  Belle Meade Historic Site & Winery sits on roughly 30 acres just minutes from downtown Nashville, on grounds that once served as a 19th-century thoroughbred horse farm internationally recognized for its legacy of Southern hospitality. The estate's Greek Revival mansion and boxwood garden, shaded by centuries-old magnolia trees, provide a historic backdrop for wedding ceremonies, while six historic structures across the property give planners a range of settings to choose from for receptions and private events. For receptions, the Carriage House offers a climate-controlled space with exposed wood and historic brickwork, accommodating up to 200 guests for dinner and dancing. A tented option with solid flooring is also available, serving as a cocktail area, seated dinner space, or rain-plan backup for the same guest count. An on-site game court with bocce ball, horseshoes, cornhole, croquet, and a putting green gives guests something to do during cocktail hour. Belle Meade Historic Site is also home to Belle Meade Winery, and its private-events team includes an on-site executive chef and culinary staff, sommeliers, and bourbon stewards for evening events and celebrations that go beyond the standard wedding format.

  • Spaces for 50-150 Guests
  • 1 Barn
  • 1 Outdoor
  • 3 Total Spaces

  Bluff Mountain Inn is a five-acre private estate in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, part of the Bluff Mountain Weddings collection, which has hosted weddings in the area for nearly 20 years. The property is built around a full-weekend destination wedding experience, giving couples exclusive access to the entire estate rather than a single room or day. The centerpiece is the Barn, a 2,400-square-foot covered space with open-air windows on three sides and sides that roll down for weather protection, making it suited to both indoor and outdoor-style receptions for up to 150 guests. It's outfitted with a serving station, chairs, tables, linens, audio equipment, outdoor heaters, ceiling fans, a vintage chandelier, and a stage area for a DJ or band. For ceremonies, the Country Chapel offers a more traditional setting: built in 2007 and modeled after the vintage chapels of Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountains, it seats around 75 people in pews imported from a church in West Virginia. Smaller gatherings of 50 or fewer can use the climate-controlled Garden Reception Room, which opens through large doors onto a deck that can double as a dance floor. Beyond the event spaces, the estate includes a private bridal suite for hair and makeup, a groom's lounge with a bar, game room, and pool table, and on-site lodging with six bedrooms and six bathrooms so the wedding party can stay through the weekend.

  Historic Sam Davis Home and Plantation

  1399 Sam Davis Rd, Smyrna, TN 37167, USA

  • Spaces for 50-400 Guests
  • 1 Barn
  • 3 Outdoor Spaces
  • 1 Waterfront

  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.
