I get a lot of questions on how to plan your Smoky Mountain wedding on a budget and there are plenty of ways to save! Here are my top three ways to save when planning a Smoky Mountain or Pigeon Forge Wedding. 

1. Use the National Park! The Smoky Mountains are beautiful, after all that's why you're getting married here right? Take advantage of the beautiful outdoors and choose your favorite spot in the Smokies!  There are restrictions and you must get a permit but it's much less expensive than a venue!
 

Are you ready for Dollywood’s newest roller coaster?  Dollywood will debut their newest ride, the Wild Eagle, on opening day, March 24.  The news has people really buzzing about this new, 21-story tall amusement ride that’s going to be a pretty awesome addition to Dollywood.  Coaster enthusiasts are saying it’s the most anticipated roller coaster in the United States in 2012! Pigeon Forge city officials and hotel owners are excited about the new attraction and are sure the Pigeon Forge and Dollywood lovers out there are going to be more than enthusiastic to check out this $20 million roller coaster.

If  you haven’t planned a trip to Pigeon Forge yet, you better get to planning! Looks like the spring and summer months are going to be packed with visitors and you don’t want to miss out on that! Get to planning your trip today!

Titanic Museum Attractions is hosting “A Night to Remember: An Original Musical Tribute to Titanic,” on Saturday, April 14, the 100th anniversary of the night the ship struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage.
