    Are you military?  I think the armories are old raggedy buildings and you would have to do a lot of decorations to make it look like something.

    Have you been there? 

    As far as armories go, I think the Durham one is pretty.  It's architecturally interesting, and is part of the Civic Center Complex.  I don't think it's a typical armory.

    That said, I've only driven by, not been inside.

    Thanks for the response ladies! I have looked up photos online and have talked to a few people who had weddings there. They had a good experience.

    The Durham armory hosts a LOT of events.  I haven't been inside, but I know people who have been there, and they say that it is beautiful and would be fine for something like a wedding reception.

    Good luck!!

  • Does anyone have pictures of a wedding they've been to or had at the Durham armory? From what I've googled, I only found one wedding group. I would like to get a better feel of what it would look like decorated before I choose.
