The incredible team at The Maxwell helped us plan and execute the wedding of our dreams. We had the most amazing experience and their help and knowledge through the planning process was so supportive and made it so much easier. Their incredible abilities to truly help make our special day complete was unforgettable and did not go unnoticed. We couldn't have had the most special day without them and we cannot thank them all enough. We would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking to book them in the future. Thank you to everyone at The Maxwell for creating memorable moments that will last us a lifetime on our wedding day! -

Cassie Sent on 10/30/2024The Maxwell is extremely reliable, responsive, and high-quality.
As soon as we visited The Maxwell we knew it was the venue for us - the space is beautiful and having the ceremony + reception all in one place was just what we wanted. The venue staff were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the planning and process and on the day of. All of our friends and family had an amazing staff and (in particular) were huge fans of the bar staff. Would highly recommend. -

Lauren Sent on 06/25/2024Our Dream venue!
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 taste. 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... -

Becky Sent on 06/19/2024The Maxwell = Best Experience!
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 the 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 –... -

Jill Sent on 04/07/2024The Maxwell made our wedding PERFECT!
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 felt 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... -

Douglas-Ochoa Sent on 03/19/2024🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Unforgettable Luxury Wedding Experience at 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... -

Gina Sent on 11/04/2023The Perfect Venue!
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 best experience with the Maxwell! The space is stunning, modern, and a blank slate to make it your own. Our guests raved about how beautiful it was. Proximity to downtown Raleigh was very important to us, and this space is the perfect location. -

Nicole Sent on 05/23/202310/10 Recommend The Maxwell!
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! -

Imani Sent on 04/21/2023Don't walk, RUN to the Maxwell!
The Maxwell was a dream to work with! They host and invite their couples to so many events throughout the year, it is almost impossible not to picture your big day here. It is conveniently located in Raleigh (Close to downtown but just far enough away not to feel like you are in the hustle and bustle). It comfortably fit all of my guests (about 130 people) with plenty of room if we would have wanted more. We also loved that the space was a blank canvas so we could make it our own. The modern white brick design and patio space are gorgeous to capture, even with just an iPhone. The staff was extremely supportive/responsive leading up to... -

The Maxwell did a great job working with us to help make our wedding dream a reality. Tova was our month of coordinator and was an amazing resource for us with the final details and on the day itself. I would highly recommend the Maxwell and Tova to anyone! They’re such an incredible team and so easy to work with. The staff was amazing and so helpful! -

The Maxwell was incredible in every single way! As soon as we walked in we knew it’s where we wanted to get married.

I knew the Maxwell provided excellent service as every other vendor I hired would say oh great choice we love the Maxwell! They were so kind and prompt in communicating with us the whole way and the day of went off without a hitch. Great location, great service and great people!! Thank you Maxwell 👏🏻 -

Michaela Sent on 12/26/2022The best venue + team for our love story
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. -

We were so pleased with our experience at the Maxwell! Chelsea, Kathryn and their team are so efficient and our big day went off without a hitch. They were also very personable during the planning process and responsive to all my questions. They could not have been more accommodating with our preferences for room setup and cocktails! The space itself is also stunning and the perfect blank space to make your vision come to life. Parking is ample and bridal suite is perfect for getting ready with your girls—the Maxwell has every convenience! Everyone raved that it was so beautiful and one of the best weddings they had ever attended. -

Louise Sent on 06/09/2022Beautiful backdrop!
My husband (so fun to say now!) and I loved this place from the minute we toured! Which was a few months before it was even completely finished! I love the availability of different spaces for each part of the event. And the elegance it holds even without any setup and decor is breathtaking. Cheslea is incredible and she has put together a wonderful team to make The Maxwell what it is. -

Laura Sent on 06/05/2022Great Experience
We loved working with The Maxwell. The customer service was spectacular. They made sure we had everything we needed on our wedding day. I do advise you read the fine print and realize you must use their approved catererers, DJs, florist, and wedding planners. They recommended Diane Wolk at Bustled Events and she was wonderful. -

The Maxwell was absolutely perfect. The venue itself is beautiful. The staff is great to work with and do their very best to make your day exactly what you're looking for. The white finish is elegant. The bridal suite is perfect to get ready in. It was a seamless one stop shop. Their vendor recommendations are easy to work with and honestly made planning super easy. When I thought of my wedding day, this place exceeded my expectations far more than I could have ever imagined. -

Kristen Sent on 03/01/2022The Perfect Day
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! -

Gabriella Sent on 06/26/2021The Perfect Place to get Married
The Maxwell is truly the perfect place to get married to the love of your life. The space is gorgeous on its own but was designed in a way that you can transform it into any wedding fantasy you’ve ever had. There’s indoor and space so a ton of flexibility around how to set it all up.
Chelsea, one of the owners, and her team are unmatched! They have thought of everything and made it so easy to sit back and enjoy your wedding and guests! The venue rental includes a stocked bar and bartenders, pouring of your champagne/cider for toasts, high top/bistro tables, guest 60in rounds, 8ft tables AND the gorgeous chairs. You only have to... -

Chelsea and Victoria are amazing! They were very responsive to any questions we’ve had and kept us up to date with any wedding updates, especially during this pandemic. When I first visited the venue, it was still under construction but I knew it would be the perfect venue for us and Chelsea did well with creating the vision. I loved the outdoor and indoor space as it was the perfect layout for pictures, guest to mingle, and space for guests to be distanced when needed. The outside landscaping is so beautiful that I did not need much decor and loved how elegant the inside is.
The day of my wedding went so smoothly! I truly enjoyed The... -

Janice Sent on 05/25/2021The best team!
Chelsea and her team were awesome to work with. From the initial inquiry to the actual wedding day, they have been on top of their game, basically walking alongside me during wedding planning. They were just overall an incredible team to work with and the venue was absolutely beautiful. I love the high ceilings, white walls, and modern-looking brick on the outside! Having an outdoor option for cocktail hour was also huge especially with COVID! It allowed us to spread everything out! I would definitely recommend checking it out and meeting the team! Huge thank you to The Maxwell team for being a part of my big day! -

Angela Sent on 05/17/2021Excellent venue and staff
I can’t say enough good things about The Maxwell. We had my son’s rehearsal dinner here. The venue was gorgeous! Chelsea and Victoria were so helpful! The entire process from beginning to the night of the event was simple. The response time was wonderful also. If I had a question, I received an answer usually on the same day, often within 2 hours of emailing The Maxwell. The bar staff they hired was excellent. We had a bee theme and the specialty drink, the Bee Sting, was available with or without habanero so everyone that wanted to could enjoy it. I wouldn’t hesitate to book The Maxwell again.

Samantha Sent on 05/11/2021Seamless and wonderful
We came across The Maxwell as it was being built. We were nervous at first but after hearing from other vendors how wonderful Chelsea was, we decided to take a tour. After meeting with Chelsea and hearing her vision, we booked within 10 minutes of leaving. From the initial meeting through our wedding day, Chelsea and her team were wonderful. We were having our ceremony elsewhere and were utilizing The Maxwell for our reception. They were in contact with us and helped us every step of the way through planning - from recommending vendors to accommodating a VIP drink list for our parents. The venue itself is everything we could have imagined and more - a timeless elegance. The... -

The Maxwell Ralleigh is a gorgeous wedding venue near downtown Raleigh. I love their timeless setting combining modern elegance and classic luxury.
There are so much you can do in this beautiful space. The fireplace is a showstopper!! I am beyond excited to see what couples will create to make their wedding unique and unforgettable, and of course I cannot wait to photograph it all.
Chelsea one of the owners is very professional, kind and a pleasure to work with. Couples will have the best team to assist them in such a special time of their lives. -

Samantha Sent on 05/18/2020Perfect Wedding Venue!
This venue is the perfect wedding venue for my fiance and I, we absolutely fell in love with it from the second we saw it! The light color pallet mixed with a southern but modern vibe was so unlike any other venue we have looked at in the area. We booked it immediately!
The indoor/outdoor floor plan is the exact flow we imagine for our guests with ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all in different locations creating the perfect night and experience.
We're so excited for the day this beautiful space is complete as we know it will surpass our expectations for our dream wedding!
