The Magnolia Weddings & Events

My husband and I got married a week ago at the Magnolia. It is a gorgeous venue! The bridal suite was perfect and did not have any issue with space (we had 10 people getting ready). We picked almost all preferred vendors and it went incredibly well. All the staff were so nice and always there to help!

Choosing the Magnolia Venue was the best wedding decision we made! From the beginning, Macey was so helpful, friendly and professional. I had so many questions all at different times of day and she always responded back quickly and was the sweetest! We live out of state so it was stressful having a destination wedding but she helped make the process seamless. The venue is more incredible than we could have imagined! It feels so secluded and intimate. It is very convenient to have a venue where your ceremony and reception can be held at the same place. We can never thank the team enough for making our special day perfect!

We got married on 8/27/24 as a destination wedding. We booked without ever seeing it in person, but we knew from the pictures it was where we needed to go. It was just as beautiful in person as it was in the photos. The bridal suite was cute and spacious for my girls and myself to get ready in. The cocktail hour space was roomy with a great view. The ceremony space is only something I could dream of. I have zero regrets about having our special day with them. Macey was always very attentive to my questions and helped our day become a reality. Our day of staff member, Chloe, was kind and sweet and helped with anything we needed. Thank you! Shawn & Kevin

My experience with the Magnolia was beyond PERFECT! I could never thank Macey and her staff for going above and beyond, as always, to create such a beautiful wedding venue with such caring staff! I have been eyeballing this venue since before my engagement. I was beyond THANKFUL and BLESSED to be able to have had my wedding at the absolute most beautiful venue to ever exist!

We got married in July and the venue was absolutely perfect! They were also so easy to work with and helpful with any questions that came up. Thank you for making our day so perfect!

We came across The Magnolia while researching venues in Tennessee for our destination wedding, and after speaking with Macey we booked it without hesitation and without even seeing it in person. We can honestly say it was by far the best decision we made! The space is laid out perfectly, with covered/uncovered and indoor/outdoor options, and the views are truly unmatched! Macey was kind, professional, and quick to respond. She provided recommendations for everything from vendors to lodging, which was extremely helpful. The Magnolia will forever hold a very special place in our hearts. Thank you!

This venue was not only absolutely gorgeous, but they were there to answer questions and offer helpful information every step along the way. All of our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was. People loved exploring it so much so that we barely needed any decor for cocktail hour. Beautiful spots for couples photos, recommend bringing an alternate pair of shoes for some of them.

I cannot recommend this venue enough! The staff was so helpful and the view is incredible. The bridal suite is beautiful and the building is well kept. My husband and I truly had the best day.

What an absolutely stunning, clean, and intimate wedding venue! We could not have asked for anything better for our special day. The grounds are gorgeous and well kept. Macey, the venue coordinator was very friendly, professional, and responsive to all messages. The venue assistant, Renee, and the security guard were very attentive, professional, and great to work with. Though our wedding was not that long ago, guests are still talking about the beautiful venue, the amazing views, and the awesome staff.

We had our destination wedding at the Magnolia on 04/24/23. The location was very intimate and perfect for our smaller wedding of 55 guests. We were blessed with a beautiful, clear spring day (although we would have been just as happy with some “smoke” on the mountains!). The views were so beautiful, especially around sunset. We could tell our guests loved the location and received so many compliments afterwards on the venue. We worked with Macey leading up to the event and Elizabeth was there on the day of. Both were very professional to work with. Thank you to the Magnolia team! - Fran and Doug Floyd

"Our wedding at The Magnolia Venue was absolutely picturesque! Even after our first conversation with them, we knew this staff and the venue would be a perfect fit for us. They were incredibly kind and really inclusive of us as an LGBTQ+ couple. Planning a wedding as a same-sex couple can be hard, but they were there to help us and answer questions through the whole process. They provided an amazing recommended vendors list, too. The venue is stunning and we're so glad we picked The Magnolia!"

My fiancé and I always knew that when we got married we wanted to have a destination wedding in the mountains. We had always thought that it would be in Asheville, North Carolina because we just associated that area with mountains. When we got engaged and I began looking for venues I became disappointed when I didn’t love any of the venues that I saw online in Asheville. But luckily, about 1.5 hours away from Asheville is a place that my fiancé and I had never even heard of… Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. I stumbled across The Magnolia online and from the moment I saw it I was in awe. I told my fiancé that we HAD to schedule a trip to go see the venue. My now husband is NOT someone who is spontaneous or someone who says yes to something right away. He likes to think long and hard about things (thus the reason we were dating for 8 years before getting married, lol), but the moment we saw The Magnolia in person he said to me “we are definitely getting married here”. The staff at The Magnolia were incredible, always available to answer questions when I had them, and they helped to make our day so perfect. They even gave us the sweetest wedding gift, a custom charcuterie board that will always remind us of the best day of our lives. The list of vendors that they recommended were such a huge help, and we hired all of our vendors from that list and each and every one of them were incredible! I truly believe our wedding day wouldn’t have been as special and as flawless if we didn’t have those incredible vendors. Lastly, each and every one of our wedding guests could not stop raving about the view, the venue, and the area. The amount of times I heard “this is the most beautiful wedding I’ve ever been too” made my husband and I feel like we truly chose the greatest wedding venue in the country!

Absolutely stunning! The staff was so accommodating and kind, the grounds are very well cared for, and vendor recommendations are superb. Originally booked site unseen, The Magnolia exceeded ALL of our expectations and will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

I mean wow, where do I even begin with this absolutely stunning venue! The first time I saw a picture of The Magnolia (on Pinterest of all places), I was obsessed. Macey and the Magnolia team were super communicative and made the whole process of planning a destination wedding so much easier. I also found most of our vendors through their recommended list, which was very helpful. The views are breathtaking and everything about The Magnolia is beautiful. It was the perfect size for our smaller wedding and really made our smoky mountain fall wedding dreams come true.

Perfection. The Magnolia was the perfect wedding venue for us. The Magnolia team was wonderful from beginning to end. They were accommodating and easy to communicate with. The venue was perfect the day of. With the bridal suite on site, myself and my girls were able to get ready on site and enjoy the wonderful views all day. Our wedding was a destination wedding (as it sounds like most are at The Magnolia) and they had preferred vendor lists that made everything so easy for planning a destination wedding. They have vetted vendors that are familiar with the venue and work SO well together. The pictures are amazing but it really does not even do the venue justice. It is even more glorious in person.

If you are looking to get married in the mountains this is the DREAMIEST venue and backdrop. Ever since I first saw The Magnolia online after getting engaged I knew this would be the perfect destination for our smaller sized wedding. Macey from The Magnolia was great to work with from our first messages to get pricing and schedule a venue tour all the way up to the day of the wedding. I cannot thank them enough for helping make my wedding day the best day of my life and cannot recommend them enough.

I don't know what else to say except WOW! Truly the most beautiful venue I have seen. The Magnolia was absolutely amazing with helping me plan my wedding. Macey was so helpful and her team on the day of was so sweet and helpful as well. The views are absolutely breathtaking, and make for a dreamy ceremony. The on site bridal suite was so convenient and beautiful for pictures as well. I also rented my linens from Magnolia, which was very easy. I truly cannot say enough great things about this venue and everyone who works there.

Most beautiful venue I’ve ever been to. Macey was so helpful answering any and all of my questions, Renee was super helpful setting up and helping out. All around great experience with staff and everything!

The venue was beautiful!!! The bridal suite, ceremony space, and reception hall were perfect! I highly recommend this venue! Just a heads up, the speakers in the bridal suite require an aux cord so bring that with you! :)

The Magnolia Venue was a DREAM. Our wedding was just over a month ago and I am so glad we had it here! It's absolutely breathtaking. And, the staff is SO nice and SO helpful. They even send you a list of preferred vendors when you book, so you've got somewhere to start your planning! Only thing I wish they had was an area for the men to get ready. Everything else was amazing! Well worth the trek up!

The Magnolia Venue was absolutely PERFECT for our 9/23/21 wedding. Photos can't do the view justice, TRUST ME. It's breathtaking. Macey was so friendly and responsive with my questions, and the Honeybook online website kept us so organized! All of the vendor recommendations were spot on. We had the most beautiful, FUN day and everyone was so impressed with how beautiful not only the view was, but the venue itself! From the gorgeous open-air reception hall to the comfortable bridal suite (complete with champagne, a thank you card, and snacks for us!) to the patio itself where we said our vows and danced under the stars. It was everything I dreamed of and more!

I had my wedding here on 8-4-21. My husband and I have both agreed that we couldn’t have picked a better location to have our wedding. There was rain the morning of our wedding, but there a covered area for chairs to be set up and everything went perfectly. Amazing enough, the venue looks just like the pictures you see. It’s so gorgeous!

The Magnolia is absolutely breathtaking & was the perfect spot for our wedding. Our family & guests were blown away by the views. I am a wedding planner by profession and it was amazing to be able to put all of my trust is the staff of The Magnolia for my own special day. Macey handled my 1 million questions with ease. There is real life magic in this venue, I am sure of it!

The Magnolia is stunning! If you are looking for a venue with a view of the mountains, look no further. Their vendor recommendations were spot on, and their staff was great communicating when booking, payment reminders and on the day of making sure that we had what we needed. With the mountains all around you everywhere you look, it cannot any better! The various spaces for activities are great as well from the outdoor area we used for the ceremony and dance floor, inside the main hall, the covered patio and of course the awesome bridal suite!

The Magnolia was a beautiful place to have a wedding! Unbeatable views and had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

The Magnolia Venue is the perfect place for a Smoky Mountain wedding. The venue itself is beautiful and the views are spectacular. I recently got married at the Magnolia on December 4th, 2020 and everything was perfect, even with rain in the forecast. The venue is very versatile and prepared for inclement weather. We were hoping to have our ceremony outside on the patio, but the rain wouldn't allow for that. We were able to adjust and have the ceremony still outside on the covered patio with the reception inside after. Leading up to the wedding, Macey the venue manager checked in with us many times. She sent over helpful information regarding the marriage license process, final venue reminders, and was always available if we needed to contact her. Marlie was our venue contact that was on-site for the day of the wedding and she did an awesome job getting the bridal suite ready as well as cleaning up around the venue. I highly suggest The Magnolia Venue for any event that you might have in mind. Macey is great and willing to answer any questions that you might have. The pictures are gorgeous, but in person the venue and views are breathtaking. We had a wonderful experience with The Magnolia Venue for our wedding!

The Magnolia was the absolute perfect place to have our wedding. The view and the venue were like a fairytale. Any cost is well worth having such an incredible view on your wedding day. When we first toured it, we were skeptical about driving guests up the mountain, but the shuttle made it incredibly easy. All of the vendors we worked with, most recommended by The Magnolia, were incredible and also made our day a dream come true. We stayed at the cabin right next to the venue, which made all of the day of logistics incredibly easy, and it was convenient for our wedding party to stay there with us. If you book The Magnolia, I highly recommend booking that cabin around the same time! We wanted a classic and relaxed wedding, and The Magnolia was exactly what we hoped it would be. Everyone we worked with was helpful and responsive, making our day perfect. Can’t say enough great things about The Magnolia!

Macey was a delight to work with. She answered all the questions we had in such a short turn around time. She got us all the information requested in regards to their trusted vendor recommendations, TN marriage license info, and liability insurance. She went above and beyond to make our 42 day turn around timeframe to be executed flawlessly. She and her Mom (the owners of this venue) traveled into town to see our wedding and meet us. They made us feel confident in their staff and like we were family. We could not recommend a better place to get married. If heaven were a place on Earth - this would be the place and they would be the gate keepers. Every moment was so magical. Thank you again to the Magnolia Venue team for making our dreams come true!

I found The Magnolia Venue on pinterest and knew it was exactly what I was going for with a jaw-dropping backdrop for photos! We scheduled a tour and of course fell in love with it even more in person. The team was friendly, professional, and so easy to communicate with during the planning process. The bridal suite is beautiful, air conditioned, and so dreamy for getting ready with your girls. We had the wedding of our dreams in the mountains and our guests were blown away with our venue. I highly recommend The Magnolia Venue if you are looking to get married in the Smokies. Everything about it is magical!

I had my wedding at The Magnolia and it was perfect! The venue has incredible mountain views! I loved the indoor/outdoor versatility of the reception hall.

The Magnolia Wedding Venue is even more breathtaking in person than in the pictures. Working with Millicent & the Magnolia team was easy, care-free & even reassuring during a couple small issues I had with other parts of the planning process. They answered all of our questions & sent us recommended vendors that helped in our wedding selection. I cannot praise this place enough. Your wedding will be the MOST BEAUTIFUL wedding if you choose The Magnolia as your venue!!

From day one the Magnolia team went out of their way to make our experience as perfect as possible. They scheduled us in last minute while we were in town on a spur of the moment trip, and got someone there to show us around and tell us all about what an experience with the magnolia would be like. The moment I saw the view I knew this was our venue, but it only got better as I learned more. They arranged to meet us again over Christmas vacation because at the time my daughters wheelchair accessible van was having some issues and couldn't bring it up to the venue. So they took us up in a truck. We have put off our wedding for 14 years because we have a medically fragile child. Sharing that moment on our Christmas vacation with our children couldn't have been more perfect! I had a mishap with my planner and had to let her go. I reached out to Millicent and Dean in a panic to see if they could give any input on good planners. Not only did they help me with that, but they also went out of their way to do things that I believe they didn't need to do to make it right! Everyone who works with the Magnolia has gone above and beyond from day one. The day of it was raining that morning and stopped right before we left t head up. It was very windy so tons of pine needles had fallen back down even though they just blew off the driveway. I also only know how to drive on flat land! My vehicle with my bridal party wouldn't make it up the mountain. This is something that could have ruined my day, and I did start panicking because I was scared I wouldn't get my daughter and her wheelchair up to the venue. One of my vendors called Millicent. Not a minute after I parked I swear it was like all of Pigeon Forge stopped and made sure I made it up there! Within not even 5 minutes I got a call 4 people, and they had two more options heading to me to get me up there! They are prepared for these situations! We have been up about 6-7 times since starting to plan and they work hard to keep the driveway its best and to keep improving it. Not once, even when I started to panic, did I think I should have never booked my wedding here. I'm a HUGE animal lover, and I'd seen on social media that a bride had a bear show up during their day. I wanted a bear too I got 4 bears and a raccoon! They stayed a safe distance away, but I say this to explain how prepared everyone was for it. When we realized they were there everyone from the planner to the venue was ready. We got to see them, and then they went on their merry way. For some of our guests this was their first time witnessing that and it was great! The location? I mean come on! Look at the view! The Magnolia was PERFECT for our intimate wedding. We had 20 guests, and the venue didn't take away from the intimate feel. The bridal suite was more than enough to accommodate us. That was the best morning relaxing with my closest people, sipping mimosas, getting make overs, and looking at the beautiful mountains. Everyone at the Magnolia brings an impeccable level of professionalism, but not to the point of being stuffy. I felt like I was planning all of this with a friend, and they always made me feel like the only woman in the world and no day was more important that mine. How they give everyone this is beyond me, but they do! I miss working with them!! Huge thank you to everyone at the Magnolia the day we waited 14 years for couldn't have been more perfect!

This venue is absolutely breathtaking. If you are searching for a mountain venue with jaw dropping views and where you are treated like a queen, then look no more. It is nestled in the beautiful Smoky Mountains and only a short distance from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. I highly recommend this venue! Bonus, it houses your reception too!

There are no words for this venue. It is a little slice of heaven nestled on the top of a gorgeous mountain. Our wedding was an absolute dream. The venue is pristine and nothing compares. Millicent (the owner) was nothing short of amazing and helpful and she brought us to our wedding planner who was an absolute angel. All of my wedding dreams came true on November 3, 2018. I am overjoyed and couldn’t be more thankful that we found this venue and their people!

The Magnolia made for the most breath-taking & wonderful wedding venue I could have imagined. I looked at A LOT of venues last year when I started planning my wedding & when I went to The Magnolia for the first time, I was blown away & knew it was the one. The view, the ceremony & reception spaces, and the bridal suite are all so stunningly beautiful. Our wedding turned out to be the most magical night of my life! Millicent was so helpful & accommodating throughout my wedding planning process - she was always available for a phone call or via text to answer my questions. Her & Dean were in town for my wedding & helped assure that the day went perfectly. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone!

There is honestly not a more beautiful wedding venue I’ve ever seen. The view here beats anything and everything. The building itself is also beautiful with a huge chandelier, open doors and modern seating. The bridal suite is right next to the building and is very convenient to get prepared and keep your belongings! The planner I used for this venue was very knowledgeable in all vendors needed which was very helpful as this was a destination wedding and I was not familiar with the area. Here were my only issues which by far did not outweigh the benefits. Price is on the high end. We chose a Thursday date for a significant price difference and being everyone came from out of town it didn’t matter much. Fri-Sun price was just too far out of budget. 2nd, I did not know until about 3 weeks before the wedding the difficulty it is to get to this venue. It’s literally on the top of a mountain, and extremely steep one lane roads to the top. Guests were unable to drive to the venue, and we had a shuttle service bringing guests up and down. Being from the flat lands of Ohio, many of my guests commented this was the scariest drive of their life 😬 I felt developing a shuttle schedule and communicating this to all guests was difficult last minute and I’d liked to have been able to include that information in their invites if I had known prior. The shuttle had to make 3 trips for our 35 guests which then led to people arriving over 3in early without anything to really do. We were not allowed to serve drinks prior to the ceremony so it’s not like they could even do that while waiting. 3rd if it rains AT ALL, regular cars cannot make it up the road. For this reason, we had to cancel the rehearsal the night before and could not drop off all the decor/supplies/alcohol as we intended which caused an extra stressor on me the day of. There was also no where to store cold beer prior to and my father ended up buying a ton of ice/coolers just to keep cold before bartender arrived. Overall those little details did not take away from the wedding being everything I wanted!!! The beauty and originality of this place beats any other weddings we’ve been to. I am still getting compliments!!!

BEAUTIFUL!! Our guests were in awe of the incredible view (and we were too, of course). The bridal suite is gorgeous, and I loved spending the morning in it getting ready. We had our ceremony on the patio area and the backdrop was breathtaking. It rained for about half an hour during our cocktail hour, but all the glass still made it feel very open, and we could still appreciate the view. So many places for beautiful photos. This venue was stunning.

The magnolia that originally stole my heart with one picture, only continued to be a dream come true as I set my eyes on every aspect of the venue and as I talked with the the owners, who were available for my every random question. It was so evident that they cared for EVERY little detail. The Magnolia is truly one of a kind and I could not have found a better setting to create those first memories with my groom. Thank you, Dean, Millicent, Misty, for ALL making my dream of getting married in the mountains come true, for your gracious help that was only a text away, and for you genuine care for our day. At the end of the day, I know I was spoiled with my wedding experience. Simply said: it was a dream, all thanks to the magnolia.

I never write reviews about things but the overall experience with the owners and this venue was so good that I had to write. My wife and I had a fantastic experience with having our wedding at the Magnolia. We have nothing but great things to say about the venue as well as the owners of the venue. They were readily available during the months leading up to the wedding to answer questions and went out of their way to make sure we had a quality experience. If I could give them 100 stars I would because they were that awesome. Everything on the day of the wedding went amazing and the venue is like something out of a dream. It is absolutely beautiful. We happened to have a very sunny, warm day and were able to have the ceremony out on the deck, but even if bad whether were to strike the covered portion of the venue is so beautiful that rain or shine I can't think of a better spot to be married. Overall, we had an absolutely fantastic experience and couldn't recommend this venue enough.

Misty and Millicent are WONDERFUL! They are so professional and helpful, and helped in any way they could. I was definitely lucky, as I was not worried or stressed about the big day. You will not regret getting married here, I promise!

We loved our venue! Misty was amazing from our first conversation to the end of the big day! The shuttle service was a bit of an issue so if you have it be sure to get that schedule worked out in detail ahead of time but it all worked out and our day was perfect!
