  Dream come true

  I meant to write a review before the wedding but forgot, I would have given 5 stars then and now, I wish I could give 100 stars! The first visit to the flyway my fiancé and I looked at each other and both said “we don’t even have to look anywhere else”. I wanted my fairytale wedding I always dreamed about, something timeless, vintage, charming, like stepping into an actual dream. Well guess what! I had the wedding of my dreams all thanks to the wonderful owners of the flyway and their family. The venue is beautiful: the most beautiful carriage house with authentic and original character - brick walls, beautiful blue doors, and so much history!; then you look to your left and you are stunned by the currituck sound, the most beautiful sunset over the water and the most special calming atmosphere; keep turning that way and you see beautiful trees and greenery everywhere - it’s something out of a fairytale! Ok so the venue is just the start, then the owners Michelle and her husband - I don’t know where to start; they are the kindest and most selfless people. She is so down to earth, with a beautiful heart, from the first visit I knew she truly cares about every single couple she meets. I felt like family by the end of my wedding weekend. Just coming into the property and seeing a beautiful lane with trees arching over it gives you the chills - then to find out that they plant a tree in memory for every couple that gets married there! (warms your heart). Michelle went above and beyond to accommodate me the whole weekend, answering any question I had that weekend plus the two years we were engaged! (I booked this 2 years ago about a month after we got engaged). I could probably write a novel about how happy we are to have been blessed with such great people and the most perfect venue. The bridal suite is perfect; the carriage house upstairs has every single thing you need for decor - my arbor, rustic side tables, cocktail lounge, sweetheart table, signs, lights, baskets, crates - all there for my use (I could keep going!). Michelle and her family are the definition of customer service and selflessness! It is a privilege to be able to say I am a flyway bride. The number one thing I heard from everyone this past weekend was how amazing the venue was, my guests could not get over the views. If you’re reading this review and deciding on whether to go visit, stop trying to decide and just go, promise you will feel as special as we do!

  Gorgeous venue!

  I absolutely fell in love with this venue when visiting and it turned out to be the most perfect place for my wedding! There are SO many beautiful picturesque locations on the property! The water, barn, and greenery were breathtaking. Michelle was a breeze to work with! She was super friendly and patiently/ thoroughly answered my millions of questions. They have a ton of decor etc that we were able to use. Michelle gave me lots of advice and suggestions throughout the planning process. They even held fun dance classes leading up to our big day. Her and her husband were even more helpful the day of the wedding! You can tell they truly care about ensuring our wedding was a success. Highly recommend the Flyway Lodge!

  Best venue ever!

  I cannot say enough about Michelle and the Flyway Lodge! Without her, we would not have had the perfect wedding. Our journey with her started about two years ago when we looked at the venue and knew that this was the place we were supposed to get married. We had our engagement pictures here, our first wedding here in October (super small thanks to COVID), and our final wedding (with a larger group of people) in April. Michelle's flexibility and how much she truly cares about her brides and grooms is beyond amazing. I truly believe that we will be out there again soon taking more pictures because the property is beautiful and one of my favorite places now. Her son took fantastic care of our fur baby during the reception and when we wanted to take pictures in the barn, she made it happen. There are so many more things that she has done for us I am sure, as my mom and her were a great tag team! If you are looking for an outdoor, rustic, with amazing views and backgrounds, this is the place-Michelle will take great care of you!!!

  Beautiful Venue

  Flyway Lodge was the perfect place for our outdoor wedding! The owners were so easy going and great to work with the entire time. They have tables, chairs, and a crew to do setup which was fantastic! The lodge itself has a wonderful rustic charm that I just can't get over, it was the perfect place for a wedding reception! We also got married right on the water which was awesome and made for some phenomenal photos!

  Beautiful location

  Flyway is gorgeous and Michelle is so nice. We must’ve gone to the lodge a dozen times to plan, and she was always available to help and answer our questions. We absolutely loved this venue.

  BEWARE!!! Unprofessional and Unresponsive

  My husband and I were thrilled when we found this venue. We thought it was the perfect place to have our families come together and celebrate. Unfortunately, we were SO wrong. Michelle’s lack of prompt communication and inability to follow through caused us to have to move our wedding ONE WEEK before our wedding date. She delayed the ABC license paperwork so long that it was impossible to get a license—even if I had driven six hours round trip to Raleigh myself. When we brought up the issue and let her know that we were going to have to relocate the wedding to Virginia we NEVER HEARD FROM HER AGAIN. She kept our deposit and did not even show up in court. We won a judgment for the deposit and she still refuses to respond or to pay.
