4 Reasons You Should Come Rafting Before Your Wedding in the Smoky Mountains
The Great Smoky Mountains are one of the most beautiful locations for a destination wedding in the country! With winding rivers and valleys to gorgeous mountain peaks, you are guaranteed a breathtaking ceremony when you decide to spend your special day in the Smokies. If you’re wondering what to do before the wedding, you should bring your whole group whitewater rafting on the Pigeon River! Here are 4 reasons why you should come rafting before your wedding in the Smoky Mountains:
1. It’s a Unique Bachelor or Bachelorette Activity
Instead of heading to cities like Vegas or Nashville for a bachelor or bachelorette party, come spend some time on the river in Gatlinburg. This unique experience will be something you never forget! If you’re renting a cabin in the mountains for your weekend, you’ll only be a short drive from our outpost. When you arrive, our guides will meet you and lead your group on an awesome whitewater adventure! You’ll be glad you abandoned traditional bachelor and bachelorette activities for this experience!
2. Your Wedding Party Will Love it
Bring your groomsmen, bridesmaids, friends, family and more on an awesome whitewater rafting excursion before your wedding in the Smoky Mountains! Everyone will love getting to come together as a group and spend a day on the water. If you have a group of 10 or more coming, we offer great group rates and deals! You could even bring your flower girls and ring bearers, as we offer rafting for children as young as 3! Whether you’re coming with a wedding party who are all experienced in whitewater rafting, or it’s everyone’s first time, you will all have a blast!
3. You Can Enjoy a Relaxing Day Outdoors
