Asheville Welcome Party Locations

Maybe try a brewery? Not from Asheville, just someone who visits often

I was thinking that too, I'm familiar with Asheville but thought someone might know specifically where can accommodate group of 50. Thanks!

This is a nice way of welcoming guests and giving them a chance to mix and mingle ahead of the wedding day There are some great bars in the area you can check out on TripAdvisor if this helps!

Does your wedding venue have a bar or area where you could have this? Or would you rather not have it in the same place?

Not sure if you have found anywhere yet... but here are a few of my favorite spots in Asheville that maybe good options for what you are talking about having...

Chestnut

Table

Zambra

Here are 3 different options. Chestnut is more high end (really good!), Table is right in the middle (also very good!), and Zambra is a really cool Tapas place.

Hi! We are also getting married in Asheville, but in May. We were having trouble finding a place for our rehearsal dinner that didn't have over the top rental fees in addition to what we would pay for food and drink for 45-50 people and we just happened by a brewery called The Collaboratory. They have a neat room in the back that can be closed off, or it can be left open to lead into the main area. They don't charge any rental fees, you just have to pay for food and drink (they are very reasonably priced for per person open bar fee if you are looking for that- and it's a full bar). Its a casual, laid back place, the food was good and the service was too when we went. We are having a mingle hour for everyone after the rehearsal dinner is over as well.

Hope this helps!
