At Cause We Can Events, we’re those wedding planners who thrive on helping non-traditional couples like you say I do in spaces that scream “let’s have a hell of a good party!”

Whether you’re dreaming of a chic downtown rooftop, a cozy greenhouse, or a funky restaurant that knows how to throw down in the kitchen, we’ve rounded up some of the coolest venues in the Greater Nashville area. Get ready to fall in love with a few spots that are anything but ordinary.

1. The Cordelle: Downtown Nashville Charm Meets Industrial Chic

2. Butcher & Bee: Foodie Heaven Meets Intimate Vibes

This East Nashville gem offers a cool, modern space paired with the kind of menu that will have your guests raving about the mezze for years. Perfect for intimate weddings where the focus is on connection, conversation, and a damn good meal.

3. Ruby Nashville: An Artful Escape

4. Le Loup: Speakeasy Sophistication

Hidden above The Optimist restaurant, Le Loup is Nashville’s worst-kept secret (and we’re so okay with that). With dark, moody vibes, velvet seating, and craft cocktails that belong in a museum, this speakeasy-style venue is perfect for couples who want their wedding to feel like an exclusive, luxe night out. Think candlelit dinners, clinking glasses, and zero beige walls.
