From the reviews

I photographed a wedding here this weekend, and was so impressed. The couple had access to the venue for their entire weekend- including a beautiful suite to stay in- which made the wedding day so smooth and relaxed. They were ahead of schedule all day, because they got to prepare so well.

AMAZING photo opportunities in historic downtown Kinston for weddings or any social event!! Check out some of the shots taken here, it is truly encompasses the culture of a beautiful historic Carolina Downtown including Arts and Cultural District, Neuse River, Train Tracks, and lots of beautiful bricks.

★★★★★ — Eric, Aug 2022

Wild Oaths is the perfect wedding venue in Eastern NC. It has the perfect vintage/industrial vibe that we were looking for. Everyone that attended the wedding couldn’t get over how perfect the venue was. Wild Oaths owner, Heinz and his staff, Ruby and Sarah, are absolutely the best and are super helpful.

★★★★★ — Kelly, Mar 2024

Wild Oaths did not disappoint! The modern / vintage theme is carried out throughout the entire building in the furniture & original building construction! The hosts are welcoming and so kind! It can accommodate a party of a wide variety; wedding, anniversaries, reunions, etc.

Getting married at Wild Oaths

Wild Oaths comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.

Corporate events & private parties at Wild Oaths

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at Wild Oaths — barn venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
