    Longleaf Vineyard and both Wendy and Brain are fantastic!

    Longleaf Vineyard was only the second venue we visited and we instantly knew that we wanted to get married there. The property itself is stunning and feels like stepping into another world! From the start of our planning process through the end of the wedding day, the proprietors Wendy and Brian were supportive, responsive, and immensely helpful resources for us. They are super connected to the other wedding vendors in the area and gave us great recommendations and guidance. I cannot recommend them and Longleaf enough!!

    Wendy and Brian have found something special in the wedding industry! Highly recommend

    Incredible venue and team! We couldn’t have been happier with our wedding. Initially we tried for a west coast mountain wedding (where we live) but quickly found guest travel, venue pricing, elevation concerns, final estimates to be high. We switched to the east coast and found this venue. By the end, we both said no venue in Colorado, the Rockies or PNW could have matched our Longleaf Vineyards experience. Longleaf works directly with previous partnering vendors, making wedding day easy and smooth because the team knows each other. Every suggestion they had was spot on what we needed. We love everything about this venue!

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Lauren and Nick, thank you so much for these kind words. Wow! We LOVE when our couples choose our Inclusive Package, and can work with our vendors that know our property so well. It does make for a much smoother experience. Congratulations again!

    Run don't walk!

    I got married a couple of weeks ago at Longleaf Vineyard and it was hands down the best venue we could have ever hoped for! All of our guests raved about how beautiful it was and how unique the space is compared to other weddings they had been to in the NC mountains. Wendy and Brian (the vineyard owners) could not have been easier to work with throughout the entire process from the first call we had introducing ourselves to the end of the night. They truly opened up their home and personal vineyard to us - one of coolest elements is that they offer a wine tasting during cocktail hour where Brian hosts guests for a tasting of their wine right outside of their home. So so cool and everyone loved it!

    Being a former wedding planner herself, Wendy knows all of the ins and outs of the business and truly helps the bride-to-be work through details that I personally would have never thought of. She was extremely organized and worked well with our other vendors - I also loved that she had standing partnerships with our baker and caterer (which were both incredible) which made it seamless from my end.

    Planning a wedding can easily turn into a full-time job and I cannot stress enough how important it is to find good partners which you will absolutely find at Longleaf Vineyards. My husband and I are forever grateful for Wendy and Brian and if you are planning a wedding in the NC mountains you MUST check them out!

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Haley! We absolutely loved hosting you and Kevin, and your family/friends for your special day!! We wish you much love and happiness, and you will forever be a part of LV's family!

    Perfect Venue!

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Longleaf Vineyard. If you are looking for a wedding venue in the mountains with a vineyard, look no further! Our Longleaf wedding was an absolute dream. From the stunning views to the attention to detail, our day was perfect. Wendy & Brian are a pleasure to work with. Wendy was easy to communicate with and made sure nothing was overlooked. I knew on the day of the wedding they had everything under control and I could just relax and enjoy the day! I can't recommend Longleaf enough!!

    Best venue ever

    Wow where do I even start. Obviously the views are why we were interested in this location. I also did not want a rustic look so I loved the tent with chandeliers. Then we visited and met Wendy and Brian and then it was a no brainer. Wendy was so helpful and organized throughout the entire process. She was also a wedding planner previously and knows all the best vendors. The day went off without a hitch. Everyone said it was the most beautiful wedding they have ever been to. Highly recommend!

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Chelsea...thank you so much for your kind words. It was such a pleasure working with you to create your dream wedding. The tent looked fabulous for your reception...thanks to your vision and choice of vendors (Flora!!). And Brian had so much fun in the wine cellar with your guests! We wish you and Zach so many years of love and happiness!!

    Longleaf Vineyard - The Perfect Venue

    Longleaf Vineyard in Marshall, North Carolina was absolutely a dream wedding for my daughter's wedding. Wendy was so good to work with, very organized and we knew she wanted us to have the best experience on your wedding day! The venue has the most beautiful setting and a smooth flow from your ceremony to the send off. It was the perfect choice and couldn't have turned out more exceptional. Our wedding was a dream come true because she wanted you to live through your wedding day and not worry about all the details. You will have a dream wedding if you choose to go with Wendy at Longleaf Vineyard! Love Love this place!!

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words! It was such a pleasure working with you and your family to create this special day for Caroline and Noah. It was such a beautiful day for them, and I can't wait to see more photos! We are thrilled to have your family join our Longleaf Vineyard family.

    Longleaf Vineyard is the PERFECT venue!

    I cannot say enough good things about Longleaf Vineyard and its amazing owners. We had our wedding on July 24th and it was such a beautiful and intimate space for our special day! Wendy and her husband are incredibly kind and supportive through the entire wedding planning process and do a fantastic job at making sure things go smoothly on your wedding day! It poured rain for the first part of our big day and Wendy was hard at work drying the sidewalks and chairs, taking care to make sure the venue stayed comfortable for our guests!!! The wine is also the best wine we've ever had and our guests said the same! You couldn't ask for a better venue, it's truly gorgeous and a place you'll never forget!

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Thank you for sharing your experience, Sarah. We are so happy to hear that you had a fabulous day, in spite of the weather. I'm so glad you were able to marry outside and get such beautiful photos to document your special day. Best wishes for a lifetime of love and happiness as Mr and Mrs Hartz!

    Beautiful venue

    Longleaf Vineyards won’t disappoint you! The view is breath taking and the owners do an amazing job at up keeping the property and hosting weddings. Our guests loved everything about the venue and it’s great to be able to have the ceremony and reception at one location. They helped us through a postponement due to Covid and made sure the process was smooth. Highly recommend this venue!

    Dreamy October Wedding

    Wendy and Brian are amazing. When we first met them in the summer of 2019 we knew the venue was perfect for us. Through all of the covid changes they stood by my side and encourage my vision for a small wedding with an extended cocktail hour. It was everything I could have dreamt of and more.

    Perfect Fall Wedding Venue

    WOW, where do I begin? My husband and I started looking early for venues around Asheville because we knew October weddings booked up quickly. Something about this venue resonated with me, even from just looking at the photos online! We decided to "blind book" and decided that we would just go for it. We are SO happy that we did - once we got a chance to visit the venue we realized we had made the best decision possible for our dream wedding. Wendy and Brian were so accommodating, helpful and knowledgeable about their venue and wedding day expectations. Longleaf's wines are so delicious; I added on the wine tasting cellar to my package so that my guests could try all of the wines with Brian! He gave them information on each wine as they tasted. The venue has the flexibility of being all outdoors, however there are bride and grooms cottages, a pavilion for the bar, and of course a covered tent for dinner. The backdrop is also breathtaking, Wendy and Brian even let you take your wedding photos in the vineyard! One of the best parts is that Longleaf has their own specific wedding planner, Jennifer Russ, who I would say you absolutely need to hire for your day. Jenn was such an incredible communicator, always organized, and in the end she took all the ideas I had been telling her and turned them into a reality. All in all I would say if you are looking for a venue around Asheville, look no further than Longleaf Vineyard and Jennifer Russ! Two of the best choices I've made thus far in life!

    Beautiful Views / Romantic Vineyard!

    Romantic venue for a wedding- incredible views, beautiful vineyard, spacious areas for guests to wonder - to gather/celebrate or to find a quiet place to take in the views. And, of course – great wine. We looked at a lot of venues but knew Longleaf was it from the moment we visited. I especially liked the various areas (pavilion, tent, lawn) and other open space to roam. Choices are available if you prefer to take more of an active role in planning or of you prefer the all-inclusive option so that depends on your personality/availability. Wendy offered recommendations, prompt at answering emails and she and her and her husband Brain were hands on the wedding day to ensure all went smoothly. The venue was perfect for our daughter’s wedding.

    Incredible Views and Amazing Owners

    We are grateful that our forever began at the beautiful Longleaf Vineyard! Not only are the views of the Appalachian mountains breathtaking, Wendy and Brian (owners) were incredible to work with. I was an out of state bride and they made it easy to plan our day from afar. I highly recommend booking here for your wedding! I wouldn’t change a thing.

    Perfect Venue, Amazing Owners

    We just had our wedding here and first and foremost- Wendy and her husband are amazing people. They’re so nice and friendly and you can tell they really care about your wedding. They will go out of their way to make sure you get everything you need. As for the venue itself- it truly is in unique place. You could not ask for a better place to get married! Would highly recommend having your wedding here, it definitely made ours SO special!

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Brandon and Mallory,
    Thank you so much for your kind words! It was such an honor to host your wedding at Longleaf Vineyard. We are thrilled that you thoroughly enjoyed your day, and wish you many years of wedded bliss!
    Cheers!
    Wendy & Brian

    Exceptional Views, Unparalleled Service

    The views are breathtaking and provide the scene wedding the bride has been dreaming of since they were a little girl. However, service, flexibility, adaptability, customer responsiveness, and the attention to detail make the entire day the perfect fairytale. As the Mother of the Bride for a wedding on May 17, 2019, it is my pleasure to give Wendy and Brian 10 stars (the official scale ends at 5 stars) for location, customer support, service, kindness, responsiveness, and their focus on the little things that make a wedding day memorable. Complete with a private cottage for the bridal party and separate one for the groom, the amenities provide comfortable accommodations for pre-ceremony activities. Separate locations for the cocktail hour and dinner helped to ensure a smooth transition between events. Wendy and Brian were truly amazing and I strongly recommend this venue. The only disappointment was that it went too quickly!

    Longleaf Vineyard is a hidden gem!

    The amazing mountain top views, the scenery and vibrant colors, and the quality of service provided by Wendy and Brian, made Longleaf Vineyard the best choice for our fall wedding! Tucked away in Marshall, North Carolina, Longleaf Vineyard is a hidden gem every bride deserves to find! We got married November 2019 and our guests are still raving about Longleaf Vineyard’s mountain top views. We've unofficially won the award for " Most Breathtaking Wedding Venue". We booked the venue sight unseen (and from out of state) but Wendy and Brian were so easy to work with. They were happy to help and provided what they could to bring our vision to the big day. Wendy’s wedding planning experience was so helpful throughout the wedding planning process and ensured that our dream wedding went off without a hitch. And let’s not forget the wine! Longleaf Vineyard has a great selection of wine for every kind of taste that shows up to the party. We are so happy we chose Longleaf Vineyard as the venue for our dream wedding! 10 out of 10 would recommend!

    Gorgeous venue!

    I adored this venue from the moment I saw it, and the second I talked with Wendy! The venue is so scenic and Wendy was a huge help throughout the planning process. My husband and I could not have pictured a more perfect place to tie the knot and are so thankful to Longleaf for allowing us the opportunity.
    I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the area! You get almost 360 degree views of mountains, delicious local beer and wine options (Longleaf's wine is SO GOOD) and plenty of vendor suggestions to help make sure the day goes off without a hitch.

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Thank you for your review Becca. It was such a pleasure having you and Brandon celebrate your wedding day with us! We love sharing our property for such happy occasions, and I'm thrilled when our couples can look back on their day and feel that it was stress free. Brian and I wish you many years of happiness as Mr and Mrs Hodnett!

    The venue is beyond gorgeous - you just can't beat that amazing mountain view! The layout was perfect for our 100-person wedding - from the ceremony space with incredible mountain and vineyard views, to the cocktail hour pavilion, to the new tent with chairs/tables included. All of our guests were raving about what a beautiful venue it was, and our pictures look incredible! We loved that it had a secluded feel, yet was still close in proximity to the Asheville area. Wendy was so helpful throughout the process, and has been working hard on renovations to make the vineyard look its best. We highly recommend Longleaf Vineyard to anyone looking to get married here. Thank you Wendy and Brian for hosting our perfect day! We can't wait to come back!

    Amazing views that will wow your guests

    Amazing venue. The scenery is incredible. Our photos ending up turning out amazing with the gorgeous backdrop.

    Wendy is a former event planner and that came in handy when planning. If you didn't think of it, you had time to make the right decision for you with the timeline she sets in the contract.

    Only negative can be location. About 25 minutes away from Asheville so transportation for your guests needs to be considered but it is worth it. You can see the city from the wedding arch on a clear day!

    Gorgeous views, fun venue.

    Longleaf Vineyard was absolutely perfect for our wedding. The view was the icing on the cake, but there are so many great things about this place. The owners, Wendy and Brian are so incredibly nice and very easy to work with. I love that there were multiple areas in which guests could hang out and take pictures. It’s a great place for those looking for an outdoor venue, but don’t want to d the typical barn. It was a perfect day and I’m very thankful that I chose the right place!

    Longleaf Vineyard's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Hannah. We loved having you and Drew celebrate your wedding day with us at Longleaf Vineyard!! It was a pleasure getting to know you both, and we hope you'll visit when you are in the Asheville area. Cheers! Wendy & Brian

    Amazing Views

    Longleaf is one of the most beautiful places to get married! We did their elopement package with just our immediate family and it was everything we could have ever hoped for! The view is amazing! Wendy and Brian were so kind and helpful! Allowed us to come several times to check out the place (views, music, etc). They are some amazing people who just want your wedding to be magical! Ours was!! Great, Great place!!!

    Amazing!

    We had our wedding at longleaf vineyard this June, and we could not have asked for a more perfect night. Wendy is amazing and made our wedding planning process so much easier. She also was an incredible help during the event. I have nothing but good things to say about the venue and owners.

    Longleaf Vineyard: Perfect view and perfect owners

    If I could rate Wendy and Longleaf Vineyard with 1000 stars I would!
    Wendy and her husband are the sweetest people I had the pleasure of working with during my 13 month engagement. Wendy is dedicated to her clients to make sure that the day is everything the bride and groom imagined and more. On my big day we somehow forgot to pick up the wedding cake. As the bride I was FREAKING out. Without hesitation, Wendy jumps in her car and goes to pick up our cake while our ceremony goes on without a hitch. I highly recommend Longleaf Vineyards, the view and the owner's wonderful hospitality make that venue absolute perfection I wouldn't have had my wedding day any where else.
