The absolute best Nashville wedding venue

As soon as my partner and I were engaged, I knew I wanted to get married close to home in Williamson County. We toured other places, and had Zoom meetings with a few more, but nothing compared to the feeling we had when we walked through CJ's with our amazing coordinator Sidney. We knew that zero details would be missed. Planning a wedding while being long distance from each other AND the wedding venue could have been a disaster, but Sidney kept everything running on time, smoothly, with not a single hiccup in the whole planning process. She gave me bite size things to work on between our Zoom meetings, and always had the big picture in mind. And the wedding itself was absolutely breathtaking. Two months later I still have friends and family calling and texting about how absolutely spot on the entire event was because they could see me and my partner in all the details! Sidney surprised us several times during the planning process, bringing her amazing creativity to the table to take our initial ideas and blow them up into a full on event of the year. Truly, truly, truly from the bottom of our heart, thank you Sidney & CJ's!

Perfect Wedding with CJ's!

CJ's Off the Square was the perfect venue for our fall wedding. We could not have selected a more amazing place! The entire process was stress free, largely due to Brette, our planner with CJ's. She was professional, organized, kind, and enthusiastic from our first meeting all the way through our wedding day. She always responded in a timely manner and helped us with all the details. The venue itself is so beautiful and has everything you need in one place. Some of our favorite things about CJ's were the ability to customize things to make it fit our style, the small, intimate feel that it created for us and our guests, and how much is included in the package. It's such a great value and we felt very cared for by the entire team. We highly recommend CJ's Off the Square!

Without a hitch

Cj’s off the square was a wonderful choice for a venue. I was the matron of honor in an October 2023 wedding, and was with the bride for the entire planning process. We did everything over zoom, as neither of us lived in the area. As someone that has been intimately involved in planning 3 wedding at this point, I can say that CJs made it as easy as possible to do this remote planning. Sidney came prepared to meetings to discuss open items. She presented options for table scapes, vendors, and rental items. She also helped to form the overall vibe of the wedding and suggested different items that helped fit that vision. She wasn’t pushy, and from my point of view did not try to over sell anything. The day of coordination was also great, which I can attest to because as the MOH I wasn’t running around like a chicken with my head cut off doing last minute prep. Overall it was a great experience, and if anyone is on the fence about working with the team, I hope this positive review speaks for itself.
