Helton Creek Falls - Waterfall Wedding Location
A Spectacular Waterfall Wedding Location in North GeorgiaHelton Creek Falls
Helton Creek Waterfalls is our favorite Waterfall Wedding ceremony site if you are staying in Blairsville, Hiawassee, Blue Ridge, and Morganton in northernmost North Georgia towns!
Why?
First, Helton Creek Falls is located on the northern side of Blood Mountain making it the closest falls to Hiawassee, Blairsville, Blue Ridge and Morganton.
Second, there are actually two locations at Helton Creek Falls that are suitable for intimate weddings. The Lower Falls work well for elopements and small weddings where the bride and groom want to get in the water for photos. The upper falls feature a large observation deck allowing for weddings of up to 10 guests. This is our “go-to” location you have those considering our Family Waterfall Package.
Third, the hike to the falls is fairly short (200 yards) and moderate in difficulty. This makes it easy for most people to access the falls. However, if anyone on your guest list is handicapped or has mobility issues be sure to talk to The Waterfall Wedding Experts so we can suggest other waterfall wedding locations for you!
Finally, this location is in the National Forest meaning there is no venue charge.
We typically meet our couples at nearby Vogel State Park an hour before the schedule time of the wedding. This allows us all to caravan to the falls. Parking is limited at Helton Falls, so try to carpool.
NOTE: There is NO cell service at Helton Creek… it is a very remote location. Make sure you stick with our caravan to the falls or you may never find us!
