We recently hosted our send-off brunch at Sylva Social, and we couldn’t have picked a better location to wrap up our wedding weekend. Most of our guests stayed in Sylva, so having a beautiful downtown location that was easy for everyone to get to the morning after our wedding was perfect. The team was professional and made the entire process seamless. Sylva Social is such a beautiful space, and we loved having the flexibility to make it our own. We were able to bring in our own decor while also incorporating some of their in-house pieces, which made the space feel personal and perfectly suited to our brunch. And the food was amazing! The coffee from Blue Ridge Bootleg was incredible, and our guests absolutely raved about the breakfast sandwiches. Even our vegan guests said it was some of the best-seasoned tofu they’ve ever had. The chef even went the extra mile and carved our initials with a heart into a watermelon that served as the fruit bowl. Such a thoughtful and special touch! We couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. Sylva Social was the perfect place to gather with our family and friends one last time and wrap up an unforgettable wedding weekend. We are so grateful to the entire team for helping make it so special!

Robin & the team at Hi-Wire were such an incredible asset to our wedding weekend. They hosted our "Rehearsal Dinner/Welcome Party" which was a trivia night that we hosted. The bartenders went above and beyond with the slideshow clicking duty while working the bar! They had all required electornic capabilities for our set up. We had some delay with the projector, but it was promptly fixed during the meet and greet portion of our night. The venue is spacious with plenty of room for our 70 guests. The photobooth was such a fun additional! The bar had plenty of options, including options other than Hi-Wire beers. The bathrooms were clean with plenty of space. We were able to snag some photos over in the tasting room/cannery and those turned out to be some of my absolute favorite from the weekend. The bright colors of all the cans made for such a fun backdrop. We absolutely loved working with everyone at the Event Space!

Highland is definitely the best venue in Asheville! The rooftop has beautiful mountain views, the barrel room has a great skylight and hanging greenery, and the reception space can be made into whatever you want it to be. We used all three spaces for our wedding and it has great flow and plenty of space for a larger guest count. Erin & Bailey were both extremely helpful throughout the entire process from touring/initial questions to all the tiny details leading up to the big day. Our wedding was scheduled shortly after the hurricane in fall 2024, and we were so passionate about having it at Highland that we rescheduled to 6 months later, and couldn’t be happier with our decision. Amazing staff, excellent draft beer, convenient to downtown, and a beautiful space; we can’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else!

We had our reception at Trailside this past Fall of 2023. The day of, everything went perfectly. We were given ample time to set up, freedom to move around in the space, and ability to utilize it as we saw fit. The venue usually has live music, but they booked an acoustic band, which set up in the main dining area of the brewery. Our reception was able to play its own music, from speakers we brought, and not feel impacted from the live music going on for the rest of the patrons. Our event did not co-mingle too much with the general public; however there was a couple people that drifted in and we politely asked them to leave. As stated above, our overall day of was all we could have wanted and more. The days leading up to our reception were very stressful due to renovations that weren't quite ready for our event. Since we were the first party in this space, we had to bare the growing pains, which Trailside tried to accommodate for as much as possible. I believe since we were the "test" party, this team will grow from the experience. All in all, our reception day was all we could have wanted and more, so when it came down to the wire, the team delivered.

I can’t say enough amazing things about this venue! As a wedding planner, I always like to work with venues that have checked all their boxes. Meaning, they have thought through everything that a couple could need at their venue. I love that they have tables and chairs already on site for couples to use, that way they don’t have to outsource them. Another thing that I absolutely LOVE about the venue, is that they have created the space in black and white. This is absolutely PERFECT for anyone who wants to come in to have their wedding/event and make it their one.
