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!!! -

Biltmore Estate Wedding - WOW
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! -

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! -

The Biltmore was absolutely amazing. Every minute of our entire weekend was wonderful and the food was magnificent -
Joy Sent on 09/30/2017You get what you pay for, and the Biltmore is priceless. By the time we'd added up all the expenses from other places we considered, Biltmore ended up being a wonderful deal. All that aside, the scenery and the estate are beyond compare. The staff was top notch. They were on top of it from start to finish. From meeting with them early on, to the actual day of the wedding, the attention to detail was as "Biltmore" as you'd expect. Beyond my expectations even! I never have to wonder "what if" because I truly got married in the place of my dreams.

Sarah Sent on 11/02/2017There are wedding venues, and then there is the Biltmore! We had our ceremony and reception at the Conservatory and Walled Gardens in June 2017. At every step of the way, the Biltmore was professional, a breeze to work with, and made my life easy planning from a different state! The food was spectacular, the grounds were gorgeous, the logistics were smooth, and the venue was decorated beautifully. Thank you Biltmore, for a gorgeous wedding we will never forget!

User2459571 Sent on 12/09/2015We had our small wedding reception in The Dining Room at the Inn on the Biltmore Estate. The sit down dinner was amazing and the best food we have ever had. We had a small party of 15 and they went above and beyond to make our night special. Scheduling and booking was simple and the catering department was prompt with responding to phone calls and emails. They were even willing to provide flowers and a wedding cake if we so desired. The wait staff really makes you feel welcomed and they are extremely friendly. I will always plan my special events there and hope to have many anniversaries celebrated there. -
User2509206 Sent on 01/18/2016After visiting several venues in the Asheville area, we chose The Inn on Biltmore Estate. The location provided us a gorgeous setting for the ceremony and the ballroom was beautifully prepared for the reception. This was the first wedding we had planned and we were so impressed with Ashley Gardner, the senior events manager at the Inn. She and her team did an outstanding job from start to finish. The price may seem high initially but when all the services that are provided are considered, we felt it was well worth it. Highly recommend. -

Erik Sent on 11/06/2015I have nothing but wonderful things to say about our experience with the Biltmore. From the first email, they were kind, responsive, and extremely helpful. Stephanie Woods was our catering manager and she was fantastic to work with - no matter how small a detail or how menial the question, she made sure to help in every way she could. Our ceremony and reception was in the Conservatory; it was beautiful and perfect for a small wedding. The catering staff was fantastic - very attentive to allergies and special requests; our guests could not stop commenting on how great the food was (and we agree!). The day of staff was so great - they made sure everything ran smoothly. I could go on forever about how great the entire process was - I can't wait to go back to visit.Biltmore Estate's reply:
Erik, thank you so much for the kind words. It was a pleasure to work with you and host your special day. We look forward to welcoming you and Liz back to the Estate soon! Congratulations!
