to their showcase events which is an amazing opportunity to see the venue decorated and meet vendors during the planning process. The Maxwell and the team at the Maxwell were 10/10!
If you want the wedding of your dreams and the staff to meet those expectations, get married at the Maxwell. The venue is gorgeous and is extremely customizable to fit everyone’s t...
aste. Beyond the venue itself, the staff who work there are the absolute best. We worked very closely with Maddie and she has become our all time favorite. She was extremely responsive, flexible and by the end of the night was more so one of our guests than a staffer. We can’t thank her enough for how much she truly cared about us as clients on our wedding night. You can tell her and her team treat this as more than a job. The Maxwell is clean, efficient and a perfect all-in-one venue. Even our plan C ceremony spot would've been a perfect plan A. And they recently made even more wonderufl upgrades, including adding an indoor couch and seating area and unbrellas on the patio. We can’t recommend the venue and the staff enough, we just wish we could do it all again!
Working with The Maxwell was the best experience during our wedding planning process! From the first venue tour we knew it was the perfect place for our celebration. Everyone on th...
e staff is attentive, genuinely nice, and makes you feel welcome. Many of our guests that interacted with the staff commented on how nice and helpful everyone was. Every time we attended a showcase before our wedding, they warmly greeted us and asked how the planning process was going. Then once we got closer to the big day, Maddie was so responsive to any questions we had, and she helped us finalize details so that we had confidence that everything was in order. The venue itself is gorgeous – the photos online don’t do it justice! There are so many spaces for all our guests to enjoy dancing, lounging, or taking in some air on the patio/lawn. The Maxwell’s space provided us with the flexibility to add in so many design elements to achieve the look and feel we wanted for our wedding. If you are in the process of deciding on a venue for your wedding/event, you will not be disappointed with The Maxwell. They were the best decision we made!
The Maxwell is the absolute best wedding venue! My husband and I looked at quite a few wedding venues before choosing The Maxwell. We loved the venue from the moment we saw it and ...
couldn’t be more happy with our choice. We loved how the venue had everything we needed in one area. It has the perfect outdoor setting, a great room for cocktail hour, and the best reception room. The women who work at The Maxwell were also why we chose this venue. They are amazing and were always available to answer any questions! We wish we would relive our wedding day there every weekend!
If you’re looking for the perfect wedding venue, look no further! Not only does The Maxwell have the perfect space, they also have the best staff! From the moment we toured, we fel...
t like we were part of The Maxwell family.
Regarding the physical space- it was perfect for what we were looking for! We wanted an indoor ceremony, indoor/outdoor cocktail hour in a different location from the ceremony and then an indoor reception and The Maxwell provided just that. The space itself is modern, simple, and elegant and leaves so much room to customize to make it your own.
As for the staff, our whole goal for hiring vendors was to hire the “A” team. We wanted vendors that once we hired, we knew they would be top-tier and The Maxwell staff is the best in the business! From the enjoyable showcases where we got to have a fun date-night and envision possibilities with catering, florals, and more to just the everyday planning of our wedding, everyone was patient, efficient, and helpful. Chelsea, Tova, Maddie, and Alex all worked extremely hard to make our wedding day nothing short of perfect.
We opted for the in-house day-of/month-of coordination and were so glad that we did. We thought who better to help us with everything than someone who works there- that’s where Alex came in! She was a great leader for our day-of and helped get all of our little details organized months ahead of time.
Some other highlights include the great bar staff that made sure our 160+ guests were never waiting in line for a drink- we just don’t know how they do it!
We could go on and on about everything but in simple terms, our wedding day was perfect and it could not have been without The Maxwell!
From the moment we stepped into The Maxwell, we knew we had found the perfect venue for our special day. Nestled in the heart of Raleigh, NC, The Maxwell exudes an air of timeless ...
elegance and luxury that sets it apart from any other wedding venue in the area.
The Maxwell offers everything you could dream of for your big day and more. The on-site parking made logistics a breeze for our guests, allowing them to focus on enjoying the celebration. As soon as we entered, we were captivated by the venue's beautiful charm, seamlessly blending modern sophistication with classic regal touches.
What truly sets The Maxwell apart, however, is its exceptional team. Led by the incredible Maddie, their venue manager, she and Angela, their talented operations and bar manager, ensured every member of the staff went above and beyond to make our experience nothing short of perfection. Maddie's attention to detail and personalized service made us feel like royalty every step of the way, while Angela's expertise in crafting signature drinks, including an unforgettable espresso martini tower, added an extra touch of magic to our celebration.
But what truly touched our hearts was the genuine love and care that the staff at The Maxwell have for their couples. From the moment we booked our date to the last dance of the evening, we felt truly supported and cherished by everyone at the venue.
Our wedding day was an absolute dream come true, thanks to The Maxwell and its extraordinary team. If you're looking for a luxury wedding venue that will exceed your every expectation and leave you with memories to last a lifetime, look no further than The Maxwell.
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for making our day absolutely perfect.
The Maxwell is such a beautiful venue! We hosted our pre-wedding event there, and the team helped us execute such an incredible evening! There was not a single moment where we felt...
worried or concerned with how their services were going, thanks to their wonderful team! We had an absolute blast kicking off our pre-wedding event at The Maxwell, and we couldn't have imagined a better way to celebrate.
Some points below that we felt were worth pointing out:
- The guests were very impressed by the bar services and how kind the bartenders were!
- The venue is so beautiful that we didn't require much decor.
We and the guests had so much fun partying it up at The Maxwell before the wedding the next day. The venue and your staff were such a large part of our overall wedding experience, they did a great job helping us bring our vision to life from start to finish and made the night beyond perfect for us!
We loved our wedding day at the Maxwell. The Maxwell was very easy to work with. We had our ceremony on the lawn and the reception indoors.
Everyone at The Maxwell has been such a joy to work with over the past year. From Maddie, to Rachel, to Tova on our wedding day, everyone has been so quick to answer our many quest...
ions and do so in such a friendly manner.
We knew even before we were engaged that we wanted to get married at The Maxwell, and we couldn’t have imagined our wedding day being anywhere else. The great room and patio are gorgeous, and the bridal suite was so lovely and comfortable to get ready in. The Maxwell truly goes above and beyond for their couples and is as accommodating as they possibly can be.
Something we’d suggest you keep in mind is that on their pricing guide sheet for wedding vendors, the average prices don’t include service charges, so you may want to double rentals and catering costs if you use their pricing handout as a guide when budgeting. Additionally, the venue has some pretty strict ABC laws, so be sure to ask all the bar package questions up front.
Overall, The Maxwell was the perfect wedding venue for us and we can’t thank everyone enough who helped to execute our wedding day!
We absolutely loved The Maxwell! Not only is this venue beautiful, the team here is so easy to work with. The forecast for our wedding day was touch and go but the team was able to...
have both our rain plan and outdoor plan ready to go (luckily we were able to have the wedding outside as planned). The bar staff provided by the venue was also amazing. One of the things I loved about the venue were the showcase events so we could meet vendors and see The Maxwell decorated. Cannot say enough good things about this venue!!
We had the most amazing wedding day and experience with The Maxwell. The employees are all so friendly and accommodating. From our initial viewing of the venue I could tell they we...
re super organized. On our wedding day there were scattered storms forecasted all day but I really wanted an outdoor ceremony. They worked with me to set up the ceremony both outdoors and indoors so that I didn’t have to make an abrupt decision early in the day regarding the rain plan. The weather ended up cooperating for the hour it needed to for us to have our ceremony outside. Dreams do come true and The Maxwell is here to see to it! Thank you to The Maxwell team you guys are amazing!!!

We had our wedding at the Maxwell with Tova as our coordinator and it was the best choice we could have made for our wedding. Everyone said that wedding planning is stressful, but ...
with Tova by our side, my partner and I enjoyed the entire planning process. Everyone we interacted with on the day of our wedding was absolutely lovely and so fun and made our day even more special. In addition to the wonderful team at the Maxwell, the venue is absolutely beautiful (the pictures speak for themselves!). The Maxwell is truly a canvas you can make your own and we were so impressed with its ability to transform into the vision we wanted (we were even able to have our dog included in the ceremony, which meant the world to us!). Everything about the day and the planning process was perfect and would highly recommend having your special day here and highly recommend Tova as your coordinator! Truly one of the best experiences my partner and I had and it was all thanks to Tova, the lovely Maxwell Team, and the beautiful venue!
We got married at The Maxwell last week and we could not recommend the venue more! From the beginning, the staff was wonderful to work with. I had multiple questions throughout the...
process and they always worked with us for a solution. Sometimes you fear always hearing "no" to ideas but that was not the case. The venue itself is beautiful and we were able to make it our own. We got so many compliments on the space and were glad to be able to do everything (ceremony + reception) in one spot. Overall, I highly recommend checking out the maxwell!
Choosing the Maxwell as a wedding venue is a no-brainer! I hosted my April Fools Day wedding at this venue and we are still getting compliments to this day. The staff are very frie...
ndly and helpful leading up to the big day. It is conveniently located near downtown Raleigh without feeling like you are in the hustle and bustle of downtown. They host plenty of events to show you what the venue looks like when it comes to life with discounted tickets for their couples. It is a blank canvas for you to decorate any way you see fit. And the landscape/architecture is absolutely gorgeous to capture in any season. We LOVED hosting our wedding here and cannot recommend it enough!

l to work with, they made the day run smoothly and there were no issues throughout the day that I needed to be made aware of. We are so so pleased that we decided to book The Maxwell. Many of our guests commented about how lovely and clean the venue is and I love the modern aesthetic. Also, the outside green space and white brick make for gorgeous photo backdrops! We can’t wait to get our pictures back and I will share some here when we do!

The Maxwell was absolutely perfect for our of 75. It is a beautifully simple, yet very sophisticated space that allows you to create any vision of a fairytale. Our guests were all ...
from out of state and we needed a venue with easy access to downtown Raleigh. Our guests were very appreciative of the short shuttle ride and the fact that the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all took place at the same location.
The staff at the Maxwell were top notch. Not only was everyone so helpful, they were accommodating and flexible to ensure our vision came to life. We did a few “out of the norm” things, and they were more than willing to
make all our wishes come true.
Wow! My husband and I had our wedding at the Maxwell during Veteran's Day weekend 2022 and all of our guests LOVED it! We chose this venue for several reasons 1) We had a ton of ou...
t of town guests flying in to Raleigh Airport 2) It is close to downtown, with all of downtown's accessibility/night life, BUT far enough away to have ample parking for guests and privacy from the hustle and bustle of the city 3) IT'S STUNNING and offers a blank slate for decorations/personal touches and lastly, 4) ALL of our other vendors were super excited that we were having our wedding at the Maxwell because it has everything they needed to do their job. We were so blessed to have the Maxwell's team working with us every step of the way to curate our special day with our wedding planner, and if given the option again, would still choose The Maxwell! Thank you all!

Everyone raved that it was so beautiful and one of the best weddings they had ever attended.

well (after visiting several other venues in the area), we knew it was the one. The beautiful fireplace, beautiful herringbone wall, chandeliers...the details in this space are so beautiful! And to add to an already amazing space, the staff is extremely organized, helpful, and friendly! They had so many recommendations for vendors, as well as options to really customize our day to make it feel unique to us. We had the absolute best day and The Maxwell, and the team that works there, played such a huge role in making that happen for us!

Everyone was so helpful during the entire planning process and made sure we were always taken care off. Their vendor list is great and we got so many compliments on every aspect of our wedding due to the thoughtful planning and organization that the staff had put together. Our vision and reception came together perfectly and from the time the bridesmaids got there to get ready in the morning, we were taken care of! Thanks to The Maxwell for making our wedding the perfect and best day!

thought out to make our day amazing! The space was perfect for our 150 person wedding. We had cocktail hour outside & inside and our dinner in the main room. It was great that we didnt have to worry about the rain - as our group could fit inside! Also - there is plenty of on site parking and bathrooms - all the while being a short drive from downtown.

Totally amazing venue; professional and knowledgeable staff, and super modern/current vibe!
From start to finish, our experience with The Maxwell was amazing! From kind staff who answered all of our questions and concerns to the way everything flowed so smoothly. The venu...
e is stunning and really gave an open canvas to create our own vision. We are very family oriented so it was nice to be near the city but in our own area to create that intimacy. The list of vendors helped narrow down our choices which was helpful. We even had compliments from the guests on how amazing the place was. We appreciated everything The Maxwell (Chelsea and team) did for us! It was the most amazing day!
From start to finish, working with The Maxwell was an absolute dream. We booked our wedding when the venue was still under construction and each time we toured the space as everyth...
ing came together, Chelsea's thoughtfulness and clear attention to detail in the design gave us confidence that she would bring the same energy to our wedding day. Sure enough, Chelsea and Victoria went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we desired, regularly checking in with us throughout planning and being incredibly responsive to allll my questions. We even had to reschedule 48 hours before our original date (thanks, COVID) and within a few hours of finding out, they turned around a rebooking for a new date. And that's on top of the GORGEOUSNESS that is The Maxwell - we were sold by the fireplace and the warmth of their lighting combined with the stone and white walls just cannot be beat. Our classic, romantic vision was perfectly executed in this space and the bridal suite made me feel like an actual princess - it also provided a perfect hangout space for us and our families before the ceremony started, which led to some of my favorite photos of the day. We are so appreciative to Chelsea, Victoria, and the whole team and cannot say enough positive things about holding our wedding at The Maxwell!
I absolutely love The Maxwell: the venue itself and their whole team. The venue is stunning; light, bright, and room to make it your own! I also love all of the details; the wooden...
accent on the lounge wall, the fireplace, the unique chandeliers, the string lights outside. The venue is so beautiful and I couldn’t have imagined my wedding at a different place. The Maxwell team was SO incredible with communication. They were quick to answer any and every question I had along the way! They made me feel so comfortable going into my wedding day. I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone!

as wrapping up in February 2021 but Chelsea was able to help us visualize exactly how beautiful it would be -- and we were not disappointed! Victoria, the venue manager, was responsive, professional, and she and the entire staff helped ensure that our day (and all the coordination leading up to it) went off without a hitch. All of our friends and family raved about how beautiful it was and we could not have been happier!
We had our ceremony and wedding reception at The Maxwell on 12/31/21. The Maxwell was the perfect venue – we booked it before construction was even completed based on how confident...
we felt about Chelsea and her team. The space itself is perfect for adding modern, minimalist décor or going all out and really customizing, we loved the chandeliers, fire place, oak accent wall and the other small, thoughtful touches. The outdoor space is also fantastic for photos, outdoor cocktail hour and for guests that want to step outside.
In terms of value, we feel like we got A LOT included in the rental fee, and you can’t put a price on how awesome the team there is.
Each person that we worked with – Chelsea, Victoria, Tova and the bar staff were very kind, helpful and responsive. Day of, we felt like everything was totally covered and we didn’t have to worry about anything. We especially appreciated the time Victoria spent working with us on the perfect bar package and signature cocktails.
Overall, recommend this beautiful venue and excellent team.
The Maxwell was a dream come true. From the start of our relationship, Chelsea and her growing team were so helpful and very quick to respond to our many questions during the weddi...
ng planning process. The venue speaks for itself in it's beauty from the whitewashed brick, grand fireplace, and amazing lawn and greenery. Everything about our wedding day went perfectly and as the bride, I felt at ease and excited the entire day. I trusted the staff 100% to treat our guests with kindness and working with our amazing vendor team (that they recommended) they put on the best day possible. If I had to do it all over, I would choose them, no questions!
I was a bit worried about booking a wedding venue that was still under construction (this was in January) but i'm so glad we did. The Maxwell is an absolutely gorgeous space with p...
lenty of parking and the rare ability to take on the style of whatever the couple wants. Everything is very neutral (lots of whites and creams) which means you're able to add pops of your favorite colors in the form of florals or decor. We chose emerald green and champagne with wood accents and it looked absolutely perfect in the space. I also appreciate the well manicured outdoor space which gave us additional options for ceremony location and cocktail hour. Finally the bridal suite was perfection, offering everything we needed to get ready (along with a few helpful items that we didn't even think of!). If I had one critique I do wish the bridal suite was facing the back of the property rather than the front, unfortunately while guests were parking we had to close the beautiful window curtains so they wouldn't see us early!
Beside the property what sets the Maxwell apart is the staff. The entire team was so helpful from initial tour to the big day itself. Any questions were promptly addressed and their team worked seamlessly with our other vendors to make sure the night went off without a hitch. I'm so grateful for how professionally everything was handled to make our day perfect.
