We got engaged in July 2023. With a Fall wedding date set in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains, my then fiance and I knew we'd need to start lookin' and bookin' ASAP due to the very popular tourist leaf season. After numerous venue tours in and around the WNC area, we chose Weaver House for a multitude of reasons: 1) PRICE - this venue was half the cost of several other WNC venues of similar size and style 2) LOCATION - Weaver House is smack-dab in the middle of the quaint, yet sublime, Weaverville and you wouldn't even know it 3) SIZE - we had originally estimated to have about 100 guests (ended up with just shy of 50 - yay!) and Weaver House was not too big, not too small, but absolutely just right and 4) STAFF - Alexandra (Event Coordinator) and Joey (Head Chef) are some of the most amazing, kind, laidback, and down-to-earth people we have met, in addition to all of the bar and wait staff - all great things to have around you on your wedding day and leading up to it! We absolutely would not have traded this venue and our experience with them for anything else, even if we had Biltmore money!! Much much love to Weaver House and all involved 3

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even begin?! From the moment we arrived at Nantahala lake we fell in love all over again. This hidden NC gem is one of the most serene, magical places I have ever been. Nantahala Weddings and Events made all my wedding dreams come true and it was absolutely perfect. If I could give them 10 stars I would. My wedding here was everything I dreamed of and more. I absolutely loved all the options to customize and choose your own vendors. I became very frustrated early on in my wedding planning process because I didn't want to have my vendors chosen for me by my venue. While Jody, the venue owner, has a list of trusted vendors (that are wonderful btw), you don't have to use them. Being based in Atlanta, we used a mixture of local vendors, Atlanta vendors, and Asheville Vendors. The venue spaces are sensational, and the views are the best in the area! Jody is absolutely amazing and such a joy to work with through the entire planning process. Not only is she professional and prompt, but you can tell she loves what she does and she loves the couples who choose Nantahala. She was able to help me so much through the planning process with recommendations and tips. The venue is in the woods in the mountains overlooking Nantahala Lake. It can be used for a wide variety of wedding styles from casual to formal (my theme was elegant bohemian!)- which I think makes it attractive for so many different brides and grooms looking for an outdoor venue. It is also completely dog friendly!! There are so many options to make it exactly what you want. Bonus, there is no end time, set schedule, or noise restrictions! The package I chose meant I had the venue Thursday - Monday so I was able to host a wide variety of wedding events (Rehearsal, Ceremony, Reception, After party bonfire, Sunday Brunch) all at my own leisure. It truly is an all in one venue at one great price! The venue has lodging options right on the site which is amazing. I was barely in the car the whole weekend! There are also several cabins within walking distance of the venue. Overall, I could not imagine having my wedding anywhere else. It truly was the best day of my life. This place is magic and I would recommend it a 100 times over!
