I am a local wedding planner who has been in the business for about 10 years. It has been a joy to watch Highland's event space come into the event world and take it by storm! We've been working with this venue since they opened and it's been seamless. It represents Asheville at it's best. Beer and views what more can you ask for?! Their team cares about their clients and their vendors and it shows. We ADORE working at this venue:)
Best experience!!

I cannot recommend Highland Brewing enough! Every space is so gorgeous and customizable. We used all the spaces available and we loved being able to move our guests from space to space throughout the night . The rooftop has gorgeous mountain views and the barrel room was a dream for me with plants hanging from the ceiling! The staff was SO welcoming from the beginning and made the experience so easy. We felt so at ease working with them. Great communication, super helpful and willing to work with our ideas and make them happen! Thank you Highland for going above and beyond to make our day so magical!! We can’t wait to come back and visit!

My husband and I got married here on April 21, 2023 and we truly couldn't have picked a better venue for our wedding and rehearsal dinner the night before. The staff, the alcohol, the rooftop for the ceremony, the barrel room and main reception room were all just incredible and everything went so seamlessly! We still have friends mentioning that it was the most fun wedding they have ever attended and we feel the same way! Also, the entire Highland team worked so easily with all of our vendors, it made it so nice for me on the day of to know that everything was taken care of. Plus, the beer and wine at Highland were a hit and everybody loved getting to try all of the craft beers. Can't recommend them enough and I wish I could do it all over just to relive that day in such a beautiful space.
