Rosa Lee Manor was an incredible venue for our wedding. Their communication was very quick, whether by email or text, which was so helpful during the planning process. Everything was clean and organized, and the price was very reasonable compared to other places, especially considering all that they offer. They made everything so smooth for us on the day, and we even got a complimentary breakfast basket! It was so convenient that they had a house on the property where we could have both our ceremony and reception. The house sleeps 12, so our bridal party was able to stay with us and get ready there as well. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day.

I wanted a wedding venue in the mountains of North Carolina. I viewed so many venues from Salem to Banner Elk. Nothing compared to The Fields of Blackberry Cove. They were easy to set up a viewing appointment with. They walked us all around the property, including multiple ceremony options and a large guest house with a bridal suite and two guest bathrooms. Doug, the owner, offers his own catering which was beyound incredible. We did a buffet style and it was all delicious. Doug even made me my own cauliflower steak - I'm a vegetarian. Through the entire process Doug and his team, especially Carmen, were a pleasure to work with.

Emerald Ridge made every part of our weekend so perfect and special. This location and views are absolutely STUNNING. The owners truly cared so much and made our day magical. Their organization and communication are both top notch. We recommend using the coordinator at the venue, Malorie, as she was the true MVP and knows every detail at this venue back to front. We booked the no rush weekend and used the venue for our rehearsal as well. Our dog stayed with us all weekend as well which made us feel right at home. All in all we couldn’t be happier and enjoyed every minute here.

Weaver House is a gorgeous venue supported by wonderful staff. From the beginning stages of planning to final touches to the day itself, we felt so well-taken care of and supported. The space itself is airy and elegant—both the lush gardens outdoors and the bright indoor spaces are immaculately maintained and feel very private despite being right off the main street of downtown Weaverville. We were looking for an indoor/outdoor location that felt sophisticated without being stuffy, and Weaver House fit the bill perfectly. While the beauty of the venue stands on its own, the team of individuals supporting Weaver House is what made our experience so wonderful. Alexandra was an immensely valuable asset to our wedding planning experience—she celebrates your vision for the day while providing great recommendations and expertly and calmly guiding you through all of the little details. She was a rockstar on our wedding day and made everything run seamlessly. Don't even bother looking for outside catering, because Chef Joey is incredible—he curated a fantastic BBQ dinner that our guests were talking about for weeks. His genuine passion and enthusiasm for food shines through in his cooking and in his collaborative and joyful process to menu planning. We could not recommend Weaver House more!
