With our wedding weekend located in Asheville, North Carolina, we are closely monitoring the status and well-being of our vendors. At this time, Downtown Asheville is open and is welcoming visitors! We are excited to take part in helping bring tourism back to our favorite city! We will continue to be in contact with our coordinators and update our guests with changes if necessary. Please be aware that Hurricane Helene significantly impacted Biltmore Village. The Biltmore House IS open for tours, but the surrounding shops may not be.

Please note that Wicked Weed has several locations. The reception will take place at the Wicked Weed Funkatorium in the Barrel Room. If you look this location up online, it will state they are closed. We promise we have been in touch with our vendors and Downtown Asheville is open and accepting visitors! The Wicked Weed Funkatorium is closed, temporarily, to the public, but is, in fact, open for private events.
We will have a few children that are immediate family joining us. Because of the nature of a brewery setting, this location is not best suited for children. Your invitation will state how many seats have been reserved for your family. We hope you’re able to spend this weekend away with us and understand the goal was to keep the reception small and intimate.
The reception will be Cocktail Attire with a hint of casual. Most guests will wear cocktail dresses, jumpsuits, and slacks. Suits are welcome but not required! The bride and groom will be wearing sneakers so they can dance the whole night with you! Feel free to do the same. Please note, the Reception will take place inside, at the Barrel Room of Wicked Weed Funkatorium. Guests will have access to the outdoor garden area with heaters. You might walk a bit, hopefully dance a lot, and we want you to be comfortable all night!
The Wicked Weed Funkatorium is located in downtown Asheville where parking is limited. The “Damn Good Beer Bus” is our shuttle service. Their buses are clearly marked and you cannot miss them! They *may* have to park across the street from the hotel. Just look for the blue and yellow bus! It will be a SHORT walk to them! The shuttle will start transporting guests from The AC Hotel to the Wicked Weed Funkatorium at 5:30pm. The shuttle will run until 10 pm from the Wicked Weed Funkatorium to the AC hotel. If you are staying elsewhere, please prepare to Uber or familiarize yourself with parking garages around Wicked Weed Funkatorium. If you choose to drive, please do so responsibly.
