Fantastic Value, Great Staff, Beautiful Views

If you're a minimal planner, they are definitely the way to go. Flowers, music, the reverend, photographer, and even more depending on your package are included! Valerie did an amazing job with the pictures and paid attention to detail. Rev Jeff was so kind, and the rest of the staff were great too. All of my guests loved the place as well.

Great venue for great value.

I will be upfront and tell you that we get money off on our photos for reviews that we leave, however I cannot recommend Above the Mist and Valerie enough! From start to finish, they made our wedding day absolutely seamless. The venue itself is stunning and the mountains provided the perfect backdrop for our day, but what really blew us away was how well the ceremony and the photography came together. Valerie knew every single inch of the property, capturing the light and the scenery perfectly. The staff was incredibly accommodating, professional, and kept everything running smoothly. If you want a stress-free wedding day and breathtaking photos to remember it by, look no further!

Excellent experience and amazing wedding!

We had the absolute best experience with Above the Mist planning our small, remote ceremony! Since we were planning from NC, we had a ton of questions, but the entire staff was incredibly accommodating and answered everything along the way. For a small, 18 person ceremony, we were able to get a reasonable package that included everything we wanted. Rev. Jeff was fantastic, and our photographer, Valerie, was so professional. The views were spectacular and the whole process was completely stress-free and easy. I honestly can’t recommend them enough!

Mtn Elopement

We had an amazing elopement ceremony on the mountain. It ended up being a rainy day but they had a backup sheltered area. Reverend Jeff was accommodating to our ceremony wishes and Ryan Grace took such amazing photos! She paid so much attention to detail and made the process feel fun and authentic. Would 100% recommend Above the Mist weddings.

Above the mist above and beyond

My wife and I wanted to a simple, sweet elopement with just us. Reverend Jeff and Ryan did a phenomenal job helping and communicating with us what we needed to do. From the moment we showed up they had smiles on their faces and provided an awesome ceremony and photography even with the bit of a drizzle with the weather.

Best wedding venue!

Our experience with Above The Mist Weddings was truly amazing. Everything was organized so seamlessly from beginning to end, which allowed us to fully enjoy our day without any of the usual stress that comes with weddings. They took care of every detail, and it made all the difference.

Reverend Jeff was incredibly warm and welcoming, and he created a ceremony that felt personal and meaningful—even though we had only just met him. Valerie, our photographer, was outstanding. She kept everything running smoothly, gave great direction, and made sure we got the most out of our time for photos. Her fun personality helped us relax and feel completely comfortable in front of the camera.
We’re so thankful we chose this team for our wedding and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.

Flawless All Inclusive Wedding Package

We had an incredible experience with Above The Mist Weddings. From start to finish our day went incredibly smooth. They handled quite literally everything which let us coast through our special day without all the typical wedding stress. Reverend Jeff was so kind and welcoming, and somehow made our ceremony so personable despite only meeting him a few minutes before. We had Valerie as our photographer who was exceptional. She directed everyone perfectly so that we could make the most of our short time frame for photos. She had a great sense of humor and made us feel so comfortable during our photos. We are so thankful we chose this option for our wedding day and could not be happier with how everything turned out and went!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
