šŸ’• Beyond the Big Day: Making Your Asheville Wedding Experience Unforgettable

At Jeanne’s Hair & Makeup, we know the wedding day is just one magical part of your entire celebration. If you’ve chosen to say ā€œI doā€ in Asheville or Western North Carolina—congratulations! You’re not just getting married, you’re hosting an experience.

We’re here to help you think beyond the aisle with a detailed list of ways to make your wedding weekend (or week!) unforgettable—for you and your guests.

šŸ’ 1. The Wedding Day (Of Course!)

Start with the star of the show. From breathtaking venues in the Blue Ridge to rustic barns and luxe estates, Asheville delivers. And your beauty look? Leave that to us.

✨ Jeanne’s Hair & Makeup will ensure you and your bridal party look flawless, photograph perfectly, and feel calm and confident throughout it all.

šŸŒ™ 2. The Night Before – Build the Anticipation

Plan a relaxing welcome dinner or intimate cocktail night for close family and the wedding party. Whether it’s a private chef in a mountaintop Airbnb or a candle-lit table at Curate, this is the calm before the wedding magic.

šŸ» 3. Make Up That Bachelor or Bachelorette Party

Didn’t get to celebrate before? You’re in Beer City USA—now’s your chance. Book a private brewery tour, a pedal pub crawl, or a rooftop bar circuit. We recommend:

  • The Funkatorium 
  • Wicked Weed 
  • Highland Brewing’s meadow stage 
  • The Whale (for rare brews & good vibes) 

Add a ladies’ glam session with Jeanne’s team before heading out!

šŸŽØ 4. Explore Downtown Asheville

Your guests will love strolling the streets filled with music, murals, and local charm. Organize or suggest:

  • A Food Tour 
  • Asheville Art Museum 
  • LaZoom Comedy Tours 
  • Live music at The Orange Peel or Isis Music Hall 

šŸžļø 5. Outdoor Adventures

Nature lovers will thank you. Share itineraries or plan group excursions:

  • Chasing waterfalls in Brevard (Looking Glass Falls, Sliding Rock, Triple Falls) 
  • Blue Ridge Parkway hikes 
  • Kayaking or paddleboarding on the French Broad 
  • Hot air balloon rides over the mountains 

šŸ° 6. Tour the Biltmore Estate

Make this a group experience! From the historic mansion to the vineyard, gardens, and Antler Hill Village, it’s a must-do Asheville attraction.

šŸ“ø 7. Schedule a Pre-Wedding Photo Shoot

Capture romantic moments in Asheville’s most scenic spots—Craggy Gardens, Max Patch, or The NC Arboretum. Jeanne’s team is happy to glam you up before your shoot so you’re camera-ready!

🚐 8. Limo or Luxury Van Excursions

Consider a private shuttle for a wine-tasting day in Hendersonville, or a mountaintop picnic at sunset. A mobile glam session beforehand makes it even more unforgettable.

šŸ›ļø 9. Brunch, Spa, and Wind-Down Plans

Post-wedding brunches are becoming a favorite trend. Think Rhubarb, Sunny Point Cafe, or Early Girl Eatery. And don’t forget a spa day at The Grove Park Inn for some post-celebration bliss.

šŸŽ 10. Welcome Gift Bags with Local Flair

Include a map, local chocolates, mini bottle of Biltmore wine, and a list of recommended things to do. It’s a thoughtful touch that enhances the guest experience.
