The Farm-A Gathering Place

or - Shannon - was amazing at adjusting quickly when the weather was showing a high chance of storms and delivered a beautiful ceremony in our alternate location. They truly made everything so easy and took care of all the decorations, set up, and tear down of the event which was amazing to not have to worry about all those small details! They also provide an amazing selection of food and cocktails that my guests are still raving about since the wedding!

uests cannot stop raving about how beautiful the property was and how delicious the food was! The food is not just good wedding food… it’s comparable to a high end restaurant. We loved our experience here from start to finish, and are so sad it’s over! Can’t wait to go back to The Farm and stay in the amazing cabins on property to relive our day all over again.

erson involved took the time and care to make sure our day was fantastic, and it was! This is a one stop shop; setting, scenery, food, décor, and knowledgeable and caring staff to get you to and through your big day. Hands down the best venue!

food at a wedding they had ever had), and the staff, Shannon (our coordinator,) Melissa, Kristie, Satima, everyone was a joy to work with. Everything went beautifully and we cannot recommend The Farm enough.

just walking up to the (small) hill to the reception. Absolutely beautiful, love the in-house decorations and wedding planner and all the staff. In house catering was incredible for vegetarian wife and meat-eating husband. Great local beer options and delicious wine. You can be as involved in planning the wedding as you want but they have so much to support you from the start! The one site cabins are also a great option for staying for the weekend!

hey took care of every single detail! BEST TEAM EVER! They really have this down to a science and for a moment we were almost able to forget covid. We can’t thank them enough for creating the best day of our lives!

ments. We knew that this was where we wanted to get married. They provided a list of recommended vendors, which was so helpful with us living in Atlanta. We booked all of our vendors from their list and had most key details in place before COVID hit. Then, we found ourselves in a pandemic. The Farm clearly communicated every step of the way. They quickly built an outdoor pavilion to further accommodate their couples and were as flexible as they could possibly be throughout the process with COVID guidelines, mask policies, temperature checks at the door, and everything we needed to feel safe and comfortable. We safely attended 'The Taste of the Farm' event and stayed onsite to experience one of their beautiful cabins. We had Zoom calls throughout planning and loved getting to know Emily even better as we got closer to our day! Emily was so incredibly attentive, kind, and always helped us stay focused on it being our day. She helped us figure out any challenge that came our way and made us feel so special! Also, the food was absolutely delicious, and on the day of, Satima always made sure we had everything we needed. I specifically remember feeling myself getting stressed right after the group photos as we were trying to make sure we quickly captured everyone since it was cold outside. Satima brought a warm cup of water to hold in our hands and one of our delicious custom cocktails. At one time, I thought "where did my faux fur wrap go?", and there it was on my chair waiting for me at the reception. Melissa came to pick me up in the golf cart and helped me remember to grab my bouquet. Right before I walked down the aisle, Emily helped adjust my veil. These are just a few of so many instances throughout the day and evening where the staff supported us. The entire team at The Farm made the experience so seamless and made it possible for us to have our dream wedding in the middle of a pandemic. We cannot say enough positive things about our experience at The Farm and highly recommend that you have your special day in this magical place!

ur day possible. They built a gorgeous pavilion and outdoor firepit which allowed us to have a small gathering outside in a way in which we felt really safe and ended up being very cool and special. The whole team at the Farm is great and went above and beyond to help us. We had a great call with the planning and business folks to discuss all our options and also to get more information on all the things they were doing to keep guests safe. It was so informative and helpful for us to make our decision about whether or not to even move forward. The kitchen staff and chef are also top class. Our menu planning was so incredibly fun and our food was just fabulous. We got a lot of compliments on the food and also the wedding in general just being very unique and fun.

ng for an intimate and safe location to elope. We stayed in one of the Farm's rustic, romantic cabins on property and the staff treated us like royalty! The 2 of us said our vows, drove around the beautiful property to take lots of wedding photos, and enjoyed a fancy, delicious 5 course meal with beautiful plate decor and drinks all night long. We very much had the most perfect, intimate wedding day thanks to the amazing staff at this property. I cannot recommend this venue enough. We put a lot of trust into The Farm while planning our special day from afar, and it could not have worked out better, or been a more special day. We can't wait to come back in the near future and visit again!

eased all our worries going into our weekend. The food was AMAZING- our guests are still commenting on it 2 months later. Satima and Mike even took care of some unexpected changes and allergies for our guests the day of. We stayed in the cabins on site and had our dog with us for the weekend, using the space for a rehearsal dinner and welcome drinks the night before our big day. Communication was great throughout planning, the setting was beautifully decorated and I didn't feel like I needed to micromanage anything. With all the space my guests felt so safe and they still comment it was the most fun they have had at a wedding- pre or post COVID. They made us feel so loved and supported throughout the entire weekend.

e Farm team was fabulous throughout the process. We also attended a Taste of the Farm in February and were so impressed with the attention we received, and the food was so delicious. We had reached the menu planning stage and THEN - the virus situation hit. The wedding had to be postponed twice, and with all the uncertainty, we finally decided that the event could not occur as expected in NC. We were heartbroken for many reasons, but really were disappointed that we could not have our special rehearsal dinner event at The Farm. As previously mentioned, all of The Farm team members were so helpful throughout the process, and were especially flexible and understanding with the changes. I will sing their praises to anyone who asks. Maybe we can enjoy the venue in another way sometime in the future. I know I won't have to go "shopping" for a venue in the Asheville area ever again. This is my go to place.

aff felt like family at the end! I can not recommend this venue enough! Our small wedding was more than I could have imagined!! Thanks to Brad, Melissa, and Elizabeth for making this my dream weekend I didn’t even know I had!

10 person wedding wasn't our original vision The Farm helped to make our wedding day feel like we planned it from the start. They took a one day, 130 person celebration and made a four day, 10 person wedding weekend! We were able to get pampered for an entire weekend all thanks to The Farm. Many other venues were canceling during this scary time. The Farm took this set back in stride and managed to give us an even better weekend while following all local and federal restrictions. We felt safe and cared for during the entire process. Having to change our entire wedding a few months before could have stressed anyone out. Luckily, The Farm saw this as a fun challenged and were excited to think up a new vision for us. They even made it a point to make all of our guests feel special by catering the bar options to their tastes (I.E a Bourbon Bar for the Dad's, Gin and Tonic bar for mom's, speciality mocktails for a pregnant Matron of honor and a cigar lounge for the groom's brothers). The Farm isn't in the wedding business to just make money; they truly care for their clients and want each wedding to be the best it can be. My husband and I can say for certain our wedding would not have been the same without The Farm. Words cannot express how thankful we are for them.

with such ease. I recommend staying at the cabins- being at the venue the whole weekend really helped us get the most out of every moment.

gram (I’m originally from Virginia and he’s from South Carolina). I was dreading wedding planning, especially with being overseas, but The Farm honestly made it so easy! From our first point of contact, to talking with the Chef (Satima) and working with our wedding coordinator (Jennifer) everyone was so friendly and accommodating! It truly was an all inclusive venue offering all the services including a place to stay for us and our family and friends, catering, and they have an array of decorations that you can use. This includes chairs, tables, napkins, table cloths, etc... Our coordinator Jennifer even worked with our florist to decide what designs would look best. It was everything I was looking for! We loved all of it! And Jennifer was an awesome coordinator! Our moms and sisters stepped in for us at the food tasting and they loved her! She also pinned my dress up for me since my bustle wasn’t working during my wedding. She is just so unbelievably sweet and we LOVED working with her! I truly cannot say enough good things, but my husband and I 100% would recommend this venue! And we suggest you use their on site cabins too, it makes things that much easier the day of!

dibly kind, easy to work with, flexible, and SO helpful with planning/offering ideas, and making sure the day was exactly how we wanted it. Myron & Beverly (owners) have thought of absolutely everything someone could possibly want in a venue, and there are so many cool details/little touches that make a wedding at The Farm so unique and memorable. We worked mostly with Bethany initially, who gave us multiple tours, helped us get all of the details laid out, coordinated our food tasting, and was always prompt with responding to any questions we had. The cabins are AWESOME! It was so nice having everyone in one spot, but we all had our own space too. Satima planned our menu, and truly went above and beyond to make sure the menu was not only perfect, but that I had plenty to eat as well (I am gluten/dairy intolerant). Between Satima and Chef Mike, the food was seriously some of the best food we have ever had! Our wedding coordinator, Jennifer, has got to be one of the best in the business! She has awesome ideas, and helped me so much in taking my ideas and making sure they worked out. She (in addition to everyone at the farm) genuinely cares about making the wedding planning process as stress free as possible and she did more than we ever even expected to make sure our day was perfect. I absolutely cannot say enough nice things about this place. The venue itself is gorgeous! There are so many options for a ceremony/reception, and one thing that really worked for me was the indoor option is almost (those mountains are hard to beat!) as beautiful as the outdoor option. It was comforting to me that I knew if it rained/was too cold I would not be disappointed if we had to have everything inside. Fortunately, we were able to have the ceremony outside, and the pictures look like they are straight out of a magazine with the beautiful background. Our guests are still talking about it-- most have said this was the best wedding they have ever been to. Anyone that is even remotely considering getting hitched in NC absolutely should check out The Farm! I cannot imagine a more perfect venue/staff exists!

venue is stunning. We had guests from all over the world and they all couldn’t stop talking about how perfect everything was. Thank you for giving me the wedding of my dreams!

to see the mountains behind the gazebo. With the afternoon sun in the background it was just such a beautiful setting for a wedding ceremony. The food was delicious and the staff was amazing. A special thank you to Jennifer our wedding coordinator who was so responsive---she even answered my emails on Sundays! I would strongly recommend reserving the cabins for a wedding event. It gave our immediate families and bridal party a way to stay together and gather for pre-and post wedding celebrations in a beautiful and rustic setting.

ing small to spend meaningful time with family (who had never met before because they live in different states). Satima was amazing and helped us intentionally plan the meals (to give family a way to mingle) and Chef Mike’s food is the best food our family has ever tasted. Jen was our coordinator and couldn’t have been more attentive and helpful as we planned the wedding from Rhode Island with ease! Our families stayed in the cabins on the property and we were able to make a magical multi-day wedding that we will cherish forever! The team became family by the end of the week and we can’t wait to come back down again to visit!! I could not recommend the Farm more!

ots. They really take care of you and are very professional! I love working here with them!

rue. They made sure our needs were met throughout the whole reception. Our coordinator Jen was such a calming force and she truly took care of it all! We cannot recommend this venue enough. If we could, we would do it all over again in a heartbeat :)

helpful and nice! The owners are so sweet! I am so glad we chose The Farm and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a place to get married!

ontrol) they made everything incredibly smooth and fun for everybody. We truly felt 100% stress free and relaxed because we knew we were in the best hands. We still have guests telling us that the food was the best they've ever had at a wedding (seriously, the food is amazing). From the day we set our wedding date through the actual wedding, the staff at the Farm was extremely helpful with the planning process and were open to any and all questions we had. They have an awesome store of decorations which means a LOT less stress in that department. The venue itself is gorgeous, we got endless complements on the venue from our guests. We don't have a single complaint! Bottom line, get married at the Farm and they will take care of you, and you'll have the time of your life! Erica was our wedding coordinator and we can not say enough good things about her. She is VERY good at what she does and she's an awesome person in general! We always felt really comfortable with her, and we felt like she really knew what we were going for and made it all happen. She made our wedding that much more perfect and we gained a friend in the process! Thank you Erica!

We chose The Farm as our venue because we felt like we were a part of their family, we were not just clients but became a part of The Farm family of weddings. The Farm has wedding preparations and planning down to a science and a well oiled machine- as people may say. Our hearts will always be filled with happiness and fantastic memories from Erica and The Farm's staff <3

, with the backdrop of the Farm's natural beauty, are amazing. We were also so impressed by the delicious food and the dedication shown by the entire staff in helping to make our wedding such a beautiful, special and personal celebration. We loved The Farm!

us it was the best wedding food they had ever had. The gnocci is the best I've ever had anywhere. The beer and wine selection is fantastic as well. The whole staff is so nice, including Jennifer who was our planner. There are many beautiful spots to take pictures, and it was great to see all of our friends and family's pictures near the horses and at sunset out in the beautiful yard. Our pictures also turned out amazing due to the field with mountains in the background across the street. If you can rent a cabin on the property, it's so convenient and the cabins are super nice. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and it's thanks in large part to the farm. I highly suggest booking with them. It's well worth it.

they don't leave anything to chance. We had the good fortune of working with Bethany and she always made us feel that everything was under control (because it was). We also chose to work with an outside planner and the Farm was accommodating and courteous. We did two visits beforehand to sample food and wine and when the weekend finally came we were so happy hosting our wedding party onsite. The cabins themselves are just beautiful. But the day of, we were just blown away by the staff. We hadn't seen the venue in full swing and the kindness and professionalism we received from everybody we interacted with was really a highlight. If you care about your wedding's food, you can't go wrong with The Farm. Everybody talked about it. Our guests couldn't get over the location, the horses, the way the sun sets across the fields - we just couldn't have asked for much more. We plan to go back and stay at the Hickory cabin for our anniversary in the future - it's a special place!

years before the wedding. In that year and a half, we visited several times and experienced some of their special events such as culinary escapes and cooking classes. Everything The Farm does is on point! Our wedding was June 8th and EVERYTHING was fantastic. First of all, we booked all of the cabins on the property for family members of the bride and groom. This gave us some extra time to spend together and get to know each other. The “cabins” are beautiful and very comfortable. We all enjoyed exploring the property, playing with the horses and “Donkey” the burro. For the wedding, Bethany Holder was our wedding coordinator. She was beyond amazing! For a year and a half, she patiently and expertly answered all of my questions and gave us guidance on every aspect of the wedding. A couple of weeks before the wedding, she took over all the communications with vendors and developed a detailed timeline. She executed our dream wonderfully. And on the day of the wedding, she and the staff did EVERYTHING! It was like I was a guest at our daughter’s wedding. The wedding and reception were beautiful. We had 170 people. The wedding was outside under a clear tent and the reception was inside/outside. We had a large band and there was plenty of room for the stage and dancing. Chef Mike and the kitchen staff outdid themselves: appetizers of homegrown tomato bruschetta, chicken and waffles, ahi tuna. Our main courses were shrimp and grits, flank steak and gnocchi with roasted vegetables. Everything was hot, fresh and delicious. Several guests commented that it was not only the best wedding food they had ever had, but the best meal they have ever had! Brad and the bar staff created and served fantastic signature cocktails; a seasonal Old Fashioned and a spicy cucumber vodka drink. Throughout the dinner and reception, the staff were attentive to every detail, even pushing in chairs, clearing plates and straightening napkins if a guest left their seat so the venue always looked lovely. We did have a downpour on the day of the wedding, and we elected to have the ceremony in a clear tent with an arbor in front of the horse pasture instead of under the gazebo. It was beautiful. And immediately after the ceremony the white dappled horses came over for wedding photos with the bride and groom and guests. We could not have planned it better, but I suspect The Farm staff had a lot to do with the timing! Earlier in the day, we had one snafu with the tent gutter but after putting our heads together with Bethany and the venue manager, we were able to resolve the issue in time for the ceremony. As the bride and groom exited, the guests blew bubbles. And the bubble machine provided by The Farm, made for beautiful photos. Rather than a late-night snack, we wanted to provide our guests with Bojangles chicken biscuits as they boarded the buses. The Farm staff even picked up the biscuits for us and kept them hot in their warming oven. These biscuits were a huge hit! Overall, I cannot thank the Farm enough for making Paige and Kent’s wedding such a carefree, joyous occasion!

change a single thing about the weekend!

ither of us could have asked for!

l cared for. I highly recommend doing business with them.

day this is the place. From day 1 they showed and investment and interest as us as a couple that really set them apart from every other venue we visited. Their caring attitude showed from their punctuality, professionalism, and thoughtfulness to every last detail. Highest recommendations for this venue (our guests agreed!)

azing experience with them. They made the planning process so easy for us. They provided us a list of recommended vendors that we used to choose from and every vendor was exceptional and worked great with The Farm. I can’t tell you how easy it was to work with them, especially on the day of! EVERYTHING was done and ready to go and My husband and I had absolutely nothing to worry about, nor did we ever feel like something would not be ready for us. They took AMAZING care of us throughout this whole journey and insured that all the tiny details were handled. I’ve heard many brides tell me they were unable to eat on their wedding day due to nerves, or not having the time, that was not the case for us. With everything being taken care of for us we enjoyed the delicious food they provided for us. Absolutely delicious!! We had absolutely no stress on the day of which meant we could enjoy the beauty of the whole farm! From the gorgeously blooming flowers, to the scenic mountains in the backdrop, it’s absolutely stunning! We recommend staying in The Chestnut Cabin for a little Honeymoon after the wedding!!

edible from start to finish. I knew that no matter what happened, we were in good hands! What initially attracted us to The Farm was their on-site kitchen and huge decor closet! We had to bring very little with us the day of the wedding. Our wedding guests could not stop talking about how incredible the food was...and it was beyond delicious. Chef Mike is awesome! I also recommend staying in one of their "honeymoon" cabins on site. We had to-go boxes of our dinner ready and waiting in our cabin when the festivities were all over. My wife and I enjoyed sitting on the floor in front of the fireplace eating our leftovers! I really couldn't praise the Farm and their entire team enough. Erica and her team helped us have what was truly the best day of our lives - even with it raining!

n venue center is great and it was so nice to have the fireplace blazing on our rainy winter wedding day. We rented out all the onsite cabins for us, our wedding party, and our family and we all found it so nice to stay on the property for the weekend. The cabins are cute, very clean, and well equipped especially Chestnut Cabin which was great for my bridal party to get ready in. Lots of space! The Farm staff are so friendly, helpful, and ready to serve from Brad who gave us a first look tour of The Farm, to Georgeanna and Chef Mike who helped us design our menu, to our amazing wedding coordinator Erica who captured and executed our wedding day vision perfectly! The food is phenomenal, (seriously, so good!!) and Chef Mike was willing to create a custom dish just for our big day. It was really nice having the food onsite for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception. The Farm also has an amazing inventory of decor, dishes, and linens and it was great to have access to any and all of it, as opposed to having to source these items from other vendors. The Farm staff are very professional and easy to work with. They know what they're doing making it easy on us as the bride and groom, and our wedding day went off without a hitch. We highly recommend this venue and look forward to returning for an anniversary celebration in the future!

ing. Knowing that they have such an amazing culinary staff, gave us great peace for such an important event. We had a wonderful time there and would highly recommend them. Also the cabins that they have available for lodging are so beautiful and are a great asset to this venue. Thank you to the Farm for making such special memories.

ighly enough. They made our winter wedding truly the most wonderful day of our lives.

is so accommodating and helpful! They made sure our wedding day was perfect! They even brought us hot drinks when we were freezing outside taking pictures! We are looking forward to visiting again in the future for a romantic get away! Would absolutely recommend this venue for weddings or just to visit!

On top of this, the staff was incredibly kind, detailed, and so personable they felt like family. So for anyone reading this, do yourself a favor and choose The Farm! They are the absolute best at what they do ❤️

it was really important to work with people who made us feel like we were there in person. Bethany even Facetimed with us for our 30 day meeting! The Farm also provides everything you need right on premises. From the onsite catering (Chef Mike is extremely talented!!), to their decor inventory, we barely needed to bring in anything from outside. Our families raved about the venue and how beautiful the land is. Everything went perfectly and I would highly recommend working with them for your next event!

s. The farm also has a large inventory of decor, china, and linens to choose from. Erica, our wedding planner, was upbeat, friendly, and handled everything the day of the wedding. I would highly recommend the Farm to anyone looking at the Asheville area for their wedding.

magical place that brings dreams to life! The Farm and the staff will forever be emblazoned in our hearts and minds!

n I didn't want to be the staff would take care of it and have suggestions. What else could you ask for! I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone!

dy on time and not messing up my vows. The in-house kitchen made a delicious family-style dinner, the wait staff was plentiful and helpful before you even realized you needed anything, the wine selections were perfect, and the bartenders managed the crowd expertly. The event setup was exactly to the plan we discussed. The space was clean and our guests had the best time. There were even baby horses in the field next to the reception who were ready to mingle with our guests! I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to hand over the reins to the experts and enjoy a beautiful, charming, welcoming, indoor/outdoor experience in the NC mountains.

party was so impressed with all the personalization, hard working staff (every single one of them) and the good notes that were taken. Everything flowed so beautifully and what seemed effortless to me as Mother of Bride . That was the best gift I could have received. My husband and I were able to give our family and friends full attention. The surroundings were absolutely beautiful. The Farm framed the best of Asheville with mountains, horses and gorgeous rich foliage, friendly smiling faces. I have been to many venue weddings and this one was my favorite. Bethany was our Wedding Coordinator. My daughter and I made the decisions on flowers, cakes band, shuttles, etc. based on a list that Bethany supplied us with. After we had all the contracts and details worked out we handed it over to Bethany and she made out the day of schedule and took over the communication to coordinate all vendors for the day of. Bethany was worth it! My husband and I simply got to relax and enjoy the entire Wedding day! Grateful to the owners who were so helpful!

ry step along the way. It is so nice having everything on location. Our wedding planner, Bethany from The Farm, made sure to take care of every detail and she was always super responsive and flexible. The cabins on property are so cute and ideal for your closest friends and family. Everyone that stayed on property was so happy they were able to do so. We asked to have the donkey and one of the horses up near the guests and everyone absolutely fell in love with them. We love to visit Asheville and I am sure we will go back and stay at The Farm in the future just because the wedding weekend there was so amazing.

autifully kept farm with horses, a garden, cottages and all around amazing grounds. The food is farm to table and all local with an amazing chef that makes you and your guests feel like they are at a five star restaurant. After dinner my guests would congratulate my husband and I but then would go on and on about how amazing the food was and how impressed they were with the service. Erica was my day of coordinator. I am from out of state and she would email back in a timely manner, talk to me when I had concerns about silly attention to details that I was unsure about and made my day super relaxing. Pretty much she is amazing and will make your day magical. My husband, family, friends and I would HIGHLY recommend The Farm if you are looking for a extraordinary place, with amazing service and attention to detail for weddings in the Asheville area. This place is literally out of a fairy tale!

d staff, and even the owners of the farm were a true joy to work with. We took full advantage of their in-house decor and wedding coordinator services and I am so glad we did. Our coordinator, Erica, was extremely accommodating and involved us in every step of the planning process. She allowed us to customize our wedding exactly the way we wanted but took care of all of the details so that we didn't have to worry about a thing. We got married on a Friday and their was another wedding scheduled for Saturday, though you never would have known. The staff was so generous, accommodating, and present with us that it felt like the venue had been created just for our special day. The food was INCREDIBLE! Everyone who attended was raving about how delicious everything was and about how kind the staff was. I'm so grateful that we didn't have to worry about coordinating an outside vendor for the food and I'm incredibly pleased with the quality of food that Chef Mike produced. My extended family was able to take advantage of the onsite cabins at the venue. Every cabin was incredibly unique, pristine in quality and cleanliness, and located conveniently within walking distance of the ceremony site and reception hall. Our family enjoyed the cabins and location so much that they are talking about returning to the farm for vacation. My wife and I also enjoyed staying in the honeymoon suite cabin. When we got there after the reception, the staff had set out a bottle of champagne and brought left-over food and cupcakes from the reception for us to enjoy. If you are looking for high-quality service in a beautiful location, you will not find a better venue than The Farm - A Gathering Place.

lly made us feel special on our big day. The location is GORGEOUS and we received so many compliments from our friends and family. Everyone loved getting to interact with the horses! We also loved how much The Farm was able to provide. From the catering (some of the best food we've had) to a closet full of decorations at our fingertips, things were made so much easier for us. We couldn't be happier with the decision we made to get married here. Nothing but wonderful things to say about The Farm and the wonderful staff that we worked with!

time to get to know us and was able to infuse so many personal details into the decor. Her creative suggestions made for some of our most special moments of the day. Bethany and the catering coordinator, Georgeanna, were always easy to get in touch with, proactively communicated and literally thought of everything to make our big day go off without a single hitch. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the venue and still haven't stopped raving about how delicious the food was! Chef Mike and his crew served up what many of our guest considered some of the most amazing food they've ever had (and not just for wedding food...they meant ever!). Our wedding parties also loved staying in the cabins at the venue, which made for a super fun three-day party! The cabins were decorated gorgeously and were perfect for getting ready in together before the wedding and for post-wedding festivities! I honestly can't recommend The Farm enough. If you're looking for a venue that embodies rustic elegance, takes care of almost every detail for you, and offers delicious, seasonal menus then look no further.

perfect, settled in the hills just outside Asheville, but the venue itself was wonderful. Plus, being from out of town, their inventory of decor made planning and decorating so much easier than expected. I can't say enough about our wedding planner, Erica! She made the final days leading up to the wedding go smoothly and worked with me as there were little details that had to be dealt with last minute. She and her team worked endlessly to make our evening go well, and she helped us brainstorm ideas to make our reception one of a kind. We really appreciate their attention to detail and their willingness to work with us throughout our entire planning process. Thank you to everyone at The Farm! We'd highly recommend The Farm if you're looking for a wedding venue near Asheville, NC.

and I got to enjoy every moment. If you want your dreams to come true, book The Farm.

nt. She had an answer for everything and was very easy to trust when it came to dealing with all my vendors. I wish I could get married like 7 more times!!

ng with the wedding. The Farm fit, most exquisitely. From the beauty of the outdoor venue to the indoor reception area, to the pleasantness of the staff and cleanliness of the cottages - we could not praise the farm more....Most of our friends and family are from out of town, so the farm was able to accommodate them in their cottages onsite. Which served as super convenient, but so special as these cottages are so DREAMY! Furthermore, Bethany and Georgeanna (the wedding and meal coordinators) were phenomenal. They answered every question possible, were always positive and upon 30 days prior to the wedding...my mom and I had no huge stressors leading up to the day of the wedding. Which, from what I hear, is abnormal. Conner and I, and both our sets of parents are so thankful for the Farm team and what they provided. It was the absolute best weekend of our lives. Love, Steph and Conner

site one time prior to our wedding, which was helpful in selecting our final decor. Bethany was our wedding coordinator, and was very accommodating (up to the day before the wedding – trying to decide to hold the ceremony outside or inside) as was Georgeanna helping with beverages and operations. Both ladies were extremely kind and professional. Our wedding date was December 29 and thankfully we did have the ceremony outside, which makes for a beautiful backdrop in pictures. Thanks again to the staff for making our special day flawless...I wasn't stressed about any wedding detail (transportation/DJ/photographers/cake delivery/decorations/food/officiant/etc) on our wedding day. My husband and I would highly recommend working with the team at The Farm!

was my wedding coordinator and she was absolutely wonderful! She gladly took the weight of tiny confusing details off my shoulders, and the big day took off without a glitch. Everyone at The Farm was more than accommodating. I loved coming in for my 30 day and the taste-testing. RENTAL CABINS: My bridesmaids and I stayed in a cabin the night before and my husband and I stayed in one the night after the wedding. The cabins are adorable, CLEAN, and cozy. I am very particular when it comes to rental places. Cleanliness is huge for me, and both cabins were spotless. It felt like we were the first people to stay in them, not to mention it had all the amenities (ie. wifi, television, kitchenette, double shower, & bathtub, ect.) VENUE: The venue is stunning. It is like a Pinterest dream. Their supply closet is stocked with the cutest decorations, string lights strung outside, lawn games, gazebo, horses, and rolling hills. Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, it is a must see. FOOD: The food was incredible. I have a lot of food allergies which can be difficult, but Chef Mike did not disappoint. He was able to work with my budget and my allergies. Asheville is known for its delicious and original food and this experience was no exception. I wish I could do my wedding all over again just to spend more time with my friends at The Farm. 10/10 Would Recommend!

s perfect! Thankyou!

t is a good half way point for both of our families and it provided onsite housing for most of our guest. We were NOT disappointed. Everyone from our wedding coordinator, the onsite staff and the owners made us feel welcomed and helped make our wedding day one of the most memorable days of our lives. The venue provides a lot of décor, china, tableware, etc which is very helpful for the destination wedding. The location is beautiful and the venue was cozy for our small intimate wedding with family and friends. We would highly recommend this venue and even plan on visiting The Farm again at another time just for a long weekend.

wedding. We worked with irin Battaglia, their wedding coordinator, who was excellent. She coordinated everything with our vendors leading up to the wedding. We also rented the cabins on the property for the whole weekend which was convenient, and the cabins are beautiful! I would absolutely recommend this venue, they are fantastic!

ur search a year prior to our wedding and narrowed our options down to 4 different outdoor venues in and around Asheville. The Farm was our unanimous #1 choice and we lucked into a late spring date. From that point on, we planned our entire wedding from across the country, which is an attest to how amazing the staff is at The Farm. Our wedding planner was changed about halfway through the year, due to staffing changes, which could have been every bride’s nightmare, but our second planner, Kirin, was even more attentive to our needs. We only visited one more time prior to the actual weekend, but we still felt completely in control and that our wishes were being met and exceeded on all fronts. Each time we had a question, we could call or email Kirin at the Farm and we’d have an answer, and more ideas, within a few hours. One of the best aspects of having a wedding at the Farm is that there is so much included with the wedding- The tables, settings, decorations, chairs, etc- It’s all included and that’s one less thing that you have to think about. We also decided to have their in house chef, Mike, be our caterer. The food was better than incredible. Our guests raved about it. He allowed us to tell him our favorite foods, and ideas that we had about sharing local cuisine (we’re both from NC originally), with our West Coast visitors (we now live in California). The day of our wedding was perfect. Everything we had asked and planned for was exactly how we had pictured it. Each event of the day flowed seamlessly from one to the next, just as the scheduled was planned.. The staff was incredible during our ceremony, during dinner and dancing, and at the end of the night. Kirin even drove down the road at 10:00 PM and bought us 100 bojangles biscuits that we had asked to share with our guests when they boarded the buses home. Talk about a hit! Four months later, people are still talking about those biscuits. We can’t thank the Farm enough for providing us exactly what we needed to plan a perfect wedding, from afar, with everything included, at such a reasonable price. I would recommend the Farm to anyone looking for a medium sized outdoor venue in the Asheville area. You won’t be disappointed!

ent that she had everything organized and under control, and that the wedding day would run smoothly. When the weather threatened to change our outdoor ceremony plans, she was calm, flexible and inventive. She also worked tirelessly on the entire wedding day! The venue itself is beautiful and picturesque and the entire place has a very relaxed feel. Having so many decor items present on-site and included in the rental package made the decorating process easy. Chef Mike and Kristie were also a delight to work with throughout the tasting and menu planning process. All of the food - appetizers, main dishes, and sides - was delicious! We received numerous compliments from our guests. A pre-wedding brunch for the bridesmaids and family was equally delicious. We also stayed in the cabins there at The Farm. Having our family and the wedding party all on-site for the weekend made the day much more relaxing, and we felt as though we had the whole property to ourselves. Every staff member we came in contact with... from planning, to set-up, to kitchen staff, to wait staff, to bartenders... were constantly personable and helpful, and just pleasant to be around. Everything The Farm offered and provided combined to make the whole day a complete success. Everyone enjoyed themselves at the wedding - and that's an accomplishment! We definitely have, and will, recommend The Farm!

more than we paid for. Friends and family continue to gush over the setting + service months later

typical bland wedding food here) and the beauty of the Farm. It is also important to note how nice, the onsite lodging was for our families and friends! About half of our wedding guests were able to stay in beautiful houses/cabins that were just steps away from the venue and reception site. I would recommend and encourage anyone to look at the Farm-A Gathering Place if you are planning on getting married in the Asheville area...you can't go wrong!!!

working with Kirin and Chef Mike, we were even more happy with our pick. Kirin was fantastic. I cannot say nice enough things about her. She truly cares about our desires, she is a go-getter and very detail oriented. We could not have done it without her. She coordinated with all the vendors, made suggestions about layouts and really made the whole process seamless. She was incredible and really made me feel at ease. Chef Mike was also fantastic. When we went up for a menu tasting, we didn't know the food would be THAT good. It was all delicious and we loved that it was farm to table. Chef Mike prepared the food as if we were getting it the night of the wedding, with condiments, sides and all. The presentation was awesome and the food was to die for. Probably the best flank steak with chimichurri sauce I have ever had. People raved about all of the food. I would HIGHLY recommend this venue to any bride and groom looking for a rustic elegant feel. Kirin and Chef Mike will definitely take care of all your needs. People came up to us all night telling us how much they loved the environment with the twinkle lights, the smores bar, the romantic fire place and the amazing food. It was very laid back and fun. Thank you so much to the farm for making our wedding dream come true!

dy for the big day stress free and enjoyable! The venue is beautiful and just what we were looking for. Thank you for making our day wonderful!

your loved ones is a gift. It made the weekend feel more like a vacation with all of your loved ones rather than a stressful one-night thing. I can't explain how amazing it was! The ceremony in the gazebo and the reception were just magical. Everything was so breathtakingly beautiful. The Farm provided all of the dishes, linens, and supplies (like mason jars, props, chalkboards, corn hole, etc).. and that made the reception a stress-free and really fun event for everyone. Multiple people told me it was by far the best wedding they have ever been to- and that there was something special about the wedding. I think what was special was The Farm. I wish I could go back in time and be back on the Farm again. The staff is amazing, kind, helpful, and accommodating. It truly felt like home.. and like a dream. So much love and gratitude :)

t up with all of my crazy last minute changes. Not only were they responsive, they provide lists of vendors to use, who all turned out to be AMAZING. If you do have the pleasure of getting married here, I would recommend renting the cabins on site as well. They are cozy, spacious, accommodating and convenient! Everything about our wedding weekend was perfect and we truly have The Farm to thank for that!

ning process was a joy with her and The Farm gave great recommendations for vendors. We used many of their recommendations and all of them were phenomenal. Kirin brought my outdoor vision to life and took care of every little detail which made for a non-stressful wedding day and a perfect wedding and reception. The Farm is so beautiful and provided such an amazing back drop for my guests and photographers. Having the cabins on site, and allowing me to use the space in different ways made the experience feel more unique and homely then other venues I looked at. The Farm is very organized about the planning process which keeps you on track and Kirin, is extremely helpful and calming during the planning process. I really can not sing her phrases enough. Over all, I was blown away by how smooth everything came together and how magical the night was. I highly recommend using The Farm for your wedding! I wish I could do it all again! Aviva and Graham

iendly, and patient. The venue itself is so naturally beautiful, but when decorated, our jaw dropped as it completely transformed into the most gorgeous wedding setting. They have pretty much every item you need for decor, which makes planning a lot easier. When I had no idea what I was doing, they were quick to suggest options and give their opinions. On the day of, they made sure everything went smoothly. We also stayed on the property, as did a handful of our wedding guests and highly recommend the cabins for the guests and bride/groom cottage. The cabins are rustic, yet updated and comfortable. I will absolutely be back for a quiet getaway at the Chesnut Cabin! I would highly recommend the Farm as a wedding venue to any bride and groom wanting a beautiful outdoor setting in the Carolina mountains! I wish we could do the day all over again :)

ting. They made sure someone was able to help us whenever we needed it and helped us enjoy the wedding stress-free. Our guests all commented on how lovely the venue was. We hardly had to buy any of our own decorations (just some flowers) because The Farm is so well-equipped. Their choices for linens, table cloths, and dishware were just what we wanted for the wedding. The lighting inside is perfect and we did not have to change a thing. I would definitely recommend getting the outdoor lighting package, it really added to the ambiance of the night.
