The Emerald Clarksville was an absolute lifesaver for our wedding. When our previous venue was lost due to flooding just 4 days before the big day, the team at The Emerald immediately offered to host our wedding on the same date and time, and even allowed us to keep all of our already booked vendors. They were incredibly easy to work with throughout the entire process, and we felt so comfortable and at home in their elegant, clean, and very spacious event space. Our guests raved about the beautiful venue, and we are so grateful that The Emerald was there to save the day. I would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a stress-free, gorgeous wedding experience.

We had our wedding at Front Porch Farms on May 10th, 2025, and I can't say enough about how amazing not only the venue was but also how helpful Kathy Best was in planning and execution. The venue is unparalleled in its awe sitting atop of a hill/mountain with amenities such as a bridal suite, pavilion, grooms cottage and more. The landscape in addition to the detail-oriented decorations as set by Kathy heightened the ambience to a new level. Every guest at the wedding remarked on how beautiful and perfect the venue was. Furthermore, Kathy Best is truly the best. One conversation with her reveals that she has years of experience event planning, which is so comforting for someone (me) who knows nothing about weddings. Her humility, hospitality, attention-to-detail, punctuality, kindness, and work ethic made the planning process and event execution a joy. Additionally, her event staff on the day-off were so helpful and professional. I highly recommend booking your wedding at Front Porch Farms and hiring Kathy Best as your planner. From top to bottom, it was a pleasure!

Kelsey and her team went above and beyond with decorations to make sure everything was perfect. The value for what's included in their wedding packages is fantastic. For the price, you get a gorgeous outdoor ceremony and reception site, tables/chairs, linens, lighting, and coordinating services. We could not have asked for a better venue or team to work with.

Burdoc Farms has been owned and operated by the Shepherd family since 1942. With over 650 acres of open fields there are 2 different venues on the property for weddings. In 2012, the Shepherds hosted a wedding on the family farm. All the guests talked about was how beautiful the farm was and how they should be doing weddings full time. The Shepherd family converted the tobacco-cattle barn into a reception barn with all the amenities; bathrooms, kitchen, and electricity. The Shepherd family painstakingly rehabbed and recycled all of the materials in both barns to enhance and preserve the authenticity of the buildings. After converting the Tobacco Barn, they booked 24 weddings and then the next year they booked 38 weddings. In 2016, they decided to expand the business and build a year-round building, Keith Glen, in another location of the farm. Burdoc Farms hosts 60 to 80 weddings a year with couples coming from all over the country and a few from overseas!
