Fearrington Village Wedding Guide at the Fearrington House, Gardens, and Barn
A Scenic Wedding Venue in an Accessible Countryside
The Fearrington Inn House and Gardens is a wonderful wedding venue that I absolutely ADORE photographing at. One thing that makes this venue so great is that it’s so close to Durham and Chapel Hill, and yet it feels like a getaway in the countryside. Arriving at Fearrington Village gives the vibes of driving into a quaint English hamlet. Wandering by the shops, eateries, and rural scenery makes you feel like you are away from all your troubles. And as a Ralais & Chateaux property, you know that it’s the cream of the crop.

You Will Love Fearrington Wedding Ceremonies at The Tranquil Flowering Lands of Jennys Garden
When you arrive at Fearrington Village, you will probably notice how charming all the greenery is around the house. For example, pretty little flowers are thoughtfully planted all around the shops and walkways. However, what you can’t see from the road is the pretty little manicured area called Jenny’s Garden. It’s located in a pretty little nook just behind the Fearrington Inn House.
The hidden location of Jenny’s Garden makes it a perfect private spot for a wedding ceremony. Here, to the side of Jenny’s Garden, is a lawn with an arbor where larger weddings take place. Though, I think that being married near the steps of Jenny’s Garden would be absolutely lovely as well. The Garden has a pretty fountain in the middle along with many white trellised walkways. As you might imagine, it makes the most gorgeous photo location for your wedding day.

Gorgeous Fearrington Wedding Reception Areas at the Barn and Garden Terrace
When planning your wedding, Fearrington Village offers several different reception areas. For example, you could celebrate in their Garden Terrace next to the Historic Fearrington House, or in the rustic Fearrington Barn, or even at their adorable restaurant called The Belted Goat. On top of this, all of the venues feature the top notch cuisine of Relais & Chateaux is known for.
