Tirzah Caffee

Co-owning the Alexander Homestead is a huge joy and privilege to me. When I was 14, my parents bought a historic home in Missouri, and we spent my high school years renovating it. My sister was married at The Larimore in 1994 and this was the birth of our family’s involvement in weddings.

Growing up around weddings gives me a unique ability to run our business and work with our couples. I have a passion for the wedding industry, but more specifically, female entrepreneurship. My family has owned and operated 5 different venues, so we truly know how to meet the needs of today’s busy couples. In addition to our venue, I founded Charlotte Local Wedding Show (a show that features predominately all female-owned, local businesses), Live Encouraged (a life-coaching course), and enjoy public speaking in the wedding industry and coaching other venue owners to aid in their success.

Nicole Martin

I grew up in Buffalo, NY, and made my way to Charlotte in 2017. I love the North Carolina weather and southern charm. Being part of the team at Alexander Homestead fulfills me in many ways. My real passion is meeting people and hearing their stories. Every day I get to connect with couples who are recently engaged and overwhelmed with thoughts of “Where do we even start?”. I believe planning your wedding should be fun, so I take pride in educating others on our full-service venue. I like to laugh so there will be lots of that when we meet.

Carolann Price

Hi! I am Carolann, wife to an amazing husband and dog mom to the sweetest Boston Terrier. After years in food service management at Chick-fil-A, I went into the education field to pursue special education with my Bachelor’s degree from UNCC. Even though I have a love for teaching, I found I have an even greater passion for wedding planning. I have experience in wedding planning and coordination, and I love working with couples to plan a beautiful day they will always remember. So much time, planning, and preparation is put into a wedding, and it is the best feeling when it all comes together so beautifully. My favorite part about any wedding is always the ceremony. I almost always will have goosebumps watching a ceremony. It is such a special moment to get to witness. When I am not managing weddings, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, shopping, visiting the beach or mountains, and most often, relaxing!

Joy

Joy Greer

My name is Joy, mother to three daughters, and wife to one wonderful man. I truly love what I get to be a part of here at the Homestead. I have participated in executing hundreds of wedding and receptions, and so enjoy watching two people declare their love and commitment for each other, in the presence of their people. I am super resourceful, positive, and love to find creative ways to handle the unexpected. It is always such an honor for me to walk with a bride and groom through their special day! Some of my favorite things include exploring nature, hanging out with teenagers, jewelry making, and traveling with my family!

Danielle

Danielle Dolson

Hi there! I’m Danielle, a sunshine loving Florida gal who made her way up to Charlotte two years ago. I am an avid traveler, love hearing people’s stories, and will never say no to a good chai latte. I went to the University of Central Florida where I received by Bachelor’s in English and Creative Writing, but found I enjoyed being a part of other people’s stories and big events, more than just writing about them. I have done photography as a side hustle for years, which was a great gateway into the wedding business. I am thrilled to get to work in an industry that helps curate both beautiful events and plays a part in helping people create lifelong memories, all alongside a team that is passionate about what they do every day. In my free time you can find me going on a last-minute road trip, curled up with a book at a coffee shop, or trying out new restaurants and breweries with friends.

Bradley Caffee

I have the great privilege of getting to be co-owner of the Alexander Homestead. Now in my second career, I began as a minister for 12 years where I grew to love helping people, especially couples getting married. Now I spend my time making certain your venue is ready and waiting for your guests. From keeping the property looking beautiful to making sure quality staff is in place, I am usually the unseen part of this team but still love hearing that guests thought your wedding was stunning. I also serve as the teacher for our Marriage Enrichment Seminar that we offer to all of our couples. From time to time, you may even catch me serving bar at your reception, running your photo booth, or serving dinner to your guests.

When I am not at the Homestead, you will find me helping my two teenagers with school projects, working out at the gym, or writing my latest novel. The last novel in The Chase Runner Series releases in September 2022. After God, my wife, and my kids, my writing brings me the most joy in life. A quiet corner with headphones is all I need to get lost for hours as the story comes together. Beyond that, I am a stock-holding fan of the Green Bay Packers, a huge Star Wars geek, and an avid board game player.

Being a native Charlottean, I have seen the city morph from anonymity into metropolis. I remember driving past the Homestead and admiring the property so many times over the years. What a delight to now be a part of this Charlotte “secret”. Preservation of history and nature are core to my values. The best part of my job is getting to share my love of Alexander Homestead’s beautiful property and gardens with everyone that visits here. I know that when I plant a tulip bulb, select a specific purple flower or enhance a photographic spot, by pruning a shrub just a certain way, that I am a part of making every event special. Having been a gardener for over 20 years, working for private clients and teaching students at local schools, there is always something new to learn, enjoy and share. When I’m not working in the garden, I love spending time with my two teenagers, creating costumes, all forms of art and play, watching the clouds and dance parties with friends.
