The Aeneas Building is a wedding and events venue in downtown Jackson, Tennessee, set inside a restored 1916 structure originally built as the sanctuary for Jackson's First Cumberland Presbyterian Church. The building was enlarged in 1966, fell into disuse in 1998, and was restored beginning in 2003, a renovation that kept the historic architecture intact while adding modern conveniences for events. The venue offers roughly 2,900 square feet of indoor space plus an outdoor courtyard and garden, accommodating up to 216 guests. Wood floors, high ceilings, and tall windows give the ballroom its character and abundant natural light, while the adjoining garden — originally planted in 1920 with flowers brought from church members' homes and later restored along with the building — provides a quieter, outdoor setting for ceremonies or photos. The venue hosts weddings, reunions, luncheons, corporate events, and styled photo sessions. Every booking includes use of the PA sound system, high-speed internet, the caterer's facility, the garden area, free guest parking, and setup and teardown of the in-house tables and chairs. Outside vendors are welcome, and the caterer's kitchen includes food warmers, a 500-pound ice machine, and an industrial refrigerator.

Chickasaw Trace Park sits on 240.5 acres northwest of Columbia, Tennessee, along the Duck River and Knob Creek. Established in 1992, the county park combines nine miles of mountain bike trails, a boat ramp, and radio-control flying and car tracks with several rentable gathering spaces suited to casual, family-friendly events. Two open-air pavilions anchor the park's event offerings: Knob Creek Pavilion, the first shelter inside the park entrance, and Hanson Pavilion, the second, both equipped with electricity, grills, water access, and restrooms, with Hanson also set beside a playground. The Derryberry Log Cabin, near the park entrance, can be rented for weddings and other celebrations. Each space is available through Maury County Parks and Recreation's reservation system, making Chickasaw Trace Park a straightforward, budget-friendly option for outdoor birthday parties, reunions, and small weddings.

Chickasaw State Park spans 1,435 acres of pine-hardwood forest in West Tennessee, built during the 1930s as one of the state's original New Deal-era parks. The Civilian Conservation Corps and Works Progress Administration developed the land, and the park takes its name from the Chickasaw Nation that once inhabited the region. Two lakes, Lake Placid and Lake LaJoie, anchor the park's recreation areas, and thirteen historic WPA cabins near Lake Placid remain in use today. For events, the park's centerpiece is the Sagamore Lodge, a stone-and-brick WPA-era building with two stone fireplaces and 1,446 square feet of space that seats up to 100 guests for weddings, family reunions, and meetings. Groups may bring in their own food, and the lodge is available year-round with central heat and air. The Group Lodge accommodates up to 36 people overnight in bunk-bed quarters with a kitchen and dining area that doubles as a meeting space, suited to retreats and organized outings. A large lakefront field on Lake Placid is also available for weddings and functions, along with three picnic pavilions that hold between 32 and 50 guests each.
