Chapel at the Park is a wedding venue on a 3-acre estate bordering the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Couples can choose from five distinct ceremony settings on the property: an indoor Chapel Sanctuary, a two-story man-made waterfall tucked into the mountainside, a white gazebo, a wooden outdoor arbor with forest views, and an Enchanted Forest space anchored by a crystal chandelier. Ceremonies range from brief elopements for two to full celebrations for up to 60 family and friends, and the venue's own Chapel at the Park Event Center hosts on-site receptions, including an Intimate Reception room for up to 40 guests and a DIY Reception option for guests who want to bring in their own food and beverages. Packages are built around in-house minister services, professional photography, and wedding cake design, so couples can plan a ceremony without coordinating outside vendors. The chapel is also home to Midnight, a resident rescue cat who often makes an appearance in ceremonies and photos.

Marble Springs State Historic Site preserves the final home and farm of John Sevier, Tennessee's first governor, across more than 30 wooded acres in Knoxville. The property takes its name from the picturesque springs on the grounds and the Tennessee "pink marble" once quarried nearby, and it includes a collection of period structures — a tavern, kitchen, cabin, loom house, and spring house — alongside nature trails and picnic areas that give the site an authentic 18th-century backdrop for gatherings. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and recognized with an Award of Excellence and Commendation from the Tennessee Association of Museums, the site pairs that historic setting with genuine flexibility for private events. Its rural woodlands, meadows, and streams have hosted weddings and ceremonies, receptions, family picnics, company events, and birthday parties, offering hosts a natural, historically rich setting rather than a conventional event hall. The Governor John Sevier Memorial Association maintains the property, which has also served as an educational resource for area school children for more than 50 years and is a certified wildlife habitat.

Founded in 1927, Holston Hills Country Club is a historic private club set on 180 acres of rolling terrain along the Holston River, home to one of the most authentic Donald Ross golf course designs in the country. The Tudor-style clubhouse sits on a hill overlooking the course and the Great Smoky Mountains in the distance, giving the property a storied, old-world character that has hosted championship golf since Byron Nelson's win at the 1945 Knoxville Open. For weddings and private celebrations, the clubhouse's historic ballroom is the club's signature event space, with soaring 30-foot ceilings, exposed wood trusses, two oversized fireplaces, and a hardwood dance floor. A wraparound terrace just off the ballroom looks out over the fairways and mountains beyond, giving couples and guests a scenic backdrop for photographs and outdoor moments between indoor celebrations. Holston Hills' event team works with couples and hosts from initial planning through the final toast, and the club also hosts golf outings, corporate gatherings, and milestone celebrations such as birthdays, anniversaries, and showers. The property is part of the McConnell Golf portfolio of private clubs across the Southeast.
