“We booked Rocky Top Falls for our wedding on 11/15 and it was THE venue just for us. RTF is such a magical location; I truly couldn’t have imagined getting married anywhere else. The property views are breathtaking! We were able to stay for a long weekend and evening accommodated our wedding party at the house with us. It was perfect getting to have our closest friends on site with us, as well as not having to travel anywhere for the actual ceremony and reception. RTF had everything we needed, and more! The home itself was so clean, bright, cozy, and extremely spacious. The hot tub was a nice added touch for unwinding after the chaos of the wedding. We also loved the fire pits for cooking s’mores! The area for the ceremony was so dreamy and comfortably fit our 45 guests. The skylight room was PERFECT for our reception. We had plenty of room for our tables and food inside, and we made the patio/driveway be our dance floor; we LOVED dancing outside under the stars and string lights. The layout was truly perfect. Miguel even purchased patio heaters for us to rent since I was so worried about the weather being chilly. Surprisingly enough, we had an oddly warm day and evening, so didn’t even need them; it provided peace of mind knowing they were available though! Miguel and Rachel, the owners, are the sweetest couple and so easy to work with. They were beyond accommodating to us and our requests throughout planning our wedding. If you are looking for a venue to book, look no further and book NOW! This is truly such an incredible venue that will hold a special place in our hearts for the rest of our lives!”

“From our first conversation with Kourtney, we knew C&C by the Lake was going to be our venue. She was responsive and easy to work with throughout the entire planning process, which made everything feel less stressful. The space itself is absolutely gorgeous—we barely needed any decorations because the venue already had so much natural beauty. On our wedding day, Connie was incredible and handled every detail without us having to ask. She jumped in whenever we needed something and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We honestly didn't worry about a thing, and that peace of mind made our day so much better. C&C by the Lake is worth every penny and we can't recommend them enough!”
