Tucked less than a mile from Broadway and Music City Center, The Cordelle feels like a lush Italian villa hidden in the heart of Downtown Nashville. Step through the gate and the city falls away: a private garden unfolds beneath the sweeping branches of a hundred-year-old tree, framed by flowering crape myrtles and tall evergreens. Welcome guests on the Garden Lawn for an open-air reception, or host cocktails on the Covered Porch as the sun sets over the garden. Then move inside to The Victorian, one of the last remaining historic homes in Downtown Nashville, where original brick walls, tall windows, and candlelight create a warm, memorable setting for dinner. The Victorian opens directly into The Great Hall, so your event flows easily from one space to the next. Seated dinners can stretch from the historic home into the hall, while soaring ceilings, strings of lights, and glass doors framing views of the garden make The Great Hall ideal for presentations, entertainment, or an after-dinner party. Above it all, the private Loft, with its own lounge, wet bar, and restroom, works beautifully as a VIP lounge, green room, or space for small breakout meetings. Together, the garden, porch, and connected indoor spaces create a distinctive setting for corporate dinners, client receptions, holiday parties, company celebrations, and private events of up to 350 guests for a standing reception. Included parking for Friday evening, Saturday, and Sunday events means your guests enjoy all the convenience of downtown with none of the hassle. If you're planning an event in Nashville that feels far from the typical hotel ballroom, The Cordelle offers something truly memorable. Schedule a tour and see it for yourself!

Oh darling, Clementine Hall is a one of a kind, just like you. Just a two-step away from downtown Nashville. Your heart will skip a beat when you see her beauty, but it's so much more than just skin deep. Included amenities give you the convenience to easily create your boutique wedding, without the hassles of a bare bones venue or the restrictions of an all-inclusive venue. Clementine Hall is a smashing wedding and event venue where friends, family and hangers-on have been gathering, celebrating, falling in love and sometimes getting drunk, since 1889. Lovingly restored and renovated indoor and outdoor spaces provide a brilliant foundation to express your individuality, so when your wedding, event or concert is over, you’ll be gone but not forgotten. As with our original venue, Ruby, we can never divulge the origin of her name; it will only ruin your imagination. Clementine Hall was redesigned and rebuilt in 2018, 130 years after its original construction, by the designers of Ruby, which has been a staple of the Hillsboro Village neighborhood adjacent to Vanderbilt University since 2011. Clementine itself anchors the historic section of Sylvan Park that borders The Nations neighborhood. Clementine is near pretty much everything in Nashville. Clementine Hall is among the very finest wedding, corporate, music, and non-profit venues in Nashville. Two large, distinctive interior spaces, three dressing rooms, a private outdoor courtyard and large catering kitchen check all boxes. Perhaps because we are in Music City, we chose to deliver the most comprehensive, integrated audio, video and lighting systems of all Nashville venues. And because we own the property, we were able to restore the building to an exceptional level of quality. After all, we think of ourselves as architects, designers and engineers. We truly understand that most people who wish to plan an event are starting from scratch. You may need to become an event expert in short order. To assist in that effort, we think that you'll find all of the information you seek about Clementine Hall here on our website. This includes our rates, dates, FAQs, and even a blog that covers architecture, design and what we think makes our venues unique in the Nashville market and how to go about selecting your venue. What should you expect from us at Clementine? It's an important question to ask of an independent venue. We believe in simplifying the venue experience for our clients at every opportunity - and once you begin planning, you will likely become an ardent proponent of this philosophy. Freedom to achieve a boutique, one-of-a-kind event is another tenant we hold dear. And of course integrating all of the complex audio, lighting and other systems into our design is our hallmark. We hope to see you for a tour Clementine Hall soon.
