We had a wonderful wedding at the Hawk & Hawthorne, I loved it there! The venue was beautiful and they were supportive through the whole process.
Clean, beautiful and everything flowed very well. We loved the landscape and the barn was beautiful! The team at the Hawk is awesome and supportive!
The Hawk and Hawthorne was a wonderful place to be married. The people are friendly and cool, the views and landscape are gorgeous. That land is very consciously tended with gardens and fruit trees. I love the mission of the place to stweard the Earth in a conscious way, grow biodiversity, and build community. The Hawk and Hawthorne has a wonderful energy and positive vibe that you can feel when you are there. Thank you Michael and Rachel for all you do!
Hawk & Hawthorne was the perfect venue for our wedding. The heart-shaped pond was such a beautiful setting for our ceremony!
Michael and his staff were very professional and accommodating and went out of their way to be helpful.
We looked at much more expensive venues in town that didn't have nearly as much charm or rustic beauty.
We would highly recommend them for your wedding!
My partner and I had our handfasting/wedding in the barn at Hawk & Hawthorne.
The space was overflowing with magik. Michael was so kind and easy to work with. Attentive to all my needs while simultaneously giving me space to create the container I wanted without a 'hovering'.
I would recommend Hawk & Hawthorne to anyone looking for a beautiful barn & farm venue.
I enjoyed having the barn as the ceremony space as it was acessable for all guests while the land was large enough for people to go for a stroll when they wanted to.
Thanks to the team at Hawk & Hawthorne for holding my special day!
The entire team at the Hawk & Hawthorne was truly truly fantastic. From the second we got on the property to the moment we left, I was SO happy I choose this venue and the team. Rachel and Michael were so supportive and worked with us on making our vision come to life. The entire staff TRULY went above and beyond. We had a not so awesome experience with our planner and the Hawk team stepped up and added so much value it was wild. One of the team became my impromptu DJ at one point... (like I said, above and beyond). I am so grateful for the team!
Now.. on to the space. I think I dreamed up the property because it was truly one of a kind. From the natural flowing stream with fresh water, to the heart shaped pond (which is not at all cheesy ha!) to the amazing views... it was just epic. Plus so many spaces in the area are a bit more cookie cutter, and this one was truly unique.
For anyone looking to embrace the natural beauty of Asheville and be supported by the most gorgeous land and crew of heart felt humans, this is the spot.
