We had visited Asheville the Christmas prior to our engagement and just fell in love with the culture and spirit of the town. We then decided that Asheville was the place for our magical day! It had so much to offer our out-of-town guests and was just the perfect setting for us to say I Do! Deciding on Asheville as our wedding location was by far the easiest decision we made during the wedding planning process. Thank you to all the Asheville venues because we had fabulous service from everyone! = Michelle & Charles, Charlotte, NC

The Asheville CVB was wonderful in helping me find outstanding accommodations for our guests. They contacted us quickly after we made inquiries and were always fast getting back to us. The room blocking system they employ gave us multiple lodging options at multiple price points. Since we are not from the area, and we were restricted by a tight budget, this was particularly helpful. The Travel Guides provided by the CVB went beyond the obvious tourist choices for Asheville. We love Asheville and really wanted to help our guests have an extraordinary experience. The CVB certainly helped make that happen. = Jenni, Austin, TX
