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.

Rain or Shine

Our wedding at this venue was absolutely wonderful. The cabin was spacious and beautiful, giving us the rare opportunity to have our entire bridal party and both sets of parents stay together for the weekend. It created such a warm, memorable atmosphere and made everything feel so special.

Even when the weather forced us to move our ceremony from outside to inside, the transition was handled seamlessly. The indoor space was stunning, and everything came together effortlessly, allowing us to truly enjoy the moment without stress.

We could not be happier with our experience and are so grateful we chose this venue. It was the perfect setting for our wedding, and we would highly recommend it to any couple looking for a beautiful, welcoming place to celebrate their day.

Perfect wedding venue!

Beautiful wedding venue! It is the PERFECT place to get married. Everything was so perfect and the views are breathtaking! We couldn’t have chosen a better place to get married. The Vieux cabin is amazing and had plenty of room for the bridal party. Several of our family members/ friends stayed on site in the other cabins as well and loved it! Katherine and Mary Kate were so helpful throughout the entire process and are such good people!! So thankful to have found The Mustard Seed!! If you are thinking about getting married here- do it!

Amazing wedding experience and venue



The Mustard Seed Venue and Cabins is a phenomenal location to hold a wedding, party or host your next vacation. All of the cabins and grounds are well kept and have stunning views! The hosts were super helpful and quick to respond with any questions or concerns we had.

If you are planning a wedding in the beautiful mountains we highly encourage you to put The Mustard Seed on your list. We got married here recently and it was just what we were looking for. They have plenty of decorations & center pieces in house that can help you  create your vision and also have a few locations on the property that you can choose from to stand and get married at. The property has 9 cabins as well that all your family and friends can stay at.
Our overall experience with the venue and hosts was very good and we definitely will return for a vacation in the future.

Wedding Celebration

The Mustard Seed Venue was breathtaking for our intimate wedding. If the Bride and Groom want the wedding to reflect their personality, this is the place to be!

The Mustard Seed Venue allowed us to plan EVERYTHING. From the ceremony spaces, items on the menu to the tiny decor details. The autumn ambiance of the outdoor and indoor areas were so beautiful by itself, that it needed minimal decor. We were able to host an evening ceremony in the backyard, the reception in the dinning hall and had our families lodging all in one cabin.

Our family complimented on the beauty of the wedding and their unforgettable stay at The Vieux. Our families felt comforted and at home.

Over a year and a half of planning, Mrs. Tanner(property owner) guided us every step of the way. For every question, Mrs. Tanner was always available to offer multiple resources to make our dream wedding come true. Mrs. Tanner was attentive and exceptionally understanding.

The Mustard Seed Venue is one-of-a-kind and we recommend it to all future wedding couples. Our review comes from a place of appreciation and gratitude. If we had to replan the wedding all over, we would choose the Mustard Seed Venue every time!

The best wedding location

The Mustard Seed is incredible. They will go above and beyond for their guest. We had a wedding of around 70 people and many stayed on the property in the other cabins. My entire family has nothing but incredible things to say about the owners. They were so quick to respond when we needed anything. The property is absolutely beautiful and the cabins are very well taken care of. We couldnt have asked for better. Our wedding was everything we imagined and more. 100% recommend over and over again! You will not be disappointed

An absolutely wonderful experience

It’s tough to sum up feelings that can’t be explained. When you are getting married the last thing you want is to be second guessing anything and the first thing you want is reliability. The Mustard Seed not only was the most beautiful location that we could have ever planned for our elopement but with the support of Mary Kate and Katheryn it became an experience that far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived at our truly unique cabin, with breathtaking views, we knew that we had made the absolute right decision about where to share our vows. Mary Kate truly takes the cake in defining the term wedding coordinator and we couldn’t have been more thankful. Thank you so much, from the bottom of our hearts, for everything you did for us, small and large. You made our day so special and we cannot wait to come back for another stay!

Breathtaking Mountain views

I recently had the honor of marrying a couple at the Mustard Seed this past weekend. The Mustard Seed Venue was a breathtaking choice for the couple that I married to take in the scenery of these views. Behind the scenes, the information that merged to be communicated was quickly responsive and they were forward-delivering, providing my couple amazing customer service every step of the way. There wasn't much that I had to do that wasn't already finished. The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly invaluable - the venue had ample space all the guests, even extra cabins to change clothes, feel a refreshing breeze, and to sit on a porch and have coffee, all while taking in the amazing wide mountain views that words can't even do justice. Not even the great Bob Ross could attempt to capture what I saw on canvas. The grounds were impeccably groomed and well-maintained, and you could just feel the heavenly vibes throughout the entire property. The team at The Mustard Seed Venue were always present without being intrusive when we needed anything, even attaining supplies they hadn't thought to bring themselves. I'm so grateful for their contributions for making the couple that I married, have a miraculous special day even more perfect than they expected. I would be honored to officiate any wedding here again in the future!

Wedding of my dreams!

I absolutely wouldn’t change a thing about my wedding! It was beautiful and perfect in every single way! Everyone went above and beyond to make sure we had our questions answered, and that our wedding was the exact way we wanted. I 100% recommend The Mustard Seed!

The Mustard Seed Venue

I wish everyone could find a venue as good as this one! Having grown up visiting Pigeon Forge for my entire life, I couldn’t imagine a better place to get married. I found The Mustard Seed venue and knew it would be perfect. If you live the Smoky Mountain cabin aesthetic then you will want to book this venue NOW!!

Not only are the owners so helpful, they will do anything they can to make your day special! They came to check on us, helped us find everything we needed, and gave us well wishes and prayers we so appreciated!

The venue itself is amazing! Again, think of the epitome of a cabin in Pigeon Forge with a great view of the mountains and you’ve got the Mustard Seed. The overlook in which we did the ceremony was just beautiful! The cabin that we stayed in and had our reception at was equally as spectacular! With the cabin being only a few minutes from the strip, your guests can stay anywhere and still be close!

Book this venue!! You will not regret it and your day will be everything you dreamed of and more!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
