“A very popular wedding venue nestled on the outskirts of Maiden, NC. The Providence Cotton Mill gives you an old-world charm, with an inviting outdoor feel. Surrounded by green fields and a plush forest, the 130 year old, two story building is a natural light paradise thanks to the arched, open windows. The main hall is a 10,000 sq. ft. area, giving the ability to divide into ceremony and reception. The front of the mill, adorned with the large main tower, is the perfect backdrop for an outdoor wedding on the lawn. The perfect setting of old-world charm with an inviting, outdoor feel.

Average rating: 4.7 stars based on 200+ google reviews


“The Laboratory Mill is in Lincoln County, NC, just four miles from downtown Lincolnton while being centrally located between Charlotte, Mooresville, and Hickory. The mill is nestled in the foothills of North Carolina, beside the scenic South Fork of the Catawba River with beautiful views of the dam and surrounding Catawba Lands Conservancy. The Laboratory Mill is completely climate controlled, which is a MUST in the South. With our many large windows, you’ll both see and feel the beauty of the great outdoors without the worries of humidity, heat, rain or snow. Industrial but not just Industrial – the large windows, a unique clerestory with exposed heart pine beams, original hardwood flooring, and distressed brick walls add to the Industrial/Vintage Vibe in our 200 year old historical mill.”
