As the mother of the bride, I can genuinely say that my daughter's spring wedding at Smithmore Castle was nothing short of a fairytale. From the moment we arrived, the castle's grandeur and charm took our breath away. The stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains provided a picturesque backdrop that made every photo look like it was straight out of a storybook. The staff at Smithmore Castle were exceptional, attending to every detail with such care and precision that we felt like royalty. The ceremony took place in the beautiful courtyard, where the blooming flowers and elegant statues added a touch of natural beauty to the setting. The gentle sounds of the fountain in the background created a serene and magical atmosphere that set the perfect tone for the day. Inside, the reception was held in the magnificent Great Room, with its marble floors, medieval tapestries, and glittering crystal chandeliers. The three-story granite fireplace was a striking centerpiece that added warmth and a sense of history to the celebration. The castle's chefs prepared a feast that delighted all our guests, blending exquisite flavors with impeccable presentation. The highlight of the evening was when my daughter and her new husband retired to the Royal Tower View Suite. The luxurious accommodations and breathtaking views made for an unforgettable start to their new life together. Smithmore Castle exceeded all our expectations, creating memories that we will cherish forever. It was truly a fairytale wedding come to life.

They let my now husband run internet to the back yard so we could live stream our ceremony to my grandparents who were not able to make it.

The Monte Vista Hotel 
Black Mountain, NC
  • Up to 120 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,500

The historic Monte Vista Hotel is a key component to Black Mountain’s storied past. Originally home to the Cherokee people, this valley became an early pathway west for traders, explorers and people seeking a new life beyond the eastern mountains. The town of Black Mountain grew rapidly after the railroad was completed in the late 19th century, and this new “railroad town” needed more lodging. Lucien and Rosalie Phillips opened the Monte Vista in 1919, repurposing a former school building. In 1937, the current brick building was constructed, further cementing the Monte Vista Hotel as a central piece of Black Mountain’s civic and social life. The Annex, a separate structure located behind the original, was added in 1975. Though the hotel has since undergone complete renovations and new ownership, many of the original elements have been preserved, and the new decorative touches complement the look and feel of the original structure.
