OUR STORY

The story of First and Main begins with the serendipitous meeting of two women who found themselves at a crossroads in their professional lives. There was an instant connection. We both possessed a desire to find an outlet for our mutual love of entertaining. We shared matching entrepreneurial spirits open to opportunity. We also connected over our need for a balance between our professional and personal lives, not unlike so many women living in our demanding and often hectic world. What was born of that chance connection is a vibrant and authentic event space that speaks to our love of human connection. Our sincere hope is that our space at First and Main will be the backdrop for the beauty of celebrations among families and friends for years to come. The minute you step foot into First and Main, we want you to experience the love that we have poured into every detail – from the hand-oiled heart pine floors to the carefully curated collection of furnishings. We have endeavored to design a space that will inspire you, each event adding a chapter to a story that we know will be unforgettable for you and for us.

The best thing about memories is making them.

At First and Main, our philosophy is to provide the highest quality personal service to each of our clients, establishing authentic relationships while helping to realize spectacular events no matter how big or small. Our staff is creative, professional and without pretense. We are genuinely invested in the success of your event whether it’s a wedding, charity event, corporate function, business networking or social celebration!

A BIT OF HISTORY

A WELL APPOINTED SPACE

OUR TEAM

A CHARMING LOCALE

"I recently had the pleasure of spending a beautiful evening at First and Main and everything about it delighted my senses. Dana and Jenny have truly created a space with so much soul and beauty. Surrounded by warm and natural elements of wood, greenery and ambient lighting brings everything you love about nature inside. Their design allows for versatility and originality which means the possibilities for celebration and connection are endless. They have curated such exquisite furnishing, fixtures and decor and their attention to detail is remarkable. The Knightdale and surrounding communities are so lucky to have access to a venue like First and Main. A venue that represents the community it serves and honors the people and their loved ones. It is truly timeless and will evolve and adapt to ever-changing needs, desires and visions. First and Main has a big, wild heart and anyone who experiences its warmth is sure to be filled up with endless joy."

"Gorgeous spot for any event and such a cool edition to Knightdale! This woman owned business is led by top notch professionals with amazing style. They really have all the resources you need inside! Definitely check this place out for your next event."

"A hidden gem! I was recently at an intimate Ladies Night Out at First and Main. Beautifully appointed with high ceilings and vintage decor! A great location in the Old Towne District of Knightdale - perfect for any gathering or event as the space is so customizable. I particularly liked the party bus in the back so that bridal parties or party goers have their own private space to get ready before the event. I recommend this new business wholeheartedly and can't wait to go back."

"Gorgeous venue for special events! The staff is a dream to work with and their knowledge is top notch. The ambiance in First and Main is warm and inviting, and the lighting is amazing. Highly recommend!"

"Stunning venue with a vintage vibe!"

"This space is BREATH-TAKING!! I love having such a charming event space right in the heart of downtown Knightdale. During the late afternoon/early evening, the most gorgeous light shines through the front windows that creates a romantic vibe. 10/10 Perfect for any occasion."

"Held my son's rehearsal dinner at First and Main. Everything was perfect! They worked with me and the caterer, accommodated last minute changes, provided everything they promised to and stayed on site (but out of sight) to assist with any questions or needs we had. Most of the guests (locals) did not know that the venue existed and repeatedly commented on how great it was. Many stated that there was no way a restaurant setting would have been as personal and delightful as this setting. Only regret - wish I had taken more pictures. Highly recommend!"

"Gorgeous venue for a wedding, reception, or even a corporate gathering. First and Main is a beautifully decorated space and the owners have a finite attention to detail. I love that it is truly unique to other event spaces in the area. Another great perk to this venue is that with such lovely decor already in place, and farm tables and chairs available on-site, it's event-ready as-is. I would highly recommend scheduling a tour so you can see for yourself all that First and Main has to offer!"
