The Perfect Spot For Our Perfect Day!!

The Cordelle is a stunning venue! We wanted a venue that was classic, timeless and beautiful and didn’t need much as far as decor. We knew the moment we stepped in we had found our spot! The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating and we loved that there was a big comfortable space for the bridal party to get ready! It was large enough to accommodate our big guest list without feeling too big, and there was a place for everyone to go-the dance floor, a beautiful southern porch for some fresh air and the gorgeous garden if they needed a little space to chill. We are so grateful to have had our reception in such a gorgeous place. It Thank you!

Such a Beautiful Venue!

I knew I wanted to book this venue before I even toured. It is such a pretty venue both inside and out. The team is also so easy to work with and helpful in answering all questions. I did add more time to reserve the space so we could start getting ready in the bridal suite at 9 am. That is an extra cost to consider if you are looking to book this for your wedding. We also used their up lighting inside and bistro lights outside as part of their military discount offering. 10/10 recommend this venue. I loved my wedding day and all the photos we've received. We did everything here from getting ready, pictures outside, ceremony (inside due to the rain that weekend) and the reception! Perfect set up for a band as well. Book it!

Incredible venue

We had the best experience with The Cordelle! The space was absolutely beautiful and made the perfect backdrop for our special day. Everything came together so well, and it truly helped make our wedding day feel perfect. We are so happy we chose this venue and would definitely recommend it to anyone planning a wedding!

Amazing venue

Not only was the Cordelle the most beautiful venue, the reason we picked it was because of the attention to detail and organization. From the start, the Cordelle staff was super attentive, communicative, and truly cared about our experience. We ended up using a lot of their preferred vendors as well and our wedding went so incredibly smoothly! The coordinators and everyone we talked with was very kind and they took away alot the stress of planning a wedding because I knew we were in good hands. Would recommend ten times over!

The best venue!

We could not have asked for kinder staff or a more beautiful venue for our wedding! The Cordelle was the second venue my husband and I toured and as soon as we arrived we knew it was the place for us. We were greeted by name by the staff member (I believe her name was Devon) and were taken around the space on a private tour. We knew we wanted to have a venue with indoor and outdoor space since the weather in Nashville in early November tends to be pretty mild. Sadly it rained on our wedding day but thankfully there was plenty of room for our 140 guests inside and on the porch! We had a tent in the garden but most of our guests opted for seats on the porch or inside.

The indoor space is a blank canvas just waiting for your vision. We opted for minimal decor, using greenery/florals, candles, and bistro lights, and to us it was perfect! We had a nine-piece band (set up on the floor with no stage) in the Great Hall and reserved the Victorian for soft seating and bistro tables. Even with the band playing at top volume our guests sitting in the Victorian could converse comfortably. One of my favorite spaces in the whole venue is the Loft, it was one of the selling points for me during our tour! It’s perfect for getting ready, taking those small moment photos, and serving as a quiet place to recharge when you need it. My husband and I returned to the Loft right after the ceremony so that we could sit with each other for a moment and eat dinner before greeting our guests during their dinner hour.

We couldn’t recommend the Cordelle (or its other properties - we had our rehearsal dinner at the Estelle in East) and its staff more for anyone planning a special event.

The Cordelle is absolutely stunning!

We recently had our wedding at the Cordelle and I can't say enough about how gorgeous the building is. The space is absolutely stunning if you like a vintage Nashville feel. It is close to downtown without the hustle and bustle. The staff is amazing, and the upstairs loft with private dressing room was perfect for our bridal party to get ready in and for romantic first look photos. The space is so beautiful which was the most important to me so that minimal decor is needed. Plus, the venue left a little gift for our bridal party, and it's those detail that made our day amazing!

Wonderful experience!

Such a beautiful venue and an incredible team to work with! We had our ceremony outside and our reception indoors. It was so spacious and beautiful! I got ready for the big day in the upstairs loft and it was so airy, peaceful, and relaxed- just the way I wanted to start my wedding day! The folks at The Cordelle are incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful- I am so grateful to have had them to work with in cultivating the perfect wedding day! :)

The perfect space

Where do I even begin?! As soon as I toured this venue, it took my breath away. It's absolutely stunning with a variety of spaces to gather. Everyone that works here was so friendly, responsive, and helpful. All of my guests raved over this venue on how beautiful, intimate and cozy it was. Thank you for having us and allowing us to create the most precious memories in this space!

Beautiful Venue

We knew fairly early on that we wanted to use The Cordelle. They were accommodating of our requests and have a purely a la carte system. You book the venue, then add the things you want. You aren't given things you don't need and have them thrown into the rental cost. The venue itself is beautiful, even with minimal decorations. We booked a Friday in mid-winter to save on costs, and it turned out great! Highly recommended!

Beautiful Venue

We knew we didn't want a lot of decorations as we were trying to reduce costs and waste. The Cordelle was the PERFECT place. The venue already has so much beauty and character, so you don't need to add much to make it a romantic space for a wedding. They worked with us and even helped us find our other vendors, which took so much stress off our plates. Our guests complimented the space endlessly. Not to mention, they gave us the sweetest little gift on the day of our wedding. I would recommend this group to everyone. Plus, they are opening up a second, larger space soon!
