A piece of history… The Cool Springs House has a long and colorful history. In 1830, James and Penelope Barfield Carothers built the original two log rooms of the Cool Springs House located at what is presently the intersection of Mallory Lane and Cool Springs Boulevard. Many years later, the house had major renovations done to it by adding the second story, the downstairs hall, and the front porch.

“Let me tell you - CSH was EXACTLY what I was looking for on my big day. It is a beautiful blank canvas for any brides who have a specific vision (um, hi. im the problem its me). The venue is stunning, it's unique and spacious and feels so personal and the staff are exactly as helpful as you need them to be!! I am someone who prefers to have folks out of my hair who just let me goooooo. And they really were that. The venue was also more affordable for the whole weekend than the other places I looked at for 6hrs. Which made the entire difference to me.”

“From the moment we stepped onto the property for our initial tour, we knew that Estelle was the perfect place to host our October 2026 wedding. We loved all the spaces indoors & in the front yard. The venue has so much character that we felt we didn't have to bring in a ton of decor/flowers to make it feel gorgeous & romantic on wedding day. The tables, chairs, plates, glassware, linens, bars, everything that was included made it feel worth the investment. The bridal suite & groom suite were both gorgeous with plenty of space, light, & everything we needed to have a calm morning before the ceremony. We loved the venue so much we even paired down our guest list so we could make sure we could have it at Estelle (95 max capacity). We hosted 85 guests & it felt like the perfect amount of space for everyone. Sarah was very helpful & responsive from the inquiry phase through wedding day, which was really comforting as an out-of-town bride. Thank you to Estelle & the whole team!”
