Welcome to Catawba Falls Events
Unforgettable
The taking of vows deserves a location that touches the soul - yours and everyone present. At the top of our lakeside summit, this is it. Your special day takes center stage at Catawba Falls, serving as an intriguing and ever-changing backdrop. Every season brings a touch of gorgeous natural terrain.
Celebration
Helping you find the perfect space on our property for your wedding celebrations is vital to us. We only host one wedding per day, allowing you a choice of the environment that uniquely meets your needs. A few of our ceremony sites are the Oak Amphitheater, the Boulder Room, the Jasmine Terrace, and the Driftwood Arbor. The only limit to your dream wedding is your imagination!
Unique
Your wedding day should be a reflection of you as a couple. We understand that planning a wedding can be overwhelming and stressful, with everyone offering their opinions and sharing their own experiences. You have found the perfect solution to alleviate some of the pressure with Catawba Falls Events. We limit the number of wedding dates available so that we can give our full attention to our couples. Our venue and the surrounding grounds are the beginnings of you as a couple making your way different from all the rest.
We are thrilled to have the opportunity to be a part of your special day.
Memories are made here!
“Our wedding day went so much smoother because of the professionalism of Catawba Falls. Though it did rain on my wedding day and I had to move my ceremony indoors, it was still perfect. I exited through the center barn doors and have gotten so many compliments of how breathtaking it was.”
-Morgan Burris Shirley, Bride
