About Alexander Homestead by Wedgewood Weddings
Alexander Homestead is a 1903 Queen Anne Victorian estate just minutes from Uptown Charlotte. The home was lovingly restored to its original condition, and today it sits among botanical gardens with heritage roses, a waterfall pond, and oak trees that are around 200 years old. It feels completely tucked away, but your guests can get there in no time.
Couples love Alexander Homestead for its beautiful ceremony spaces, seamless transitions throughout the day, and the peace of mind that comes with Wedgewood Weddings’ planning and coordination support.
The reception space is designed for smooth flow from dinner to dancing, with plenty of room for guest tables, a dance floor, and live entertainment or a DJ. The neutral, classic design allows couples to personalize the space with florals and décor.
