“I can't say enough wonderful things about The Vineyard at High Holly and the amazing owners, Leslie and Eric. My wedding was truly perfect, despite the unexpected arrival of Hurricane Helene! From the very beginning, Leslie and Eric went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, even as the storm approached. They made adjustments on the fly, ensuring that all of my guests were safe and comfortable while still creating the dream wedding I had envisioned. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views that made our ceremony unforgettable. The attention to detail, the warmth, and the hospitality were unparalleled. Leslie and Eric's dedication to their couples shines through in everything they do — they really treated us like family. Even in the face of a hurricane, they managed to keep the atmosphere calm and joyful, and their support made all the difference. If you're looking for a venue with a personal touch, stunning scenery, and hosts who truly care about your big day, I can’t recommend The Vineyard at High Holly enough. Leslie and Eric made my wedding day feel magical, no matter what the weather threw our way!”

“Mrs. Arlene is the sweetest and most welcoming vendor I ever spoke with. She ensured that all the details for how we wanted the day to go was discussed. She offered different vendors that we could work with. She worked with my tight budget for my small wedding and made our day more special that I could’ve dreamed of. She was consistent with checking in with me which was greatly appreciated since I was planning my own wedding and was super busy with work and everything else. She was there the day of the wedding helping out in all the ways she could, she even fixed me and my husband’s plates so we can sit down and relax. Her team of photographers are the absolute best and were so sweet. Over all the whole experience was amazing and I can’t recommend her enough. She honestly feels like family and on top of everything the venue is beautiful! It’s an 1800 century that they’ve renovated, but kept all of its charm. If you’re looking for a small venue for a baby shower, wedding, birthday party. This is perfect! I am definitely going back for future events.”

“Yonah Mountain Vineyards was the perfect place for our wedding. We had visited YMV several times before for the wine (before we were even dating) and when we got engaged, we immediately knew Yonah was where we wanted the wedding. The team at Yonah was amazing from the beginning. Touring the venue and getting all the wedding information was a quick and easy process. They were able to answer any and all questions we had (no matter how many). Our representative ended up being switched after some reorganization and that transition process was also seamless and easy (we ended up working with Arianna who is so sweet!). When hurricane Helene knocked out the power at the bridal rental house the weekend of our wedding, Arianna quickly coordinated moving our bridal party to the other house on the property so we could get ready for the weekend's festivities. The venue itself is stunning, with beautiful views of Yonah Mountain and the vineyards. The ballroom is large and open and also an amazing space. We have 0 regrets with having our wedding at Yonah. The guests also loved the venue.”

Macy was a top notch venue coordinator who went the extra mile to help make our wedding perfect.

Our wedding here was a memory we and our guests will never forget! We can’t recommend CeNita Venue enough!”
