Please check out our packages and pricing page for more details!

We offer elopements for up to 25 guests and larger events for up to 130 guests.

It’s important to us that you have the peace and spaciousness of having your “own mountaintop,” which is why we don’t host multiple full-day events on the same day, or offer tours during event hours. The only time we might host multiple events on the same date would be elopements with separate schedules, for example sunrise and sunset ceremonies.

Yes! All packages include planning visits, and we offer on-site rehearsals when dates don’t conflict with another event.

We offer comprehensive venue and catering/bar planning services to ensure a stress-free event. From customizing your menu to advising on rentals, layouts, vendors, and timelines, our team is here to help make your event seamless.

Ceremonies may be hosted in the pavilion (with dining tables moved aside), or clients also have the option to rent a "contingency” tent to cover the ceremony site. FYI, most rental companies require a 50% nonrefundable deposit for tents, whether or not they are installed. Rest assured we’ll always have plenty of umbrellas handy!

Yes, single- and multiple-day events require a certified wedding planner or day-of coordinator. Elopements do not have a coordinator requirement.

We offer a parking lot with attendants for up to 80 vehicles. Unfortunately, cars may not be left onsite overnight as our gates are closed after each event. Shuttles are welcome and encouraged!

Absolutely! Love is love, and we are here to celebrate all of it. Whether your wedding is traditional, non-traditional, or fabulously out-of-the-box, we’re honored to bring hospitality and flavor to your big day. Everyone deserves a celebration as unique as their love story.

Yes, we welcome pets to participate in your special day! We recommend having a pet sitter on-hand to support pets or take them home/to your lodging after your ceremony.

No, Cabin Ridge does not offer on-site lodging or camping.

Our work begins weeks ahead, with property prep to ensure the grounds are sparkling. On event day, we arrive early to ready the dressing suites (coffee and pastries waiting, if you’d like!), and set tables, chairs, and place settings before your florist and coordinator add personal touches. Guests are welcomed by our parking attendants and cared for throughout the celebration by our venue service team—refilling glasses, clearing tables, and packing rentals so you can simply enjoy. From start to finish, our priority is making sure you, your guests, and your vendors feel nourished and cared for.

We have a $45 per person food minimum for full-day events, with most events in the $75-150 per person range (plus tax and gratuity) to include appetizers, dinner, service ware, bar packages, and staffing. We also offer modest grazing displays and lunch boxes for elopements and retreats. We love building custom menus to reflect your unique flavor!

Our pricing reflects our dedication to handcrafted meals using quality local ingredients, as well as paying our team a living wage. Gratuities are optional but greatly appreciated and are shared with our entire team.

Because we prepare meals just for you from scratch, we can serve any cuisine in style! Our menu showcases diverse cuisines, from seasonal Southern and New American to Italian, Asian, Indian, Latin, North Carolina BBQ, and most anything else you might request! While we have a wide range of menus to choose from, we also love creating menus based on special requests, family favorites, and customized or fusion flavors.

Food may be served via a buffet, to tables (individually plated or family style), passed, or at a variety of themed stations. In addition to full-service events, we also offer grazing tables, teas, breakfast, and lunch for mini events, retreats, and “getting ready” time.

Yes, we specialize in onsite cooking and often prepare dishes like seafood, grilled meats, and fried items fresh onsite. Other dishes are prepared at our commissary kitchen in West Asheville and transported to events in hot and cold carriers. As caterers, one of our specialties is determining the best way to prepare and transport each dish so it can be served to your guests at the ideal temperature.

Yes, we are pleased to offer a house bar program serving delicious craft mocktails, beer, wine, and liquor. We bring our years of culinary and hospitality experience to bar offerings, and require our friendly bar staff to complete the NC ABC Commission’s Responsible Alcohol Seller/Server Program (RASP).

Yes, we are experts in accommodating food allergies, vegan diets, gluten-free menus, and other dietary preferences. Our goal is to ensure that every guest at your event—whether they need a nut-free, dairy-free, or plant-based meal—has an enjoyable and inclusive dining experience.

Yes! Tastings are available in our West Asheville kitchen for $125 per couple, $25 for additional guests, and no charge for planners or coordinators. Tastings are optional and can take place before or after booking. In 2026, we will offer Taste of Cabin Ridge events onsite at the venue to welcome confirmed clients to taste, dine and celebrate together!

Events can produce a lot of waste, so we are mindful of reducing and reusing whenever possible. In addition to using responsibly sourced compostable materials, recycling, and even sending compost home to staff chickens and gardens, we also work with Asheville Poverty Initiative's 12 Baskets Cafe to ensure that unwanted leftovers are shared with our community members in need. If you prefer to take leftovers home we will gladly pack them up for you!

Yes, we will gladly help cut and serve your cake at no additional cost. If you are serving an assortment of desserts that require additional setup or display materials we may assess a modest fee to handle that element of service. We also provide many delicious dessert options, and welcome requests!

Yes, we offer crowd-pleasers including sliders, fries, and mini tacos, prepared fresh onsite to keep your guests energized as they dance the night away. Review options on our late-night menu, and feel free to request your favorite late-night snack!

Kids under five eat free, while ages six to twelve are half price if they enjoy the same menu as adults. We can also recommend alternate dishes your young guests may prefer, which are priced a la carte. For seated meals, we recommend serving kids meals as soon as guests are seated, while adults enjoy a salad course.

Yes, for extended events like weddings we always recommend including meals for vendors in your plans! We offer vendor meals for a modest per-person price. While vendors are often fed the event menu after guests have been served, we gladly accommodate vendor dietary or timing needs to help ensure vendors are well-nourished so they can do their best work for you!

Reach out to us and we’ll be in touch to confirm availability and create a custom menu, proposal, and estimate for your gathering. To confirm your booking, simply sign our services agreement and provide a 50% deposit. Event details like menu, guest count, timeline, and staffing levels may be adjusted after booking as details come into focus.

We accept payments via all major credit cards (with a 3.25% service fee), checks, cash, and ACH payments.
