The Historic Sam Davis Home and Plantation sits on 168 acres in Smyrna, Tennessee, where a Greek Revival home built in the early 1800s anchors a property that includes a second historic home, several outbuildings, a family cemetery, and Stewart's Creek winding along the grounds. Wedding parties are drawn to the setting's range of backdrops, from the shaded Backyard beneath large magnolia and maple trees to the tin-roof White Barn favored for elopements and small ceremonies. For ceremonies, the Historic Home's brick aisle-way and porch serve as a naturally decorated altar for larger gatherings, while the Creekside location — with built-in benches overlooking Stewart's Creek — suits intimate weddings of 50 guests or fewer. The Creek House offers a working gas fireplace, hardwood floors, and a full kitchen for receptions, rehearsal dinners, and business luncheons, and can double as a bridal suite for full-site rentals, with the nearby Ed Building serving as a groomsmen room. The wrap-around Veranda, lined with ceiling fans and lights, adds a covered reception space overlooking the Backyard. Couples and event hosts may bring their own catering and vendors, and alcohol service is permitted with an ABC-licensed bartender on site. A large paved lot and multiple parking fields accommodate bigger events, and the historic home itself can be opened for self-guided tours during parties for an additional fee.

Cool Springs House is a restored 1830s log home in Brentwood, Tennessee, now operated by the City of Brentwood at Crockett Park. The house was built by the Carothers family, one of middle Tennessee's largest log homes at the time, and expanded in the 1870s with added halls and a Victorian front porch. A 1974 restoration by Karen and John Noel uncovered the original blue-poplar log construction beneath later coverings, work that earned the property a place on the National Register of Historic Sites in 1983. Today the venue hosts more than 100 events a year, offering exclusive use of the house and surrounding grounds for weddings, elopements, showers, rehearsal dinners, corporate events, and celebrations of life. The venue books only one event per day, so clients have private access to the full property without a competing party on site. Guest counts run up to 150 across the house and grounds, with the option to add a tent on the lawn for larger outdoor gatherings. Upstairs, the Private Event Loft offers a more intimate setting for up to 50 guests, centered on a historic 22-foot table, and can serve as a standalone space for private dinners and showers or as an add-on to a ceremony held on the main level. The property includes an on-site kitchen, two changing suites, and an open vendor policy that allows clients to bring in their own caterer or licensed vendors of choice.
