A beautiful place for a wedding!

My husband and I loved having our wedding at Emerald Ridge! The staff was amazing throughout our wedding planning experience and on the day of our wedding. Everything was beautiful!! Malorie was our wedding planner and we loved having her. She was very responsive, attentive to detail, and easy to talk with. We also really enjoyed the "No Rush" package. We did our rehearsal at the venue and the bridesmaids stayed in the house on the property all weekend. We would highly recommend Emerald Ridge!

Everything we were looking for and more

The team at Emerald Ridge Farm (ERF) was absolutely awesome throughout contracting, planning, and execution of our wedding. We were looking for a relaxed, intimate setting for our wedding and the No Rush Weekend at ERF checked all the boxes for us. The accommodations at the venue were perfectly homey for the weekend and we felt confident, regardless of weather conditions, the venue had great options for all scenarios for our wedding.

The venue provides many different features to allow a variety of ceremony, cocktail hours, reception, and photography options that we were able to set up exactly as we desired for our wedding size. Our initial wedding guest count was expected to be 70 but we dropped down to about 35. We had lots of open space (which worked well for our design/vision) but it still felt very cozy with the setup job the team did.

The team provided exceptional service in finalizing decor/arrangements on the days leading up to our wedding as well as to our guests throughout our entire celebration. We really felt like we were treated as family by the team which made the whole weekend all the more special.

We also loved that it was highly accessible to Downtown Weaverville and Asheville for our guests to have options of where to stay on their visit to the Blue Ridge Mountains.

If you're looking for a relaxed, intimate setting, ERF belongs at the top of your list. The landscapes and vistas are gorgeous throughout the day and into the evening. Our guests couldn't stop asking "where'd you find this place?" and the team fully delivered!

Beautiful Venue and Wonderful Staff

Our wedding at Emerald Ridge Farm was absolutely lovely! From the very first tour to post-wedding cleanup, the entire experience was wonderful.

The venue is absolutely gorgeous and we got so many compliments! There are beautiful flowers, spectacular mountain views , and COWS! Their package is truly all inclusive (including decor) and there are multiple areas to utilize — the barn, tent, tree, the deck. Plus, the location is awesome. It’s so close to downtown Asheville! And our guests enjoyed staying at nearby Airbnb’s.

They have great add-ons like coordination and setup/cleanup. Malorie (our coordinator) was an absolute delight to work with and we don’t know what we would have done without her. She made our vision come to life! The owners and staff were awesome and attentive as well.

We will spend a lifetime looking back on our special day and will always have the fondest memories of Emerald Ridge Farm!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
