We are beyond grateful for the incredible team at Serenity Ridge. From start to finish, every experience there was unforgettable. Haley, Jordan, Katie, and Elliott were all so warm, welcoming, and wonderful to work with, and their care and talent truly shine through in everything they do. We had so many guests come up to us to say this was the most beautiful wedding venue they had ever been to—and we couldn’t agree more. We felt completely at ease throughout the entire process knowing we were in such great hands. Serenity Ridge will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we can’t thank this team enough for being such an important part of our wedding day.

Serenity Ridge is truly the perfect wedding venue. It offers everything you could possibly want—exceptional food, beautiful on-site accommodations, a seamless rehearsal dinner experience, an incredible staff, full access to the property for the entire weekend, and absolutely breathtaking views.
Haley was incredible throughout the entire planning process. Every little detail I wanted to adjust or refine was handled flawlessly. She took what could have been a stressful time and made it genuinely enjoyable and worry-free.
The food was phenomenal. We hosted both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding here, and out of nearly 100 guests, not a single person had anything less than glowing praise. All night long, people raved about how delicious everything was. The kitchen staff is wonderfully flexible—if you have a vision, they will bring it to life.
The accommodations were also outstanding. Having my close family in the cabins, my bridal party in the hilltop house, and the yurt for ourselves after the wedding—without having to worry about transportation—was an absolute dream.
If I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment. I’d choose Serenity Ridge every single time.

We couldn’t have been happier with our decision to host our wedding at Serenity Ridge! We chose this venue because we wanted a beautiful mountain setting in NC where our family and friends could stay on property, and Serenity Ridge exceeded all our expectations. One of the things that set it apart is that the property is exclusively yours all weekend, making the experience private and completely focused on your event.
Serenity Ridge is an incredible value. Their pricing is more of an “all-inclusive” model, covering the venue rental, lodging for 30+ guests, catering, bartending, setup & cleanup, rentals... you name it. When you consider everything included, the cost is unbeatable — and it makes planning so much easier!
The team at Serenity Ridge was incredibly helpful and communicative throughout the planning process. Haley answered all my questions with patience and kindness (and there were a lot!), providing great vendor recommendations and guidance along the way. On the wedding weekend, the staff was flexible, accommodating, and attentive, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. From exceptionally clean lodging to early and late check-ins, they truly go above and beyond for their guests.
We hosted both our rehearsal dinner and wedding at Serenity Ridge, and the food was nothing short of amazing. Our guests are still raving — it’s not just “good wedding food,” it’s incredible restaurant quality.
The staff during the events was also incredible. When rain started just 20 minutes before our ceremony, they quickly moved everything inside and then seamlessly flipped the pavilion from ceremony to reception in no time during cocktail hour without impacting the guest experience. Despite the brief rain, the day went perfectly, and we were rewarded with stunning sunset views later in the evening.
I cannot say enough good things about Serenity Ridge, the location, and the staff. They truly care about their couples and strive to make your vision a reality. Hosting our wedding here was the best decision we made!

Outstanding. From start to finish, property tour to the wedding weekend, we knew Serenity Ridge was special. Having accommodations and catering onsite provided us the opportunity to be present for our daughter’s wedding weekend. The Serenity Ridge team was effortless to work with and their hospitality above and beyond. The setting was gorgeous, sunsets, mountains, thoughtful guest areas. Guests could not stop taking pictures and raving about the trails and the cozy cabins. The Hilltop House was ideal for hosting the smaller meals, along with hair and makeup before the wedding. The pavilion and built in bar worked perfectly for our cocktail hour and reception. We did put the vinyl sides down, but they did not impede the beautiful views in any way. There was plenty of room for a big dance floor as requested by the Bride and Groom. Every space we used was sparkling clean and free of clutter. Our weekend included a mostly Gluten-Free menu, and the Serenity Ridge team knocked it out of the park. Our guests were thrilled with the options but also the quality. Delicious – every single bite. No exaggeration. An all-Gluten Free cocktail hour, dessert bar and wedding cake did not disappoint anyone who wasn’t Gluten Free. Having coordinated many events and my other daughter’s wedding just months ago, I can assure you – not every venue is like Serenity Ridge. I would not hesitate to recommend them and am already trying to come up with another family event so we can go back!

We had such a great experience at this wedding venue!! When we arrived, we were honestly blown away by how beautiful the cabins and the house were. They were spacious, comfortable, and really well-equipped, which made it the perfect spot for our whole weekend. The setting was gorgeous, and our guests kept mentioning how much they loved the place.
Haley and the rest of the team were incredibly helpful throughout the entire weekend. They went above and beyond, helping with setup, serving, and making sure everyone had everything they needed. We didn’t end up hiring a planner, so my mom and I took care of the details ourselves, but Haley and her team stepped in wherever they could to fill in the gaps. Even with Haley having just had a baby, she was always there to lend a hand.
The food was another highlight—our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good it was. It was delicious, beautifully presented, and just perfect for the vibe we were going for.
Overall, we couldn’t have been happier with the venue. It’s beautiful, the service is fantastic, and we felt really well taken care of the entire time. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a laid-back yet special wedding weekend.
