    AMAZING Wedding Experience

    Our daughter's wedding venue was The Farm at Old Edwards, and it is absolutely breathtaking! Old Edwards knows what they're doing and they do it extremely well. Sophie, the Catering and Events Manager, worked with us throughout the planning process to ensure that no detail was missed. She was always responsive and accommodating, and she provided all the information we needed to make decisions regarding wedding and reception setup, scheduling, food and beverage, etc. Her experience and expertise were invaluable to us. She and all of the staff were so easy to work with. And Chef Huerta provided an AMAZING spread throughout the evening. We had numerous guests tell us afterwards that the food was the best they had...

    December Wedding at Old Edwards

    My Husband and I absolutely love Highlands, NC and the Old Edwards Inn event planners - this place holds such a special place in our hearts and is where Jake proposed last year so we knew it was a place we wanted to bring all of our friends and family to celebrate our wedding weekend. We first met with Gabby Stone at the Old Edwards Inn wedding and banquet planning center, she was (and continued to be) so accommodating and showed us every single venue Old Edwards has to offer. She spent hours with us during our first meeting and really cared about getting to know Jake and I as a couple. She helped us envision our wedding day...

    Perfect venue

    Highlands is one of my favorite places in the world, and The Farm at Old Edwards was truly the most beautiful wedding venue. Everything was perfect, from the precious house where the bridal party got ready, to the grounds, to the Orchard House for the ceremony, the Orchard for cocktail house, and the barn for the reception. The food was outstanding, as was the wonderful Old Edwards team. The Old Edwards team was so wonderful to work with, especially during covid when we had to reschedule and slash our numbers by over half. I could not recommend this venue more highly (and wish we could do it all over again, because it was the best day of my life).

    Beautiful wedding venue with perfect staff

    We got married at the Hutchinson House with 50 guests. Everything was absolutely perfect from beginning to end. Jessica Silver was so patient with me and went over all the options over many different phone calls. :) Once we made the decision to get married at the Hutchinson House, Amy Redl helped us execute all of the details. We do not live in North Carolina, and having Amy and the Old Edwards team handling everything gave us so much peace of mind. They truly think of every detail. Old Edwards worked seamlessly with our other vendors to make sure everything came together and our wedding was perfect. We cannot recommend getting married here enough!!!

    Spectacular

    Elizabeth Judy and the staff at Old Edwards Inn made our special day absolutely perfect. We wanted a custom elopement type wedding and they certainly delivered. We stayed in the newly built Luxury Suite and definitely felt like a king and queen for the weekend. Heated floors in the bathroom!! There are so many great things to say. We enjoyed massages at the spa. I had my make up done at the salon. We had our happy hour at Hummingbird Lounge. The ceremony took place on the Croquet Lawn. We enjoyed time by the pool. It was just such a perfect day and the staff at Old Edwards made that happen for us!

    If I could give Old Edwards 10 stars I would. They were amazing and far exceeded my expectations. I had a small wedding and anticipated being treated good but I was treated exceptionally well, as if my wedding was the only one that mattered. I am so glad we chose to have our wedding with them. They most certainly know what they're doing. I can't imagine my wedding be anymore beautiful than it was. Thank you so much!

    Excellent service

    We had our daughter’s wedding at the Piermont Cottage owned by Old Edwards. Everything was just as we had hoped for and planned for.
    The arbor was covered in roses. The lawns were perfect. Food was great. They did an all gluten free menu. Catering manager, Marina, was so helpful. Can’t say enough good about the event.

    Dream Wedding!

    I can’t say enough good things about Old Edwards! We are based in Boston and decided to have a destination wedding at the Farm at Old Edwards in October 2022. We were a bit nervous planning our wedding from afar, but Old Edwards not only made the process and communication super easy, but they left us and our guests in awe on our big day. We worked closely with Sophie - she was supremely organized and responsive. I wanted our reception hall to look like Hogwarts and Sophie bent over backwards to help us (and our vendors) realize that vision. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and the food and drink were out of this world - a month...

    A wonderful wedding weekend at Old Edwards

    The team at Old Edwards is top notch and dedicated to ensuring a perfect wedding experience! Most of our communications was with Sophie Delany, who was so responsive, professional, patient and kind in every way throughout the months of planning. During the actual wedding weekend she went out of her way to be there for us, guiding us each day so that the bride and groom, and our guests had the best experience possible. I really appreciate that we could rely on her experience to make many of our decisions easier. Thank you Sophie -- and thank you also to the many other members of your team who were just wonderful!

    This is one pretty amazing place to have a wedding! My husband and I got married at the Farm, and it's probably one of the most beautiful spaces I've personally ever seen. I feel lucky to have been able to have my wedding there.

    This was the first and only venue my parents and I visited. We did have a slight hesitation since we knew Highlands wasn't easy to get to by way of air... and the prices of the rooms were a lot to ask of our guests. But we decided to go with it anyway knowing that some people just might not be able to be there. We ended with a great turn out, and...

    My fiance and I began looking for a serene mountain destination for our wedding about a year ago. We began our search online and started looking in the Asheville area. Low and behold, we stumbled upon a website for the Old Edwards Inn and Spa. The same night, we saw a commercial on the travel channel and an ad in my The Knot North Carolina magazine.

    We were able to make our way to Highlands in March and discovered that Old Edwards Inn was even better in person than on the website---which unbelievable considering we fell in love with the inn from the pictures and videos that we had viewed on their website.

    We worked with...

    Extraordinary location for the ceremony and reception. Pricey but the staff (Thanks Keri!!!!) is incredibly helpful and flexible and they take care of so much it makes planning seem easy and the results were incredible. Absolute pleasure working with Chef Johannes Klapdohr who created a menu with us that was the best I have ever had at a wedding by far. Thanks again to the whole crew out there and do not hesitate to book with them!!!!

    We looked at a number of options for venues ahead of time and couldn't be happier that we selected Old Edwards- they provided a unique and beautiful setting, great wedding planning services, an incredible event space, and the food was amazing.
    The wedding planning services were great. We loved that Old Edwards was able to provide so many services in house (food, linens, sound, dance floor, tables and chairs, etc), and loved that they really worked to make our wedding unique and different. During the weekend, we were pleased with the positive attitude of the entire staff and their ability to react to any problems real time. They really went above and beyond... We were also impressed that the...

    Love the OEI and the Farm. It was an amazing experience. The Chef is so talented. My friends are still raving about the food. My bridesmaids and I loved renting the farmhouse and getting dressed out there. I highly suggest doing that but agree with another review-er that it's more fun to stay in town for the actual hotel rooms. Make sure to book rooms and vendors EARLY because things book up very fast!! :)

    Perfect Venue

    The Farm at Old Edwards Inn was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding. Each venue – from the Orchard House, to the Orchard, to the Pavilion – are all stunningly beautiful, only made better by the large glass doors and lush greenery surrounding them. Piermont Cottage was the perfect place for our welcome and farewell events, but also for my family to stay at for the weekend. The food throughout the entire weekend was incredible. When it comes to weddings, Old Edwards really knows what they are doing and thought of/provided things we never even would have thought to. They made sure our wedding day ran as smoothly as possible.
