Abbie Matthews is the half of the heart behind the vision of Circle M Estates. A graduate of High Point University with a degree in Event Management, she has always had a passion for events and creating meaningful, beautifully executed celebrations.
Abbie loves working closely with clients to bring their vision to life, approaching each event with creativity, organization, and genuine care. Outside of the estate, she enjoys spending time with family, friends, and her fiancé, Sterling, relaxing at the beach, and discovering which Netflix shows are worth watching.
The Cyrus House and The High Ridge Chapel are the realization of a dream years in the making. The chapel was built, and the house completed in time for Abbie’s wedding in June 2026, making her the first bride to be married at Circle M Estates. For Abbie, this venue is more than a business — it is a place where love stories, including her own, begin, and lifelong memories are made.
