Our wedding venue at The Vieux is very versatile. You can choose to get married in front of the mountains up by the gazebo and outside chapel, on the balcony of The Vieux in front of Mt.

Wherever you choose, your wedding will be unique and just as you choose it to be. We don't charge an exorbitant amount for our venue because we want you to be able to afford to stay at The Vieux and have your wedding all rolled into one at a great price. Some choose to do everything DIY while others choose to have a wedding coordinator, catered food and decorators come to prepare everything for them. Whatever you choose is up to you so it can be your perfect day on The Mustard Seed property at Your Home Away From Home in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. All of your guests can stay too in our 7 other cabins on the same 12 acres/mountain top.

This venue was an answer to prayer, the perfect place to have my smaller wedding with a rustic family gathering vibe. The Vieux doubles as an Airbnb and wedding venue, which was the ideal space for my wedding since my family was from out of town. Knowing that I was paying one price for lodging for my family and a wedding venue all in one was a major source of peace of mind. It was so wonderful not worrying about having to book two different venues for the ceremony and reception! Not to mention how beautiful both the cabin and grounds are! We were going to have our ceremony on top of the mountain with the mountain views in the background but the uncertainty of the weather influenced our decision to have it down at the cabin instead. We did take our couple portraits at the top of the mountain with the views though! The Vieux has so many options - inside and outside - for both ceremony and reception locations (if weather doesn't look like it will cooperate!) Having those options was amazing, as well as the host's communication, responsiveness and willingness to help at every step of the process - also an answer to prayer. Kathryn was a phenomenal host and I highly recommend her and her venue! She helped us so much, kept in constant communication whenever I had questions or needed any kind of help. It all culminated in the most beautiful and special day that my husband and I could imagine. We will always look back on our wedding with the sweetest memories - all made possible by Kathryn and The Vieux. It truly did feel like our home away from home!

I am so glad I decided to get married at Historic Ann’s. The hosts are friendly and communicative, and happy to answer any questions. The space is absolutely beautiful and very enchanting. We were able to decorate the spaces to match our theme & vision for the event, which made things even more special. Having the different areas available helped to keep the party moving, provide spaces to rest from dancing, and gather in spaces away from the music so you can talk. It was also nice to be able to rent the Airbnb’s so we didn’t have to worry about where we were staying those nights.

10/26/2024 It has taken me a while to completely process how perfect our wedding day was. We and our wedding party opted to stay at the Spring Creek Inn and the Main Inn for the Friday and Saturday of our wedding weekend and I can't speak highly enough of it. The accommodations were perfect and the food was immaculate. We wanted authentic, autumnal Tennessee energy and Hachland Hill delivered perfectly. I will daydream of this place for many years to come. Their event coordinator made sure the day flowed perfectly from the venue's side of things. The natural scenery of the venue allows for you to skip on many of the frilly decorations because the beauty of the land is more than enough! October leaves fell as we said our vows in the rock garden, it truly was the most stunning day. The fire places, the sound of the creek, the family heirlooms in the Inn, every little detail is perfection. If you're looking for a venue that has it all -- this is it! PS: Opt for the golf cart and the late night hot dog bar. You'll thank me later 3

We did their partial planning package with Sarah as our planner and I cannot say enough good things about her and our entire experience there. From our first inquiry to our actual wedding day they have been incredible. Sarah is SO organized, kept us on track during all of our check in meetings, and perfectly brought my vision to life. I feel like throughout the entire process all we kept saying is “oh my gosh thank god for Sarah” because she’s so great at what she does and we truly felt like she became a friend! The venue itself is gorgeous and spacious and they have an open vendor policy which really allows you to make the space your own. I wish we could get married all over again based on our experience! Thank you 14Tenn, Sarah & the 828 Planning team!!!"

We couldn't have imagined a more perfect setting for our wedding than The Caldwell Inn. From the moment we booked, their professionalism and warm communication gave us complete confidence that we were in great hands. We exchanged countless emails throughout the planning process, and every single question—big or small—was answered quickly and thoroughly. The team never missed a beat. What truly sets The Caldwell Inn apart is the full weekend experience they offer. Having exclusive access to the 5-bedroom mansion meant our entire wedding party could stay together, creating memories that extended far beyond the ceremony. The groom’s cabin provided a perfect, private spot for the guys to relax and get ready. And the full kitchen in the mansion made meals and late-night snacks easy and enjoyable. The outdoor pavilion and stage with dance floor were absolutely magical for the reception, and knowing we had the chapel available as a weather backup gave us total peace of mind. The added touch of the trolley service was a guest favorite—it added charm and made transportation effortless. Every inch of the property felt intentional and inviting. The venue didn’t just host our wedding—it elevated it. If you’re looking for a place that offers beauty, flexibility, and five-star service, The Caldwell Inn is it. We’re still glowing from the experience and so grateful to have celebrated our wedding at such a special place.
