Most people do not like to feel small, but it’s one of my favorite things. I love to stand in front of something grand and enjoy its splendor. When you step into the Providence Cotton Mill, you feel just that, small! There is a grand thirty food tall ceiling where the floor has been removed between the two stories. Upon stepping inside you see huge arched open-air windows that let a remarkable breeze through. We met with Heather Benge for a gorgeous editorial at this beautiful Wedding Venue near Charlotte NC.
Heather with Styled Shoots Across America brought together a timeless event that left no detail out. She styled a gorgeous tablescape, bar cart, seating area, and ceremony site at the mill that was all impeccable. Every nuanced detail was covered for a gorgeous shoot that will spark all the fall wedding vibes and inspiration.

With the charm of the brick building with its wooden, exposed beams, and distressed plaster walls, The Providence Cotton Mill provides the perfect setting that is unrivaled in beauty, character, and warmth.
The History
Maiden, North Carolina was founded around 1880, but its history goes further back than that. The Mill in Maiden was originally an iron forge during the war of 1812. The Carpenter family established a cotton mill in Maiden, NC around 1880, then a number of years later around 1888 built Providence Cotton Mill on the site of the iron forge. Now functioning as a gorgeous event venue. See some of our favorite images from our time at The Providence Cotton Mill. Enjoy.
