A Beautiful Hill House Wedding

The first weekend of May was very special with a garden wedding held at the Inn. The entire Inn was filled for 3 days with Christine and Scott's family and friends to join them in celebrating their new life together.

On Friday evening we hosted a wine and cheese reception as all the guests arrived from different parts of the country. One brother was even able to make it from Japan. They were thrilled.

The ceremony was held on Sunday morning, with brunch to follow on the front porch. The morning was busy with the delivery of the wedding cake and beautiful floral arrangements. The cake was FABULOUS, baked at Short Street Cakes in Asheville. They even had an assortment of bite sized mini-cupcakes. And the flowers were a work of art! Christine's favorite color is green and Shady Grove Flowers on Lexington Avenue created magnificent green and white centerpieces for the breakfast tables as well as their bouquets.

It turned out to be a very warm weekend after a colder start to the week. It felt almost tropical! Luckily the rain held off that day and everyone was able to enjoy the garden setting and a leisurely meal outdoors.

After three days, we almost felt like family and the good-byes were heartfelt. The bride and groom stayed a few days longer in the Cottage, so they were able to take time to relax and see all the sights in the area. We felt honored to be part of their wedding weekend and look forward to their return to Hill House again in the future.

"We will always remember our beautiful wedding and how your generosity and thoughtfulness made every detail special."

Congratulations Christine and Scott!!!
