Dream Venue in the Smokies
I absolutely love photographing weddings at the cardinals nest! It's a stunning venue with so many great photo backdrops! The pavilion is perfect even if it's a rainy day! The staff always goes above and beyond!
Love working with the Cardinals Nest!
I’ve officiated several weddings at the Cardinals Nest and working with them is a pleasure! They provided my couples seamless service, and a beautiful, welcoming space to be married.
Amazing venue
The venue is just absolutely amazing and perfect in so many ways! The beautiful grounds from the California red wood ceremony spot to .. the green areas, the reception area to the fire pit and cabins is just the perfect location to say I do! I would recommend the venue to anyone!
