The setting
“We had a small wedding and got married in the winter, but the conservatory let in all the natural light and gave us a view of the beautiful snow.”

Amenities couples mention
“The property is a visual dream: wide open fields, beautifully restored barn architecture, cozy getting-ready spaces, and thoughtful details everywhere you look.”
“We had a small wedding and got married in the winter, but the conservatory let in all the natural light and gave us a view of the beautiful snow.”
“Absolutely GORGEOUS venue for our wedding, several ceremony sites to choose from and it’s hard to choose because they’re all so beautiful.”
“And we had access to all the cabins to check them out, the attention to detail in each room and cabin was just out of this world, not one cabin was the same, which I loved.”
“Young and old had such fun on the spacious dance floor, the food was unending down to roasting marshmallows on the outdoor fire pit.”
“The barn is gorgeous and so fun to decorate, the pavilion is classy and the perfect place for a ceremony as well or cocktail hour.”
“Perhaps the story that best captures the kind of people Kerri and her team are: at one point we thought one of our dogs had gotten loose.”
What couples say again and again

“The owner of the venue, who was also our wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to help us arrange everything we needed to make it wedding perfect.”

From the reviews
Everything about Owls Hoot, Kerri, and Molly is truly incredible. This was the one and only venue that my husband and I looked at because of how blown away we were. From booking to planning to execution (all in the midst of the pandemic) everything was seamless.

What a night! Nashville Night at Owls Hoot Barn is one of the BEST local music events I’ve been to. The space is gorgeous—the barn is absolutely stunning, the grounds are beautiful, and the whole place has such a warm, welcoming vibe. It’s easy to see why it’s such a popular spot for weddings and private events too.
We loved Owls Hoot so much last year, that when our son got engaged this spring, we encouraged him and his fiancée to have their wedding and reception there - and they did! The ceremony took place at a location on the property that felt like a secret garden, tucked away from everything.
Getting married at Owls Hoot Barn
Owls Hoot Barn comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
