My daughter and her husband had their wedding and reception here yesterday and it was beautiful. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a venue. And the lady and gentleman that own and run this place are amazing and very nice people. I came on here because I really wanted to thank them for the amazing job they did and their hospitality. You both were so sweet. Thank you both so much. Also this place has alot of history to it.

We planned our wedding fairly quickly and wanted to get married close to our home in Hendersonville. This venue is tucked away right in the middle of Hendersonville. The home is beautiful and we loved that our guests could go choose to stay outside in the tent or go inside to cool off. Tammy and Danny made our wedding day run flawlessly. Danny went above and beyond to help our vendors make our vision come to life and Tammy has an eye and intuition for how to make everything run smoothly from planning to the day of. This couple knows what they're doing and I am so happy I got to work with them! You will not regret choosing Spring Haven!

Spring Haven is such a beautiful place! Indoors and out, rain or shine. It was raining but the accommodations are such that it really didn't matter. Very well managed and maintained. Definitely 5 stars!
