When Hurricane Helene struck Western North Carolina, wedding planner Anna Britt of Asheville Weddings & Events
found herself caught between devastated venues, stranded couples, and an industry on pause.

In this episode, Anna joins host Alex Jarbo at Engadine Inn & Cabins to share how she navigated canceled ceremonies, rescheduled celebrations, and the emotional toll of rebuilding her business after the storm.

Anna reflects on:

  • What it was like losing all communication during the hurricane
  • How couples and vendors adapted in the aftermath
  • The comeback of Asheville’s destination wedding scene
  • Why she’s optimistic heading into the new season

Whether you’re a local business owner, engaged couple, or simply inspired by stories of resilience, Anna’s perspective offers hope and a reminder that Asheville is open—and love always finds a way.
