“Fur the Moment was a wonderful addition to our wedding day and honeymoon. Their communication throughout the planning process was frequent and effective, putting our minds at ease.

“We recently hosted our send-off brunch at Sylva Social, and we couldn’t have picked a better location to wrap up our wedding weekend. Most of our guests stayed in Sylva, so having a beautiful downtown location that was easy for everyone to get to the morning after our wedding was perfect. The team was professional and made the entire process seamless. Sylva Social is such a beautiful space, and we loved having the flexibility to make it our own. We were able to bring in our own decor while also incorporating some of their in-house pieces, which made the space feel personal and perfectly suited to our brunch. And the food was amazing! The coffee from Blue Ridge Bootleg was incredible, and our guests absolutely raved about the breakfast sandwiches. Even our vegan guests said it was some of the best-seasoned tofu they’ve ever had. The chef even went the extra mile and carved our initials with a heart into a watermelon that served as the fruit bowl. Such a thoughtful and special touch! We couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. Sylva Social was the perfect place to gather with our family and friends one last time and wrap up an unforgettable wedding weekend. We are so grateful to the entire team for helping make it so special!”

“Where do I even begin? I cannot express how magical Ali and Kellsie were with my hair and makeup on my wedding day. AnaRie Beauty is an exceptionally professional, thoughtful, and highly talented team—this review comes straight from the heart. I have very particular preferences when it comes to hair and makeup, and the entire experience with AnaRie Beauty was truly next level. Both Ali and Kellsie took the time to understand my vision, carefully studied the reference photos I provided, and perfected the look during my trial run—which, by the way, I highly recommend all brides do! They were incredibly patient, kind, and responsive to every email, making the entire process seamless. They also made me feel so comfortable giving feedback! On my wedding day, they were not only professional but also so warm and fun that I felt like they were longtime friends. And as if the trial run wasn’t already amazing, the final look on my wedding day was even better! My hair was beautifully intricate, and when I saw my makeup, I was genuinely in awe. My vision had come to life in a way I had never experienced before—I truly felt so beautiful. I am beyond thrilled with AnaRie Beauty. They are worth every single penny! I will recommend them to any bride. This team delivers perfection.”

  • Offer

I like taking photos almost as much as I *love* connecting with people. I've been in this industry long enough to navigate any wedding day curveball with ease and a laugh, but not so long that I've grown tired or disillusioned with the beauty of weddings. I love love, I love people, I love working hard for them, and I really love film.

“I've second-shot weddings with Sally for years now, and I can tell you exactly what your day looks like with her behind the camera: calm, organized, and genuinely fun. She's the photographer who has your timeline memorized, your family wrangled with a smile, and your grandma laughing in candids you didn't even know were happening. Then the gallery lands and you're hit eith all the beauty and emotions from that day all over again.. but x10, because now you're seeing it through hers. As someone who does this work myself, I notice things most people don't - her eye, her ethic, the way couples light up around her. I'd trust her with my own wedding in a heartbeat.”

“Katie was such an amazing person to work with from the very first phone call to our last email after my wedding!! I got engaged in February of 2023 and reached out to Katie the following month. My husband and I decided to elope but we still wanted to have a big celebration with all our favorite people. The idea of splitting up our wedding into two events made me very stressed and anxious. I wasn't positive on how we could even achieve this and if it was just a crazy idea. My first phone call with Katie I expressed my concern and she immediately reassured me that this idea was possible. After our first call ended I let out the biggest sigh of relief and told my husband that I was so thankful that I reached out to her!! Katie made me feel confident in what we wanted for our wedding and I am so thankful for that. We did what we wanted and not what other people thought we should've done because Katie encouraged and supported us from the very start!! Our wedding day was so special to us and I can not thank her enough for that! We worked with Katie on partial planning. I am so thankful to have her for the first two months of planning. She truly kept me on track and informed me the whole time, I never felt like I was forgetting something or taking too much on at once. When April of 2024 hit I had zero stress because I knew that I would have Katies help that whole month. She asked questions that I would never have thought of, helped me make final decisions and was a calming person to go to during my wedding month. Our elopement was beyond perfect and our reception space was STUNNING thanks to Katie! She even mailed our marriage license for us! Katie was very responsive and honest. When I sent her inspo she let me know what we could do to achieve my goal but in our budget. She is also super sweet and very cool! I wish I could throw more events just to have her help me again. Katie at Keystone Event Coordinating was the perfect wedding planner for us and I can not think of a better person to help plan your most special day with!! Email Katie now, I promise you will thank yourself later!!”

“My wife and I got married at Nantahala Weddings in September 2023, and we honestly can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the moment we arrived, the setting took our breath away—Lake Nantahala and the mountains surrounding it provided the perfect, peaceful backdrop for our day. The venue itself is magical. We used the Chapel in the Sky for our ceremony, and it felt like something out of a dream. The entire property is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully designed to create an unforgettable experience, not just for us as the couple, but for our guests as well. The team behind the venue made everything run smoothly and truly cared about making our day special. Every detail felt personalized and intentional. We also want to give a special shout-out to our caterer, Tracey, who stepped in later in the planning process and delivered an outstanding meal. Literally every guest raved about the food, especially the appetizers and bisque, and she even went out of her way to prepare a special late-night meal for a child in our family who wasn’t feeling well. That kind of thoughtfulness speaks volumes. Looking back, we feel incredibly lucky that we found this place. It’s not just a venue—it’s a destination that brings people together in the most beautiful way. We’ll forever be grateful we got to start our married life in such an amazing place.”

“I chose not to have a videographer for my wedding, and had it covered only by photography. I sit here now, barely two weeks out from my wedding, already enjoying my entire wedding photo gallery from these amazing photographers that captured every detail as if they were using video recorders instead! Not only did they guarentee quick turn around on my photos (I think their words were "before you're back from your honeymoon") but the quality of work speaks for itself in the photos. They were such an joy to work with- often splitting up to cover ground and their easy banter with each other puts you right at ease when they're pointing those big cameras at you.

“From the moment we started working with Emma at Castle Ladyhawke, we were impressed by their quick, efficient, and warm communication style. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with an authentic, charming feeling that made our wedding day feel truly special. The food was fantastic and despite complications it was a beautiful and magical day. While our initial coordinator, Emma, was great to work with over the 8 months leading up to the wedding, we were disappointed to learn upon arrival that she would not be there on the day. Her replacement, Kelsie, arrived late, did not have our updated documents, failed to communicate with the vendors that there was a space for them on the third floor, and seemed to lack the positive energy and personal responsibility we had come to expect. There were also a few small hiccups, like the arch being set up incorrectly initially. But overall, we had a wonderful, memorable day for us and our guests.”

  • Starts at $1,000

I’m Tracie Heidt, a boutique wedding florist based in Cashiers, NC — and I design from your story, not a template. Every RetroWhims design begins with listening. Before I ever choose a flower, I start with your vision, your color palette, and the feeling you want your day to hold. What emerges is something whimsical, personal, and rooted in the mountains of Western North Carolina.

“I loved working with RetroWhims. I had a really specific vibe that I was going for and she did a great job matching it. There were even a few flowers that were a must for me that weren’t attainable fresh, so she blended in faux absolutely seamlessly. We had a Friday the 13th outdoor wedding with Celtic vibes. Very dark fantasy romance. It’s definitely not the average theme, so I was really picky about who I worked with. She absolutely nailed it AND kept it within my budget.”

“Wagon Master Ranch was absolutely amazing! We had our ceremony outside down by the pond and it was perfect , the twinkle lights and the pond fountain were such a sweet additional touch to the area ! My favorite part of the ceremony area was the handcrafted door just before I walked down the aisle ! The reception building turned out absolutely beautiful with all the decor and different sets of lighting options we had ! The bella room for the bride was gorgeous ! Such a great place to get ready in , my wedding party and I really enjoyed ourselves in such a comfortable area . Our experience at the venue was just perfect for our big day !

“My husband and I settled on our happy place, Highlands, NC as the perfect location to get married. We stumbled upon Flat Mountain Farm & immediately fell in love with the property. Our ceremony was small & included all of our closest friends and family members. No matter what season you decide to get married, this property will be STUNNING. The owners, Margaret and Chris, have a beautiful story and unique professional background. Margaret has thought of absolutely everything to deliver a magical experience. There is so much charm on every foot of the property- if you're looking for a destination wedding that allows you to stay ON SITE, this is IT! Each place to stay (The Wren, The Kingfisher, The Peregrine) have the most thoughtful touches & elevated views. The design of each space is detailed, classy, & has tons of personality. Margaret allows her guests to "personalize" their wedding experience so that each wedding or event planned is truly one of a kind. Celebrate outside by the pond, inside the restored barn, or by a waterfall! The versatility of the property makes planning an event so much more memorable! We loved our experience & our friends have not stopped talking about it. Don't even get us started on the sunset photo opportunities... your pictures will be absolutely breathtaking!”

Floressence is a floristry studio based in western North Carolina that specializes in floral design for weddings, rehearsal dinners and special occasions. Our work brings us to the most elegant and inspiring venues in North Carolina and beyond. At Floressence, we create from a deep sense of place. The mountains of western North Carolina and its lush biodiversity supply our designers with a surplus of inspiration and seasonal touches, abundance we use to conjure your dream aesthetic. Our deeply personal approach paired with our talented team of designers and exquisite flowers conspire to create your most unforgettable moment.

“If you want a stunning, tailored, and top tier florist- Fleuressence is for you. We were so incredibly lucky to work with Fleuressence, specifically Tori, for our June 5 & 6 rehearsal dinner and wedding day. We had a few kinds of flowers in mind and a loose vision, but Tori was able to read between the lines, turn our ideas into a reality, and present the most stunning floral arrangements for our rehearsal dinner and wedding day. The theme for the rehearsal was bright, colorful, orange, and fun- the flowers were just that. I couldn’t have asked for what they delivered even if I tried- their expertise and knowledge of what makes a beautiful arrangement is next level. For our wedding day the flowers looked like there were straight out of a magazine. My bridal bouquet was all white, yet whimsical, light, and refined (a balance that Fleuressence achieved seamlessly). My bridesmaids carried yellow and white bouquets, equally whimsical and classic. I received compliments throughout the entire night on just how beautiful and unique, yet also timeliness, our florals were. And for the star of the show- Tori suggested a cascading floral arrangement on the circle bar- and wow, it was perfect. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Finally, both days were also upwards of 90 degrees and fully outdoors- something that usually doesn’t bode well for wax candles and delicate florals. However, not a single candle was melting in the heat and every flower held up. Thank you Fleuressence and thank you, especially, to Tori! Our day was that much more memorable because of you!”
