It’s been a year since we got married at The Pick Inn and never once do we reflect and regret anything! Amanda and her awesome staff did an amazing job. They placed everything so perfectly from the chairs and pergola arrangements and all the odds and ends I brought. They made the day run smoothly, I actually noticed zero wedding day hiccups. So kuddos to the team if there were any. We could not have had the wedding we did without Amanda, their vendor recommendations, and the beautiful venue itself! People still talk to me about how beautiful the venue was a year later. It is truly so dreamy and peaceful. Amanda was always available for questions that we had, which was super helpful as an anxious bride to be! My husband and I are so thankful that we found The Pick Inn and if we were able, we would do it all again (but only at The Pick Inn). :)

Scarritt-Bennett Center - Wightman Chapel 

5.0

Nashville, TN
  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

We offer three unique wedding venues on campus, and our on-site catering services make event planning easy with customized gourmet menus and delicious artisan-quality offerings. Whatever form your dream wedding takes, whether you envision a classic, historic, or rustic feel, the venues at Scarritt Bennett Center will bring your dream wedding to life.

We held our wedding ceremony at the historic and timeless Wightman Chapel in the Scarritt Bennett Center. The venue provided a gorgeous, intimate setting for our special day. The staff, especially our coordinator Deborah, were friendly and efficient, ensuring everything flowed smoothly so my husband and I could relax and focus on each other. Deborah's communication was timely, though Lizzie’s communication was occasionally delayed due to her busy schedule coordinating multiple events. Our rental period felt a bit rushed at the end, but having exclusive use of the chapel for the 2.5 hours that we did was ideal. I wholeheartedly recommend the Scarritt Bennett Center to couples seeking an elegant venue with old-world charm and kind, professional staff.
