Looking to keep a reasonable budget for your wedding and not sure what venues will work best? We highly recommend checking out Whispering Pines of Carlisle. In our opinion, it’s one of the best and most affordable wedding venues around, and here’s why we think so:
The People
First of all, if you’re anything like us, you’re not only looking for a great space, but also great people to work with – and you can’t get any better than the owners, Deb & Tracy! They are a dynamic duo who truly care about each of their couples well beyond the wedding day. O, and don’t worry about how helpful they will be throughout the planning process. Both ladies are super easy to work with and will provide any helpful tips they can along the way. It’s no exaggeration to say they bend over backwards for their brides.
The Price
When it comes to pricing, renting the space in 2023 will cost you anywhere from $4,400-5,200 and includes tables (round and farmhouse!!), chairs, and white linens. This is a huge budget saver when you consider saving on renting linens or farmhouse tables! Plus, there aren’t hidden fees that you have to worry about finding out about at the last minute. Like we said, these ladies take care of ya!

The Space
As for the space itself, Whispering Pines is located northwest of downtown Carlisle. The property is very well maintained with pine trees lining the driveway to the venue. Once on site you’ll notice a sweet outdoor ceremony space. The cool part? It’s slightly terraced so your guests will actually be able to see you during the ceremony. Brides – don’t worry – it’s not steep enough you need to worry about tripping down the aisle 🙂
On the other side of the building is the patio for cocktail hour. During the summer months wind sails offer shade and sophistication to the space. The lawn is available should you want to include lawn games, additional cocktail tables and mingling space for your guests. From there you can also see the lavender field on the hill that makes for some lovely photos when in full bloom around June!
The bride and groom suite are just off the ballroom so you are able to get ready on site and leave your belongings there during the event. The ballroom holds up to 250 people and is already set up with a dance floor, ceiling draping, a shiplap accent wall, and two fireplaces. It is truly a canvas for you to bring in the décor of your choice, or select from their free options on-site as well!
