EPIC Event Centre 
Gallatin, TN
  • Up to 700 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

We are not another business, like a farm, a country club, or historic site that also does events occasionally. Special events ARE our business. After starting his own catering company, Chef Christopher immediately knew he wanted to own his own event venue. In 2011, EPIC Event Centre opened. Now it's all about every little detail! Chef Christopher's wife, Brenda, quickly fell in love with being an entrepreneur and become the CEO of the company. Two of their sons now work in the kitchen and one son is in sales and operations. Running a family business wasn't their original intention, it just happened naturally. But "the family" doesn't stop with just the Newtons. All our team members quickly become family! We tend to attract very passionate and detail oriented staff members whose #1 goal is to meet and exceed your expectations. We all love what we do and it shows.

It’s been a year since we got married at The Pick Inn and never once do we reflect and regret anything! Amanda and her awesome staff did an amazing job. They placed everything so perfectly from the chairs and pergola arrangements and all the odds and ends I brought. They made the day run smoothly, I actually noticed zero wedding day hiccups. So kuddos to the team if there were any. We could not have had the wedding we did without Amanda, their vendor recommendations, and the beautiful venue itself! People still talk to me about how beautiful the venue was a year later. It is truly so dreamy and peaceful. Amanda was always available for questions that we had, which was super helpful as an anxious bride to be! My husband and I are so thankful that we found The Pick Inn and if we were able, we would do it all again (but only at The Pick Inn). :)

Located in Joelton, TN, Hachland Hill is a charming hotel wedding venue. Just minutes away from downtown Nashville, this peaceful oasis is an idyllic location. Steeped in historic and culinary history, this is a truly authentic Nashville experience. Situated on 80 acres of wooded, lush land, Hachland Hill offers couples a variety of choices when it comes to their celebration. Journeying through the property, you will find rippling, melodic creeks, magical woodlands, and unique event spaces that exude tranquility and enchantment. This venue can accommodate everything from intimate gatherings under cover of towering trees to grand celebrations of up to 300 people in the rustic barn. and creek-side patio. From the ceremony location options, spaces for the reception, and overnight accommodations, your wedding transitions beautifully throughout the property.

Dream Venue - Peaceful, Unique, Beyond Gorgeous, Awesome Hachland Hill was an incredible venue for our February wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, easy, and they reached out to us frequently via email, text, and phone to check in as we planned our big day. When we booked them 4 years in advance, they stayed in close contact to ensure everything was on track. Even though it was a bit chilly for our winter wedding, they brought in heaters to keep our guests comfortable. The venue itself was even more amazing in person than the photos had suggested - the space was beautiful and the service was impeccable. The entire Hachland Hill team went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly special. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and highly recommend them to any couple looking for an unforgettable wedding experience. We had our Winter Wedding here on 2/29/2024 - beyond blessed with our experience! We planned and booked this venue four years prior and we had the first winter wedding. We visited a few times over the years in all seasons and everytime the venue was so well maintained and a showpiece. The staff was awesome and understanding of adjustments (heaters...lol) Menu choices and actual food was YUMMY... we got the cookbook 'The Hachland Hill Cookbook: The Recipes & Legacy of Phila Hach' and it was so unique to see the stories and recipes alive in the venue. We rented the Spring Creek Inn and was happy to have that as an oasis from the planning and doings that goes into the wedding day. Yes the decor was dated, but that is exactly what I expected with a rustic venue with cabin/wood/historical features. The nature and scenic backdrop that is always surrounding you is magical. My groom/hubby is a hunter at heart... I jokingly said I put him in the middle of a deer stand with all the fixings of a wedding for me. I truly can't say enough about this venue... Hachland Hill made our wedding day perfect and memorable. 10/10 recommend **Note: when looking at pics remember that it was a February wedding... the place is even more stunning is Spring, Summer, and Fall**

The Ruby Cora

Adams, TN
  • Up to 225 guests

  • Starts at $5,500

The Ruby Cora is not a Barn, she is a newly designed, clean lined, industrial, studio space, flooded in natural light. The Ruby Cora sits in the midst of a manicured Century Farm of approximately 140 acres, located 40 minutes from Nashville, 5 minutes from Clarksville. Our guests tell us that a feeling of total tranquility occurs when the pull into our property. We are kindly referred to as 'A Modern Space in a Quiet Place'. The elevation of our property gives wedding couples the most stunning sunsets. The Ruby Cora provides gorgeous views and simple elegance. Your wedding day will be full of treasured moments.

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!

Woodland Hollow at Annie Acres is one of Nashville's most inspiring spaces which beautifully displays Tennessee's rustic charm and grace. The barn is nestled in the wooded hills of Annie Acres, a friendly family farm providing a delightful enchanted forest backdrop for your perfect southern wedding.

We do not require specific in-house vendors or services, so your wedding is completely yours to customize and allows you to be in control of your budget. We'd love to host the Wedding Day of your dreams!

We have never met such kind and helpful people until we came across the Woodland Hollow team. My now husband and I knew NOTHING about weddings when we got engaged, but we saw the barn and fell in love with it. Kelly, Mairead, Wendy and the rest of the family took care of the rest, asking us our opinion all throughout the experience. We gave them virtually unlimited creative freedom and they still managed to hold true to OUR vision and produce a perfect day that we will always remember. If you want a beautiful, fun, unique, rustic yet modern day to celebrate with your loved ones, I promise there is no better place. Hazel the goat may also may an appearance if you visit the venue and she is arguably the best part. Thank you guys!

Newly built venue in 2024… family owned and operated. Country setting but elegantly designed. We can seat up to 200 capacity. We installed black elegant glass doors to open during beautiful weather. Enjoy the nature scenery around you during your time with us.

Cassie and Danny Dennis at Silent Grove were an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication was always prompt, helpful and friendly, which made planning our wedding day a breeze. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful - very spacious, warm and intimate. They went out of their way to ensure everything was neat and taken care of, even drying the benches outside when it rained that morning. They also offered assistance for my mother, who was in a wheelchair, to easily access the outdoor area. I would highly recommend Silent Grove to any couple looking for a wonderful wedding venue with an attentive and accommodating staff. We had such a special day and would definitely use their venue again.
