“We came here for our honeymoon just a few weeks ago! We stayed in a cabin, ordered delicious take out, and had a fun photo shoot around town.”

-Heather B.

“I chose Pigeon Forge for our wedding because it holds a very special place in my heart. My aunt and uncle had their honeymoon there long before I was born and fell in love with it. When I was a teenager I got to go with them for the first time and a native Floridian, the mountains, flora, and fauna of the Smokies were foreign to me and breathtakingly beautiful.”

-Bethany P.
