I recently had the pleasure of visiting Front Porch Farms in Ashland City, TN. A few weeks ago, the venue was the secret location for a special wedding.  The venue sits atop a hill overlooking a gorgeous view of rolling, green countryside. I’ve got to be honest, when I first saw the view from the yard, I might’ve been speechless. And that is a feat for me.

Owners Kathy and Brian Best live in the three story antebellum house at the top of the hill and open it up each weekend to couples as they make their vows to one another. The grounds feature a 3400 square foot covered pavilion, a pool with outdoor cocktail patio, an outdoor fireplace, and a beautiful lawn with a breathtaking view.

With all of the various spaces that make up Front Porch Farms, there are several layout choices for an event. Ceremonies are often performed on the lawn overlooking the countryside or underneath a sprawling old oak tree.  Receptions usually take place in the large pavilion, which also offers absolutely stunning scenery.

 

The master suite and upstairs balcony of Kathy and Brian’s antebellum house is available for the bride to get ready for her big day. And this house is ah-mazing. The décor is chock full of vintage touches and country charm.

Towards the bottom of the hill, there is also a fully furnished guest house, where the wedding party can relax while prepping for the day. The guest house is 1400 square foot with two bedrooms and is also available to rent overnight. The barn underneath the guest house is the home of tons of cool vintage props, event supplies like candles and mason jars, tables and chairs. Many of these items are free for use at your event and others are available to rent.

The wedding package will get you the venue from 10 am – midnight so you should have plenty of time to get ready, celebrate and cut a rug — er– dance the night away. Kathy and Brian recognize the fact that their little slice of heaven is a bit of a drive from Nashville so they have partnered with Grand Avenue to provide a roundtrip shuttle for up to 56 guests. Shuttles for additional passengers can be secured for a great price.

I’m so glad I got to visit Front Porch Farms and can’t wait to work with them in the future!
