The Woodruff-Fontaine House Museum is a French Victorian mansion on Adams Avenue in Memphis, built in 1871 by carriage manufacturer Amos Woodruff and later purchased by businessman Noland Fontaine in 1883. The home remained a private residence until 1929, later housed an art school, and became a museum in 1961 through the restoration efforts of the Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities. Its rooms are furnished with period antiques that showcase Victorian domestic life in 19th-century Memphis. Weddings have been hosted on the property since 1871, and the museum now offers its Carriage House, garden, and front lawn for private events.

Balinese Ballroom occupies a building constructed in 1876 in Memphis's historic Pinch District, restored to showcase its original industrial character — exposed brick walls, wood beams, and tall arched windows. The Pinch District preserves a concentration of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century buildings that once housed the city's early commercial and residential life, giving the venue a backdrop with genuine history rather than a manufactured one. The venue offers three distinct spaces that can host events independently or together: the Downstairs Ballroom, with white-painted brick, a draped ceiling, and gold crystal chandeliers; the Upstairs Ballroom, with exposed brick and ceiling, tall windows for natural light, and Edison-bulb string lighting; and the High Point Ballroom, featuring a sunken wooden dance floor, disco ball, and a 28-foot wooden bar. Each space includes its own separate bar area and can accommodate ceremony, cocktail, or seated reception formats, allowing couples to host a ceremony and reception in the same building without changing venues. Every rental includes tables, black folding chairs, white linens, setup and breakdown, cleanup, a doorman, and free parking across three on-site lots.
