The White Dove Barn is a one-of-a-kind, sleek and classy barn that will serve as the backdrop to the wedding of your dreams. It is bathed in white and located among stunningly gorgeous hills. Our barn has two sets of glass french doors that lead out to an 80-foot long covered terrace that is decorated with soft lighting and built specifically for people who enjoy watching the sun set. While the groom and his entourage spend the special day in the gents' room, the bride and her bridesmaids can unwind and get ready in the elegant bridal suite. The catering part of the barn, which has an ice machine, refrigerator, and industrial sink, will provide enough space for your caterer to prepare food as well. Up to 250 guests may be accommodated in the White Dove Barn. The White Dove Barn, in contrast to most other barn settings, offers twenty-two custom-made, exquisitely white-washed farm tables, white wooden chairs, and a gorgeous hand-crafted bar that can be used both inside and outside. After renting the space, these are for the couple's own use. There is also enough room for a lovely outdoor wedding or celebration. The barn, however, has year-round climate control, including heat and air conditioning, so the weather will never ruin your celebrations. We would be delighted to show you our extremely special area by opening our magnificent 12-foot-high white barn doors. In Tennessee, there isn't another barn like it. To believe it, you just must see it. We only provide tours by appointment. We anticipate receiving your phone or email. One of Nashville's top wedding locations, The White Dove Barn, is waiting for you!

The Arts Center of Cannon County occupies an 18,000-square-foot facility set right next to the Stones River, surrounded by rolling hills in a quiet Cannon County valley. From galleries to a large event hall to a classroom space, the building offers a range of settings for private events alongside its regular season of theatrical productions, concerts, and art exhibitions. For events, the Arts Center rents out three distinct spaces. Cannon Hall is the largest, a 2,600-square-foot dining hall with 30-foot ceilings suited to receptions, seated dinners, and dances for up to a few hundred guests. The Marly Berger Gallery serves as the building's main lobby and gallery, an open, intimate space well suited to a small soiree with hors d'oeuvres among rotating local artwork. The Austin Jennings Classroom, the newest addition to the facility, features a large mirror wall and hardwood floors, making it a fit for dance classes or an intimate gathering.
