Travel
Here you will find travel information for the Greene wedding!
Asheville is also known as Beer City! SO of course we had to list some of our favorite breweries! We grouped them by location; either near AVL airport (1 hour from venue) or near downtown AVL (25 mins from venue).
Directions
Driving from the STL area: Take I-40 East through Nashville & Knoxville. Then use your Google Maps! (Some of I-40 from TN -> NC) is closed on/off during to extensive damage from Hurricane Helene. Once you hit Knoxville, it would be quicker to take back roads through Hot Springs up North towards our Venue and avoid downtown Asheville. When you arrive at our venue, there is a parking lot attendant (on the right in the grass) who will show you where to park. Ubers & Lyfts will drop you off at our venue, but are not reliable for picking up at the end of the night. AVL taxi or AVL hopper is reliable! More information about those at the bottom.
Flying:
AVL (Asheville/Hendersonville) airport is about 1 hour South of Delaney Ridge (depending on traffic).
American Airlines, Allegiant, Delta, & United flights available. Some have connections in CLT, ATL, or DCA.
CLT (Charlotte) International airport is about 2.5hrs East. GSP (Greenville-Spartanburg) International airport is about 2hrs South in South Carolina. Car rentals are available at the airports (would recommend pre-scheduling). There are rideshare options (Ubers/Lyfts) available when you land. Also, AVL taxi service is very reliable (at AVL). More details below.
Once you arrive/park for the ceremony: Guests will hop on a little blue bus that will take you up the mountain! The bus will drive past our reception space, and all the way up to our ceremony sight! Enjoy a non-alcoholic beverage under the pergola while taking in the views. You won't want to miss this picturesque moment. After, you'll walk down a set of stairs (with a handrail), and make your way to any seat either side, to witness our nuptials. Once the ceremony has concluded, you can either take the short downhill stroll to cocktail hour or hop on a shuttle to drive you there. This is where the night will conclude. We hope you can stay for our sparkler send off at 10pm.
Then IF you are planning on getting a ride, we suggest you order a taxi NOT uber or lyft! HAVE THIS PRE-SCHEDULED (around 10:15-10:30pm) a few weeks before the big night!
