Our wedding at the Inn on Biltmore Estate was absolutely perfect. We stayed at the Inn over the weekend and upgraded to a Mountain Suite which had beautiful views and plenty of space for the ladies to get ready with hair and makeup in the morning. We did the first look at the Inn and then went over to the Biltmore House for wedding pictures. The photos came out so beautifully with the Biltmore as the backdrop. The ceremony was held at the Vista at the Inn which has a great view overlooking the mountains. The cocktail hour was held on the Terrace, the bar was in the Gallery, and the reception was in the Vanderbilt ballroom. We had 55 guests so the space was the perfect size (max capacity is 80). The food was incredible. Multiple hors d'oeuvres, cheese and charcuterie board, carving station, and each pasta station came with two types of pasta. The cake made by the pastry chef at the Inn was also delicious and they designed it beautifully as we had described our vision to them. We also used Biltmore Floral as our florist and all the bouquets and flower arrangements were so pretty. The flower arch for the ceremony was gorgeous and they picked the most beautiful flowers that matched our color scheme and preferences. The Biltmore wedding team throughout the process was very helpful and communicative (shoutout to Tara!). Having our wedding at the Biltmore made it all the more special for us and our guests and we can't imagine having had it anywhere else!

The Biltmore Estate was an absolute dream of a wedding venue. It was beyond my wildest expectations. I lost count how many guests told me it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. October 30 had perfect skies, leave changes in the trees, and fantastic weather. Nothing beats the backdrop of the most beautiful home in America, surrounded by stunning mountains and trees and grounds. We were so impressed by the entire process. They somehow managed to make us feel like we were the only wedding that year when I am sure we weren't even the only wedding that weekend. We got married at the Diana venue overlooking the house and it was absolutely perfect. They will not do another wedding near the house if this is where your wedding is booked. Stephanie Moline was a huge, huge help and so kind and thoughtful! She works incredibly hard and is a wealth of knowledge! The food was all incredible, the cake was beautiful and delicious, and the decor was exactly what we wanted!! Thank you!!!

The Biltmore and their staff went above and beyond to make our day special and perfect. It truly felt like a fairytale!

WOW! The Biltmore Weddings, Floral, and Pastry teams were fabulous to work with!

VENUE:
My husband and I got engaged in March 2020 and instantly knew we wanted to have an international wedding in the countryside of England. As COVID-19 progressed, we realized that our dream wedding wasn't going to happen as we didn't want to risk our guests health and safety. After the hard decision of not having an international wedding, we quickly set out to find a venue in the United States that evoked the same feeling we had wanted in our English garden estate wedding. We researched several venues but instantly new Biltmore Estate was THE venue as soon as we met our Biltmore Coordinator, Emily Rarhle, and she took us on a tour of all the venue possibilities.

BILTMORE WEDDING TEAM:
We had a small, 23 person ceremony and reception - originally planned for the Champagne Cellar but with COVID restrictions we had to move our wedding to The Inn on Biltmore Estate. The ceremony was held on the Belvedere Terrace, cocktail and wine tasting in the Gallery, and our reception in the Vanderbilt Ballroom.

Our wedding at the Biltmore Estate was beyond incredible! Our Biltmore wedding coordinator, Emily Rarhle, was a dream to work with. She answered all of our questions with detail and was instrumental in helping us plan our dream wedding through the planning process and execution during the wedding weekend. Even throughout the pandemic, Emily graciously worked with us to figure out new alternatives to the COVID restrictions set forth by the governor and ensured all of our planning would be absolutely magical.

CATERING & PASTRY TEAM:
Not only was the Biltmore Wedding team amazing, but our food was absolutely out-of-this-world! From our passed canapés to our reception dinner to our wedding cake created by the pastry team, everything was to the level of Biltmore standards and beyond delicious. Our guests raved about the food and our cake for weeks after the wedding and my husband and I constantly talk about how wonderful everything tasted.

FLORAL TEAM:
Let's talk florals! After booking our venue and interviewing with several different floral companies around Asheville, I instantly knew that I wanted to move forward with Lizzie Borchers and the Biltmore Floral team. Flowers, along with Photography, were my top must haves that would make or break the overall experience while my husband wanted to focus on food and venue. I wanted to have a true partnership with all of my vendors and Lizzie Borchers with the Biltmore Floral team instantly clicked! As soon as I explained what I wanted from a floral aesthetic I trusted her judgement completely. The overall theme of the wedding was to evoke an etherial romantic English garden. Lizzie suggested florals that would fit within a soft and romantic color scheme and that were true florals grown on the estate to capture the natural beauty of what Biltmore offered. When I say, "I trusted my vendors completely," I truly did. It's sometimes hard to describe the vision you have in your head to someone for what you expect, but when I walked into the Vanderbilt Ballroom and Belvedere Terrace to see my vision come to life, I was in utter shock because Lizzie and the Biltmore Floral team had gone above and beyond my expectations and truly transformed the space into something even more magical than what I could've imagined. They nailed all of the details perfectly!

Wow. Biltmore made me feel like a disney princess. Everything about my day was so incredibly perfect. Thank you so much Biltmore for making my day amazing. I will always hold this place close to my heart. I can’t wait to celebrate my anniversaries with you in the future.

Our wedding team at the Biltmore Estate – Ashley and Andrea – are the dynamic duo brides need to plan a wedding. Add in a global pandemic, and they are invaluable.

From the moment we first drove onto the Biltmore Estate (pre-COVID), we knew it was the place we wanted to be married. The views are spectacular, the service impeccable, and the experience is unforgettable. We wanted this for us and our guests, and the Biltmore team delivered.

Once COVID hit, the Biltmore closed and we had a million questions about what would happen next. Ashley stayed in constant touch, answering our questions through email and over multiple calls - keeping us updated on how state and local restrictions affected our wedding. We needed to make a lot of changes and Ashley, along with our wedding planner, Mary Bell, made the process so much easier.

And our wedding was perfect!

Our guests are still raving about the property, the hotel rooms, the wedding venues and the amazing food. And we are so grateful that we were able to focus on each other all day rather than the details. It’s a top-notch venue and team that will make your dreams come true.

Emily, Stephanie, and Savannah at the Biltmore Estate have been amazing. From our first phone call to our tour of the venue has been truly an amazing experience.

We got married at the Lioncrest Venue on the estate and Stephanie from the wedding department was absolutely amazing. It was very convenient since they handle catering, cake, tables, linens, etc all in house, so while planning I only needed to worry about hiring a florist, photographer, and DJ. Everything else was handled by the Biltmore. Stephanie helped make planning the smoothest process. I couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else!

The Biltmore is of course stunning and jaw dropping experience on its own. We hosted our rehearsal dinner here and did our first look and had a private vow exchange on our wedding day here. We worked with Andrea during our rehearsal dinner planning and she was incredible! So accommodating and friendly throughout the entire planning process. Quick to respond to emails and made suggestions to make our evening magical. The event turned out better than we could have ever imagined! It could have been our wedding that was how gorgeous it was! Food was delicious and the flow Of the night was well executed.

Everything about my wedding at Biltmore was a dream. My catering sales manager (Stephanie) was very responsive and helpful throughout the process. The rental and catering selections were easy to work with and everything turned out exactly as I had hoped. Our banquet captain at Lioncrest was the absolute best, we are so lucky to have had him. So happy we choose Biltmore for our venue!
