Asheville Adventure Elopement: Brewery Stop + Sunset Hike
Brandy + Chris came up from Florida for a mid-October adventure elopement—equal parts trail time, good beer, and a sunset ceremony in the mountains. They’re avid runners and hikers who travel whenever they can, dreaming of one day trading Florida life for a place like Asheville. We grabbed a drink at Fonta Flora, drove to the trailhead, and hiked into golden-hour light for a simple, meaningful “just us” wedding day in one of their favorite regions.
Sunrise Waterfall Elopement in Bryson City, NC.
Bryson City might just be one of Western North Carolina’s best-kept secrets when it comes to planning a mountain elopement or intimate wedding. Tucked into the southern edge of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and just over an hour from Asheville, it’s full of accessible trails, hidden waterfalls, scenic rentals, and a relaxed pace that draws couples who are looking to simplify — and slow down.
