About this venue

Appalachian View provides stunning eastern and western views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from the south side of Sugar Mountain. As natives to North Carolina and these mountains, Cathy and Dale Buchanan have enjoyed this area for years - a cabin, time with family and friends, hiking the Appalachian Trail... Here we have hosted weddings for special people in our lives. Consequently, we decided to build on these 75 acres a venue to be able to share this beautiful location with others. We think this is the quintessential place to start your lives together, and are very excited to be able host your wedding ceremony and precious memories.

    Appalachian View was the perfect wedding venue for the couples special day. From the stunning venue with unbelievable views, friendly staff, and all the amenities included, they truly had everything we needed for an incredible wedding weekend. The staff was in constant communication with everyone, and went above and beyond to make sure everything would be perfect, even after the uncertainty following Hurricane Helene. We were able to use their 3 onsite cabins for guests to stay in, as well as their pavilion for our rehearsal dinner, which were not part of the original plan. We are so grateful for their willingness to work with us and their incredible flexibility during this time. Appalachian View made the couples wedding dreams a reality.

    I recently assisted a coordinator there for a wedding and it was the most amazing experience. The ease and layout of the venue made everything flow even more smoothly than we had hoped for. We will continue to recommend this to any couple who reaches out to us. The views and venue is a perfect backdrop and place for a perfect wedding or event.

    I cannot say enough good things about this venue. The place is absolutely stunning. It is a beautiful venue space surrounded by mountain views with the perfect backdrop of grandfather mountain as you say “I do”. Inside the lighting and ceilings were a sight in itself. From day one the staff has been amazing. The Venue Manager, Pam, was easily accessible and prepared to answer any question that I had. She was ready to accommodate whatever I needed and even made the time to let me view my table layout in person because I needed the visual to see if our game-plan could work. The venue coordinator, Gracie, is an absolute doll and just as sweet to work with. I wish I could get married all the time, just so I can visit them at the venue!
