Cascata Springs

tely exceeded every expectation. The grounds are stunning, the flow of the venue is seamless, and every detail felt intentionally designed to create the perfect wedding atmosphere. A huge part of why our day was so incredible was our wedding planner, Kristina. Her leadership, organization, and calm professionalism were nothing short of phenomenal. She anticipated things before we even thought of them, kept every detail on track, and brought our vision to life with such care and precision. Our wedding wouldn’t have been nearly as beautiful, stress-free, or memorable without her exceptional talent and venue management skills. Kristina and the entire Cascata Springs team made us feel supported from start to finish. We could actually relax and enjoy our day knowing everything was in the best hands possible. If you’re looking for a venue that combines beauty, professionalism, and absolutely top-tier coordination—Cascata Springs is unmatched. We’re so grateful we chose it for the most important day of our lives. Highly, highly recommend!

rom the Cascata Springs staff. Let Cascata host your big day — they won’t disappoint!

whole planning process was amazing. We truly could not have chosen a better venue. The food, the staff, the decor, all of it was perfect! Thank you Cascata Springs!

ed the little details that made a huge difference. Our guests are still talking about how stunning the venue was and how smoothly everything flowed. The venue was beautiful and the all inclusive decor, food and drink options made this venue the perfect choice when planning an out of state wedding!

n-house vendors that they gave and we used were amazing! (florists, dj, and catering) 

fect! 

the vision for our wedding to life. I truly couldn't have had a better experience. They were just wonderful to work with and personalized our experience so well. They were also very professional and attentive on our wedding day <3

We can’t wait to take milestone pictures in the future. 🤍

We did the all inclusive package and I recommend it to all, being able to have our wedding party stay on site for the weekend was an added bonus and our friends still talk about it! Mallory was our wedding planner and I could not have done it without her, her attention to detail, calm&happy demeanor made the planner process and wedding weekend a breeze. I did not feel stressed once knowing Mallory was there to handle. I work at a different wedding venue and still chose to have my wedding here! 

at is, they took care of the food, flowers, decor - literally everything! They even offered breakfast meals while getting ready, snacks throughout the day and late night snacks for when people were still dancing and maybe got a little hungry again. The owner, Sarah, was so nice and so easy to work with. The coordinator, Mallory, was the best! She took care of literally everything and made sure it was all perfect and exactly how I imagined it. Really the best experience. You will not be disappointed booking with them!

! My coordinator AND floral designer was Kristina. She understood my (very specific and elaborate) vision, and took care to make sure I felt heard and assured. I was needy and she made me feel confident that everything was going to work out- IT DID!!! We got so many compliments on how delicious the food was, how sweet and helpful the staff was, and just how incredible the venue is. EVERYONE was impressed!!! We booked the whole weekend and it was all the togetherness I was hoping for. We had so much fun! This was 100% money well spent on our dream wedding. They have everything you might want / need for a wedding in Nashville proper without the inflated price tag. Additionally, CS is not a barn (it definitely could be if you want) and is really malleable to your personal style. 10/10 recommend! Thank you Cascata Springs for hosting our unforgettable wedding!

five stars, but poor management and unprofessional staff significantly detract from the experience. Staff & Coordination Issues: • Staff began cleanup well before the 11 p.m. closeout while guests were still enjoying themselves. • Children of staff repeatedly entered the groom’s suite without permission—one nearly walked in on my husband while he was changing. • Staff helped themselves to our food and drinks without asking. • The coordinator, Kassi, never checked on the bride and was generally inattentive and forgetful, even after multiple reminders about sensitive details like reserved seats for deceased family members. • We were told champagne bottles couldn't be placed at tables for liability reasons—yet other guests openly had beer and liquor they brought from home at theirs. Worse, the champagne flutes we provided weren’t even unpacked, which was neglectful and disrespectful considering the Bride and Groom hauled everything they wanted used all the way from their state of Georgia with a trailer. Also a huge waste of our money. • Staff dressed poorly on the wedding day—it should not have been difficult to look more presentable than leggings and a raggedy T-shirt. Bartending Issues: • The bartender (a staff member’s child) opened multiple identical liquor bottles unnecessarily, costing us hundreds of dollars on non-returnable alcohol. • Ingredients like mint and limes were ignored—another huge waste of money on freshly provided herbs. The White Claws listed on the bar menu were never even served because the bartender was too disorganized and inattentive to find where the cases were placed. We believe the bartender didn’t even bother to read the bar menu that we spent a lot of time and money to assemble and nicely frame. • The bartender was taking shots with guests—unprofessional and illegal. Other Concerns: • The "all-inclusive" food was terrible—we opted for a third-party caterer, costing us more than we anticipated, but it was worth it for our guests to not have to eat the awful venue-provided food. • The cutely advertised “pizza oven” was not used for our tasting. The pizza was cooked in the kitchen oven and tasted like it was microwaved from frozen—not good. Thus, we unfortunately opted to order from Domino’s as our late-night snack instead, another well-spent, but unexpected cost. • The lawn was overgrown and poorly maintained, making it difficult to take photos after the ceremony. The “tree” ceremony spot is unusable because the grass is full of mole holes and it’s easy to fall. • After rain, the path to the greenhouse turned to deep mud. While the staff put turf inside the greenhouse, they made no effort to extend it outside to the path which all our guests and the entire bridal party had to traverse through. This was not only messy and embarrassing, but dangerous for guests to slip and fall. The Bride also had to spend $200 cleaning her white dress because of it. Despite all this, the venue’s florist and photographer were incredible. April from AGO was outstanding, and we received endless compliments on the floral arrangements. Looking back, we should have just went with a non-all-inclusive venue, due to all the unforeseen costs of having to pick up the slack of a poorly-executed “all-inclusive” venue. Cascata Springs could be a wonderful place for a wedding—but only with a major overhaul in professionalism and management.

make it the greatest day! A huge shoutout to the venue owner for giving us a personal tour before and the wedding planner there for truly going above and beyond for us. We used all of their vendors and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. If you are looking to get married here, we highly suggest it!

d providing delicious food for our guests! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our wedding! Our guests couldn’t stop saying how much they loved the venue, how beautiful it was and how friendly the staff was! Thank you again for making our day unforgettable!

Love everyone out at Cascata Springs!!!

venue is not short of just breath taken …. P.s. my daughter is having her weeding there as well

anning experience for us as the bride and groom. We had the pleasure of having Mallory as our Coordinator and her assistant Kaylin. Mallory was an absolute joy getting to work with. She was readily available, prompt with all communication, and the perfect picture of calm making our day special. She definitely went above and beyond in providing vendor recommendations, scheduling the time line, decorations, and navigating family members on our wedding day. Not to mention making sure myself and husband had a plate and drinks while running around like crazy. As a bride, it was so nice being able to trust and turn everything over to her on our wedding day, so I could relax and enjoy all the magic of the day! Kaylin, being Mallorys side kick was not far behind her making sure I had all that was needed to make this day the best day ever. Hayden and Kim, also had big roles in our big day with helping setup/break down and making sure all of our guest needs were met and that all was having a great time. Our bartender was Tricia who makes the best blackberry margaritas (my favorite) that went perfect with our taco bar prepared by Steven. We could not be more grateful for how our day turned out, definitely the most beautiful and perfect day starting out this new chapter in our lives. I would definitely recommend Cascata Springs to any couple looking to have the best experience of planning, preparing, and having the most amazing wedding!

eryone from Cascata made that happen for me and my husband! There were a few hiccups, but they were able to handle them and make them minor! I wish I could do it all again!

his place so special. They are so willing to make sure your day is stress free, and just the way you had visioned. I cannot recommend this place enough. Especially if you are wanting out of the busy traffic of those urban areas. It is an amazing place with even better personnel. If you’re one who has a vision and everything in your head, allow Cascata Springs to make your dreams come true! You will not be dissatisfied.

ator was very much on top of all of the planning and ensuring that our day was perfect! I did not have to worry about finding catering, cake, flowers, decorations, Dj, photographer etc. because they handled ALL OF IT! I sat down with my coordinator and basically showed her my dream Pinterest board and they made it happen. I was so confident in the planning process that we decided to forgo a rehearsal dinner, though I’m sure if we had, it would have turned out perfectly too! I also really liked that we were able to stay at the venue the night of the wedding in the bridal suite (which is perfect for all the girls to get ready in…I can only hope to have a bathroom like that) they have upstairs! It was convenient to not have to worry about getting home after a night of fun!

spect that would allow us to have a much easier planning process that having to individually find vendors ourselves. From the beginning we received clear communication from our coordinator Mallory. She would ask for my "vision" of the day and from there would do all of the coordination to ensure that the floral, cake, decor, etc. would be perfect. She would even set up "mock" decor and send me pictures to ensure it was what I wanted. Her response time was great if I had any questions. The vendors chosen for us were phenomenal and met every vision we had. The catering, which is the only caterer available for weddings, had a very large menu to pick from. The food was AMAZING and my only regret was not getting to have an appetizer we picked because they were gone by the time we were done with sunset photos. The space to get ready for the bridal party is perfect and had plenty of space for my 5 bridesmaids, my mom, and me. I do believe they could use clearer instructions/ markings on where to park. The venue can be difficult to find. On the day of the wedding my bridal party did get stressed as they locked the door after the ceremony started and they had to ensure all of our stuff was not locked inside. On the day of the wedding, I had clear communication from Mallory and she was ready to help me with whatever was needed. Probably one of my biggest suggestions would be to not have guests carry their own chairs from the ceremony site to the reception area. I would have gladly paid more money than to have my grandparents, etc. carry their own chairs. I do believe there was a large miscommunication between the vendor and our DJ as to when the reception was over. The DJ did a last call 30 minutes before it was needed and it took my husband giving him $100 to continue rather than the DJ checking with the vendor on when exactly they were supposed to be done. The DJ was very apologetic but it was a miscommunication that should have never happened as it was really confusing to me and the guests. While my husband and me were getting our sunset pictures done, it seemed our guests were getting bored waiting on us. I believe the overall layout of the events could have been slightly altered to ensure there wasn't much "downtime" for the guests to be waiting. It was after dinner that we did the speeches and firsts dances, and I wish we had done them prior or during dinner to ensure that they would be done before our grandparents or older guests wanted to leave. Overall, the wedding was amazing and other than small details that could easily be fixed, the wedding was perfect to us from the decor, food, and venue. I would gladly recommend Mallory and Cascata Springs to any bride and groom looking for a small town venue with a "Nashville" feel without the Nashville pricing.

planning process, but loved the venue itself on the wedding day. Our experience at Cascata Springs was a mixed bag, which ended in very poor customer service. Our initial tour, the owner Sarah had a family crisis and she had another employee, Alli give us a tour. We had already communicated that if we booked, we would like do a Sunday wedding. During the tour, Alli showed us the gorgeous bridal suite and said that the bride gets ready in the morning (there are even 3 hair/makeup stations) and as part of the package the couple gets to stay the night (which we were so pleasantly surprised). We decided to book the venue and were so excited. Throughout the wedding planning process, we attended three meetings at the venue. The first meeting we had with Alli she had her laptop out and asked us specific questions, making notes, including if we were planning to stay the night there, which we said of course (I remember being shocked that anyone wouldn’t want to!) The following meetings, she did not reference her notes, would often confuse details, and we also received multiple incorrect invoices. During our second meeting we were told we could only come to the venue at 12pm on the wedding day (for a 3:30 wedding), because it was a Sunday and that we would need to get ready at a salon or hotel nearby. We made it clear that was not correct and they allowed us to get ready at the venue as promised. As the wedding planning proceeded the responsibilities shifted towards the owner, who was also inconsistent with communication. She forgot to send a final invoice before final payment was due and I had to ask for it multiple times. None of the above were deal breakers, but pointed towards what happened the night of the wedding, when we were refused to stay the night as promised. At the end of the night, we asked about plans for the morning and the owner denied that was an option, and Alli denied ever telling us that we could and denied even giving us a tour. They continued to blame shift, and claimed that we fabricated a story that we could stay the night. There was no apology by the owner, but an offer was made by an older gentleman who did not introduce himself that we could stay if we left at 7am, because they had a tour. So rather than reschedule the tour or limit access to the bridal suite (which is clearly a big selling point), they continued to inconvenience their current customer. We opted to leave with a family member who had already come to get us (it was now around 11pm). The wedding itself was very beautiful. Sarah has a clear creative talent for making beautiful spaces and events. She is detail-oriented when is comes to the aesthetics and goes above and beyond in that department. The communication and professionalism from her and others was lackluster at best and created a lot of stress throughout the process. We sincerely wish her success in the future and hope this can be a learning experience going forward.
