Reception

Our Wedding

We met on January 12th, 2019 and it didn't take very long for us to realize we were made for each other. Every minute together our love and admiration for each other flourished. We found ourselves enjoying the same parts of life, having complex but loving inside jokes, or as James' Mom puts it "our own language" based on our travels, nights out, and minor everyday moments that we can't help but recall and laugh about. James proposed on January 12th 2021 - at home with some wine and steak, beginning our journey of forever. Our journey continues with our Wedding Day on July 10th, 2021.

The Venue

Please be sure to set your GPS to the venue's address before you head out - or print out directions - because you will lose cell service on your way!

We will be getting married at Timber Hall Events in Leicester, North Carolina about 25 minutes from Asheville. The ceremony will take place in the rustic, vine-covered pergola. The reception will follow in the charming event hall built from logs harvested from the land. There is also plenty of outdoor space on the venue grounds between the covered pavilion, porch, and spacious patio. The more secluded location means cell phone service is not available, but we hope you will take this time to soak up the celebratory atmosphere! We can't wait for you to join us as we say "I do" in the beautiful rolling landscape.

Venue

Airports

Nearest AirportsRental cars are recommended to travel around Western NC! Asheville Regional - 20 minutes from Downtown - Allegiant&nbsp;flies directly from Logan/Boston with pretty cheap fares! Baggage fees apply on them though. Charlotte/Douglas - 2 hours from Downtown Asheville - Decent drive but more flight options.

Accommodations 

Downtown Asheville is loaded with hotels - but they can be very pricey! AirBNBs in the area are generally much more affordable. Nearby towns include Waynesville, Weaverville, Hendersonville, Black Mountain. All are about 30 minutes from Asheville. Check out cabins in the surrounding area as well!

Things to Do

For those coming from outside of NC - Asheville is situated in the heart of the Blue Ridge / Smoky Mountains. Asheville is a hip city with lots of breweries, music, and amazing food! James &amp; Rose's Recommendations

See & Do

The Biltmore House - One of the icons of Asheville. Beautiful, huge mansion, with great gardens, history, and more. Tickets are on the pricy side but if you're visiting from out of town I have to recommend it! The Blue Ridge Parkway - The Blue Ridge Parkway is a scenic road that goes up and down the Smoky Mountains. Take a ride, stop at the scenic overlooks. Check out the sunset at Water Rock Knob. Note - cell reception is spotty on the Parkway so be sure to have directions set before you get on! Great Smoky Mountain National Park - The most visited National Park in the country. Lots to do and see here, the entrance is a little over an hour from Asheville. Downtown Asheville - Some of our food and drink recommendations are downtown, but in general just walk around, there's so much food, drink, and charming stores to check out! West Asheville / Haywood Road - This is another strip of restaurants, breweries, and bars. This is generally less busy than downtown and more "local". Waterfalls - There are so many amazing waterfalls in the Western NC area. Some are right off the road and others require a hike - do a search to find the best ones for you. Hiking - Lots of hiking trails for every level! Harrah's Cherokee Casino - Located in Cherokee, about an hour away from Asheville. Very well kept casino - with a resort connected. Tubing - Rent a tube and go down one of WNC's many rivers. The French Broad river goes right through Asheville, but many question how clean it is. The Oconaluftee river is in Cherokee, and is generally regarded as cleaner (And a little warmer).

Restaurants / Food

Curate - Spanish/Mediterranean Tapas - our favorite restaurant. Pricy but great! Nine Mile - Unique Caribbean inspired pasta dishes Strada - Great Italian food, the pasta is all handmade, fresh. 12 Bones - For awesome southern BBQ, visited by Obama on his tours here. 828 Pizzeria - Amazing NY style pizza, using fresh mozarella! Universal Joint - Great burgers and pub grub, right next to our house! Foothills - Burgers and other meat! Papas and Beer - California style Mexican food! Moose Cafe - Farm to table, great breakfast Biscuithead - Southern style biscuits with unique toppings, very busy. Waffle House - 24/7 Southern Icon, Try this at 3am after a night downtown drinking for best results Rocky's Hot Chicken Shack - Southern cooking, hot hot chicken! Try the pot pies if you want something different Hole Donut - Yeast style donuts made to order - so great! Dobra Tea - One of James's favorite places in the world - sit back and drink some tea! Old Europe - Small bakery and coffee that offers amazing cakes and other sweets. Skip desert at the restaurant and go right here.

Drinks

Asheville is loaded with awesome watering holes, here's some of our favorites. Sierra Nevada - About 20 minutes from downtown. We had our first date here! World famous breweries Eastern location. Beautiful brewery! Take a tour, grab a beer, enjoy the beautiful outdoor area, eat some amazing food! Don't miss this! Highland Brewery - Another great brewery, the first big one in Asheville. Fun outdoor area, music, etc. New Belgium - The other big boy brewery, not nearly nice as Sierra Nevada but it's right on the river near downtown. Old London Road - James &amp; Rose's soccer crew hangout Haywood Country Club - Located in West Asheville, bar with affordable drinks and cocktails. Not a country club. Double Crown - Dive bar of dive bars Brew Pump - Gas station bar, affordable pours, good folks.

Travel & Asheville

Crystal is Rose's older sister. Crystal and Rose spent much of their childhood forcing their mother to judge their singing contests (somehow, they both lost).  Rose can't imagine being without Crystal's support and unintentional jokes.

Crystal Jenkins

Sean is James's brother.   James and Sean grew up together playing street hockey and N64.  They share a love of laughing at their Dad and nostalgia for puffs of Runescape.

Sean Campbell

Katie is Rose's best friend. Inseparable since 4th grade, their friendship is older than Animal Crossing, as evidenced by memories of their beloved town of Lemonade. Rose has never pictured her wedding day without Katie by her side!

Katie Bryant

Ben is one of James's best friends.  Ben and James share their passion of traveling and have taken trips together from Vegas all the way to County Leitrim, Ireland.  When not traveling Ben and James enjoy nerdy discussions, good food, and Woodford Reserve.

Ben Rogers

Melina is James's 11 year old niece who lights up at the mention of Sonic the Hedgehog and cats- she's excited to graduate from flower girl to Jr. Bridesmaid! 

Melina

Joseph is Rose's beloved nephew.  Joseph is 16 and loves hunting and making people feel uncomfortable in conversations.   Wild card.

Joseph McCoy

Miah is Rose's niece.  For Miah, "dance like nobody's watching" is less a suggestion and more a way of life.  You can catch her busting a move 24/7. Miah's favorite thing about Aunt Rosie is the trips to the park!

Miah Jenkins

Natalie is Rose's niece. She is intelligent, kind, and almost always smiling.  Natalie's favorite thing about Aunt Rosie is....probably James.
