At Abe One DJ’s, we are passionate about providing the perfect musical backdrop for your special events. Whether it’s a wedding, private party, corporate event, or any other important gathering, our team of enthusiastic DJ’s will play the music you love and your guests will want to hear. With over four decades of experience, you can rest assured that we have the knowledge and expertise to handle any type of event, big or small. And because we have a team of DJ’s on hand, you never have to worry about a backup plan. We’ve got you covered!

WOW... just WOW. I hired Abe One DJ's for my wedding, and he crafted an incredible entertainment experience that was simply the best I've ever encountered!! Understanding the significance of having a great DJ for my big day, I interviewed multiple candidates, ultimately choosing Abe One DJ's because he truly grasped my vision and exuded the confidence needed to bring it to life... And he definitely delivered!! My wedding had an incredibly diverse crowd, and he skillfully catered to everyone's tastes. Throughout and after the event, guests praised his ability to read the room, sustain the energy, and creatively transition between songs, keeping everyone dancing the entire time! At one point, over 50 guests (including grandparents) were out on the dance floor swag surfing together—a core memory that I replay in my mind and on video since he also captured this fantastic moment for us!! Additionally, he was an excellent MC, engaging our guests during downtime with entertaining anecdotes. He even joined us on the dance floor to teach us new line dances. His preparedness was impressive; for instance, I had pre-requested him to announce my college alumni for recognition but forgot to request our fight song. When I approached him in the moment and asked if he could play it, he had it downloaded and ready to go without missing a beat!! Lastly, I genuinely appreciate the platform he uses to orchestrate the entertainment experience for the day. It’s incredibly user-friendly and allows you to upload songs straight from your own Spotify playlists. I could not be more thankful for him sharing his talents and playing such a vital role in creating a day we'll always remember. Thank you so much, Abe One DJ's!

My partner and I worked really hard to bring together wedding vendors that fit with our intentions for a personal and intimate wedding. Leah was an absolute perfect fit!! Relaxed, friendly, and kind, Leah brought much needed peacefulness to the day and captured beautiful moments that I will cherish forever. I knew I wanted documentary-style photographer because I didn't want to spend my wedding day shuffling around for the perfect shot. I wanted someone to be a fly on the wall, taking photos that represented the true emotion and energy of the ceremony and celebration. When we met with Leah, she was genuinely interested in getting to know Sam and I as a couple and individually. We felt like we were collaborators, not just clients. When WNC was affected by Helene, Leah was the only vendor we were able to communicate with and so she became our boots-on-the-ground, giving us information and helping us to make the decision to postpone our wedding a year. 364 days later, Leah arrived onsite and immediately brought a calming energy: sweeping through family photos, knowing there was a bit of tension; snapping a quick photo and then flitting away for my partner and I to have some alone time; and deftly navigating the many folks that approached her for group photos during the reception. Our photos were delivered via email on Christmas Eve, perfect timing to peruse through with visiting family. The images were everything I wanted and more. Leah's talent is astounding and I'm so glad that she was part of our day.

Based in Western North Carolina we have extensive knowledge and experience in the area. Our team has long-standing relationships with local vendors, venues, breweries, restaurants, and attractions. We can help you find the perfect vendor team to plan an unforgettable event that fits your budget and personal style.

If you're reading this and trying to decide on bar services or staffing for your event, STOP LOOKING! THIS IS THE ONE! Heidi and Tristen are the most wonderful, creative, and kind people and they make delicious drinks to boot! After finding Black Orchid on our wedding planner's vendor shortlist, I am so, so happy we chose Black Orchid for our wedding. Even before we signed a contract, Heidi was so helpful in sharing experience and industry knowledge - my partner has worked in the restaurant industry and has been an amateur cocktail connoisseur since COVID times, and he felt so comfortable in their first meeting that we booked them immediately. Heidi was enthusiastic about planning our signature cocktails alongside us - even making a black walnut syrup from her own tree to use in our old-fashioned AND juicing carrots for my gin cocktail!! Helene hit a month before our scheduled wedding date, and (second to our venue - s/o Twisty Maple!!) Black Orchid was the vendor we knew we couldn't move forward without. Luckily, after communication was re-established, Heidi was flexible and we worked with her to reschedule. Once our second date got closer, my partner and I visited WNC to get back into the wedding spirit and Heidi and Tristen *came to our AirBnB* to sample our signature cocktails. They became fast friends and we chatted for hours! On our wedding day, it felt so special to have both Tristen and Heidi (as well as their staff) working our event. Professional and poised, they brought the perfect calm energy that we wanted to our small and personal celebration. I highly recommend reaching out to Black Orchid for your event. You won't regret it. Tell them Jade and Sam sent ya!

Hey there! We are a team of event planners located right in the middle of the Great Smoky Mountains. We are driven by our desire to create celebrations uniquely personal to your love stories. Our teams also provide videography and custom event stationary. Check out our website for more details!

I planned a destination wedding in Tennessee and it would not have been possible (no exaggeration) without Whitney and her team at Emerald Cut Events! Unfortunately, our selected venue did not effectively communicate with me before or during the wedding but I was so grateful to have someone on my side. Whitney went above and beyond to execute everything we had planned and make our day special. Even in the pouring rain, Emerald Cut Events impressed me, my husband, and our families with their dedication and determination. When your wedding coordinator is willing to hijack a golf cart for you because your venue left you stranded minutes before the ceremony, you know you chose the right person! If you are looking for a team that cares about your special day and is hard working and reliable, pick Emerald Cut Events. Choose them, you will love them!

Chet was our bartender at my sister’s wedding. I can not even start to say how amazing he was. He was personable and funny. He was like a bartender from Cheers, like having one of your bestiess serve you a drink. ANyone would be lucky to have Chet serve them! Highly recommend Rocky Top Bartending!

We were so impressed with Stargazer Soirees from the very first interaction. Their communication was quick, efficient, and their team was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly throughout the entire planning process. When we arrived at their venue, we were blown away by the clean, quiet, serene, and peaceful atmosphere - it was truly stunning and the photos don't do the breathtaking fall foliage justice. Stargazer Soirees provided great ideas and suggestions that made our special day seamless, and we feel so lucky to have found this hidden gem for our wedding. We can't recommend them highly enough!

We had our wedding at Bells with a View Events and could not have been happier with our choice! Patricia, the host, was amazing to work with - her communication throughout the planning process was prompt, friendly, and made us feel like top priority. The venue itself is gorgeous, with clean and crisp event spaces that perfectly frame the stunning mountain views. Patricia allows couples to use her wide variety of decor, which gave us plenty of options to make the space our own. From the beautiful ceremony backdrop to the charming cabins, Bells with a View provided the most inviting and picture-perfect setting for our special day. Patricia went above and beyond as our host - her attention to detail and willingness to accommodate our needs made our wedding dreams come true. We wholeheartedly recommend Bells with a View to any couple looking for a breathtaking mountain venue with an equally incredible host!

Tremont Lodge & Resort was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. From the moment we first reached out, the team was attentive, quick to respond, and genuinely helpful in planning every detail.

Hi I’m Sav and I do things differently :) I offer digital, film, & super 8! I’m a full time lover girl and have been photographing love stories since ‘21! I’m a cinematic/documentary style photographer based in East Tennessee but I’m all over the globe documenting true love. I’m a wife, mom and lover of Jesus. I love people SO much it hurts and weddings are so special to me. So welcome!! I’m so glad you’re here :)

Savanah Marie Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the moment we booked her, Savanah was incredibly kind, professional, and personable. I also loved that she included an engagement session in the package we booked, which allowed for us to get to know her and see her photo style! Savanah and her husband kept us organized and on schedule throughout our wedding day, which was so calming and fun. Their work is fast, efficient, and has a nostalgic quality that we love. We were thrilled to get our sneak peeks back so quickly and can't wait to see the rest of the photos. Savanah and her husband were a joy to work with, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, caring photography team to capture their special day.

I am a floral preservationist! I take your bouquet AFTER you spend the evening with it. I give your flowers a second life and you get to give them a forever home. I specialize in frame and resin home decor and would love to help you save a part of your special day.

My husband surprised me for our five year anniversary with a tray and coasters from Golden Preserved. I’m not sure how Tia was able to take my five year old bouquet and make such a beautiful keepsake, but i cherish it. I kept my bouquet for years with no intention of preserving it, but i am so glad my husband took it to Golden Preserved. Now i have a beautiful tray and coasters to enjoy every day. Thank you Tia and Golden Preserved!!
