Currituck Beach Lighthouse Weddings

Booking Details

We are happy to accommodate wedding ceremonies for up to 150 guests. Because of staff capacity and the size of our historic site, we are unable to host receptions. Your wedding reservation includes admission to the lighthouse property for you and your guests. A fee of $500 is required in order to book a wedding ceremony on-site.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • We ask that the ceremony take place between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.; the lighthouse and grounds will remain open to the public.
  • Ceremonies must take place in the southwest corner of the site.
  • All equipment logistics (this includes set-up and take-down of chairs, decor, etc.) should take place on the day of the wedding.
  • Arrangement for chairs, tables, tents, and decorations is the responsibility of the Lessee.
  • Birdseed and flower petals may be used, however tossing rice, confetti, or other materials is prohibited.
  • Portable music or small ensembles are allowed, as outlined within the terms of the Wedding Ceremony Agreement.
  • During the ceremony, at least one member of the Lighthouse staff will be present on-site.
  • Motorized vehicles are prohibited within the fenced compound.
  • Regular admissions and suggested donations apply to guests who wish to climb the lighthouse.
  • In the case of inclement weather that prohibits the ceremony from taking place on-site, many couples choose to use their reception site as a backup location.

A very beautiful red brick lighthouse with a very high height and beautiful and pleasant surrounding environment. Even if you donโ€™t climb the tower, itโ€™s still nice to walk around.

Great time climbing, 220 steps so be prepared! Good view, bit windy so hang on to your hat, nice staff, no wait time when we went - but was told during peak summer season there is a small wait. There is a nice FREE museum across the street worth seeing. Seemed to be plenty of parking. Small fee to climb - non profit, so worth the small entrance fee. Overall a good value for your buck.

While staying in Corolla on vacation, we decided to explore the Currituck beach lighthouse. It was great! Very friendly staff, informational pamphlet, and thereโ€™s a gift shop right next to it. The view from the top is amazing!
Iโ€™ve lived in NC for over a decade and weโ€™ve never been to a lighthouse! Kids over 4 are able to climb. Itโ€™s a little disorienting, but thankfully thereโ€™s a landing at each level. The very top offers an incredible view! The entire grounds are beautiful to walk and explore, and thereโ€™s even a museum detailing the history of this area. OBX is quickly becoming a favorite NC spot, and weโ€™ll definitely be back (in the off season).On a Friday during off season we were able to get in and go up north problem.

Beautiful historic lighthouse just north of Corolla on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The lighthouse sits in a large green space with boardwalks and pathways that connect the various sites that you can visit.First used in 1875 and just beautiful, the lighthouse is worth a visit if visiting the area.
