Nichols Heir was the epitome of modern elegance. When choosing to get married in the mountains, we wanted a place that provided a stunning view, but also matched our classic, elegant vibe. Nichols Heir did that perfectly. The Garden was the perfect spot to hold our ceremony and provided the most remarkable mountain backdrop. The Glass House was exactly what we wanted for an intimate, cozy reception with our guests that still looked modern and elegant for our formal wedding. Nichols Heir was amazing to work with, they responded promptly to any and all questions that we had. We had a destination wedding, so we were doing everything from afar, and they made it so easy. When we were on site, the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. They jumped in to assist with setup and made our guests feel welcome. They also provided umbrellas and towels when there was a last minute rain shower before our ceremony. They were flexible and accommodating and professional at every step, and we had the best experience with them as our wedding venue!

Nichols Heir was the PERFECT venue for my wedding. Living in East Tennessee my options felt somewhat limited for what I wanted: not a barn, mountain views, modern feel. When we found Nichols Heir they were still under construction but I could see the vision straight away. Every part of the space has been carefully considered and though through which made my experience all that much better. The staff were so helpful and kind.

We are so thankful for Nichols Heir and its staff for helping our special day be truly memorable. My husband, Andoni, and I got married at the Glass House in October 2024. The nature surrounding the venue made the day so magical. We’re thankful to have had an experienced wedding day of coordinator as well as experience venue staff that were willing to step in and help with any situation. Thank you to Marlie, Braden, and the rest of the Nichols Heir staff! Best, Brittany

I would have my wedding here over and over again on any day, in any season. This venue is absolutely STUNNING. My husband and I held our ceremony in The Glass House and reception in The Grand Hall and it was so perfect. The venue has so many accommodations: incredibly spacious bridal & groom suites, on-site restrooms, vendor prep kitchen, furniture & heater & misc rentals, and MORE. The venues are so photogenic, clean, and outright lovely. We also used the NH Downtown space for our welcome dinner and it was perfect!
The owners are SO kind and incredibly helpful. There was a massive snowstorm the weekend of our wedding and the venue owners and staff were the most calming people ever. They made sure the grounds were safe and beautiful for our snowy winter wedding.
The staff is very communicative and quick to get back to you with any questions or concerns leading up to the big day.
I hope I get to attend a wedding here myself one day! Everything about it is perfect!

The Nichols Heir venue is truly a dream come true!! All of our guests can’t stop talking about how beautiful the Glass House was and how much it added to our perfect day.
Nichols Heir encompasses multiple picturesque areas for both the ceremony and reception, including the enchanting Garden with breathtaking views, the elegant Glass House and the majestic Grand Hall. We held our ceremony on the lower patio which was simply stunning and the reception in the Glass House which made for a timeless backdrop with our family and friends. The patio outside the Glass House was perfect for cocktail hour and dancing under the stars. Not only is the venue absolutely gorgeous, it comes with countless options included in the cost such as various table sizes, chair styles and colors, and much more.
The owner, Larry McNutt, and his team have thought of everything!! The bridal suite is one of a kind with luxurious hair stylist chairs and light up makeup mirrors, providing lots of space for you and your bridesmaids to get ready and capture stunning photographs. The grooms' suite is equally impressive with televisions, a poker table, shuffleboard table, a shower, kitchen, bar, and more.
The true gem of Nichols Heir is its exceptional staff, particularly Savannah Mynatt, who went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was flawless. The venue also provided a dedicated team of staff members on the big day to handle setup, cleanup, parking, and any other needs. Additionally, they offer lodging recommendations for the wedding party, family, and guests, making the planning process seamless with the help of Sunny Smith.
Working with the preferred vendor list was a breeze, connecting us with a fantastic team of vendors!! The level of care and attention we received at Nichols Heir is over the top, and I cannot recommend this venue enough!!! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and the Nichols Heir staff ensured the day ran flawlessly, even with a last minute change in ceremony plans. Don’t hesitate – book your date at Nichols Heir before they fill up!

Working with Nichols Heir was literally a dream! After a nightmare situation with the last venue (they closed and no one told us, we found out 4 months later by driving by), Nichols Heir really came in and saved the day.
Not only is Megan Mynatt an angel, their whole team is as well! Savannah Mynatt really helped with curating a perfect look for the venue (chairs, tables, rentals- all which the venue has btw). Sunny Smith was amazing with helping all of us with lodging- making sure everyone was comfortable and close to the venue! They actually own multiple cabins, yurts, treehouses in the area and all are less than 15 mins from the venue! Larry McNutt (the owner) even came down to help on our special day to drive the shuttle bus! They had multiple people (10-15) there to help make sure they day went smoothly! They helped with everything from moving the tables and chairs to making sure the guests knew where the bathrooms were to helping the vendors! Anything that was needed, the Nichols Heir team made sure it was taken care of!
Now the venue itself is GORGEOUS! We got married at The Garden: a beautiful outdoor area that over looks the mountains. The reception was followed in the Glass House. It is COMPLETELY glass (one of only 20 in the United States!). It is fully air conditioned, so everyone was comfortable the entire day! You are able to customize everything with their multiple options of table and chairs to fit with your theme and color scheme (we went the more boho look).
Just as good as the venue is the bridal suite and the grooms lounge! The spacious bridal suite was so comfy with its own private bathroom/changing area, salon chairs and light mirrors, multiple plush couches and chairs, and of course the massive mirror perfect for photo ops! It was such a great time getting ready in there with all my girls! It is truly a time I will treasure forever! The boys LOVED the grooms lounge. They had their own bar, shuffle board, poker table, tv- they didn’t want to wedding to start yet lol!
Again, I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH on how amazing Nichols Heir was! They were with me every step of the way! They truly care about what they do. They were so passionate about making the day everything I ever dreamed of. They went above and beyond to make the day go off without a hitch and made it the best day of our lives! Words cannot describe how thankful and grateful I am to have my wedding at Nichols Heir!

Wow just Wow! We got married at the Nichols Heir estate on May 20th of 2023 in their new garden area. It was absolutely stunning. I started working with the Nichols Heir team in October of 2022 to plan our big day and they were absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish. Friendly and Professional - the ultimate combination. They treated me like an absolute princess which is how I felt walking down the aisle at this gorgeous venue. The Bridal Suite was perfect for getting ready and we had plenty of room. Our pictures overlooking the mountain, under the big tree and walking down the walkway with all of the beautiful pops of color and flowers truly made for the perfect day. Our photographer even mentioned how this was such a beautiful property and he enjoyed shooting our wedding. We truly had such a perfect experience at Nichols Heir, would highly recommend this wedding venue to anyone. Thanks to the Nichols Heir team for making our dreams come true. Andrea Morgan - Columbus, Ohio (destination wedding). XOXO
