Scarborough House. Private Estate Wedding Venue near Raleigh, NC.

The entire property is yours from Friday afternoon through Sunday brunch. Thirteen bedrooms across four lodging spaces, five outdoor ceremony sites, a private pool, six fire pits, the Magnolia Pavilion, and three acres of open ground. Personally hosted by Josh and Meika Darville on land that has stood since 1821.

Your Wedding. Your People. All Weekend Long.

Most wedding venues rent you a building for six hours on a Saturday. Scarborough House gives you three days. Friday rehearsal dinner on the lawn. Saturday ceremony anywhere from the magnolia tree to the brick patio to the Magnolia Pavilion. Sunday morning coffee in the historic kitchen before the world remembers your name. Your guests sleep in the same beds the bride and groom do. Nobody drives home that night.
