Incredible!

Absolutely amazing wedding venue! My husband's and my entire immediate families and our maid of and man of honor were all able to stay at the venue for our entire wedding weekend which took so much of the stress and running around out of our wedding weekend. On-site wedding coordinator is with you every step of the way and will do as much or as little as you'd like. Catering was delicious. Recommended a cake baker who could make a beautiful and delicious wedding cake. Photography was incredible...stunning fall photos that arrived to our home address within a week of our wedding date. Everything was done on time and our wedding was flawless! For everything that you get with the wedding package, it is insanely affordable! For the quality of the services that we received, I would have paid twice what I paid if I did it anywhere else. Loved everything about our wedding thanks to the work done by the staff at Sleepy Hollow.

I fell in love with Sleepy Hollow as soon as I saw it. It was everything we wanted for our wedding weekend: casual, laid back, homey and welcoming. Our guests loved the venue and by the end of the weekend, we were one big family. Danielle is phenomenal at what she does, keeping everything on track, starting with planning and ending with the wedding and reception. Danrae and Clayton are welcoming and all do everything to ensure every wedding a total success. We felt welcomed, pampered and cared for. I highly recommend Sleepy Hollow Inn and Event Center to anyone and everyone. We have made the best memories!!

Absolutely Amazing!

Sleepy Hollow was a wonderful place to have our wedding! The venue has the perfect blend of the gorgeous outdoors, the historical feel of the architecture, and the modern day touches of the reception space. We couldn't have asked for a better place to have our big day! The staff at Sleepy Hollow were great too! Danielle helped make this wedding run smoothly from the planning before hand to the clean up afterwards. We are so grateful to have found this wonderful place!

Gorgeous day at Sleepy Hollow

The venue was beautiful with all the trees surrounding the property. It was nice that the lodging, ceremony and reception was all in one place. Danielle did a great job taking care of all the details so we didn't have to worry about them.

We are so glad we chose Sleepy Hollow! From the moment we first contacted them, they responded quickly and got us all the information we needed to make our decision. We planned the entire wedding from Washington, D.C. sight unseen, and Danielle was an amazing wedding coordinator. She sent us reminders of when big ticket decisions needed to be made, and was extremely accommodating when changes needed to be made. Her friendly disposition, which was evident even through mostly email conversation, made the planning process stress free! On the day of the wedding, everything went off without a hitch: ceremony was great, food was great, bartender was great, DJ was great (Dean Campbell). Danielle was there throughout conducting the magical orchestra :) And as an extra surprise bonus, Danrae, the property manager took beautiful photos of the ceremony from an awesome angle on the balcony.

If you are looking for an all-inclusive, stress free, beautiful wedding option, Sleepy Hollow is the place for you! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience! Thank you, Sleepy Hollow!

Selecting Sleepy Hollow as our daughter's wedding venue was the best decision ever! The staff, accommodations and site were perfect. Danielle was our rock from the beginning of the planning to the closure of the event. Danrae is not only an excellent photographer but an awesome hostess as well. Amy made sure everything was in place and ready. They have enlisted the best vendors in the area and we could not have been more pleased with every detail! Thank you for helping make MC's wedding not only the best day ever, but the best weekend ever.

I was diagnosed with celiac during the wedding planning process and they could not have been more accommodating! My entire reception menu was made gluten free and they even made gluten free pancakes for me the next day. I was also allowed to have my dog stay with me in the bridal suite and include him in the ceremony.

The staff at Sleepy Hollow Inn & Event Center went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. They made the wedding planning process as stress-less as possible, while still allowing us to incorporate our own vision and ideas. Having a venue that includes so much made things so much easier, and Danielle is absolutely a delight to work with. She always responded to e-mails in a timely (practically immediate) manner, and never seemed annoyed by questions, no matter how small! Our wedding day was perfect, and I cannot thank them enough for all they did for us! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone.

My daughter just got married at Sleepy Hollow and we had an amazing experience. Danielle answered all our questions quickly and was an invaluable coordinator of the wedding process. She took as much stress away from us and made everything run smoothly. Danrae is a very talented photographer and has the patience of a saint! She does her best to please even the pickiest of brides! The facility is gorgeous and the landscape is beautiful! I am so glad we chose Sleepy Hollow for the wedding and the two families got to spend quality time together getting to know each other. Weddings are expensive but you get a lot for your money at Sleepy Hollow!!!

Danielle was a HUGE help in the whole wedding planning process. From being quick to respond to any question, helping us stick to timelines, and coordinating all of our wedding party for the day of, Danielle was a stellar coordinator from the start. The event center itself is beautiful and a great space for those couples wanting a smaller wedding. If you want a stress-free wedding planning experience, this is the inclusive package that will meet all of your expectations!

Sleepy Hollow was great, it was loved by us and all of our guests. Danielle was so helpful and knowledgeable about everything wedding. She made the planning and the actual day almost effortless. Danrae did a great job with the photography all my photos turned out perfect. We really liked being able to hold the rehearsal, wedding, and reception all in one place. Not to mention that a lot of our out of town guest were able to stay at the inn as well. The place was very professional and they made everyone feel at home. We had a great experience with the people that work there and the venue itself. I would recommend Sleepy Hollow to anyone who is getting married, the packages include everything from flowers and cake to photography and lodging. Thanks Sleepy Hollow for making our wedding everything we wanted it to be!

My husband and I had an awesome experience booking this service. The price was unbeatable for the quality of service that we received. Danrae's creativity throughout our photo sessions made the times even more memorable and we appreciated having her around.

This photography service was second to none, as the reasonable pricing paired with the exquisite quality leads to a superior experience that I would highly recommend to anyone. My wife and I truly were able to enjoy our wedding as Danrae took charge of poses and creative ideas that us and the whole wedding party had fun with. I'm thankful to have her as our photographer and hope that many others get to experience this as well.

As mother of the groom I couldn't be more pleased with Sleepy Hollow Inn & Event Center WNC Mountains. The photographer was wonderful. She was happy to accomodate us on any pictures we needed of this very special day. The pictures are beautiful and amazing and I have had a great time showing them off to family, friends and coworkers. I definitely recommend them to anyone planning a very special day.

I just got married at Sleepy Hollow on 5/26/17 and the entire team went above and beyond to ensure that my husband, Matt, and I would have the wedding of our dreams! I keep saying that it was everything we hoped for and more! We enjoyed our wedding eve dinner, loved the woodsy setting of our private ceremony, and had more fun at the reception than we ever could have imagined! The decor was beautiful, all the food tasty, and the music exactly what we ordered. Matt and I also appreciate the extreme amount of attention everyone at Sleepy Hollow put into making sure we and our guests were always taken care of.

Everything about the two-night event was truly magical - everyone enjoyed staying together in the beautiful house and kept saying how much fun everything about the wedding was. We chose Sleepy Hollow as our wedding venue for the beautiful atmosphere and intimate setting it could provide for our small wedding. We wanted something that was a relaxed celebration of togetherness for everyone in attendance, and we got exactly that. Again, we couldn't be happier, and recommend this venue to anyone looking for a truly unique venue to host their wedding.

Sleepy Hollow Inn & Event Center's reply:

Gretchen, your wedding was truly Magical! I love that you & Matt chose a completely private location that we have never used before!- How special :)
Thank you again for the kind words, they are very much appreciated. Best wishes to a future full of nothing but happiness for the both of you!

Everything was wonderful!! I can't stress that enough. We had a great time and our guests loved the accommodations and have a wonderful time at the wedding! Everyone was so on top of everything and made the day fly by with no issues (if there were it never got back to me :) ) I also loved that Danielle changed the wedding intro at the last minute to Bitter Sweet Symphony, little did she know that that is one of my all time favorite songs. :) my sister thought it was my choice and was surprised when it also came on. I wish the day could have lasted longer because it was all truly amazing.

Sleepy Hollow Inn & Event Center's reply:

Katie and Aaron, thank you so much for such a wonderful review and for also allowing to be part of your day. Enjoyed meeting your families and we wish you a wonderful future with your new blended family. Adorable. Danrae, Danielle, and Staff at Sleepy Hollow

This place was FANTASTIC!! When I was looking for venues, there wasn't a single place that could compete with what Sleepy Hollow had to offer. An all inclusive package that included lodging, DJ, catering, cake and floral allowances, decorations, wedding coordinator, and many other things that made planning my wedding a million times easier. I planned my wedding from Oregon and did not have the money to fly back and forth multiple times to try/see/sample things. Thankfully I had friends in Asheville, and they were able to tour the place for me. After that, I put my faith in Danielle and her knowledge, and I was never let down. Without her, I would have been lost! She was very quick to respond to my many emails and (sometimes ridiculous) questions. She was super patient the day of and was a critical part in making everything go smoothly. I can not imagine how the day could have gone any better!

The house itself is amazing! It's much bigger than it looks from the outside and the internet can not do it justice. Each room is unique and there is plenty of room for all the guests. The event center is gorgeous and it was super convenient to have the ceremony, reception, and lodging all right there. You can't go wrong with choosing this venue!

Sleepy Hollow Inn & Event Center's reply:

Misty and John. Thank you so very much for your kind review. It certainly makes us feel great when we receive such wonderful feedback. Hope you have a wonderful future together.

Our wedding party raved the whole time about how beautiful it was at the venue, and the accommodations were amazing. Everyone had their own privacy and bathrooms which made the sleeping arrangements a breeze. Danielle and Danrae went above and beyond in answering all our questions and making sure every detail was addressed. I would recommend Sleepy Hollow to any couple!!
