A Majestic Smoky Mountain Backdrop

Welcome to Foothills Parkway. Located approximately 17 miles from Pigeon Forge lies this beautiful area with the most breathtaking Smoky Mountain backdrop.

All of our stress-free Foothills Parkway elopement packages include:

Ceremony & Officiant

Of course, the ceremony and officiant are included with all of our packages. Our officiant has married more than 4000 couples in the Great Smoky Mountains area over the last 10 years.

Post-Wedding Marriage License Filing

Following your ceremony, the officiant completes your marriage license. It is then filed back with the County Clerk’s office. Your official certified marriage certificates are then mailed out to you, ready to use back home.

Rental Fees OR Permits

Whether it’s a privately owned Gatlinburg waterfall or a one of our gorgeous spot inside of the National Park, we’ve got you covered. Site rental fees or National Park permits are included.

Professional Photography

Our seasoned wedding photographer has shot over 3500 elopements in the Smoky Mountains over the last decade. When it comes to Gatlinburg elopements, we’ve got you covered every step of the way.
*Except the Simple Remembrance package

Online Gallery & Print Release

Your photos will be ready within ONLY TWO WEEKS! They will be available in an online gallery and you will be able to download all of your full-resolution/full-sized images. A print release is included so you can make UNLIMITED prints in ANY size you desire.

ElopeXpert™ Client Portal

Getting married out-of-state can be stressful and full of headaches. Put your mind at ease with our ElopeXpert™ Client Portal. This portal will contain loads of information including trusted vendors, photography prep tips, marriage license information, and much more.

Additional Details

While Foothills Parkway is part of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, all required permits and fees are included in our package pricing.

Like all of our National Park elopements, we hold a Commercial Use Authorization (CUA) license and take care of obtaining the Special Use Permit (SUP) for you. This is one less headache that you have to worry about on your special day.

If you are interested in reserving a wedding on the Foothills Parkway in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, reach out to via email or give us a call at (865) 365-5025 and we would be more than happy to discuss the options.

Parking Pass Required

The National Park now requires parking passes for anyone parking inside of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, including parking for weddings. Parking passes are NOT included with your reservation and must be sourced directly from the National Park for each vehicle you will be taking into the park. Daily, weekly, and annual parking passes are available.

If you are having guests at your wedding, you’ll want to ensure they know that they will need to purchase a parking pass. You can obtain more information about the required parking pass directly from the Great Smoky Mountain National Park by clicking here.

Beautiful Photos!

Such a good experience! They made us feel so comfortable! It was a time filled with smiles and laughs and we felt relaxed and not stressed or worried like so many other people on their wedding day. Plus the photos turned out beautiful! And we got them back quick! Thank you to the both of you for making our special day a great one.

Highly Recommend!

We had a wonderful experience! Adam and Danielle are extraordinarily nice and made the whole process so easy. Our dog is a huge part of our lives and they were wonderful with not only handling him but also included him in our beautiful photos. The private creek side location is stunning and made for a secluded and intimate ceremony. Highly recommend getting married through this company!

Forever Grateful!

We are obsessed with the overall experience going thru this company! Danielle was excellent & made us feel like we’ve all hung out before. Also dealing with one of the windiest days didn’t stop her skills at photography. We couldn’t have asked for or imagined anything else. Honestly five stars isn’t enough! We will forever be grateful for our experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about our Foothills Parkway elopements? Find your answers down below.

Can we have guests?

Of course! While we do many true elopements (with no guests), all of our wedding locations allow for up to 20 total people and every package (except the Simple Remembrance) allows for guests. This includes the two being married, any members of the wedding party, and any and all guests, including children. This is a strict limit, though, and the number cannot be increased for any reason. Since we specialize in elopements, all of our locations have this restriction. We do not offer locations/packages for weddings with more than 20 people.

How do I make a reservation? Is a deposit required?

It’s simple, really. Once you have decided on your date, what package you want, and the location you want to get married at, you can reserve your wedding on our website at this link. You can also just click “Book Now” farther up the page under the package you wish to book. If you prefer to make your reservation over the phone, just give us a call at (865) 365-5025.

To reserve your date/time/location, there is a $500 non-refundable deposit. Since it’s non-refundable, you’ll want to be sure to finalize your travel plans prior to booking your elopement with us. The remaining balance isn’t due until the time of the ceremony.

How do I get the Tennessee marriage license?

For any elopement taking place in Tennessee, a Tennessee marriage license is required. No company can get it for you on your behalf as it must be signed by the couple directly in front of the county clerk. Out-of-state couples often stress about this. But, getting a Tennessee marriage license is super simple.

In Sevier County, we have three offices you can get it from and they can be issued any day of the week except for Sunday. In about ten minutes, you’ll be out of their office with your marriage license in hand. Just bring this license to your wedding spot and we take care of the rest. For additional information regarding the Tennessee marriage license, click here.

How many photos are included?

The Mountain Memories package includes 60 minutes of photography and includes around 60-70 photos. The Appalachian Admiration package includes 90 minutes of photography and includes 90-100 photos. The Smoky Mountain Serenity packages includes 120 minutes of photography and includes 120-140 photos. Since the Simple Remembrance package doesn’t include photography, it includes 0 photos.
