    The best!!

    One of the greatest decisions was choosing to have our wedding at Separk!!!! It was the most beautiful venue. All of our guests were in total awe of the venue. The day was exactly what I dreamt of!! The staff and our coordinator Caylea made everything seamless - from the planning to the day of. I couldn’t possibly recommend Separk and Caylea more!!!

    Great experience

    We had our wedding with Separk on Oct 7th 2023. We did the all inclusive package which was great because it really helped us streamline some vendors and choices. Caylea was super helpful and responsive. So glad we had her there to help coordinate day of when everything is hectic. Highly recommend Separk and specifically the all inclusive area package!

    Best venue ever

    If you are considering getting married at Separk, just do it. The property itself is gorgeous, and the team is amazing to work with! We are so happy that we had our wedding here. They made it the perfect day. :)

    Our AMAZING Separk Experience

    EXCELLENCE. PROFESSIONALISM. TOP TIER! My husband and I absolutely LOVED our Separk experience. The planning was stress-free. The professionalism was on point. The venue is charming and has so much rich character. Our coordinator, Caylea Berger, was so friendly and relatable. She made our experience one to remember. I would HIGHLY recommend Separk to any bride and groom!

    Amazing! Highly recommend

    My husband and I went with the Separk Mansion for their all inclusive option and we were not disappointed. Hannah, the coordinator who was assigned to us was a dream to work with. She truly made our dream a reality on our wedding day! We were so impressed and happy with everything! Highly recommend.

    Separk Mansion Wedding!!!

    I highly recommend this wedding venue! The staff were awesome, and great in responding to emails and questions! I highly recommend an all inclusive if you can. Very very easy wedding planning, and wouldn't have been able to do it without the wedding coordinator. We also really enjoyed the grand tasting, and getting to trying the food options from the different vendors. It was nice talking with other couples as well and getting to know others and their plans. All the vendors were very friendly and helpful on our wedding day. We visited a ton of venues before checking out Separk and this definitely felt like our place to have our wedding.

    Absolutely recommend!

    What an excellent experience. The venue is beautiful and gives you optionality for having indoor and outdoor events without having to necessarily rent a tent for a rain plan. Separk made wedding plan so much easier than we thought it would be. Their package includes so many small things that we didn’t have to seek externally - linens, tables/chairs, alcohol, and partnerships with catering for food, flowers, and cake, which saved us a ton of time. Their wedding planning one to two months before the wedding also saved us from having to hire an external planner. Plus, the Separk employees know the venue better than anyone else, so having them coordinate the planning made more logistical sense. We felt like all of our requests were accommodated for the wedding day and felt that the planners made everything run so smoothly that we didn’t have a single complaint regarding logistics on wedding day. Caylea, the venue manager, was very patient with us throughout the planning process, and made us feel like we were a priority. If I was to do it all again, Separk would be my number one option. It’s close proximity to Charlotte and has everything you need. We are so thankful for Separk making our wedding the best day ever!

    Would 1000000% Recommend Separk!

    Britton & myself recently got married at Separk Mansion in March & had the most wonderful experience from start to finish. From the first day that we toured Separk Mansion until the day of we were treated amazing by the staff and extremely pleased with the process. Christine McBurney, our wedding coordinator, was AMAZING!! She made the experience so great. Separk prides themselves on being a one stop shop for all of your wedding needs when booking at that does not stop at the food, alcohol, vendors, etc…. The people is what really set Separk apart for us. Christine was extremely responsive, helpful, & kind, she would not stop until everything was exactly how we waned it the day of!

    We really enjoyed the grand tasting, trying all of the food options with other couples, it was a nice way to get to know others & hear folks thoughts about their favorite food. The meetings leading up were very organized and productive, the spacing of the meetings worked nicely as well, so leading up the big day we felt very prepared.

    They day of could not have gone smoother. The Separk staff had everything very prepared, organized, and ready to make our day extremely special.

    Having Tin Kitchen as a food option is unreal, seriously some of the best food we have had, our guest still to this day are raving about how good our food was. (the Brussel sprout casserole is life changing, trust me) & the Sunflour Bakery cake was an obvious hit (yes the cake is included in your package as well as a tasting 😊)

    I think it goes without saying, but the property speaks for itself, absolutely stunning! Highly recommend the rose garden cocktail hour, this space is great for mingling.

    Overall we could not be more happy with how our wedding went at Separk. Christine and the entire Separk staff put on the wedding of our dreams and it was the best day ever!

    Magical Wedding day

    Separk Mansion and their staff made our wedding day SO magical. We had the time of our lives.

    1. The planning process with Separk was seamless. We had 3 Total meetings with our coordinator, Amy as well as follow up emails. Each meeting was well planned out and really helped us make our dream wedding a reality. We chose the all inclusive package and it was the best decision we ever made. I am a type A person and I can confidently say that I was able to relax and enjoy getting ready and taking photos with no worries. Amy and the Separk team did such an amazing job setting up everything and also stayed in contact with all of our other vendors.

    2. Separk is such a beautiful venue. I’m a history buff so the fact that Separk as such rich history really stood out to me. The Mansion is so well kept and the original charm shines through! Our guest raved about the beauty of Separk and how one of a kind venue it was.

    3. Our Coordinator Amy was so amazing. She had everything planned to the T and wasn’t afraid to speak up to keep the day running smoothly. We had a very large wedding party and Amy made sure we all stayed on track. She also helped me calm my nerves multiple times and didn’t bat an eye when I emailed her with last min changes.

    Amazing venue

    Our wedding at Separk Mansion was absolutely perfect! The all-inclusive package made wedding planning really easy and as stress-free as possible. They have a great preferred vendors list, we used many of their vendors and loved all of them. The getting ready rooms were great (lots of mirrors for the girls, a TV and a game for the guys), and the venue is so beautiful. There were lots of options for both the ceremony and the cocktail hour, all of which are beautiful. Our guests raved about the food, venue, etc. for weeks. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to get married.

    Highly Recommend Separk

    We highly recommend Separk for all engaged couples! Amy was absolutely great to work with throughout the entire process. She was super flexible with our meetings and super responsive to the many questions I had. Their all inclusive package is hands down the stress-free option to go with. All we had to do was choose from their options (ie. food, cake, and decor) and it was taken care of! The venue is absolutely stunning and decor only adds to its beauty. All of the Separk team is super knowledgeable and so so sweet. Amy executed our wedding day to perfection! If anything went wrong, I still have no idea because she handled everything that day! Separk made the ENTIRE wedding process relaxing and fun for my husband and I. I can’t thank Amy and the rest of the team enough for such an amazing wedding experience ❤️

    No regrets- absolute perfection!

    Cannot recommend Separk enough! My husband and I just got married here over the weekend and everything was absolutely perfect. Caylea, our lead coordinator was so helpful every step of the way. Their package is an incredible value and the venue is so gorgeous you can do as many or as little florals and decor as you would like and it is still stunning. I cannot believe after looking at so many other venues/ hearing stories from friends how much more Separk gives you in their package. We found almost every one of our vendors through their preferred vendors list, we were able to email and ask questions and got timely responses with assistance and recommendations for months leading up to our big day, and we had to do little to no outsourcing for rentals! The whole team there is so knowledgeable and warm. Caylea was amazing at executing everything with perfection on wedding day and even did so many things behind the scenes I was unaware of such as fixing a friend of mine's heel when it broke and another girl's dress strap (neither were in the bridal party either, just guests who needed a hand!). That to me was class, someone who went above and beyond to make sure that every single person was taken care of. I have no clue how she does it day in and day out but I am so thankful for the team there for making this entire process so relaxing and smooth for my husband and I. I would get married here a hundred times over and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a timeless venue that will leave a lasting impression on your guests and will be an amazing backdrop for your fairytale wedding.

    Amazing to say the least!

    Separk mansion was an absolute dream to have for my wedding venue! The staff went above and beyond to help us and made sure everything went perfectly! I was very impressed with the communication throughout the whole process and Amy helping us through every little detail! The day of the wedding was perfect! Again the staff put everything together so beautifully and also worked alongside our other vendors to make sure there were no loose ends! I always dreamed of having my fairytale wedding and wanted nothing to go wrong and Separk definitely fulfilled my wish! I could not have picked a better venue and every person involved in our day will hold a special place in my heart forever!

    Perfect wedding and planner

    Amy Creason was absolutely awesome. She guided us every step of the way and went above and beyond in her efforts to make our wedding the best it could be. Weddings can be super stressful but she took a lot of the heat off of us with her expert guidance and helped us make the choices that fit our vision perfectly.

    The venue was beautiful and I would pick it over all of the ones we visited every time. It was totally perfect, pictures were amazing, setup was amazing, suggestions all worked out perfectly.

    Timeless, stunning wedding venue - book it!

    Our experience with Separk was beyond words. I dragged my fiancé to 10+ venues around the Charlotte area without finding one that checked all the boxes, but the second we stepped foot into Separk we knew it was perfect. First of all, it's simply stunning with a gorgeous flow of outdoor and indoor spaces, and a rain plan that we would've been perfectly happy with had the weather not cooperated. The old-timey Italian ballroom complete with stunning chandeliers, a beautiful staircase, and the black and white tile room allowed us to envision a reception that wouldn't require too much decor. We also loved the getting ready suites upstairs and of course the outdoor gardens. What really sold us on Separk, though, were the amazing coordinators. These girls are so professional, knowledgeable, and kind, and we felt certain we were in good hands.

    The all-inclusive package is perfect to take care of multiple vendors all at once (catering, cake, bar, linens, centerpieces, etc) and it includes 2 months of planning . We worked with Christine who patiently answered all of my questions and follow-up emails quickly and with kindness. They truly think of everything and helped build out the full-day timeline. I believe we had 3 meetings total and it was plenty of time to work through all of the little details. I appreciated that they had experience doing things like a cookie table (I'm from Pittsburgh and it was important to me to have one!), and were willing to do what it would take to bring our vision to life, including opening the French doors during our reception to have an indoor/outdoor feel which we loved. We felt confident that we would be in good hands on the day of.

    A few days before the wedding, Christine let us know that she had gotten sick and that Caylea would be filling in as our day-of coordinator. This last-minute change was unexpected but Christine reassured me she had gone over everything with Caylea and things would go smoothly. Caylea kindly got on the phone with me for an hour as we talked through all the details and small things I had brought up to Christine through the planning process. As promised, Christine had given Caylea the complete run-down and no detail was left unmentioned. I felt so calm going into Saturday knowing that this change would not affect my day.

    Everything about our wedding could not have been nicer. I gasped when I saw how beautifully everything had been set up and Caylea did a great job moving things along throughout the day and into the night. If anything went wrong, I certainly didn't notice! Our schedule ran a little behind (our fault) but Caylea worked with our DJ to rearrange some events in the timeline and things still flowed seamlessly. I also had a fashion emergency at the end of the night where my dress came un-bustled but Caylea sprang into action and pinned my dress back into place. Then, they kindly let us go past our end-time so that I could have one last fun dance with everyone before the send-off.

    Huge thank you to everyone at Separk, especially Christine and Caylea, for giving us the wedding of our dreams. We truly could not have had a better experience!

    Separk made our wedding planning experience so easy

    Separk made our wedding planning experience so easy! We barely felt any stress knowing they were taking care of everything and we could just enjoy our special day. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone. The coordinators Amy and Caylea were always available and helped make good recommendations while making our dream come to life. I had so much fun working with them.

    Dream Venue, Dream Team

    I can't say enough good things about Separk Mansion, but especially about Caylea and her team. You can easily see from photos the draw of Separk Mansion. Classic, elegant, and traditional. It's the type of venue that speaks for itself, and was a no brainer that the commute to Gastonia from Charlotte was worth it for everything you get. I joked with people often that because Separk does catering, beverages, linens, flatware, etc., it was a no-brainer for me to sign the contract (less planning for me! woo!), but genuinely the all-inclusive package made it a breeze. The included caterer had a rough day for our tasting, and Caylea immediately heard my concerns, provided some context and information, and a few additional options. Planning a wedding - things aren't always going to go to plan. There will be snafu's, but I felt way more confident tackling any of those things that came my way with Caylea by my side. I always trusted her to give me the truth, and her professional opinion when I asked for it. She and her team are incredibly detailed and responsive which is the peace of mind every bride needs. Our day went incredibly - everything according to plan. And I've gotten so many compliments from guests on the mansion, decor, and most of all, the set up which we all know I had not a thing to do with. We are so thankful we chose Separk for our big day. My only word of advice is book the local hotel blocks soon after you book separk! It makes logistics easier for your guests, but truly, we all had such a great time, even with a drive back to Charlotte.

    Amazing Experience!

    I cannot say enough good things about Separk! As soon as I drove up to this venue I knew it was the one. It’s elegant, classy, modern and had everything we could have wanted. We were able to have our dream outdoor ceremony and still be inside for our reception. The space was perfect for our wedding size of 100 and could definitely have fit more people comfortably. The added bonus of having a wedding planner was fantastic, Christine helped us every step of the way and I could not have gotten through all of the wedding planning without her. Our wedding day was seamless and we didn’t have to worry about a thing since Separk had it all handled! Highly recommend Separk Mansion for your dream wedding!!

    Smartest Choice We Made - 2nd to each other, of course!

    Our wedding was over 2 months ago and I'm still over the moon about our experience!!

    My husband and I both have demanding jobs and knew that we needed help with a lot of the planning and logistics of the wedding day. We looked at Separk originally because of the all-inclusive accommodations but fell in LOVE with the venue and the staff! Everyone on their team was kind, professional, and proactive on anything that we may have needed throughout the process. I'll also note here that we had one of their more basic packages and about 100 guests so I don't believe any of our experience was influenced by us being "big spenders" and getting special treatment.

    We needed the planning help and found it very helpful to answer questions to our planner instead of having to go through online checklists and ask our own questions. Every curveball they got was met with so much grace including a rogue vendor (that we picked) and forgotten boutonnieres (they crafted something very special with the leftover florals from the cake). The most touching moment of the day was finding that it was predicted to rain and that Caylea and the team had set up two different ceremony configurations just in case we couldn't get married in the garden. I honestly am still floored by how well they treated us. 

    I highly recommend anyone using this venue and their team/preferred vendors! A lot of my DIY friends did not end up saving as much as they thought and they were definitely more stressed. If I could scream our praises on rooftops, I would - in the meantime I'll leave them a lovely review. Thank you so much to Caylea and the Separk team!!

    July 2022 dream wedding @ Separk! 1,000/5 stars!

    We got married at Separk Mansion on July 23, 2022 and it was an absolute dream. We toured the venue in August 2021 and were blown away by how beautiful the venue was, how kind the team was, and how helpful the all inclusive package was that we signed our contract on the spot! As a couple, we've attended 16 weddings together, so we knew how much goes into wedding planning and were prepared to be overwhelmed/stressed out planning our own, but Christine (our amazing planner/day of coordinator) was helpful from the start, connecting us with vendors and helping every single one of our wedding dreams come true. She was a calming, encouraging presence throughout the process and our wedding day was even smoother than we imagined. Everyone tells you that your wedding day flies by in just the blink of an eye, but with Separk's team we had a chance to revel in and enjoy our day, because we didn't have to lift a finger. We can't recommend Separk Mansion enough!!! Not only is it beautiful, but it comes with an amazing team.

    My husband and I had the best experience at Separk! We knew we wanted a quick engagement and Christine was beyond helpful at pulling it all together in just 3 months. The day was more than we could have asked for! My husband and I along with our family and friends were truly able to enjoy the day as absolutely everything was taken care of from start to finish. I am so happy that we decided to get married at Separk!

    Hidden gem, sparkling with southern grace and polished professionalism.

    Separk Mansion genuinely surprised us. We arrived for our tour with zero expectations based on preconceived notions of what Gastonia had to offer and were completely blown away. We brought our daughters with us and their reaction to the mansion was that of Disney magic - they loved the chandeliers, the glamorous bridal suite mirror, floating candles in the fireplace and the "secret" gardens. It was the litmus test we needed, and we all agreed, the facility is gorgeous, and for our loved, elderly guest, it was accessible. During our meeting we learned that the Esquire Hotel a few blocks away frequently host wedding guests, and I can attest that it was booked solid and everyone absolutely loved the accommodations and restaurants in the area. The majority of our guests were traveling in from all over the country (and world!) and the proximity of Separk and The Esquire to Charlotte Douglas International Airport was also a deciding factor.
    Since we are both working professionals, we were looking for as much help with the wedding process as possible and opted for their all-inclusive services. Despite being "all-inclusive," you are not limited to a single vendor for a service. Separk does have preferred vendors that they work with regularly and when choosing them for services, they flawlessly work together. We absolutely loved Delish Cakery, Pink Petunia Designs, Heirloom, Nelson String Quartet and Jeni Buchanan Photography. Another great feature of the mansion is while we obviously wanted to use the beautiful gardens, sometimes there are weather issues... Separk seamlessly transitioned our wedding indoors due to a crazy rainstorm and our guests enjoyed cocktail hour in the upstairs ballroom with the quartet while they transitioned from the ceremony to the reception layout downstairs.
    The venue is wonderful, the staff are so kind and professional. You can always reach your coordinator and they truly make sure your needs are met and jump in to help when you need it (Christine, you rock!) Gastonia is really blossoming. We are a fan of the area (Separk, Webb Custom Kitchen, The Esquire, Poffie Girls) and would highly recommend this area and these venues to others. Separk made our wedding truly storybook and when we think back to that day... all we feel is magic.

    Best venue with the best people

    I literally couldn’t say enough good things about Separk Mansion and the team. We absolutely fell in love with the venue almost two years ago when we got engaged. We also fell in love with the fact that we could do an all inclusive package WITH A WEDDING COORDINATOR at a pretty reasonable price. Completely sold us! Although we booked our date almost two years ago, Separk never failed to answer my questions and keep me updated on my timeline the whole time. In January of this year, we got to meet our amazing coordinator Merit. I can’t begin to say how helpful she was throughout the whole process. If I had a question or concern, she had an answer and a solution. If I forgot something during the process, she remembered it. She made everything go so smoothly.
    Our wedding couldn’t have been more perfect. We are now two weeks out and people are still talking about it and my husband and I are still dreaming about it. We love Separk and definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing venue with amazing people in a small town :)
