“When we were deciding on a venue we looked at several places in and around Knoxville we found two very common themes - barns and warehouses. While many of the locations we looked at were beautiful we wanted something fun and unique, which is how we found Zoo Knoxville. We knew that it would allow for a once in a lifetime memory for ourselves and our guests, and boy oh boy it did not disappoint. We held our ceremony in front of the elephants, the cocktail hour was in the treehouse near the gibbons, and our reception was in their event tent near Kid's Cove. The Zoo was great to work with from the beginning to the end, we had a team of coordinators to work with and they had their own catering/bar service so it was on stop shop. I can't recommend Zoo Knoxville enough if you want a unique wedding experience that your friends and family will be talking about, this venue is for you. Plus it's somewhere we can easily go back to relive all of our memories. ”

“As a wedding photographer I was SO stoked when I was hired to do a wedding here last year in 2023. There are so many different places to take pictures and so many great, colorful backdrops. The rooms are so freakin cool and unique as well. Transportation on the property is great too with all of the chauffeur, you barely have to walk around at all (which, during the summer you will want this!)”

The Pavilion at Hunter Valley Farm 

5.0

Knoxville, TN
  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

We are a family built and run business that has been in operation for over 12 years! The Pavilion was designed and built by our owner, Nancy Barger, and her dad. It's situated on her family farm and overlooks Bluegrass Lake, which is right in the heart of Knoxville! While you may only be 15 minutes from downtown, and just right off of Northshore Dr, The Pavilion offers a quiet escape on the water. Our ceremony site is surrounded by trees and looks out onto the lake, giving our ceremonies a private, natural, feeling. We are well known for our beach, which expands a large part of our front yard! The beach is amazing for elopements, cocktail hours, cookouts and photos!

Why you'll love this venue

  • Provides a dedicated team on-site
  • Multiple event spaces
  • Bridal suite on site

Venue considerations

  • Lighting and sound are not included
  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • Dance floor not included
“The site is LOVELY, and the staff are also. They treated us as special (impossible as that sounds) and helped us to have the sort of wedding reception that we could only dream about. It's a fairly expensive venue, but TOTALLY worth it if you can manage it! (P.S.: We probably are the oldest bride and groom they have ever had, but that didn't seem to matter to them one bit. Don't worry if you are non-traditional.)”
