Smoky Mountain Wedding Weather

The Smoky Mountains are most popular for Spring and Fall weddings due to mild weather and beautiful scenery. Summer can be warm and humid, but the lake provides a cooling effect on the surrounding area and is perfect for swimming and water activities. Winter is chilly but offers almost a magical experience with bonfires in all our rooms and common areas.
