Highland is definitely the best venue in Asheville! The rooftop has beautiful mountain views, the barrel room has a great skylight and hanging greenery, and the reception space can be made into whatever you want it to be. We used all three spaces for our wedding and it has great flow and plenty of space for a larger guest count. Erin & Bailey were both extremely helpful throughout the entire process from touring/initial questions to all the tiny details leading up to the big day. Our wedding was scheduled shortly after the hurricane in fall 2024, and we were so passionate about having it at Highland that we rescheduled to 6 months later, and couldn’t be happier with our decision. Amazing staff, excellent draft beer, convenient to downtown, and a beautiful space; we can’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else!

I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience at the Magnolia. From the start, Macey was so helpful and answered all of my questions quickly! The day of the event, the staff was incredible. They were available for anything we needed. The venue itself is incredible- the views are absolutely gorgeous and people could not stop talking about how incredible the space was. The weather was perfect in mid-September and they were able to open the sliding doors of the reception space which added another layer of gorgeous views and fresh air that people are still talking about a month later!

I’m really at a loss on how to review Bluff Mountain Inn. The property is BEAUTIFUL! There’s so much opportunity with the bistro, chapel, and barn. Our wedding was dreamy and everything I wanted. The downfall here was they switched management between the time of booking and to the wedding. When touring we met the lady that handled weddings and I was confident. Then I learned that she left when new management came. With new management, I suggest staying on top of them for your needs. I came to the venue a few days early and things were not kept up. They need to invest in maintaining the property. Weed control and cleaning the spaces. The amount of dirt and cleaning we had to do was not ideal. If you want to walk into space and not have to worry about that - i don’t know if this is your venue. However, they did do things to correct the issues I had, but I feel I shouldn’t have had to even do that. Like I said we had a beautiful day, so in the grand scheme it was great. I would request a tour and have serious conversations with them before booking.

If I could give The Trillium Venue more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. I always dreamed of getting married at a mountain venue, and from the moment I found The Trillium, I knew it was the one. It was actually the only venue we looked at—we booked site unseen and didn’t even visit until a couple months later, but somehow we just knew. From start to finish, Sydney and the entire team were incredible. Everyone was so friendly, responsive, and helpful every step of the way. They answered all of my questions, provided amazing vendor recommendations, and had beautiful rental options that made planning so much easier. The cabins right across from the venue were perfect and made everything so convenient for us and our guests. The getting-ready spaces were gorgeous, spacious, and such a fun place to spend the morning getting ready. The entire property is stunning and so well-maintained. All night long, our guests kept commenting on how beautiful the venue was and saying it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. Choosing The Trillium was one of the best decisions we made, and I wish we could relive that day there all over again. Highly recommend to any couple dreaming of a beautiful mountain wedding.

The folks at Cardinals Nest were absolutely amazing! They let us stop by a few times to check out the venue and walked around with us to show all of the fixes they were doing. They were genuinely so sweet and welcoming and it was great to have their experienced input on how we should decorate and arrange the space. We had some bad weather the morning of so we unfortunately had the walls of the tent down but they actually opened it up for me once the rain passed because they knew I wanted to! Even with the rain the venue managed wonderfully with a pavilion for the ceremony and the tent for the reception.

Awarded Best of Zola
The new owners, Tom & Laura, went above and beyond to make our weekend just what we had dreamed of. Their preferred vendor list made it easy for our planner to pull together just what we envisioned. The property is absolutely beautiful with views in every direction. Our special guests were able to stay on-site. There are plenty of rooms and cabins so that everyone could be comfortable and not have to travel. They have a lodge building with all en-suites a library & family room with fireplace and mountain views (every room has a balcony), bungalows with mountain views and cabins with jacuzzis and fireplaces in every cabin. So something for everyone. They arranged excursions for our guests to the Vineyard next door for live music and to the zipline & funpark closeby. There is a spa onsite if anyone would like massages, etc. They also have hiking trails and waterfalls on property as well as a secret waterfall that only guests know about.

I live within 50 miles of the top venues of my state an could've easily chosen to get married there and I'm sure have a beautiful wedding as I know the staff personally and they do a great job. I instead chose a destination wedding with my family and friends at Whitestone Inn because they're just the best. Having a beautiful venue that didn't need tons of decor and delicious food that people would genuinely enjoy were very important to me. People still talk about the food over a year later and it's all thanks to the in-house catering. Having multiple ceremony options was also important because I know things can happen. We had a member in our party who needed wheelchair accessibility and that was no issue whatsoever. The staff was so attentive and went above and beyond to help us make our day fun and memorable!
