The Grande Victorian

The Grande Victorian is a historic wedding venue in Monroe, North Carolina, set on a 6-acre estate built in 1884. The property includes a 5,000 sq ft formal ballroom, a large covered outdoor pavilion, and newly renovated bride and groom suites, situated in a Queen Anne-style Victorian estate. The venue reopened in 2022 under the ownership of Ingram Walters and Ann Walters, who oversaw renovations to preserve its historic character. Located at 1710 West Franklin Street in Monroe, NC, within 25 miles of Charlotte and accessible from Waxhaw, Weddington, Marvin, Matthews, Indian Land SC, and Lancaster SC. Multiple photographers note the well-maintained grounds, charming atmosphere, and capacity to host large weddings; a couple married in September 2024 described the day-of coordination as seamless, while one review raised concerns about communication and organization in the lead-up to and during their wedding.
