Old Wedding Chapels

in North Carolina
     My future husband and I found the perfect church for us to get married in (Chapel of Rest in Lenoir, NC) however, it is too small to fit our guest list. Does anyone know of churches that are considered "historic" or non-modern looking churches in North Carolina? We want the church to be rustic and classic looking. Please let me know ANY suggestions.

    What is your guest #? There are some places I can think of, but I'm not sure what their capacity is.  Do you have a location preference?

    Our guest number is around 200. We prefer the western or central part of North Carolina but any suggestion will be appreciated!

    Not many churches that were built in that style were meant to hold that many people.  When those buildings were built they often were centered around small communities of a couple dozen families or so. 

    There are many "historic" churches that will hold 200 people but probably won't have the rustic astetic you're going for.

    You may have to re-think your guest list or your "vision".

    There is a really nice place at the South Carolina/North Carolina border. We considered it for our wedding when we were looking. It's called "Pretty Place Chapel" and its an open air chapel, meaning its covered but no walls. If you look it up on google it will bring up pics. Gorgeous location!

    I wonder if All Saints Chapel in Raleigh could fit that many guests?
