Industrial-Chic Weddings in Downtown Garner
The Distillery is a modern, industrial-chic wedding venue in downtown Garner, about 15 minutes from the heart of Raleigh. It offers 8,300 square feet of event space with three gathering areas, polished concrete floors, gold metal accents and clean, modern lines that work with almost any wedding style. A landscaped courtyard with an all-season turf garden opened in September 2025.
Why We Love DJing at The Distillery
We've DJ'd at The Distillery, and it's one of the best rooms in the Triangle for a real dance party. Here's how a Discoboxx wedding comes together there:
Sound that fits the room: Concrete floors and an open industrial space can make sound harsh if it isn't set up right. We tune our system so the music feels full and punchy on the dance floor without being too loud at the tables.
Ceremony and cocktail hour: Whether your ceremony is in the courtyard or inside, we run separate ceremony and cocktail hour sound so guests hear every word and the music follows them.
Lighting that pops: The venue's clean lines and neutral palette are a perfect canvas for lighting. Uplighting or one of our dance floor lighting kits transforms the room once the sun goes down.
A booth that looks the part: Our custom wooden DJ booths match the modern-meets-warm feel of the space and look great in photos.
Planning Tips for The Distillery
Use the courtyard: It's a great spot for a ceremony or cocktail hour, so plan music for it and let us know early.
Plan the flow between spaces: With three gathering areas, map out where the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception happen so we can place sound in each.
Make the most of 12 hours: The rental includes a 12-hour window, which gives you room for getting ready on site and a full night of dancing.
