Whitehead Manor Conference Center

Whitehead Manor is the house and grounds on Sardis Road in southeast Charlotte. Gardens, greenery and older architecture give a photographer plenty to work with across the property. Conference facilities keep it busy midweek, so weekend wedding dates are the ones to ask about. Couples regularly describe touring it first and then canceling their other tours. The staff are flexible with changes, and the venue is easy to reach from Matthews, SouthPark and the rest of the south side without fighting Uptown traffic.
