The Union Station Nashville Yards occupies a former L&N Railroad terminal at 1001 Broadway, built in 1900 in a heavy-stone Richardsonian-Romanesque style complete with a clock tower and a statue of Mercy, the Roman deity of merchants and travelers. The terminal closed in 1979, and since 1986 the building has operated as a luxury boutique hotel and special event destination, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a Historic Hotel of America. The centerpiece is the Grand Lobby, topped by a 65-foot barrel-vaulted ceiling with gold-leaf medallions and original luminous prism stained glass, and named one of the "Best Hotel Lobbies in the World" by Condé Nast Traveler. Marble floors, oak-accented woodwork, three limestone fireplaces, and gold-accented bas-relief angel figurines round out the space, which can host up to 300 guests for a reception. Beyond the lobby, the hotel offers four event venues in all, including the open-air Trestle beneath the Broadway Bridge and the covered Veranda, along with more than 11,000 square feet of meeting space across six named rooms for weddings, galas, and corporate gatherings. A dedicated events team offers menu planning, day-of coordination, and access to local vendors for weddings, including a Tie the Knot package with discounted room blocks and suite accommodations for the couple.

Scarritt Bennett Center is a nonprofit conference, retreat, and education center set on a 10-acre historic campus in Nashville. The campus began more than 100 years ago as the School for Christian Workers and today welcomes weddings, receptions, and private events alongside its ongoing mission-based programming. At the heart of the campus is Wightman Chapel, built in classic Gothic cathedral style in 1928 and designed with acoustics that resonate throughout the space. The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. preached in the chapel in 1957, and it has been featured in the PBS series "Designed for Worship" as one of the finest sacred spaces in Nashville. Couples seeking a more intimate ceremony can choose Skinner Chapel, a 20-person space with high ceilings and arched windows, or the Labyrinth Garden, a round garden holding one of only two permanent outdoor prayer labyrinths in Nashville, framed by a historic bell tower and seasonal cherry blossoms and dogwoods. For receptions, the campus offers several distinct indoor and outdoor spaces, including Susie Gray Dining Hall, the Great Lawn, and Laskey Great Hall. Catering is handled in-house under Executive Chef Joe Irwin, with plated, buffet, and passed hors d'oeuvres options for brunch, daytime, or evening events; Scarritt Bennett Center operates as an alcohol-free venue. The center describes itself as an inclusive wedding venue welcoming all couples.

Set on a quiet country road in Dickson, less than an hour from Nashville, Firefly Lane is a private event venue offering two distinct onsite spaces: The Chapel and The Barn. Together they give planners the flexibility to design anything from an intimate gathering to a large-scale celebration, all on one property. The Chapel centers on 200-year-old arched windows and grand double doors. Its open-air design pairs vaulted ceilings, wooden pews, and romantic lighting with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. Nearby, an outdoor patio with lounge seating and lawn games extends the footprint for cocktail hours, receptions, or standalone gatherings. The Barn brings a rustic-elegant counterpoint, with warm wood tones, exposed beams, and open sightlines built for larger seated events or receptions that need more room to move. Between the two venues, we offer several distinct ceremony location options across the property, from the chapel's arched entry to open lawn and garden settings, so planners can select the backdrop that best fits their event concept. A glass reception hall completes the property with floor-to-ceiling windows, handcrafted farm tables, chandeliers, and firefly lights for an elevated indoor-outdoor experience. Firefly Lane hosts 50 to 200 guests and welcomes corporate functions, galas, milestone celebrations, nonprofit fundraisers, private parties, and weddings alike. Our team manages the logistics and details so planners can focus on the vision. Ready to see it in person? Book a tour and picture your next event at Firefly Lane.
