Ramble Creek Events was an absolutely amazing venue to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was outstanding - they responded to us either the same day or by the next, and the owners and staff were such wonderful people to work with. The quality of their work and the value they provided was incredible. The venue itself was beautiful and gorgeous, and they contributed so much to making our special day perfect. They helped me immensely throughout the wedding planning process, taking care of so many details so I didn't have to stress.

The Trillium is even more beautiful than the pictures! We booked this venue over a year from our wedding without seeing it in person just based on the reviews and our virtual tour. They host open houses for couples that have booked and we got to experience the magic in February for our November wedding at this open house that allowed us to explore the space and see where we would get married! 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!

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!

We loved having our big day at Weaver House. We used their full planning services and their catering. Alexandra is very easy to work with and is that calming presence on your wedding day! The venue itself if beautiful - we picked it partly because of the gardens outside since we love the outdoors and love spending time at our local arboretum. The catering was amazing as well - Chef Joey and Chef Brit take time to learn what you and your partner like and can put those spins on dishes you choose. The value is also great for the Western North Carolina area. We are so glad we kept our wedding in WNC after Helene and could support a wonderful space that truly wanted our day to be what we envisioned.
