From the reviews
My son and fiancé were married at Silver Hearth Lodge on June 24, 2023, and it was perfect! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and the staff was so helpful. Between the stunning mountain views, swings for people to enjoy, rocking chairs on the sipping porch, corn hole area, and Native American fire pit (with SMORES),…
We first began looking for wedding venues back in 2022. I told my fiancé that I wanted somewhere with a view and he told me he wanted somewhere near fancy gap since we passed through there all the time going up and down the coast to visit his family.
Our daughter and now son-in-law were married at Silver Hearth last Sunday and the whole day could not have been more perfect! Bob and his staff worked very hard to personalize what Abigail and Elijah wanted for their dream wedding day and it all went flawlessly! Bob’s great attention to detail assures that.
My husband and I just got married at Silver Hearth Lodge, and we had the most amazing wedding! My new mother-in-law told us we "hit a home run" by choosing SHL. Our guests went on and on about the beautiful views. The mountains and many photo opp locations throughout the venue made for gorgeous pictures!
Getting married at Silver Hearth Lodge - the ONLY private mountain top wedding venue in the southeast
Silver Hearth Lodge - the ONLY private mountain top wedding venue in the southeast comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
