Let Beaufort's Past Showcase the Beautiful Beginning of Your Future...

Located in the heart of historic Beaufort-by-the-Sea, a charming and picturesque coastal North Carolina seaport, the Beaufort Historic Site offers a spacious outdoor setting in which to hold your wedding, reception, or other memorable celebration. The two-acre site features many incredible settings for your big event, whether it's a springtime or summer wedding under our beautiful magnolia tree, a fall or winter wedding inside the circa 1796 Carteret County Courthouse which has recently been restored in award-winning detail, or a wedding or reception under classic white tents.

The Beaufort Historic Site transports guests back in time, offering not only the perfect setting for your celebration, but also tours and activities for guests of all ages. A popular extra for those holding their wedding or other big event on the North Carolina coast is the Beaufort Historic Site's vintage red English double decker bus. Gather your wedding party and other guests for a special tour of the town atop our bus which can carry up to 72 people. Even if you're not holding your wedding or big event at the Beaufort Historic Site, the red double decker bus is available for rental, and has been used for such occasions as transporting guests to the Coastal Living Idea House in Oriental, transporting guests to wedding receptions at nearby North Carolina beaches, etc. Call 252.728.5225 or 800.575.7483 for additional information and availability.

See the Beaufort Historic Site's ad, featured in Crystal Coast Bride Magazine. For additional information regarding holding your big event at the Beaufort Historic Site, phone 252.728.5225 or 800.575.7483, or email us.
