This team is absolutely INCREDIBLE! The high standard of service and hospitality that they have for their events and the care they show towards their couples is top tier. From our first tour, to the planning process, to the execution everything was perfect. I was a wedding planner at a hotel for 2 years and understand how challenging this process can be from a vendor standpoint. Emma, who was our wedding coordinator, handled everything with such professionalism and grace. We got married in October, just a couple weeks after hurricane Helene swept through and my family was so concerned. Emma was the epitome of calm and assured us everything would be alright and that they could still host us, so it was full steam ahead. She is the glue that held our day together and kept us on time while coordinating with our other vendors. I was able to turn off my planner brain and truly live in the moment of the day. Emma, words can't describe how thankful we are for you!! ❤️ The venue is absolutely stunning and loved having the castle to ourselves! The food was amazing, and our guests are still raving about the wedding 2 months later. My parents want to plan another visit back to Bear Lake because it holds such a special place in our hearts now. So all I can say is thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for bringing our dream wedding to life. Cheers! Tamryn & Andrew

There are not enough words to describe how incredible this venue is. Everything felt exquisite and elegant. We are from Minnesota and this location was a bit of a destination wedding for us. Since Castle Ladyhawke offers so many services with their venue, it was perfect for arranging things halfway across the country. The location is in the mountains so the overlook of the trees is stunning. We got married in October and some leaves started to change so it was especially beautiful. The castle had many amazing details and decor throughout. You will really feel like royalty just being in the castle! Make sure to take the time to explore the fun rooms like the pub and knights chamber! Our wedding coordinator, Emma, was the highlight of this venue (aside from it being a castle of course). Emma was thorough, organized, professional, and also friendly. We got married about a week or so after the devastating hurricane that came through WNC. Fortunately the castle location and lodges were safe and all the staff were okay. With all the stress of the wedding planning, Emma was fantastic. She was reassuring, uplifting, and hardworking to make sure everything was taken care of for our special day. The food was also delicious and the cake was perfect! Funny enough my new husband didn’t know about anniversaries cakes and ate some of it the second night after our wedding because it was just that good! 😆 The vendors suggested by the venue were also great! We ended up loving them all especially the DJ (Dow Oaks Events) as they were fun, reassuring during stressful times, and professional. The transport company Mountain Motor Coach was also friendly, fun, experienced, and professional! We loved that we could bring our dogs for the ceremony as well! There are so many great things to say about this place. If you are considering it, trust us, they are worth it!

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about this wedding venue. The views are spectacular, the castle is magnificent, and the staff is phenomenal. From my first inquiry, to my tour, to the booking process, to my wedding day, the staff at Castle Ladyhawke has been so helpful and kind. Kelsie, Emma, and Mason answered all of my (many) questions and went above and beyond to ensure that my wedding day was perfect. I booked the inclusive wedding package and you really cannot get a better deal. All my guest raved about the catering, my photos turned out fantastic because this venue is just beyond gorgeous, and I didn't have to worry about anything on the day because the onsite coordinators, Kelsie and Emma, took care of everything. Kelsie is just a wonderful person and Castle Ladyhawke is incredibly lucky to have her. She is kind, professional, and just amazing at her job. I cannot recommend this venue enough!!

Our wedding at Castle Ladyhawke was everything we dreamed of. I put in an inquiry and got an immediate response and was scheduled for a virtual tour within days. Mason was really helpful in answering all of our initial questions and showing us different contracts options. Neither my husband nor I were really into wedding planning and making a lot of decisions, so the all-inclusive package was the right thing for us. Makenzie was very helpful in assisting with the Bear Lake lodging piece. Our wedding planner, Kelsie, was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any of our questions and needs throughout the planning process. We were extremely happy with all of the vendors included in our package for the catering, cake, flowers, entertainment. The staff were extremely helpful and attentive on our wedding day, making it go as smooth and stress-free as possible. Kelsie even went above and beyond and offered to pick up our guests from the Bear Lake Welcome Center when they had a flat tire. The wedding venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and our guests loved exploring the castle. I highly recommend this venue if you're looking for a beautiful and unique place to get married with a gorgeous view.

I was continually amazed by how laid-back yet professionally everything was handled, which allowed us to have control over what we wanted but gave us much needed direction too!

If I could rate it higher I would! Our wedding at Castle Ladyhawke was an absolute dream. With around 3 months to secure a venue and plan a wedding, Castle Ladyhawke and their inclusive wedding package came up at the perfect time. Working with Kelsie was the best experience. She was patient and kind and made us feel so special from day one. I’ve worked with a lot of vendors through various events in the past and Kelsie is hands down one of the most professional, funny, friendly and skilled wedding/event coordinators I’ve had the pleasure to work with. She made sure our day went off without a hitch (and navigated mother natures curveballs with ease) and made us feel so at peace. She truly provided a sense of calm that made us feel so at ease throughout the entire day and wedding planning process. It’s not easy being the center of attention sometimes, but Kelsie made us feel like absolute royalty. We chose the inclusive winter wedding package because it helped us save so much time — not having to vet and contact vendors for rentals, florals, cake and catering. The ability to upgrade and customize these things if we wanted helped us make sure we had the wedding that felt like us and was so beautiful and personalized. We are so appreciative of everyone at Castle Ladyhawke and can’t wait to come back to the area to visit. This venue and views cannot be beat. The food was absolutely amazing and everyone is still talking about how delicious it was. An incredibly unique venue and their winter wedding package truly is such a great deal. We never thought we could have such a dream wedding. We definitely will renew our vows here one day!

What a perfect day! My husband and I tied the knot in early October at Castle Ladyhawke and we honestly could not imagine a more perfect day. While the venue itself has a feeling of remote wonder, I have to say the best attribute that comes with the space is actually the day of planner, Morgan. While our contract only listed her as a coordinator and day of planner, her presence and skills were vital every step of the way during the planning and day of. I was trying to plan the perfect day and relied heavily on Morgan’s opinions and experience through it all. I hope they pay her well because she was a game changer in my opinion when it comes to overall experience. We went with the all inclusive package and were so pleased with how everything turned out. From the explore weekend and seeing the castle for the first time (plus the awesome and so fun cake tasting) through the day of, each detail was well planned, well communicated and well anticipated by the staff - once again shout out to Morgan! If I had to come up with one critique it would simply be the speaker placement for the reception outside, which is the option we chose. The speakers are placed on the second floor of the castle and the dancing deck is below, with the gorgeous blue ridge mountains acting as the opposing wall, much of the loud party atmosphere we were hoping for was impossible to achieve as the sound was quite literally lost in the wind. We had to request the music be turned up a few times and honestly they were doing all they could, just a challenging situation no matter what. If you are considering the Castle for your venue and really want to party at the reception, maybe consider dancing in the main hall for acoustic purposes. Honestly there isn’t a bad way to plan your wedding here, it’s all a work of art!

A must-book venue for a celebration of any size! My husband and I got married here in October 2023 and the ambiance, service, and food quality is truly unmatched. We wanted an intimate elopement on a weekday with just our immediate family present (fewer than 10 people) and signed the venue purely off a virtual tour as we live out of state. Because of the elopement package, I was able to be my own planner to curate all the details I thought about which I loved. Morgan was an absolutely incredible thought partner through out my 10 month planning journey and was a fantastic day-of coordinator to ensure every detail went off without a hitch. Every question I had was answered promptly, all the preferred vendors we booked were fantastic, and the cocktail hour bites + cake were delicious with rave reviews from all our guests. The entire staff during rehearsal and our wedding day were incredibly kind, thoughtful, and helpful which made the day even more memorable. Our wedding felt like a dream thanks to the entire team at Castle Laydhawke and I cannot overstate how highly I recommend this venue.

Morgan and Castle Ladyhawke are amazing! We did their "effortless elopement" package and it truly was effortless. Morgan went above and beyond. One of our guests was supposed to tie the groom's bow tie and they got stuck in traffic. Morgan, along with our guests, jumped into action and figured out how to tie it. As I was getting ready to head down the stairs for our ceremony, Morgan touched my shoulder and said "I know I told you before but you look beautiful. Talk about a great calming boost on my way down to the ceremony! Then when it was time to cut the cake, we had no idea how to cut it and not make a mess of the cake. Morgan walked us through the process and we had a flawless cake cutting! Morgan and the rest of the Castle Ladyhawke team helped make our day truly magical and unforgettable. Thank you Morgan!

For how much the package and add-ons were, we did not get the experience we paid for. Everything was a hot mess to say the least. I was not picky or demanding about anything, I really wanted this to go as smoothly as possible for not just myself but for the workers. One thing I was adamant about was no shellfish as we had multiple family members with a severe allergy. They decided to tell me the day of that they could not change it and they had shellfish there, after a whole year of letting them know this was a priority and them agreeing as well as understanding that they would not have it there but then did. very frustrating... The whole process of trying to make sure every vender they hired was on the same page was another hassle. It was truly miserable experience more so for someone that wanted simple wedding, I couldn't even get that. I was charged for things I shouldnt have been charged. They also charged a family members card instead of mine, after many attempts to which they said they would fix, they did not and its been over a month. Personally it was a beautiful location, but it was more of a headache then it should have been especially with how much was paid for such a short time and no help from the staff, with countless mess ups. I don't recommend this venue.

My husband and I were never people who wanted big weddings or a lot of attention. I'm not someone who is into planning or wanting to spend time picking out what color napkins to have, or table cloths, etc. When my husband and I were planning to get married, I knew It had to be in the mountains and I was hoping to find some sort of package that took care of the important stuff, so that I didn't have to go searching for a bunch of different vendors. So, when I came across Castle Ladyhawke, I just HAD to reach out. We chose their elopement package and it was just absolutely perfect for us. Not only are the views (obviously) amazing at this location, but the staff was great on our wedding day. Mason was my first contact when reaching out and she was so helpful and attentive and able to answer any questions in a timely manner. Morgan (our event coordinator with Castle Ladyhawke) is a sweet angel and was beyond helpful in every way. She was always quick to respond to questions/concerns before the actual wedding day. On our actual wedding day, she kicked butt and made sure everything was running smoothly and getting things done the way they were supposed to (even if our families were being slightly crazy and making it harder than it had to be - I'm sure you know how that goes). She was so patient and kind and truly a pleasure to work with. I honestly couldn't have chosen a better venue to have our special day at. Thank you, to everyone at Castle Ladyhawke for making our wedding day amazing!

AMAZING!!!!! We recently had our wedding at Castle Ladyhawke and it was simply amazing. Every single individual that was apart of our big day went above and beyond our expectations. From Morgan and Callie making sure that every detail was perfect to the servers and valets who made sure that everyone was taken care of. I especially would like to say a BIG thank you to the valets that were working that day because they helped an elderly family friend who was having trouble getting up and down the stairs get to where she needed to go. If I could get married every week at Castle Ladyhawke I definitely would. If you are thinking about getting married here, DO IT!! You will not be disappointed.

Castle Ladyhawke - a dream come true! From the moment we first arrived for a tour we fell in love with the Castle! Every little detail of the Bridal suite is so well thought through! The suite is huge! Makeup area is a separate room, so we had so much room for fun photos and video! And it has a balcony and so much natural light! Loved the huge elegant bathtub in a room with the view! Wherever you go in the Castle, mountain views are spectacular! We even went all the way up the stunning spiral staircase to the top of the tower, so many gorgeous photo opportunities! Loved the staircase as well!! This is a dream location for the couples and for any photographer/videographer. The ambiance of the Castle is so amazing. So many different spaces inside and outside for the guests to roam around. The ceremony site is gorgeous and spacious, right next to the Castle walls with the mountains behind. We absolutely loved Kelsie, the Wedding Director! She knows the answer to any questions and she’s such a huge help! She just makes you feel completely relaxed and chill. It means a lot, especially on a wedding day! We’ve been filming weddings for many years and I just simply can’t compare any other venue in North Carolina to Castle Ladyhawk. So beautiful and welcoming the Castle is. It’s a rare find!

Castle Ladyhawke... I can't even find the words to give this venue the justice it deserves. Our guests anticipated attending our wedding by seeing photos of the castle for the entire year leading up to it and have not been able to stop talking about how beautiful, and unique it was. It felt like a true fairytale. The staff here became like family. They were beyond accommodating! Every concern we had, they nurtured and put our stresses at ease. They had a solution for every problem we could foresee possibly happening. (Just to mention, we had ZERO problems) . Kelcie and Callie are so sweet and so professional. The vendors they recommended for us to use were absolutely incredible. The chef's food was AMAZING! I still think about the truffle mashed potatoes! I wish we could have our day all over again. It was comfortable for not only us, but all of our wedding party and our guests. Everyone had such a great time, and again have not stopped complementing our venue. I recommend this place to any bride looking for an absolute dream come true, fairy tale wedding. Thank you Castle Ladyhawke for making our day absolutely perfect. -The Sullivan's

I had such an amazing time working with the members of Castle Ladyhawke! I was a bride planning a small wedding in just 4 months. Castle lady Hawke has many wedding packages and their micro wedding package was EVERYTHING! I completely put my trust in their food, cake, and bouquet and they nailed every one! this was the perfect thing for me as I was out of state and unable to be there in person for what most traditional weddings need. not to mention when we went to tour other venues this team was the only one who seemed fully prepared to "woo" us and had a full brochure of everything we could think of. they had all of the little things prepared for us that really let us put our full trust in them. they felt like friends to both of us from beginning to end! also its a GORGEOUS venue obvi

The Castle made our dream wedding come true! It was so great to work with them. Callie was very attentive to the menu and all our catering needs, which was incredibly helpful because we had a lot of allergies to work around! Castle Ladyhawke sits on top of a steep hill, but the view is so worth it. You may want to advise your guests to carpool or arrange for transportation. It's such a beautiful location with so many spectacular options for your wedding ceremony and reception. The staff members are great and easy to get along with, too! We had a large wedding party and had to go with our backup plan of having the wedding indoors. The Castle accommodated our every need! I'm grateful for how great they were to work with over the months leading up to the wedding. Again, I'm so grateful for Castle Ladyhawke, their lovely locations and views, their friendly staff, and everything they encompass. We definitely want to go back and visit someday, for one reason or another! :) Again, thank you so, so much for giving us the fairytale wedding of our dreams!

The Castle was a dream come true! I never thought I would have such a beautiful and caring place to marry my best friend! The ladies, Kelsi and Callie, were absolutely amazing and very professional. They answered every question we had and kept us on track with final decisions. They was gorgeous and went smoothly. I never had to worry about a thing and was able to enjoy the day, then wake up in the quiet castle in the clouds.. magical <3

I'm a wedding photographer in Western North Carolina who has been documenting weddings at Castle Ladyhawke for many years. This venue is a remarkable property that is truly gorgeous in all seasons. Working with couples at the castle is a photographers dream. This venue offers beautiful backdrops from mountainscapes to interesting interior and exterior views of the castle itself. There isn't another venue in Western North Carolina quite like this one...all brides and grooms who have the chance to get married here will love their unique and dreamlike collection of pictures to tell the story of their castle wedding!

All of the staff members were fantastic and treated not only us but also our guests like royalty. Let’s touch on the food, AMAZING!!! The guest were raving and are still raving about it.

Honestly, the mountain backdrop is to die for! I promise you will no regret this venue choice!!

Kelsie & Callie were amazing to work with! So helpful and really went above and beyond to make sure our clients had the wedding of their dreams and that everything was perfect. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, but the staff are what makes it exceptional! I look forward to working with them again and planning many many more events at what I’ve dubbed the ‘Castle in the Sky!’ Thank you!

As a local wedding planner I am always on the hunt for great venues to refer my clients to. Castle Ladyhawke did a wonderful job in helping make our couple's magical day come to be. They were responsive in pre-wedding correspondence, their staff were friendly and helpful on wedding day, their in-house catering was delicious, and they were flexible to work as a team when wedding day changes were made. I enjoyed my experience with Castle Ladyhawke and definitely recommend them to others looking to have a dream wedding day in a mountain castle!

My husband and I were looking for unique places to elope and a friend recommended Castle Ladyhawke. I am so thankful they did because, my goodness, from the staff to the *beautiful* venue, and the outstanding communication with the wedding coordinator, Kelsie, we could not have asked for anything better!! The elopement package included EVERYTHING you could think of, you honestly wouldn’t have to worry about a thing. The price is WELL worth what you get in return, and the staff was so sweet and helpful, our special day was perfect ❤️

My fiance and I immediately fell in love, not only with the incredible charm of the venue and the neighboring Bear Lake, but the over-and-above mentality of absolutely everybody (without exception!) with whom we interfaced from Day 1. Mason, Kelsie, Callie, Rachel, Sarah -- this is an all-star team dedicated to bringing fairy tales to life. And their recommended chef? YES. That's all I need to say. Do yourself a favor and take a step off the beaten path. This might just be your venue.

We are absolutely over the moon for this venue. I cried the whole first 30 minutes of my wedding day when I arrived because it was just so breathtaking. The venue has every thing and more you could ask for. It is in a beautiful, convenient location, affordable. The staff and everyone involved was incredibly kind and helpful. Several of my guests said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. I cannot recommend this wedding venue enough. Stop looking and book now! It was the most magical, fairy tale wedding possible.
