Vanessa's Bridals at Stowe Manor Belmont, NC

Vanessa chose the beautiful Stowe Manor in Belmont, NC for the location. Stowe is a 1920's southern mansion with a renaissance revival style that fit perfectly with Vanessa's antique style wedding gown. Stowe boasts 8500 square feet of heated living space with a beautiful double arm staircase so of course we took full advantage of its southern flair. It also has a wonderful grand foyer, library, parlor and dining room to host the grandest of weddings. So all of you brides out there looking for a venue with some real southern charm, Stowe Manor is just the venue for you.
