We want newly married couples, as they are leaving our property for the night, to stop, look at each other, & simply say, "Wow".
The view alone at the Opal Oak Summit is worth a Sunday drive. If you’re fortunate enough to be able to have one of the most memorable days of your life with that backdrop, well, congratulations! The friendly staff were very helpful and accommodating. Would recommend to anyone.
The Opal Oak is hands down the best venue in East Tennessee. The owners care tremendously about your experience. The venue is brand new, extremely clean, and the view is stunning. You won’t find any better. Highly recommend!!
Breathtaking venue! Careful thought and attention to detail in every facet of the venue, but the most priceless gem in the whole tiara is the exquisite panorama that wraps the whole spot…. Every angle is a photo op all its own…
Coming from a wedding planners perspective, we HIGHLY recommend The Opal Oak Summit! We absolutely love this venue and the sweet families who own it. The communication with the venue director (Chad) is always professional and he goes above and beyond to ensure his clients are happy. The view from the venue is breathtaking and the ceremony site is perfectly placed to allow for the most amazing photos! We also love the convenience of the bridal suite & grooms suite!
This place is top notch. They care so much about you, your people and all that goes into your special day. Everyone there is on your team to make sure things run perfectly so you don’t have to worry about a thing. Oh, and those views!! This place is a hidden gem that the entire States going to know about sooner than later.
Our Story
When we found this place, we knew we couldn’t keep it for ourselves. And because we know that a meaningful, memorable wedding is the foundation stone for a beautiful and lasting marriage, what better way to share it than through a destination designed specifically for that purpose?
When the Wilson brothers — Chad and his wife, Kelli, and Dillon and his wife, Mikhaila, first discovered it, it was a wild place with thick groves of trees crowding the summit, but when the two couples stepped to the edge of the tree line, they knew they’d found something special.
Together, they set out to transform it into Opal Oak Summit Wedding and Event Center, and today, they cordially invite you to take advantage of it for your weddings, your family reunions, your retreats, and any other gathering that demands a little something extra. At Opal Oak Summit, that “extra” is everywhere, from the sky to the land to the air. It may not be heaven, but by East Tennessee standards, it’s right next door.
