“Molly's Lakeside by Wedgewood Weddings was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was transparent, personable, and hardworking, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work and venue was truly exceptional - the scenery was breathtakingly beautiful, with a lush green landscape and open spaces that created the perfect backdrop for our special day. Hannah, our coordinator, was a gem to work with. You could tell she has a real passion for what she does, and her great customer service and ability to be personable won us over, even when we were initially hesitant. She broke everything down for us in a way that was easy to understand, and painted a clear picture of what the renovations would look like. If it weren't for us just wanting to get a better head count, we definitely would have signed everything the same day! We feel so grateful to have worked with Molly's Lakeside and look forward to working with them again soon.”

The cows are so cute and friendly, and the optional bridal suite is a must. It’s cute, fully stocked with everything you need, and conveniently right on the property. Diane is the best to work with - she always got back to us right away, and was always super friendly and helpful.

“Truly the most beautiful venue and so much care goes into each thing they do! From the very start, everything was perfect! The food is absolutely amazing, all of our guests have been talking about it; neither one of us even like cake, but we loved theirs!! The entire property is gorgeous and meticulously cared for, they even grow ingredients there for the freshest best tasting meals. Communication was fantastic, they were on top of everything, and executed it extremely well. The entire team was so kind, helpful and professional but still so fun to have around! Haley and Kate singlehandedly saved the ceremony when we realized halfway through the rings never made it out of the house, they were already on it and running them down for us! We cannot say enough how much we adored everyone there and how just wonderful everything was! We highly recommend them!”

His calm presence on the wedding day allowed the couple, their families, and all of the vendors to truly enjoy the moment.

“If I were to tell you my true feelings about Twisty Maple and event manager Jessie, you would probably think I'm obsessed and I would probably run out of characters. So read this review with the idea that I'm working on 50% capacity here. Twisty Maple was absolutely, positively the best venue my partner and I could have picked to host our family and friends for a wedding ceremony and celebration. It felt like a home away from home, not only because my family set up shop and stayed in the house for a week leading up to our wedding; but also because of the warmth and care that guests can feel built into every inch of the place. My partner and I chose Twisty as our venue as soon as we had a virtual call and tour with Jessie, before we had even seen the space in person. We we so immediately at ease with Jessie, who already felt like a family friend, and could tell that she cared deeply about the home and property. Jesse and the Twisty team genuinely want to share the space with folks, evidenced by a willingness to host atypical activities (I was at one point convinced I wanted an on-site smoker for a whole hog and Jessie was totally game) and offering of a garageful of event decor at no cost (including signage, bud vases, candle holders, baskets, barrels, and SO much more). Leading up to the big day, Jessie graciously offered her contact information to my and my partner's moms for any logistical questions related to the home rental, which helped enormously in saving time and stress. We were greeted by a welcome sign with the names of family members staying at the home and a thoughtful gift basket with goodies for my partner and I, including keepsake Twisty Maple mugs which are adorable. It was so great to have the space leading up to our event for family time and DIY-ing and resting. I am so grateful to Jessie for sharing Twisty Maple with my family and friends. The space will forever hold such a special space in my heart and I hope you, dear reader, have the opportunity to make unforgettable memories here too.”

“It has taken me way too long for me to write this review, especially considering the fact that I think about Mountain Brook Vineyard every single day. (I’m not kidding, not a day goes by where I don’t think about Rebecca, the team, and the wine!) My husband and I visited 22 venues in North Carolina alone (we called it a “Holy Matrimony Mega Tour”) As a sommelier, choosing a place that has stand-out wines and a local terroir was essential for me. Dave Coventry is absolutely slaying—no kidding, this is some of the best wine that the East Coast has to offer. Rebecca runs a very tight ship and is not messing around when it comes to planning what many consider to be the best day of their lives (and our wedding was absolutely the best day of our lives, thanks to Rebecca). She went above and beyond in her communication, collaboration, and incorporating romantic personal touches into everything she could. For example, she applied our wedding emblem into our wine tasting cards, which was such a lovely surprise. She got to know our family and friends by name (and remembered their favorite wines!) Everything was so special and well-thought out. Our wedding would not have been anything close to as iconic as it was without Mountainbrook Vineyard. Every time we gather with people who attended, we hear something along the lines of “your wedding was the best wedding I have EVER been to!!” We have to agree Choosing to have our wedding at Mountainbrook was truly one of the best choices my husband and I have ever made. It marked the beginning of the countless choices we will make as a married couple, and seriously gave us a feeling of confidence and assuredness—a few of the many unforeseen blessings that Mountainbrook bestowed on us and our relationship. To all future couples considering celebrating your love at Mountainbrook: congratulations, you have stumbled upon one of the most spectacular hidden gems that Western NC has to offer! If you are dreaming of getting married at a venue that is unique, beautiful, and sees and honors you for who you are, look no further, this is the place for you! Now go meet Rebecca and taste their wines!!”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Corrine and the Curations team as a pastry chef, and what stands out to me is how personally Corrine is involved in the events she creates. She pays attention to the little details that can easily get overlooked, and she’s thoughtful about how all of the different elements of an event come together. From my perspective as a vendor, Corrine is also great at communication and coordination. When I’m providing desserts, I appreciate knowing that she has thought through where and when they’ll be served, how they’ll be presented, and how that fits into the overall flow of the event. It makes collaborating with her easy and allows me to focus on doing my part well. I’ve really enjoyed being part of the events she creates. Corrine genuinely cares about the couples she works with, and that comes through in the way she approaches every detail. I’m always happy when I get the opportunity to work with Curations.”

Our reception was able to play its own music, from speakers we brought, and not feel impacted from the live music going on for the rest of the patrons. Our event did not co-mingle too much with the general public; however there was a couple people that drifted in and we politely asked them to leave. As stated above, our overall day of was all we could have wanted and more. The days leading up to our reception were very stressful due to renovations that weren't quite ready for our event. Since we were the first party in this space, we had to bare the growing pains, which Trailside tried to accommodate for as much as possible. I believe since we were the "test" party, this team will grow from the experience. All in all, our reception day was all we could have wanted and more, so when it came down to the wire, the team delivered.”

“Something Blue Mountain Venue was our first and only choice for our wedding venue. The views are breathtaking and it is like nature herself decided to give the perfect frame for every photo. The owner Lisa is wonderful and really makes it incredibly easy to show up and enjoy! She gave the best recommendations for vendors. Recent renovations even made a fully enclosed bar area perfect for sipping and staying warm in the winter. We had 35 people and it was the perfect size even though 35 was the maximum number of guests. Overall, not a chance in a million years I would prefer any other venue. Highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend. Thanks Lisa!”

“We got married at Bent Creek Lodge on 8/6/22 and rented out the whole lodge and the Luhn house for ourselves and our guests for the weekend. It was extra special that we were able to get married here, because we actually stayed here the weekend we got engaged as well! It meant so much that we were able to return and share the experience with our loved ones. I am not exaggerating when I say that it was one of the most magical weekends of our lives, and it would not have been possible without Randy, Linda, and the rest of the amazing Bent Creek Lodge crew! The all-inclusive wedding package made it so insanely easy for us to have a top-tier wedding with minimal fuss and headaches on our part. We had our venue, lodging for all of our guests, officiant, catering, cake, beer and wine, and flowers all in a one-stop shop which made everything so much easier. The only things we chose to coordinate with outside vendors was the photography, DJ, and hair and makeup. Randy and his crew handled everything else, and they did an excellent job on all of it. All of the food was incredible, and they went above and beyond to accommodate our guests with special dietary needs. The flowers and cake were beautiful, and Randy did a wonderful job officiating our ceremony. Just about every single guest came up to us at least once during the weekend to gush about what an amazing time they were having, and several approached us afterwards to tell us it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. The entire crew really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and like family. Bent Creek Lodge will always have an extra special place in our hearts, and we couldn't be more grateful.”

“If you're looking for a breathtaking wedding venue with minimal decision-making, Haiku is for you. My partner and I didn't want a wedding venue that felt too "stuffy" – we wanted to be surrounded by greenery, we wanted the wedding to feel intimate, and we wanted to work with good, kindhearted people. Haiku is all of those things! After our venue tour, I knew Haiku was where we wanted to get married. The space is such a unique and beautiful gem in Asheville, and they make the wedding planning process as easy as possible! Because the space is already so lovely, we barely had to get any additional decor to make it look beautiful. And the people who work at Haiku are amazing! Jennifer was awesome during our venue tour, and she is a visionary when it comes to bringing a wedding to life! The day before the wedding, we had a set of drapes missing from the arbor decor we brought, but the Haiku team took full creative control and the end result was beautiful! Our day-of-coordinator, Kisha, was also amazing! She was responsive, positive, and our BIGGEST hype woman. There was no problem too big or too small for her to handle. Her main priority was making sure we had an amazing, stress-free wedding day – and we did because of her & the rest of the Haiku team!”

“Robin & the team at Hi-Wire were such an incredible asset to our wedding weekend. They hosted our "Rehearsal Dinner/Welcome Party" which was a trivia night that we hosted. The bartenders went above and beyond with the slideshow clicking duty while working the bar! They had all required electornic capabilities for our set up. We had some delay with the projector, but it was promptly fixed during the meet and greet portion of our night. The venue is spacious with plenty of room for our 70 guests. The photobooth was such a fun additional! The bar had plenty of options, including options other than Hi-Wire beers. The bathrooms were clean with plenty of space. We were able to snag some photos over in the tasting room/cannery and those turned out to be some of my absolute favorite from the weekend. The bright colors of all the cans made for such a fun backdrop. We absolutely loved working with everyone at the Event Space!”
