Hello! I’m Regina, and my goal is simple: to make your wedding as easy as possible. I specialize in all-inclusive packages that require zero planning on your part, so you can focus on what actually matters—each other.
You’ve Waited Long Enough to Get Married
If one of the reasons you’ve been putting off getting married is the cost or the overwhelming thought of planning, I’ve got you! There are literally hundreds of ways to get married in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, but there’s only one Honeysuckle Hills. I pour my heart and soul into this venue every single day because I want your wedding to be special.
Honeysuckle Hills offers everything you’ll need:
Our venue has 7 different ceremony locations to choose from, a back-up plan if it rains, a place to get dressed, a day-of-wedding coordinator, and several talented officiants and photographers to choose from. We also work with the very best wedding vendors in the Southeast if you need florals, hair and makeup, a wedding cake and MORE. And the BEST part? We have more places to take photos than any other venue!
Here are the Three Most Popular Ways to Elope at Honeysuckle Hills
Our family-owned venue is unique with its variety of offerings from elevated, luxury experiences to last-minute adventures! Many venues of similar size require a full day’s booking. However, our venue is unique with its variety of all-inclusive wedding packages, including custom mini weddings with hourly time frames.
The Secret Garden
Luxury Elopement with Petit Cake Reception for 30 guests, $8999
$300 military / first responder appreciation discount
Best for: Couples who want an all-inclusive experience with hair, makeup, photos, bouquet, and wedding cake reception
Overview:
The Secret Garden is a full luxury elopement experience, including hair and makeup services on-site, florals, wedding cake reception, and set-up of personal decor (that you bring) by your day-of-wedding coordinator. Our venue is always wedding-ready, but many couples enjoy adding a few things like pictures and signs to personalize their special day. This is our most requested elopement package for couples who plan up to a year in advance. Because it includes a small cake reception, it has the tradition of a full wedding celebration, without the higher cost of an all day celebration.

These wedding packages are for my down-to-earth country couples who appreciate simplicity. Each base package includes enough time to get dressed, have a heart-felt ceremony followed by photos. You’ll love the options to add extras to elevate your experience like hair and makeup on site, a wedding cake, bouquet, and even a small reception by Buddy's Custom Catering.
While each package has a recommended guest count, choose based on the time offered instead. That way you’re sure to get all those beautiful photos you’re craving, in addition to an optional first dance, cake cutting, or private vows. Intimate elopements at Honeysuckle Hills are easy to book, and even easier to enjoy!

Simply the Ceremony
Cost: $799-$1100
$50 discount for Military & First Responders
Best for: Couples who want the best value for a last-minute wedding in Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg
Overview:
Our “Simply the Ceremony” wedding package is back by popular demand! Because I host this wedding personally, it can only be booked within three months or less of your wedding date. While availability is plentiful in months like July, August, and December through March, it’s extremely challenging to book this package in seasonal months. It never hurts to ask if we’ve had a last-minute cancellation, though!
Honestly, this is my favorite wedding package to host at Honeysuckle Hills. I always meet couples with the best stories, who know the real meaning of marriage. It’s not about the “show.” It’s all about your love!
You’ll show up dressed and ready 15 minutes before your ceremony, and I’ll help you choose a ceremony site. I’ll take professional photos for a half an hour, starting with your ceremony. The officiant is included, and I can help you choose the very best one to match your personality. A copyright release of all the images and a highlight reel is included with this package. One of my favorite thing to do is catch a few 3 second video clips that combine into a 15 to 60 second reel that you can share with your loved ones.
Please respect the four guest count limit for this package. Truly, it’s best enjoyed when it’s only the two of you. I know sometimes it’s not possible to tell a mother or a best friend they can’t attend, so that’s why I welcome up to four more people as a courtesy. Our venue is not one you can rush through, so if you’re worried half an hour isn’t enough, I recommend choosing the $1100 option which inlcudes a full hour, or a custom elopement (listed above) instead.
Are you ready to be married? I can’t wait to meet you!
