The Ruby Cora is an amazing venue! Marcia and her team went above and beyond for us. We rented the space for 2 days over Memorial weekend. I highly recommend a 2 day rental. It made things so much easier and reduced stress significantly. It allowed more time for our family and friends to hang out and see each other during set up and tear down. We had family and friends come from 16 different states and other countries. Marcia and her team made us feel at home and helped make the weekend magical! The weather was beautiful for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, but the weather took a nasty turn the morning of the wedding. We lost power 1st thing that morning. The power remained off until about 5 minutes before the ceremony. Marcia and her team got us to a place with power to get ready and jumped in to make the changes from an outdoor to indoor ceremony. The weather cleared up for the ceremony and reception, and everything was more than I could ever dream. My guests did not even suspect the challenges we faced with the inclement weather. I am still getting calls about how amazing the weekend was and how much they loved the venue! If you want to find a place that makes you feel like family and cares about making your day magical, the Ruby Cora is the place for you!

First of all, the grounds are gorgeous, and having the Cumberland River as the backdrop for our ceremony was absolutely perfect. The building is also beautiful, with plenty of space for our 100 person guest list. There are also spacious bridal and groom's suites. We loved that we were able to have an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception without having to change locations. There is also plenty of space for parking.

About wedding venues in Tennessee

Tennessee pairs idyllic mountain backdrops with Southern hospitality; creating an inviting blend of natural beauty and warmth for your celebration. You'll immediately feel the distinctive charm that makes this state so special for couples looking to tie the knot in a place that feels both majestic and welcoming.

## What Makes Tennessee Wedding Venues Unique?

Tennessee venues showcase the state's distinct character through an impressive range of settings. You'll find mountain retreats like The Magnolia in Pigeon Forge where panoramic views create breathtaking ceremony backdrops and riverside celebrations at The Trillium in Sevierville that bring natural elegance to your special day. From rustic barns with exposed beams to elegant manor houses with rich history, your options are wonderfully diverse. All these venues are enhanced by Tennessee's natural landscapes; think rolling mountains, winding rivers and lush woodlands that frame your celebration in authentic Southern beauty.

## How Much Do Tennessee Wedding Venues Cost?

The average Tennessee wedding venue costs $7,110 which is significantly more affordable than many other popular wedding destinations. You'll typically find prices ranging from $6,390 to $7,810 compared to the national range that runs $6,500-$12,000. This means your dollar stretches further while still securing a memorable location.

For different guest counts expect these average total wedding costs: small weddings with 50 guests run about $18,652 while medium-sized celebrations with 100 guests average $31,008. Larger gatherings with 150 guests typically cost $42,626 and 200-guest weddings average $53,014.

Your specific vision and venue choice will obviously influence these figures.

## When Should You Book Your Tennessee Venue?

Most Tennessee couples book their venues 10 months ahead; about 318 days before the big day. You'll want to note that October sees the highest number of wedding inquiries which reveals strong demand for fall ceremonies. This timing makes perfect sense since Tennessee's autumn foliage creates spectacular natural backdrops with rich reds oranges and yellows that can transform even simple venues into magical settings. Planning ahead is especially important if you're dreaming of a fall wedding.
