Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Wedding & Reception: Our wedding and reception will be a black-tie optional affair — a little fancy, a little fun, and a whole lot of love! We can’t wait to see everyone all dressed up for this special evening. Gentlemen: a suit or tux is just right. Ladies: a long dress is lovely, but a classy cocktail dress will do just fine. Welcome Party: We’re kicking things off with a country-casual welcome party — Nashville style! Denim, pearl snaps, and cowboy boots are encouraged (and celebrated!). But don’t worry, y’all — business casual fits right in too. Just come ready to laugh, enjoy good company, and be on Broadway.

Question

Where should I park?

Answer

Welcome Party Since ACME Feed & Seed is right on Broadway—smack dab in the middle of all the honky-tonks—there’s no dedicated parking available. We highly recommend carpooling or using a rideshare to make things easy. If you’d prefer to drive, there are several parking lots located just behind ACME, though prices can range from $25–$40 per hour, depending on the night. Wedding Day Both the Scarritt Bennett Center (ceremony) and The Parthenon (reception) offer free, dedicated parking for guests. Scarritt Bennett Center: Parking can be accessed off 18th Ave South, behind the chapel. Cars may be left overnight here and picked up Sunday morning. The Parthenon: Free parking is available on the sides and directly behind the venue. Please note that vehicles cannot be left overnight at The Parthenon.

Question

Who can I bring?

Answer

Wedding & Reception We’re so excited to celebrate with our closest friends and family! Attendance at the wedding and reception is by invitation only, and is limited to those listed on the invitation. If your invitation doesn’t include a guest but you’d like to bring someone along, just let us know — we’ll do our best to make it work! Welcome Party Y’all are invited and encouraged to join us for our Welcome Party at ACME Feed & Seed from 8–10 PM! We’ll have plenty of hors d'oeuvres and an open bar, so come hungry and ready for a good time. After the party wraps up, we’d love for y’all to stroll down Lower Broadway, grab a drink, and soak up some live music before heading back to your hotel. It’s the perfect way to kick off the weekend, Nashville-style!

Is there a hotel block?
