Located in Sevierville, Tennessee, next to Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg, The Vieux provides a wedding venue in the heartlands of the forested central-southeast with breathtaking mountain views. Owners Kathryn & Wendell Tanner have enjoyed renovating many cabins and want to create the ultimate comfort and luxury for all their guests. The company was established in 2016 when they bought their very first cabin so they could recharge in the pleasant surroundings of the natural world. Throughout the properties, there is a genuine emphasis on homeliness, with the well-thought-out design, rustic and plush furnishings, and on site cabins to house your loved ones during your wedding festivities.

Facilities and Capacity

The property features five additional cabins and 3 rental units for up to 34 additional guests. The Vieux cabin can sleep up to 20 of your guests, and with a 2 or 3-night rental, the venue is free. You can extend your celebrations to make the most of your special day or honeymoon on the property in a cozy cabin. You and your guests can indulge in the rugged beauty of the mountains, gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, and you'll also find a small pavilion and outdoor chapel where you can hold an open-air ceremony framed by the mountains.

Services Offered

The property, complete with a wedding venue and overnight lodgings, is the ideal all-inclusive* space to hold your nuptial celebrations. You can tie the knot by the pavilion, in the outside chapel or directly in front of the mountain view, followed by an outdoor reception or retreat to the cabin for a cozy get-together. You can invite your selected vendors to the location for an even more unique aesthetic for your occasion. Reach out to Kathryn, and her team at The Vieux for more information on their wedding and rental packages.

Winter Wonderland Wedding

Y’all where do I even begin?! From the moment I booked with Kathryn I knew I made the right decision in choosing my wedding venue. The customer service was top tier. From checking in multiple times months prior to the wedding and the communication the week of the wedding I was so thankful we chose The Vieux. There was a winter storm coming the Monday before our Friday wedding. Kathryn made sure to check in that we had the appropriate vehicles and supplies to get to the cabin initially. She and her husband came out to pour salt on the driveway, make sure we were set and checked in multiple times. I am so so grateful for their communication and hospitality. Now on to the actual cabin… WOW. Pictures will not do this place justice. It is extremely accommodating for large parties, it is so cozy and there’s plenty to do when stuck inside and hiding from the cold weather. We had 16 adults stay in the cabin and it never felt like we were on top of each other. As for our big day- There are multiple areas you can utilize for your event. We chose the wooded area right outside the back door and it was gorgeous. We had 30 guests total attend the wedding and it was the perfect size for our group. There are also so many tables, desks, chairs, etc., to utilize and help your vision come to life which helped us keep our cost down on extra rentals through a vendor. Even through the stress of the winter storm, vendors having to cancel, uncertainties if our guests could make it up the driveway- it turned out perfect and more beautiful than I could ever imagine. If you’re thinking of booking for a vacation or an event… just do it! You will not regret it.

90 Guest Summer Wedding at The Vieux

We had a very successful 90 guest summer wedding at The Vieux and it was absolutely beautiful! The views from the cabins deck were amazing as well as the ceremony area up on the hill. The owners are very accommodating and willing to help with anything that they can to ensure your big day is special. The cabin was beautiful, clean, spacious, and stocked with the majority of needs. We were also able to rent most of the other cabins on the property which was so nice to have close family and the wedding party be onsite. I am so grateful to have had my wedding here!

Only things to note:
- Maintaining and storing enough ice for coolers and drinks was a challenge.
- The Vieux and ceremony area were indeed within walking distance, however it was up a gravel hill so keep that in mind for telling guests what shoes and attire to wear. We ended up renting golf carts last minute to bring guests back and forth.

I truly enjoyed having an outdoor wedding at this venue and would choose to stay and host here again and again.
