I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience at the Magnolia. From the start, Macey was so helpful and answered all of my questions quickly! The day of the event, the staff was incredible. They were available for anything we needed. The venue itself is incredible- the views are absolutely gorgeous and people could not stop talking about how incredible the space was. The weather was perfect in mid-September and they were able to open the sliding doors of the reception space which added another layer of gorgeous views and fresh air that people are still talking about a month later! The space is intimate, serene, and absolutely breathtaking. We LOVED the Magnolia and I would recommend it to anyone in a heart beat! I cannot say enough amazing things about it!!!

Wherever you choose, your wedding will be unique and just as you choose it to be. We don't charge an exorbitant amount for our venue because we want you to be able to afford to stay at The Vieux and have your wedding all rolled into one at a great price.

All of your guests can stay too in our 7 other cabins on the same 12 acres/mountain top.

My name is Kathy Ray and we hired this wedding planning company for our wedding. I never really give reviews but I just couldn't go without giving them the shout out that they deserve. They did everything for me and even things I thought I would have to do. The minister messed up my marriage licenses and they were able to jump in and handle this. The wifi went out during out ceremony and they jumped in with backup hotspot and everything was fixed. I think i have high anxiety about everything but they honestly babied me and made me feel so much relief lol!! I just didn;t hire a company but they all became my new besties!

She created a beautiful, personalized ceremony that truly reflected who we are as a couple. Beyond crafting an amazing ceremony, Jill was instrumental in making our wedding weekend run smoothly. She guided our rehearsal flawlessly, making sure everyone knew exactly what to do and helping everything come together without a hitch. On the wedding day, she was a calming presence.

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!

The folks at Cardinals Nest were absolutely amazing! They let us stop by a few times to check out the venue and walked around with us to show all of the fixes they were doing. They were genuinely so sweet and welcoming and it was great to have their experienced input on how we should decorate and arrange the space. We had some bad weather the morning of so we unfortunately had the walls of the tent down but they actually opened it up for me once the rain passed because they knew I wanted to! Even with the rain the venue managed wonderfully with a pavilion for the ceremony and the tent for the reception.

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.

Hi! I’m Becky Sexton-Ellison, owner and chef of Mountain Heart Catering. I’ve been cooking since I was tall enough to reach the stove, learning from my mom, grandmother, and babysitter. Cooking is my passion, and I love making people smile with homemade Southern food.

Absolutely stunning venue. From the moment I found this venue, I was so excited. Patricia was so communicative and answered all of our questions. We even had the opportunity to view the venue, and well, it’s even more beautiful in person. The reception hall, the cabin itself, and the deck with a view, it’s all so amazing. My wedding itself turned out so wonderfully with all of my vendors. We did end up having our ceremony and reception outside on the deck, for more dancing room. We had 60 guests and it was perfectly spaced out and just wonderful. There is so much decor that Patricia allows you access to, and her website easily shows you a lot of it. I 1000% recommend this venue. We loved it and our guests loved it!

My work is defined by the intersection of European art influence and American classics. I offer a highly intentional, elevated approach to wedding photography — one that prioritizes both aesthetic excellence and emotion. With a bilingual background and experience working with international clientele, I easily find the right approach to my clients needs. Through a balance of intuitive direction and unobtrusive observation, I capture both the grandeur and the quiet, fleeting moments that others often miss. The result is a body of work that feels timeless, sophisticated, and deeply personal.

Hiring Anastasia was one of the best decisions we made for a wedding. She has photographed so many friends of ours and came highly recommended by them, so I already knew she would be amazing. From the sneak peaks, I was already blown away. The gallery felt so natural, smooth and emotional. We instantly fell in love with it. She’s very talented, but she is also an amazing person. She would calm me down, but at the same time make me positive about everything even little details that were beyond our control. I was amazed by her professional and creative view. She definitely sees something that we don’t see. We are so grateful she was part of our wedding and would recommend her to anyone, especially if you are considering a destination wedding in Sevierville and Gatlinburg she truly made our experience unforgettable.

Black Orchid Events is a local WNC event production company specializing in event planning, bar and event staffing in and around Asheville, Hendersonville, Brevard, Highland, Cashiers, and beyond. 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!
