Laurel Falls

to the rhododendron forest to the well-equipped historical lodge and cabins. You may also be aware that you get the entire 18-acre venue and its 4 cabins for three whole days. These pieces alone could easily win you over. What can’t be captured in the photos is the quality of service, thoughtfulness of design, ongoing support, depth of knowledge, and genuine kindness exuded by each member of the Laurel Falls staff. Trust me, when planning a wedding, these things are VERY important, especially when planning from afar. Jordan, the owner, gave my then-fiancé and I the history of the property then took us on a tour of the property (and even did the on-site hiking trail with us). As we visited each area of the property, he helped us envision how we might use it for various weekend festivities. A wedding at Laurel Falls meant a long weekend with our favorite people in a gorgeous place and time to relax and soak in the whole experience - not just a single night that flies by so fast you don’t remember it. Despite my indecisive nature and this being the only venue we’d visited, it felt right and we knew it was for us. From this point, Kristen, the Events Director, was our main contact. There aren’t words to describe how phenomenal this woman is. Kristen is always so kind, helpful, positive, AND she could answer literally any obscure question I had. I reached out to Kristen to ask her recommendation on the ceremony start time because I wanted to be mindful of how the sun would impact the temp and the lighting at our chosen ceremony site. I expected just a discussion, but she blew me away when she also sent me the LF Pinterest page along with the names and ceremony start times of featured former couples married our same month. When I wasn’t sure how to arrange the tables and where to put the DJ to maximize dancing, she gave me insights AND shared layouts from other couples with a similar guest count. These are just a couple examples of Kristen’s meticulousness and level of support every step of the way. The Laurel Falls team truly thought of everything to make the wedding experience easy and pleasant. With the setting, we knew the wedding festivities would be beautiful, but the magical, memorable weekend wouldn’t have existed without the LF team. We’d choose this place - and these people - over and over again!!

w stunning the property was. All that stayed in the cabins and lodge had a comfortable and restful stay. We used the tables and chairs that Laurel falls provides and they were great. We highly recommend laurel falls and would choose them all over again!

rom showing the grounds and wedding ceremony areas (yes there’s multiple!!!!) everything through a video call! Eventually we did get the chance to see it in person…yall it is so beautiful. Even when bare the beauty of the houses and nature surrounding is stunning. Being out of state meant finding accommodations for my family but no fear Laurel Falls was able to accommodate all of us! Which was so convenient to have all of our loved ones so close to us! Laurel falls is truly a brides dream come true! They have so much to offer from decor to trustworthy vendor recommendations! Regardless if you plan to have a wedding planner or plan it yourself Kristen will help you out!!!!! On our actual wedding day They sent out Mac to help us with the setting up of everything and i cannot thank them enough!!!! Mac was able to help us get it together so we can enjoy our day! From the helpful staff, amazing views, and on site accommodations this is the PERFECT wedding venue. These views were magical! We even got a rainbow moment along the mountaintops! These pictures truly don’t do it justice! 10/10 experience if i could give 500 stars i would!

oved to see the work that was put into updates along the property (adding more parking, more accessible restrooms, improving the outdoor space outside the barn, etc) based on clients’ feedback! You can tell Paul really cares about making the space perfect. Additionally, communication throughout the entire year after booking and leading up to the wedding day was spot on. Kristen is so organized and communicative, an absolute pleasure to work with. We also utilized the preferred vendor list to book a lot of our other vendors which was super helpful and a lot of them were very familiar with the space making planning easier. The scenery speaks for itself, but our out of town family and friends were absolutely amazed by the beauty of the fall colors. It was so nice to have on-site accommodations for most of our guests and feel tucked away in the mountains while also only being 15-20’ from the heart of Asheville. I wish I could relive this day over and over. Laurel Falls helped make our wedding day even more perfect than we could have imagined!

o communicate/work with before and during our weekend. We are so thankful for such a beautiful place to remember forever!

g I wish we could do every year. I mayyyyy have shed a tear looking out at the mountains the day we had to leave. If you're thinking about booking, do it! We had 16 folks stay onsite with us, and everyone was so impressed with the venue. If I had a dollar for every time I heard someone say "how did you find this place?!" Kristen, the Events Director, was INCREDIBLE to work with throughout the planning process. She always had answers for my random one-off questions, and I enjoyed those emails frankly. She is such a delight. Paul, Laurel Falls' owner, was also amazing as he called us the day of our rehearsal dinner on The Lodge porch with great news that our linens were arriving just in time for the rehearsal dinner. The attention to detail and well wishes were so very appreciated as we shuffled around to make sure everything was just right. Andy was also incredible helping us on the day of to make sure all our wedding guests knew where they were going. You just can't beat this level of service, on top of a location that just cannot be replicated. I felt like Snow White surrounded by cute little gophers and birds and my fully adult human dwarves (aka my friends and family it was dope).
