Julie Rice(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-12-2022 I give the highest recommendations for Rose Haven. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and the planners took care of any eventuality Mother Nature could throw at us for my son's December 3rd wedding. This is an outdoor venue, but they had tents ready and heaters set up in case the weather cooled off. We had rain that morning, but there was artificial turf to cover the ceremony area overlooking Lake James and plenty of umbrellas at hand. The decorations were entirely appropriate without being Christmas-y, and we had plenty of room for our wedding dinner guests at tables set up across a variety of areas including a side porch, outdoor fireplace area, and inside the log home \"living room.\" The planner had parking set up off-site for our many guests, and we had shuttles running to and from the venue on a regular basis. We had several guests who needed to drive home immediately after the ceremony, and they didn't have a long wait to be taken back to their cars.The loft held the bridal party ladies for their makeup and hair styling as well as providing plenty of room to dress and visit prior to the wedding while the groomsmen had their own area downstairs which led out to a small patio. The upstairs loft also provided a great first look of the bride for the bride's parents and the groom's mother without letting anyone else intrude on those special moments. I especially liked using the main covered patio for the bride and groom table as well as dancing. This area was centrally located to the tables set up inside and outside and was easily accessed by the wedding guests to both visit with the bride and groom and dance. It had plenty of room for dancing and we even had a conga line at one point! Even if it had decided to return to raining, we were covered for dancing the night away.We had superb catering from a local Chinese restaurant recommended and set up by our planner, and the food was delicious! We also had a bar tender providing various libations for our guests along with a self-serve hot chocolate bar. I expect Rose Haven can accommodate all sorts of set-ups for food. We had a seated dinner with a buffet line for ours, but there is also a long bar along one side of the large \"living room\" downstairs which could hold all sorts of finger foods for guests.My son and his new bride also spent their first night as husband and wife in the loft bedroom. This was so convenient because they went straight from dancing to relaxing without having to drive anywhere. As mother of the groom, I could've been worried since my son was marrying at an out-of-state and unfamiliar location, but the wedding planner took care of everything. Reviewed on 16-01-2023
We just got married here and I canât recommend it enough. Great location, beautiful inside area, outside garden area and beautiful architecture, plenty of parking, beautiful view. It was my dream venue and Iâm in love with it. Angel Rose, the manager, is amazing and was so helpful the entire way through. They also work with a lot of great vendors that they recommend to you.

3 short weeks before my sonâs rehearsal party and wedding the wedding venue cancelled on us. Rose Haven came to the rescue! Rose Havenâs planned Grand Opening was scheduled the weekend after our event but they not only said come on - they did everything to make our event perfect! Roads were regraveled, sod was carefully laid, arches were built and the entire venue was cleaned from top to bottom! Rehearsal Casino Night under a beautiful portico with Lake James and Table Rock as the backdrop - So Easy !Wedding Vows beneath handcrafted wooden arches, again with Lake James and Table Rock as the back drop - Spectacular!And when a bit of rain threaten the Wedding After Party - plenty of room inside and outside the beautifully crafted lodge, portico and patio - Perfection!Two different set of catering services and a professional bartended commended over and over about the ease of working in the venue. Everything they needed was provided by Rose Haven. Would book again! Absolutely perfect! Reviewed on 21-05-2023
Kelsie Rice(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-12-2022 My husband and I couldnât have picked a better venue to get married. The view is absolutely stunning and the set up was amazing. Everyone in our wedding party and our guests kept commenting on how beautiful Rose Haven is, and I couldnât agree more. We hired the wedding planner at this venue, and let me tell you, she is truly wonderful. Literally the sweetest person on the planet, and she gets things done! She always made me feel calm, and was a great listener to all of my âpre bridalâ stress. She constantly reminded me that this was my day and no one elseâs, and that she would make whatever I wanted happen, and she was true to her word. Overall, it is worth the money, because everything is tailored to your needs, and did I mention it was stunning?! I highly recommend having your wedding here, and Iâm so glad my husband and I found this place. Reviewed on 08-03-2023
Marina Orders(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 22-10-2022 Rose Haven was an absolute dream! First of all the view is spectacular. You have a beautiful natural backdrop of the mountains and Lake James. The house is a stunning modern cabin with 2 bedrooms, 2 spacious full bathrooms and a large loft with lots of natural light which was perfect for getting ready the day of our wedding! We had a great experience with everyone involved. They were so kind, helpful, answered all our questions and made us feel like family. We highly recommend Rose Haven! Reviewed on 10-02-2023
Talking about myself is not something I enjoy doing. I'm a behind the scenes kind of person. Other than spending time with my family, my passions include: planning, organizing, making lists, and getting things done. It brings me great joy to help others make memories for their special moments. Most recently, I had the privilege to plan and direct my oldest daughter's wedding. Everything about that day turned out magical at Rose Haven. I would love to walk along side you and help create those memories that will last a lifetime.
