Weddings at Hinton Rural Life Center are exceptional. We offer unique options for making your special day unforgettable. Perched on a hill with sweeping views of Lake Chatuge and the surrounding mountains, Dysart Chapel is a favorite site for weddings. The chapel seats up to 100 guests and is a perfect year-round option. Hinton Center’s outdoor Labyrinth is a fabulous fair-weather wedding venue. Surrounded by the beauty of Creation in a woodland setting, the Labyrinth has a simple elegance that transforms the ceremony into a profoundly sacred experience. Receptions can be held in our Moore Hall, Dining Room, or Young Commons Building. We offer full catering services, and our executive chef will help plan the menu from start to finish.
