Post-Wedding Review
I booked the Palmer Inn for my wedding reception. I absolutely loved it. The estate is beautiful and the house was a 10/10. My husband and I stayed with some friends and we had no complaints. I’d definitely recommend the Palmer Inn to anyone looking to do a long-term stay or event. The owners are lovely to work with and the estate itself was great.
Small Vow Renewal
This venue was exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful views, lots of entertaining space, room for our closest friends and family and a gorgeous backdrop for our photos. The management was helpful and offered up amazing suggestions for food, photos and decor. We loved the interior of both homes but the main house was stunning enough to have photos taken inside too! We were pleasantly surprised by the clear views of the sound and the sweeping farm land! We only had our closest friends and family but I could see how this home could accommodate larger groups. We are planning a trip in the fall for a long weekend (Airbnb) because we enjoyed our time there so much.
Perfect venue for 11th Hour Weddings and Events!
The Palmer Inn Estate is a beautiful waterfront venue, and perfect for weddings of all sizes. The back acreage can be tented for large events and the private garden area is perfect for quaint micro weddings. Located conveniently between the Virginia State line and the North Carolina Outer Banks, it appeals to our local Tidewater couples as well as our destination groups. The estate offers 6 bedrooms in the historic Inn, and 2 bedrooms in the "honeymoon" cottage. The Inn has 2 large gathering rooms, a magazine worthy kitchen, and a dining room with charming furniture. The bedrooms are furnished and finished with stunning decor, and the remodeled bathrooms are modern. The cottage has it's own kitchen and living area, and even has a wall of mirrors and salon chairs for the bridal party to get ready. This venue is one of the top picks for 11th Hour Weddings and Events!
Perfect wedding venue near the OBX beaches
Palmer Inn Estate is an amazing place for couples to host their big day! The home and grounds are absolutely stunning! As a wedding planner, I'm very excited to see this beautiful home and spacious lawn available for weddings. It is truly first-class, and I'm excited to share this gem with couples looking for an astonishing place for their wedding. The home is like walking through an architectural magazine, perfectly designed furnishing and decor with beautiful artwork showcasing the local rural charm. Palmer Inn Estate checks all of the boxes for an impeccable wedding venue, and it's even a short drive to the beaches of the NC Outer Banks. Couples fortunate enough to find this charming place will "WOW" their guests and certainly won't be disappointed. Diane Nordstrom, Certified Wedding Planner, Nordstrom Events
