The food was so loved by the guests, I loved how flexible the beverage packages were, and the venue just looked gorgeous with minimal decor and their awesome lights. We had 77 guests and it was the perfect size but I think even 30 more would have fit great.

The venue is GORGEOUS and the pricing was affordable! We had our wedding on a Thursday afternoon in May and it was everything I’ve dreamt of. Very accommodating and they have adorable vintage furniture (INCLUDED in pricing!!) All I had to provide aside from the vendors was a guestbook! And my bouquet/boutineers and such. It’s a quiet and cute little area out in the countryside about 20 mins west of Columbia,TN. They were there for me when I was stressed/throughout the day. Offered me tips on relaxing. Always reassuring me that they have things under control, and made sure that I did not lift a finger. Not only that but the connection we made with the family was as if we’ve known them forever and I truly cannot express how grateful I am to have been able to spend our special day at this venue/with this family. Nancy & Kelly were there to comfort me when everyone left early and I couldn’t be more grateful for the love and care they showed throughout the entire process. From viewing the venue to booking all the way up until the end of the wedding day! Such a perfect venue and praise God for bringing me here.

14TENN was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. From the beginning, their communication was excellent - they responded quickly to all of our questions and made sure we had all the information we needed. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a spacious and flexible layout that can work for any type of wedding theme or style. We got so many compliments from our guests on the gorgeous backdrop and Nashville location. We added on the partial planning package. We would definitely recommend at least doing the month-of coordination package! That is when we really felt the money spent on the planning was worth every penny, as it ensured the event ran smoothly from start to finish. They have draping and in house decor that can be rented as well! And everything worked out so well with their in-house beverage package.
