Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- With acres of pastoral meadows, oaks, and rolling hills, this historic farm feels ages away from modern life—though it's only a short twelve-minute drive from Asheville. It's a truly magical place to celebrate surrounded by your nearest and dearest... and best of all, you can relax in the confidence that your guests will be treated with care and warmth, your details will be thoughtfully handled, and your needs will be met from start to finish. What better way to begin your next chapter?
- Say "I do" with the distant mountains as your romantic backdrop, celebrate in the classic red barn, or dance beneath the spacious covered pavilion, where the fresh air will invigorate you. Flexible packages can accommodate all wedding visions, from an intimate microwedding to a weekend-long retreat with cozy on-site lodgings for 11+ in the modern farmhouse (you can even encourage your nature-loving friends to pitch their tents and sleep over on-site!)
- It's kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and the welcoming vibe will make you feel like family... which makes sense, since it's family-owned and -managed! They are dedicated to making your wedding truly magical, and it shows: you'll always have access to a staff member for any questions leading up to the day, and the property's total exclusivity means you'll never feel like you're anything less than their full focus as the celebration unfolds.
