Hello

Anna & Andrew

July 14, 2021 by Chatham Station

These two share a deep love for NC, Cary in particular, but actually met six years ago at Iowa State University. She is a Ph.D in plant genetics and he is an IT Specialist and between them is a cat – Pacifica – that they adore. Andrew proposed to Anna while on a family vacation at the Salkantay Pass en route to Machu Picchu in Peru. How is that for a WOW?!?!

The Couple

Anna and Andrew not only love this area, but, happily for us, they also fell in love with our indoor and outdoor spaces and chose to get married at Chatham Station. Naturally, we were excited to host them!

The First Look

Anna specifically loved our outdoor spots at Chatham and she shared her First Look with Andrew behind the wall of trees we have near the train tracks. It was lush and lovely. Photographers find the most wonderful spots in and around our venue to grab images, and photographer Christian Reyes was no exception working with this couple.

The Ceremony

The ceremony was out on the patio underneath a beautiful clear tent, complimented with string lights. Anna was escorted down the aisle by her father to meet Andrew. The white roses and greenery offered a lovely backdrop on Chatham’s herringbone wall. Everything from the tent and lights to the flowers and color palette was elegant and serene.

The Party

The dance floor was set up inside and the bar outside, so everyone could spread out and enjoy themselves and there was easy flow between the two through our garage/bay doors.

Anna and Andrew repurposed the background from their ceremony and had an intimate sweetheart table for their reception. Guests enjoyed watching the couple’s first dance together as husband and wife and were visible moved as each danced with their parents. The day was truly filled with palpable joy and affection for these two.

The newlyweds and Chatham Station are happy to share the vendor list with you.

Cary Spots : Locations that Work

March 10, 2021 by Chatham Station

When planning a wedding or special event, people will often ask us where they can take pictures around Chatham Station, and we love to reply “Everywhere!” We’re surrounded by an embarrassment of riches.

There are truly so many quaint backdrops around every nick and corner. From urban scenes that boast public art to understated greenspace, the Town of Cary does a nice job of providing an array of photographic options to our clients. Following are some that our guests visit and take advantage of regularly when they are celebrating with us.

Page Walker Arts & Cultural Center

Built in 1868 as a railroad hotel, the historic landmark has since served as an apartment building, boarding house, single family residence, and is now a museum owned by the Town of Cary. In addition to the majestic Second Empire style architecture, the property also boasts a lush green garden and an historic smokehouse. 

Couples appreciate the quick access to Page Walker Arts and Cultural Center, as it is located across the railroad tracks behind Chatham Station. Because it is owned by the Town of Cary, couples are free to utilize the grounds for photographs, provided there are no events being held on the property at the time. 

Downtown Cary, Streetside

There are so many other quaint (dare we say, cinematic) options available as well, such as Ashworth Village and the brick-covered streets that encompass the intersection of Chatham and Academy. Pleasant surprises spring up along downtown Cary’s streets, such as vibrant and understated murals, statues, a pole clock, and a nostalgic theatre marquis. 

The Water Fountain

Cary’s beloved Downtown Park boasts a majestic water fountain that is often lighted to match seasons. Photographers have produced striking daytime and evening shots here. 

Around the Venue

When time and weather don’t make it easy to stroll the streets of downtown Cary or the grounds of Page Walker, many clients have found amazing photo locations just outside our doors, and their photographers have created magic over the years.

We have a fenced-in patio and crisp white wall at Big Dom’s Bagels, as well as the trendy interior of Sidebar, our cocktail bar neighbors. And there are various natural areas around the building in which we’re located. 

Our team is ready to work with and guide you whether you are a wedding or event planner, recently engaged or just looking for a place for an editorial or impromptu photo shoot.


Many thanks to the photographers who captured these images:
