Brianna C.

“We booked this venue before it was even finished being built, because it was just too gorgeous of a location to pass up. I had always wanted a destination wedding in the mountains, and this venue truly made my dream a reality. Braden and Macey made planning a wedding out of state so easy. They were always there to answer my many questions. The view and the venue are spectacular. This will be a day we will never forget.”

“Everything about this venue is great. The staff is very friendly and will help couples coordinate their big day, the views off of the ceremony patio can’t be beaten, and the provided vendor list is very helpful for out-of-town couples who need to find reputable vendors in the area. I appreciated the fact the venue has a groom’s suite in addition to the bridal suite, it gave me and my friends a nice space to hang out during the day. For fall or spring weddings, there is a nice firepit area downstairs from the ceremony patio pictured below.

I also thought the logistics of the venue were very convenient. There is ample parking in the lot outside and the drive up to the venue is windy, but doable. The ability to co-locate the ceremony and reception with the bridal and grooms suite made the day-of activities very simple and allowed everyone at the celebration to have a good time.”

“I don’t think there’s enough room to write about how special the Trillium is to me and my now husband. When we were doing our research to find a venue, we instantly fell in love. The Trillium at that point was just a sketch, not even built, but I had a gut feeling it would be “the one”. My husband being the skeptic he is, was concerned… “how do we know if this place isn’t built yet..? Shouldn’t we wait to see once it’s done”… but I encouraged him to take a chance and it was the best decision we have ever made, other than of course beginning our lives together. After a zoom meeting with Braden, Mark looked at me and said, “we found the one. That’s where we’re getting married”. Braden is the sweetest. We quickly fell in love with her and her love for what she does at The Trillium. Her passion for this beautiful venue ignited our passion for it too… but her help didn’t stop at that first zoom meeting. We took several trips to the Smoky Mountains to see the venue and meet with Braden. She helped us each step of the way. She constantly checked in, made sure we were up to date, gave us her recommendations, and we would go as far to say we made a life long friend. As far as the venue goes, what more is there to say… pictures can never do this piece of heaven justice. Once you get up there and see it for yourself I promise it’ll quickly become the best decision you’ll ever make too. Our family and friends couldn’t believe the views.. or that the venue was real. Each time we see our wedding pictures or the venue in real life we get the chills. The Trillium and it’s staff will always have a special place in our hearts. This will always be one of the biggest and best days of our lives. Thank you to Braden and The Trillium for the best experience we could have ever dreamed of. If you’re thinking about doing it… please trust me and just do it!!!! You’ll quickly fall in love too!! If we could do it all over again, we would in a heartbeat.”

“We still don’t  have the words to accurately describe just how amazing this venue is! We got married on a beautiful day in May 2022 and everything went so smoothly! We knew we wanted to get married in the mountains and this venue exceeded all expectations! The views are amazing and the whole property is beautiful! The staff was helpful and wonderful as well. Would recommend the Trillium over and over. Worth every penny!!”

Ida A.

“To be honest, no amount of words could properly convey what this venue meant to my husband and me. We wanted the perfect combination of a modern farmhouse with great mountain views. We booked The Trillium before it was even completed because we just knew immediately that THIS. WAS. IT. and more. Cannot say enough good things about The Trillium and Braden, and we highly recommend any couple take the plunge and just book for an unforgettable wedding.”

“The most magical venue for your mountain wedding!! We got married there on 10/29/21 and it was a dream. From the views, to the beautiful venue, to the friendly and easy to work with staff, I have nothing but great things to say about this venue! 10/10 highly recommend!!”

“I’m sure there are words to describe how beautiful the Trillium Venue is but I don’t know what they are. This place is truly a dream. To think, my then fiancé and I reserved the place when it was only a cleared out piece of mountain top property; what a transformation!

We couldn’t be happier with our decision! The views are outstanding and we received compliments about them all day and all night! My Bride and her Bridesmaids had plenty of room to prepare in their suite with TWO exterior balconies to enjoy the scenery from and seven individual vanities to use. My Groomsmen and I had our own high-top bar with garage window, shuffleboard table and flat screen TV. This place was a blast!

The Trillium team is also so friendly and accommodating. Macey and Braden helped us throughout the planning process and what an invaluable resource they were. The venue also provided quite an exhaustive list of recommended vendors to use, which we took full advantage of.

The Trillium Venue is so nice we almost didn’t want to leave at the end of the night!”

“After traveling to 5 different states in search of our perfect destination wedding venue, we ultimately booked The Trillium Venue for our October 2021 wedding sight unseen. A decision like that is not like me at all, but something about this venue just spoke to me. My fiancé and I recently traveled to Tennessee to see the venue site for the first time and WOW! The venue is not complete yet, but I have absolutely no doubt it will be more incredible than I could even imagine. The view was breathtaking. I haven’t seen anything like it at any other venue (and we looked at venues in Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado… So that is saying something)! The venue owners were kind and gracious enough to let us see the venue site at night as well, and that was just as spectacular! You can see the lights of both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. I was also told that in certain months, you can even see the fireworks from Dollywood. This venue makes you feel on top of the world while being only about 30 minutes from town. So far, it has surpassed all of my expectations. On top of all of this, the owners, Millicent and Dean, are two of the nicest people out there. They are putting so much heart and soul into this, and they have thought of just about everything. I cannot wait to come back to see the finished product, and I cannot wait for all of our friends and family to see it in October 2021!”
