Smoky Mountain Notary

About

Fifty dollars is the published cash-rate starting point at Smoky Mountain Notary, which makes Betty Krachey's officiant service one of the most budget-accessible legal-wedding options in East Tennessee. The model is deliberately minimal: Sign & Go elopements for couples who want the marriage made official without an elaborate ceremony, with meeting spots around Knoxville including the Knoxville Botanical Gardens, Paschal Carter Park, the Knox County Clerk's office, and the Old Courthouse downtown. Service extends across Knox, Sevier, and Blount counties, with travel fees applying outside the base Knoxville and Carter area and referrals offered for Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge dates she cannot cover. Optional add-ons keep the day self-contained, including photos taken during the ceremony and returning the signed marriage license to the county clerk for an additional fee, a small chore that trips up plenty of eloping couples. Asked whether she marries all couples, the site answers plainly that she does and is happy to be part of the day. Email, phone, and Instagram are all public, and the same business handles notary work, including remote online notarization nationwide.
