Knoxville Wedding Venues

Finding the Right Knoxville Wedding Venue

No matter what kind of wedding venue you're looking for, Knoxville has something for you. The city itself has a rich history that spans well over 200 years, making it a veritable treasure trove of historic buildings and rustic getaways, including many barns and mansions that have been retrofitted to accommodate weddings and other large events. Newer Knoxville wedding venues include the city's many event centers and banquet halls located in some of the most scenic spots the region has to offer.

Speaking of scenic, Knoxville is also home to a number of breathtaking natural wonders -including the lush Appalachian Mountains and the serene Tennessee River - that make it an excellent destination for outdoor weddings. If you are looking to make Mother Nature a central set piece in your wedding, Knoxville's several vineyards, country clubs and private estates are great places to start your search. There are also a handful of options in the nearby towns of Chattanooga and Cleveland, TN.

Travel, Lodging, and Weather Considerations for Knoxville Wedding Venues

Whether you choose to book a wedding venue in Knoxville proper or in one of eastern Tennessee's many satellite towns, making travel and lodging arrangements ahead of time will be important in ensuring that everyone on your guest list is taken care of. Though Knoxville itself is home to several wedding venues, many of the region's top wedding destinations are located an hour or more away from any major urban area. Consider researching rental cars or shuttle services to help your guests get to and from the wedding without any difficulties. Hotels in the region fall well under the national average as far as prices go, with most starting at around $100. The average wedding cost in Knoxville is also below the national average, with most estimates sitting at just over $12,000.

As many of Knoxville's top wedding destinations showcase the region's outdoor wonders, it's important to stay on top of the weather should you choose to book a venue in the region. Thankfully, all four seasons in Knoxville have relatively mild temperatures when compared to other destinations around the country. The region does get over 3 inches of precipitation every month out of the year, so rain is always a potential factor. Give yourself options by booking a venue with both outdoor and indoor accommodations on the chance that you're hit with a bit of inclement weather on your big day.
