Date: October 15th, 2023
Location: Parker Mill, Whittier, NC

Nestled deep in the Smoky Mountains, Sarah and Simon’s wedding at the Parker Mill was the perfect fall celebration—full of color, heart, and a dancefloor that stayed packed from start to finish. With crisp mountain air and autumn leaves everywhere you looked, this day was made for memories.

Ceremony in the Smokies
Officiated by Leslie, the ceremony took place on the open-air deck with the river flowing gently nearby. I provided mic support and curated a soft, acoustic-driven prelude mix to match the serene setting. As Sarah walked down the aisle, the moment felt effortless—natural beauty all around, and genuine emotion leading the way.

Cocktail Hour by the Water
Guests gathered riverside for cocktail hour, soaking in the mountain views and golden-hour light. I kept the energy light and joyful with a playlist of indie classics, acoustic covers, and warm, feel-good tracks that complemented the Smoky Mountain backdrop perfectly.

Reception – Full-Scale Celebration
When it came time to party, Sarah and Simon’s people didn’t hesitate. We launched into a dancefloor set that blended pop, funk, throwbacks, and a few special requests from the couple that made the night feel uniquely theirs. The transitions were tight, the dancefloor stayed full, and Parker Mill’s rustic elegance set the perfect scene for an unforgettable night.

The Takeaway
As an Asheville Wedding DJ, there’s something about mountain weddings in October that hits different—and Sarah and Simon’s day at Parker Mill was the kind of celebration you don’t forget. Big hearts, big music, and a dancefloor that never missed a beat.
