Iris Woods and their entire team made the wedding planning season peaceful, easy, and enjoyable! They were patient with me and covered every detail we wanted beautifully! There entire team is so sweet helpful, extremely kind, great at what they do and truly wonderful people! They are experienced and professional. The planning and coordinating the day of the wedding was seamless! Wonderful place, beautiful atmosphere, delicious food, organized and attentive team! Brandi, Josh, Paula, and Ellen care deeply about making the event and everything about it go smoothly and beautifully! We chose the all inclusive package which blessed us tremendously! The food, the florist, the DJ, and everything they provide is amazing and they are all extremely talented at what they do! Very happy we chose the all inclusive package! If I had to do it all over again I would 100% choose Iris Woods!
Getting married at Iriswoods was such a blessing for my husband and I. Our original venue cancelled on us and Iriswoods was the first place we called. We had our wedding rescheduled in 15 minutes. Looking back now I am SO grateful our original plan fell through. I had seen Iriswoods before their recent renovations, and wasn’t a huge fan. Let me tell you, Josh and Brandi have really revamped the space. It was absolutely perfect for our 170 guests. There are plenty of beautiful areas inside and outside for pictures. Even better than the space itself is working with Josh and Brandi. Working with them is like working with family. We used lots of their decor and set up that they had on hand. I would recommend getting married at Iriswoods to anyone because of the amazing space and the staff that work there!
We held my Mom's surprise 70th birthday party here and it was truly a perfect venue! We could not have been happier with Brandi and the Iriswoods staff as they were so helpful throughout the process of booking and ensuring everything was ready for the big surprise. The charm and incredible staff of Iriswoods makes it easy to highly recommend this venue for any special event! Thank you all so much for helping us make such a rememberable night.
Any questions?
I have nothing but good things to say about Iriswoods. Brandi and her team were so helpful and accommodating through out the entire planning process as well as the day of the event. The food and cake were delicious! The venue is absolutely gorgeous - we got so many beautiful photographs! The whole event was better than I could have imagined! I had so many guests raving about the venue.
Having our wedding at Iriswoods was an actual dream! From start to finish they made the entire experience so easy and stress free. They recently did a ton of new updates and renovations to the already gorgeous space. It was PERFECT! I would get married here again in a heartbeat!
I love Iris Woods!!!! My husband and I just recently got married here, and we loved every second of the entire process! Every single one of the people on staff here is unbelievably helpful, flexible, kind, supportive, and organized. You won’t have to worry about a single thing come the big day! Highly recommend these lovely people for your special day!!
Incredible venue! Amazing staff! My daughter’s dream wedding came true! She was so happy. Brandi and her team made the day go so smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for more.
5 days before my wedding, my venue started construction! It was a wedding nightmare—my sister called every venue in the state (pretty much), and IrisWoods lovingly took us in! From the first minute I was on the property, the atmosphere was calming. I’m forever grateful for Brandi, Ellen, and IrisWoods taking us in when we were venue orphaned.
The first and only venue we toured, Iriswoods, was the perfect location for our special day. Brandi is an expert coordinator and leader. Any stress on our wedding day was mitigated thanks to her. The additions that Brandi and her team have added since last year are amazing! I highly recommend that you go see it now. Everything from the gorgeous ceremony area to the large reception space was simply perfect. We cannot recommend Iriswoods enough for your wedding. Thank you Brandi!
Our wedding day at Iriswoods was pure magic! The team was super supportive, making sure everything flowed seamlessly. The compliments about the venue's beauty kept pouring in – seriously, it was breathtaking!
The quiet, nestled-in-nature vibe was exactly what we wanted. And talk about photo ops – every spot was pure beauty! Plus, the 1800s house added that rustic vintage charm we fell in love with. Highly recommend for a dreamy wedding day!
Me and my husband got married here two weeks ago and I could not of asked for a better wedding day! Everything was perfect! Babs and her team do and excellent job of keeping everything very organized! I will recommend this place to everyone!
Absolutely the best venue around. My daughters wedding was beautiful and the whole day from start to finish was perfect thanks to Iriswoods and and the entire staff!!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND 5 plus stars!

Thank you Tammy for your kind words! I am so glad everyone had a wonderful time.
I cannot recommend Iriswoods enough. Babs and her team are the bomb! The whole planning process was organized and efficient. We had a timeline of all the expected events, so we knew what our day entailed/what time. Babs was timely to respond if there were changes to be made and was happy to accommodate, even if it's not what we originally discussed during our planning meeting. The communication was clear throughout the whole planning process. We ended up having to do our ceremony inside and thank goodness this was an option for us because it was COLD the day we got married. Iriswoods thinks of everything and has a plan for whatever may happen.
Our wedding day was everything that we discussed, perfectly executed! The food was delicious, the music was fantastic, cake was yummy, decorations were beautiful. I could go on and on about how wonderful everything was. We truly cannot thank the Iriswoods team enough for all the hard work that they put in to give us such a perfect wedding day.
Babs is the absolute best! From the minute we looked at this venue to us pulling away the night of the wedding, the Iriswoods team was kind, helpful, and on the top of their game. The venue is all inclusive, so not having to worry about coordinating caters, decorations, and flowers was so great. Babs and the team created beautiful center pieces, decor tables, and the flowers were amazing. They have great attention to detail, and can create your perfect wedding. All of the venders Babs use are amazing too! The food was incredible and the cake was perfect! I can't recommend Iriswoods enough!

Deanna, thank you so much for your review! I am thrilled that you had a wonderful day! We appreciate your feedback so much!
This venue is any brides absolute dream! From its true beauty to the ease of planning with it being mainly all inclusive and having the wonderful wedding planner Babs! Babs made sure everything went off without a hitch and made sure our day was just as special as I always dreamed it would be! I highly suggest booking Iriswoods as your wedding venue you won’t regret it!

Kendra, thank you for this sweet review! We strive to make your day an absolute dream! I appreciate your kind words.
Our wedding at Iriswoods was so lovely! Babs took the time to personalize our day just the way we wanted and made it beyond beatiful. She works with such wonderful vendors who made our day wonderful (Wildberry Catering, Cakes by Brian, Wade the DJ) and took so much stress off of me in the planning process.
Response from the Vendor on 09/21/2022
Thank you Amanda for your kind words.
Iriswoods is magical! Babs created the most beautiful wedding for Chris and my daughter, Jess, on a warm July evening. She and her team are absolutely awesome. From the initial planning meeting to last minute questions and needs on the wedding day, she took care of every detail with ease and charm. Her staff was attentive and helpful throughout the festivities. Our guests raved about the food and cake (so beautiful), and had a great time on the dance floor. Thank you for giving us all a celebration to remember!
Response from the Vendor on 11/17/2022
Bonnie, I am so happy for Jess and Chris. I am glad everything was just what they wanted. Thank you for your review!
We got married at Iriswoods on 12/3/21 and everything was AMAZING thanks to Babs and her staff! We planned for a winter wedding and expected 45 degree weather, but ended up with a beautiful 75 degree day! I loved the idea that Iriswoods was an all inclusive venue and Babs did a lot of the behind the scenes work for us down to some very specific details that I hadn't even considered when I started wedding planning myself. Babs' planning meetings were great to figure out many of the details from the day of timeline to the menu, to the table decorations at each table. We ended up moving out of TN only 4 months before our wedding, and I was so grateful we had chosen Babs and Iriswoods, because even though we (and all of our guests) traveled to TN for the big day, I knew she had everything taken care of!
We were the third family wedding of Fall 2021, and most of my guests loved how unique Iriswoods was from the other weddings they had been too (they specifically appreciated that the ceremony and reception was all in one place, and after some bad dining service at another wedding, my family made a point to compliment how EXCELLENT, friendly and efficient the staff were regarding food and drinks). DJ Wade did an AMAZING job both during our ceremony and at the reception. The food from Wildeberry catering was phenomenal (we served a brunch!) and our cake was beautiful and delicious! The photo booth we added as an upgrade was loved by all our guests, they even included our names on the printouts with our wedding colors, which was a nice touch (we just were so busy we forgot to get in our own photo booth together!). Babs did a fantastic job presenting our wedding favors (blankets, to have and to hold in case you get cold!), she made me the most BEAUTIFUL bouquet (that I didn't even think I wanted originally, but she included my favorite lilies and Irises (our theme!)) and made sure everything ran smoothly. Babs also had a great list of other vendors to contact including photographers, officiants, hair and make-up and local hotels that would give an Iriswoods discount.
Lastly, considering it's 2.5 months post wedding and I still don't have any pictures after I asked for an unplugged ceremony, I am FOREVER grateful to Babs and her staff for the pictures they did take on my special day as those are all we have so far!
If I could do it all again, I would choose Babs and Iriswoods again, hands down! The only change I'd make is to do a longer package/get married later in the day so I'd have enough time to get ready, and plenty of time to enjoy all the things I wanted at my reception (since I was the one who was not ready on time, and we were dead set on a noon wedding). Thank you Babs and the Iriswoods team for all your hard work!
We were married 11/13/21 and our day truly went off without a hitch thanks to the Iriswoods team. Babs and her team work with vendors to double & triple check everything so there’s no question once every begins.
We had the best time through the planning process which led to the most perfect day. 🤍

Megan, I am so happy you had a perfect day. I really appreciate your kinds words. We couldn't do it without a great team and vendors. We wish you much happiness.
Babs
I can not recommend this venue enough! Babs and her team are absolutely amazing, and went above and beyond for every aspect of our wedding. From the initial planning stages to the wedding day, Babs does it all. Any ideas that I mentioned during our planning meeting, they made sure to make it happen. The florals and decor were more beautiful than I had imagined, the food was amazing, and everyone had a wonderful time. It rained until 10 minutes before our ceremony, but their team was outside with towels making sure everyone had a dry seat. They pay attention to each small detail and care so much, that it makes the biggest difference.
Response from the Vendor on 09/15/2021
Thank you Cameron for your sweet review. You and Dalton were a pleasure to work with. I am so happy you had your dream wedding and allowing us to be a part of your special day!
I cannot say enough about this venue, Babs, and her team! We were married at Iriswoods on 06/27/2021. We were on a short timeline with limited date availability so my step-son could be in attendance while home on leave from the Army. In less than 90-days, Babs was able to make it happen and it was beyond PERFECT!! Everything came together flawlessly and Babs and her staff made every detail come to life. The food, the cake, the DJ...EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!
Everyone has commented on how beautiful and moving the ceremony was and how beautiful the venue was. It was the happiest day of my life and I am forever grateful to Iriswoods and Babs for making it perfect for us with as little stress as possible. We love you!!!

We are so happy that your day was perfect! You were both a pleasure to work with! We wish the very best!
I have never written a review for anything, and this is long overdue to be honest. But we literally could not have asked for a better experience with a venue. My now husband and I talk about how amazing our wedding was very regularly all thanks to the Iriswoods team. Our friends and family still talk about how much fun they had, how beautiful the venue was (even on a humid, rainy August day), and how delicious the food was 9 months later. In the midst of COVID and several last minute changes with the bridal party that I was dreading having to ask for, Babs never made me feel like an inconvenience (when even I was annoyed with myself). No words could ever express how much we appreciate all the hard work and thought they put into our wedding from the very beginning to days after when I recovered my bouquet that Babs had saved in her floral cooler😭 I could go on and on about our incredible experience.
If you are on the fence about choosing Iriswoods, JUST BOOK IT. You seriously will not regret it.
Iriswoods went above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined. THANK YOU x A MILLION 💕💜

Sacha, this was the sweetest review, Thank you! I am so happy that we were able to design your dream wedding!
We were married at Iriswoods June 12th. It was beyond perfect. Everything was beautiful and even better than we ever could have imagined! We highly recommend this venue!
Response from the Vendor on 06/20/2020
Thank you Taylor! I am so happy it was better than you imagined!
Iriswoods put on the perfect wedding. They handled EVERYTHING. I had nothing to worry about on my wedding day because Babs and her kind and competent staff took care of all of it. Her preselected vendors did a fantastic job with catering and keeping the party going while her eye for decor made the whole venue like a fairy tale. She listened to everything I wanted and then built off my wish list to make things even better than what I imagined. 10/10. Worth every penny. Thank you Iriswoods for a flawless experience!
We absolutely loved Iriswoods!
Our wedding was September 27, 2019, and I couldn’t have imagined a better day or venue.
Babs was absolutely amazing, and so organized and helpful. I’m a teacher so it worked out well that I was able to tell her what I wanted (or didn’t want) and she made it happen.
The house and the grounds were so stunning! And our guests couldn’t stop telling us how much they loved this venue, too.
100% recommend this venue to anyone wanting a beautiful outside wedding with the most helpful owner and coordinator :)
Response from the Vendor on 10/15/2019
Dear Sarah, I am just thrilled that your wedding day was everything you wanted it to be! It was so much fun planning your wedding. I thought it was beautiful. Thank you for this sweet review.
We had our wedding here September 7, 2019. It was everything we could ask for and more! They wouldn't let us do anything the day of but relax! Babs and her team handled everything for us! She is amazing to work with, answered all of our many questions, and gave us all the suggestions we could need. If you are looking for a venue and want to avoid the wedding stresses, this is the venue for you! You wont be disappointed! Thank you Babs and team for making our day so special!!
I would highly recommend Iriswoods for their wedding!! Michael and I were married on May 25, and everything went perfectly! I was so overwhelmed with the beauty. It was even better than I imagined it would be.
Babs and her staff were wonderful. They took such great care of us!! All of our guests raved about the decor, the food, everything.
If you are considering Iriswoods for your special day, I promise you will not be disappointed!!!
I love this venue! I had my wedding here last week and everything went perfectly! I was freaking out because it's was raining but Babs had the perfect rain plan. It was amazing! She basically took my Pinterest boards and brought it to life! I highly recommend this venue! You will NOT be disappointed!!!

Kristen, Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure working with you and Richard. We wish you much happiness!
I had my wedding at Iriswoods and it was absolutely amazing! Babs and her team went above and beyond to make our day everything we wanted and more! From day one she was so helpful and considerate. We were able to add and make adjustments to our package so that it fit our vision perfectly. I honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience and day! Iriswoods created the wedding of my dreams and I am so thankful for everything they did for us! You can’t go wrong with this venue!
We couldn't have had a more organized and seamless day without the Iriswoods team! Babs and her team are absolutely amazing and we are so lucky that we got to get married in such a beautiful and perfect location! From planning, to the day of and after Babs has been a quick email away, always responding super fast with knowledgeable advice. We couldn't have found a better team and place to have our wedding, we HIGHLY recommend Iriswoods!

Hi Shannon,
Thank you so much for your kind words. It was our pleasure working with all of you!
Babs and her family made our day absolutely perfect. She was so easy to work with, and she was available to us, even in the midst of a busy wedding season! Her pricing is very affordable, especially for an all inclusive venue, and the vendors she works with are top-notch. We cannot thank them all enough for making our day absolutely perfect. Our guests can't stop raving about the amazing time they had!
Response from the Vendor on 10/17/2018
Hi Alyssa,
We were so happy to be a part of your special day! I am so glad everyone had a wonderful time! You were a dream to work with! Thank you!
I first went out to this venue and after 5 minutes I knew this was the perfect place for the southern outdoor wedding I had always dreamed of having as a little girl. Babs treats you as if you were family and goes the extra mile every step of the way to ensure that your vision becomes a reality. If you are looking for a beautiful venue year-round with a stress free wedding day Babs and her team are the best in the business to ensure your dream wedding is executed flawlessly. I cannot say enough great things about Iriswoods!!
I can't say this enough or stress it enough - if you need an absolutely perfect venue for your wedding ceremony, reception or both then do yourselves and your guests a favor and book with Iriswoods! The venue is breathtakingly beautiful! And the owners are even more perfect! Babs, Dale and Carly are so amazing at making you and your entire wedding party feel comfortable and making your special day something you don't ever want to end.
From the moment I met Babs, I just knew we would be fast friends. She helped me every step of the way and answered every text, email or phone call I had during the process. That's a huge deal when planning a wedding. The different wedding packages are such a great idea! Another quick tip - choose the full wedding package and let them help you with everything! You will not regret it!
My wedding day was absolutely beautiful, but I wasn't sure how it would all come together because it was SNOWING! But I should have known Babs would have it taken care of before I even arrived to the venue. She made it more than I could have ever imagine!! Thank you to Babs, Dale and Carly for making it the most incredible day of my life ❤️
I honestly dont even know where to start!!! I got married at Iriswoods on Monday October 10th and I am still on cloud 9 about how easy and wonderful the day was. Since the day we toured Iriswoods the owner babs made us feel at home, i am the kind of person who didn't really know what I wanted out of a wedding, all I cared about was marrying Dave and giving my guests a good experience....babs literally made the entire process effortless throughout the whole process, from planning, to picking vendors, to decorations. She knew the small vision I had and executed it beautifully I felt as if I never worried once...and then the day of went even better than I ever imagined, she helped me decorate and also gave me so many great ideas and helped me and my bridesmaids the whole day so I didn't have to worry about a thing!!! Her and her daughters and her husband made the day better than I could have ever hoped and dreamed it would be. I can't say enough good things about Iriswoods and I feel as if any bride in the Nashville area needs to at least check this place out! And you can tell by all the great reviews she has that she treats every bride the same and executes all her weddings with the sheer passion and talent that she has for her business. Almost every single guest told me it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to, and were absolutely blown away by the property! I am still hearing guests tell me this! It was just absolutely PERFECT. Thank you Iriswoods!
