Are you looking for a WV wedding that will showcase the rolling landscape of the mountain state? Set your big day in Southern WV.
Planning starts with a destination! There are plenty of places to have a wedding overlooking the state’s famous scenery.
Here are a few locations for a breathtaking wedding:
1. Glade Springs Resort

They also offer a carriage to escort you.
2. Daniel Vineyards
With options to accommodate up to 400 guests, Daniel Vineyards has a charming winery, gazebo, deck and pavilion to choose from. You can choose a locale to overlook the blueberry patch, or the lush, green vineyard. For additional ease, you can also use the kitchen, and electrical connections are available outdoors. And, of course, you can hire a vineyard bartender to serve up authentic mountain flavor from Daniel’s.
2.The Foxwood Inn
Rent out an entire old-fashioned luxury home aside a quaint pond, and say your vows on the open veranda. The Foxwood estate features two homes perfect for outdoor occasions: the Foxwood and the Mullberry. The first has a wrap-around deck and a separated 2-room upstairs suite, and waterfall view from the veranda. The yard of the second 8-bedroom home has ample space for the elegant wedding tent and a bonfire afterward, too. Its veranda has a mountain view, and its kitchen is fully stocked for you and your guests.
4. Smokey’s on the Gorge
