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! The space is intimate, serene, and absolutely breathtaking. We LOVED the Magnolia and I would recommend it to anyone in a heart beat! I cannot say enough amazing things about it!!!

Everyone is so communicative, accommodating, and professional! They do multiple check-ins and keep the space clean! Even on my wedding day, we noticed that they would tidy up our bridal suites throughout the day! The biggest compliment I can give is for the view! Absolutely breathtaking!! Our guests were blown away and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding day!

Still dreaming of our perfect wedding day, all made possible with the help of Appalachian Wedding Company! After being engaged in the summer of 2023, I was overwhelmed at the high dollar price tag attached with many small wedding venues in the East Tennessee area. After a quick call with Sarah, I knew that Appalachian Wedding Company would be the right fit for our big day. We went to take a tour of the "Peaks and Promises" venue with Taylor, which sealed the deal for us. The venue was a perfect location in Gatlinburg, tucked away without all the bustle of the busy traffic of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. The spectacular view was worth a million dollars and I cannot recommend it enough as the background for a wedding in the Great Smoky Mountains. Throughout the wedding planning process, Sarah and Taylor were so accommodating and always available to answer any questions I had. They truly were there every step of the way to make my wedding day vision a real life fairy tale! Taylor did a tremendous job officiating the ceremony. We could not have asked for better. Highly recommend adding on the video package. I am so thankful we have it to look back on our special day for years to come. 10/10 recommend Appalachian Wedding Company for a beautiful wedding in the GSM!
