Capacity & Layout
The Power House offers 4,000 square feet of characterful space that can accommodate weddings for up to 200 guests. The century-old brick building, with its 10-foot windows and exposed wood beams, gives couples a warm, industrial-chic setting overlooking the Tar River, and while there is outdoor patio space available, there is also a loft upstairs, so the event can flow across multiple levels indoors. That layout lets couples exchange vows on the patio or by the river, then celebrate in the warehouse space or use the loft, giving the day a natural flow with a genuine weather plan. The Power House also offers an exclusive micro-wedding package designed for a seamless experience for up to 50 guests. That combination of a 4,000-square-foot warehouse space, an outdoor patio, an upstairs loft, and a capacity up to 200 suits intimate to mid-size weddings, keeping the celebration characterful and connected from the ceremony through the last dance in Rocky Mount.
Amenities
The Power House pairs its industrial-chic setting with genuinely convenient, full-service amenities. The venue works exclusively with its catering partner, Rocky Top, for all food needs, ensuring top-quality, delicious service, and it asks couples to work with a planner from its Preferred Vendors list, so the celebration is expertly coordinated. As part of the Rocky Mount Mills campus, guests can stay the night in the boutique tiny-house hotel just steps away, and the campus’s beer incubator with seven breweries gives the wedding weekend a genuinely vibrant backdrop. The century-old brick building, the 10-foot windows, the exposed wood beams, and the Tar River views give photographers a characterful, industrial-chic range of backdrops. For the entertainment, the enclosed warehouse space gives a wedding DJ excellent structure and characterful acoustics to build sound and lighting into, so the reception fills the space and the dance floor stays lively at a stylish riverfront Rocky Mount venue.
