The Whole House Experience

Your Private Estate for the Weekend

Imagine waking up on your wedding day surrounded only by the people who matter most. Walking downstairs in your robe. Breakfast with your parents. The house is yours.

When you have the whole White Doe Inn, something magical happens. You can walk around in your pajamas. Leave your door unlocked. Kids running between rooms. Late-night conversations in the parlor. It’s not a venue rental—it’s your family’s estate for the weekend.

With over 25 years of wedding experience, we’ve learned that the most meaningful celebrations happen when couples feel completely at home. Our Victorian inn on Roanoke Island becomes your private sanctuary, where every moment—from the welcome dinner to the morning-after brunch—belongs entirely to you and your closest circle.

Escape Together

Elopements & Vow Renewals

Sometimes the most meaningful ceremonies are the most intimate. For couples who want to focus on what truly matters—each other—our elopement and vow renewal packages offer the perfect escape. Just the two of you, or with up to four of your closest people, in a setting designed for connection, not performance.

The Wedding Retreat

VIP Lodging for Your Inner Circle

Getting married at a larger venue nearby? Your sister deserves better than a hotel room down the highway. Your parents deserve a sanctuary.

While 200 guests converge on the ceremony venue, your inner circle is here—sequestered in a Victorian sanctuary, unhurried, pampered, stress-free. The White Doe Inn becomes home base for your wedding party, family, or VIP guests throughout your wedding weekend.

We’re proud to partner with some of the Outer Banks’ finest wedding venues: 108 Budleigh, Festival Park, Vista Creek, Westside Inn, Aquarium on Roanoke Island, Pirate’s Cove, and Jennette’s Pier.

Give your inner circle the experience they deserve.

An Officiant Who Knows Your Story

Personalized Ceremony Services

Your ceremony should feel like you—not a script. Our non-denominational officiant works with you to create a service that reflects your relationship, your values, and your vision.

Write your own vows or let us guide you. Include Unity Candle, Sand, Wine, or Rose ceremonies. Invite family and friends to share readings. Make it spiritual, make it simple, make it yours.

Ceremonies can be held in our gardens, at the Manteo Waterfront, or on Nags Head beach.
