The Magnolia

The Magnolia is a mountaintop wedding venue set atop the Great Smoky Mountains in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, just minutes from Gatlinburg and Sevierville. Perched with panoramic mountain views, the property is family-owned and operated by Dean and Millicent, who have hosted thousands of weddings between The Magnolia and its sister venues in the region. The venue hosts one wedding or event per day, giving each couple full privacy across its indoor and outdoor spaces. The Grand Hall offers a climate-controlled indoor reception space year-round with roll-up glass doors, vaulted ceilings, and exposed beams, while the Open-Air Patio and Covered Patio provide outdoor ceremony and cocktail settings with sweeping Smoky Mountain views and string lighting. A bridal suite with four vanity stations, a kitchenette, and a private deck overlooking the mountains rounds out the property. Guests are brought up the mountain by a complimentary shuttle service, and The Magnolia's team handles setup, teardown, and day-of coordination as part of a turn-key rental. Its location near Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Sevierville also places it close to restaurants, breweries, wineries, and lodging, making it well suited to destination wedding weekends.
