General Rental Center is woefully located on a road that is accessible only via the Waffle House parking lot (or a hidden-ish dirt road off Christian, about 1/5 a mile ahead). I greeted the front desk guy and told him I was interested in some glassware rentals for the weekend. I'd looked at the website in advance, so had an idea of what I wanted; at the Center, I got to look at them in person and confirm. The really cool thing is that they don't charge an extra fee for splitting a rack (competitors I looked at will charge you $5 to do this). They also said I could pick up anytime Friday, instead of having to get them Saturday. AND I didn't even have to pay a deposit or sign any paperwork. I mean, I did only rent a total of 50 pieces; but I've worked with rental operations before, and I have to say GRC's flexibility is really awesome. On top of that, the guy who helped me was exceptionally personable and made one of today's "chores" a pleasure!

Do NOT book your private event with Oak City Events! We hosted our welcome party at The Avenue and…read moreit was a disaster from start to finish. Alexis made big promises, but completely failed to deliver. Communication was poor throughout the planning process, and I had to chase her for basic details about our bar package--details she clearly didn't even know. The day of the event, no one was there at our scheduled drop-off time, forcing us to leave décor outside unattended. When we arrived to set up, nothing was where we had agreed during our walkthrough. The champagne wall wasn't up, welcome table was missing, and the bar menus Alexis designed weren't out. Then she lied and claimed those signature drinks suddenly weren't included in our package (despite previously confirming they were in writing) and the bar didn't even have the right ingredients for them. Our event started and guests arrived before setup was complete. The staff put champagne in wine and whiskey glasses (when our contract clearly states we'd get champage glasses), our slideshow wasn't playing, and the "complimentary desserts" we were promised never appeared. AND the WORST part- A sober and pregnant guest was served alcohol when she ordered a Shirley Temple! HOW does that even happen?!? That is beyond negligent and dangerous, there is NO excuse!! Alexis blamed me (the bride) for the confusion and chaos, when I was the only one keeping the day on track and her team clearly dropped the ball. She was nowhere to be found when guests arrived, despite promising she'd be there to greet them and hand out drink our tokens. Bottom line: they're disorganized, dishonest, and unprofessional. Save yourself the stress--do not book your event with them!

My husband and I chose The Skyroom NC for our wedding, and it was without question the best decision we could have made. When we visited in December 2024, the property was still under construction, but after meeting Jen Schaefer and hearing her vision for the space, we were instantly sold. The venue offers a spacious layout surrounded by beautiful natural scenery, with thoughtfully designed walking paths, outdoor seating, and a seamless indoor/outdoor bar. It also includes a bridal suite, groom's suite, childcare area, and unique seating options that give the space so much character. For our reception, we chose round tables with eight guests per table, and everyone was comfortable. The setup created a generous dance floor right in front of our sweetheart table--perfect for letting everyone get their groove on. The entire evening felt magical. I loved everything from the outdoor ceremony details, cocktail hour and a sparkler exit. Everything flowed seamlessly. Jen and her team were exceptional, and I'll forever be grateful for their thoughtfulness and dedication to making our wedding day even more perfect than we imagined. If you're considering The Skyroom NC for an event, don't hesitate. You won't regret it--I promise!

There's plenty of parking and the actual venue itself is very spacious with plenty of options for table set up. I really liked the bride and groom suites as they were spacious and there was plenty of room to get ready. The designated spaces for a bar, dancing and DJ was layed out well and I felt everyone had plenty of room. I really liked the lightening and the extra touches they provided and the staff seemed to go above and beyond to ensure everything went off perfectly. The bride and groom enjoyed the day and had everything taken care of. This is a beautiful venue and worth looking into if you're in the area.
