I wish I could give a better review. The house itself was absolutely stunning and beautiful, but Gerise, the owner and coordinator, was horrible. She was so incredibly rude to me and my planner! 0 customer service. My planner would reach out and provide Gerise with the information she requested, but she would email back days later asking for the information my planner already sent! She also went back on her word multiple times and was very hard to get a hold of. For example, Gerise told us we could start setting up the venue early since they only have 1 event per day, but then made it difficult to do so and acted like she was doing us a favor by not charging us $350/hour for coming early (we just wanted to take first look pictures). There were many other negative interactions with me and my planner. I was so thankful I barely had to deal with Gerise, but felt so bad for my planner, who is a literal angel, who had to put up with her the whole time.
The 173 Carlyle House was absolutely amazing! Gerise and her team were exceptional to work with — professional, organized, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire wedding. The venue itself is stunning and provided the perfect backdrop for such a beautiful celebration.
As the planner, I truly appreciated how smooth and seamless everything ran thanks to their team’s attention to detail and hospitality. We absolutely had a terrific time working together and I look forward to many more events here in the future!
Beautiful venue!
Great place. Great service good people
The 173 Carlyle House was the absolute perfect venue for our special day. We had our rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony and reception there with almost 200 guests, and their venue space and staff accommodated for us exceptionally well! My favorite thing about the Carlyle House is its flexibility and the ability to personalize decor and details for your event, as well as its reasonable and extremely affordable pricing.
Throughout the entire planning process (only 4 months), Gerise was helpful, responsive, and offered her expertise and support whenever needed. I had multiple meetings, calls, and walkthroughs to plan and finalize everything, and she was more than accommodating each time I reached out.
The house itself is classy, elegant, and charming, which is exactly what I was envisioning for our wedding. The staff and catering were wonderful and we received many compliments from our guests on their service. I hope we have another reason to use them again in the future!
We highly recommend the 173 Carlyle House for any special event!

Nice Venue!
Very nice place, pretty inside and out. The only thing is that the bathrooms smelled like an outhouse. The lady that runs it can be a little off-putting. Make sure to get your own food cater. The one they recommended is not the best. The food was very blan.
173 Carlyle house was a great venue for our wedding. They were very flexible and understanding. The day before our wedding there was an expected hurricane and they were very helpful on options and ready for a plan B. Everyone was very kind and professional. All our guest loved how stunning the venue was.
It was a great experience.
We did the wedding photography for an awesome couple. Our experience at this venue was fantastic. The diligent staff efficiently handled all necessary transitions, ensuring that the wedding day ran smoothly, rain or shine. The event was a success, and everyone had a great time. We are scheduled to return and are eagerly looking forward to it. - Reykphoto, Wedding Photography

Set up for wedding service, than reception.. A job well done.
There are not enough ways for me to praise Gerise and Carlyle House! From the moment we booked 6 months out, Gerise answered every email and phone call, guided us with food and beverage so we'd have the right mix and amount, and worked so smoothly with all our vendors. Not to mention how attentive she was to us, the bride and groom, during our reception. She anticipated every need and helped our night shine! The venue was beautiful and it was exactly the vibe we were going for. We got SO many compliments that it was the best wedding food our guests had ever had, and their favorite party ever! We're beyond pleased with Gerise and the Carlyle team - THANK YOU for all you did to help us have the best day of our lives!
I can't say enough good things about the Carlyle House! It was perfect for our 150-person May wedding. They were, without a doubt, my favorite vendor to work with. The year leading up to the wedding, Gerise answered every single email and question I had promptly. You'll find during the wedding planning process that that kind of prompt communication is incredibly rare. They're incredibly experienced, so if you have any sort of off-the-wall idea, they've done a wedding like that before and can send you a layout and ideas around that. Weddings are expensive, and while we still spent more than we hoped originally, it's so great they don't try to price gouge you. Day of, we were treated very luxuriously, there were plates made up for the groom and I from the buffet line and cocktail hour by their staff, and our families felt well taken care of as well. We were able to be pretty minimal on the decor, too, as the venue is so beautiful, and there are beautiful photo opportunities everywhere. A lot of chairs and linens are included which will also save you money. The weather was touch and go day of our wedding, and apparently they kept moving the ceremony back and forth outdoors to indoors back to outdoors unbeknownst to me as the rain kept stopping and starting, which was incredibly nice of them, and we were ultimately able to get married outdoors! The paved terrace is wonderful for outdoor ceremonies since it dries quickly. They also allowed us to come a little early for photos without charge, because the rain was going to ruin our plans for photos at the park. We LOVED the fried chicken, and the shrimp and grits martini station in particular, and the charcuterie and hummus spreads were gorgeous during cocktail hour. Our bartenders followed us instructions perfectly for our signature cocktails and garnished them beautifully. If you have a party crew like we do, be sure to ask the bartenders not to allow shots--unlike a lot of other event venues, they'll allow it and it probably put a few of our guests over the edge by the end of the night! The stories were hilarious though so many thanks to the Carlyle House for helping us throw the beautiful ceremony and the raging party I dreamed of!
I worked a wedding this weekend at The 173 Carlyle House. I can't say enough good stuff about this venue. It is absolutely beautiful and works perfectly for indoor and outdoor weddings. The staff is so professional and helpful. They were so prepared and professional. It was an absolute pleasure to work with this venue and I look forward to future events with the Carlyle House.
