Marblegate thinks of everything! They have an amazing property with multiple options to make your special day the best it can be. The staff is ready to do anything you need, from p...
utting out your decor and cleaning up to getting you a drink during pictures, or even finding a hairdryer so girls can get their hair done. We definitely recommend this venue for any of your event needs!
From the moment we toured Marblegate I knew no where else would even come close to comparing. The grounds, bridal suites, grooms suite, reception space, and venue as a whole are tr...
uly stunning. The staff are absolutely incredible. They are upfront with you regarding pricing, rules, and guidelines. They made sure absolutely everything was seamless on our wedding day. After our wedding all of our guests talked about how stunning the venue was.
Probably I would rate the venue at a 4.8 if that was an option, lol. The venue was beyond beautiful and the staff are very helpful, prompt, professional and kind. The only issue I ...
had was that they are pretty strict- for example, we had paper airplanes to throw after the ceremony and they didn’t want all of our guests to have one- just a select number of airplanes could be used. They were worried about them getting lost but they just seemed kind of silly.
Marblegate made our dream wedding come to life!! The staff was incredibly friendly and extremely accommodating to anything we needed! The venue is gorgeous and will blow you away f...
rom the minute you drive onto property! I would recommend Marblegate to anyone getting married!
Not only is Marblegate absolutely beautiful, Cheryl, Court and Marie are amazing to work with. They made our wedding planning and wedding day so fun and stress-free. With rain in t...
he forecast, they helped calm my nerves with multiple backup plans. I highly recommend Marblegate for anyone looking for a venue.
10/10. staff was amazing. owners are so sweet and it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL inside and out. it was like a dream.
Once you’ve toured Marblegate Farm you simply can’t imagine getting married anywhere else. Even in the wintertime this place is absolutely gorgeous. I (the Bride) was sold on the f...
act that you can use the entire grounds on your wedding day, meaning there is plenty of room to have all of your closest family around you as you get ready, from the spacious 2-story farmhouse for the girls to the boathouse for the boys. It was also one of the only venues I found that could accommodate an indoor ceremony and reception for 150+ people while still creating totally separate spaces, meaning you don’t have to worry about the weather or look at your reception tables during the ceremony. A permanent outdoor tent (recent addition) and outdoor fireplace make for a cozy “cocktail” hour no matter the season. Marblegate’s staff was professional and fast, flipping the ceremony space to a reception in record time. I also can’t say enough about Cheryl, the venue coordinator, who was a pleasure from the tour to the wedding day. It is so fun to listen to her talk about the history of the venue, and she is invaluable when it comes to recommending vendors, keeping a detailed plan/calendar, and keeping everyone calm and collected. She definitely has it down to a science. Marblegate will forever hold a special place in our hearts!
Thank you so much for making our wedding day amazing; everything was perfect.
Every part of Marblegate is so beautiful, it was a breathtaking experience and so much fun!
Cheryl was...
great through the whole experience; from our first conversation about touring Marblegate to having a margarita ready for me as I walked back down the aisle after getting married!
Because of the pandemic they put extra care into making sure our guests felt safe at the wedding and we were able to keep our original September 2020 wedding date. Our family & friends specifically mentioned how Marblegate was “top-notch” and they felt comfortable there.
Thank you again, we are so happy we had our wedding at Marblegate!

I fell in love with Marblegate Farm the moment I drove onto the property and choosing Marblegate as our venue was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding. Cher...
yl is a true pro and while the venue itself is fairly new, it felt like they had been hosting weddings in the space for decades. On top of being a beautiful piece of land with water views, the hall, patio, house and apartment were perfect locations for getting ready, the ceremony, reception photos and more. Cheryl and her team worked with all our other vendors to ensure that the plan we put in place was executed flawlessly… even though it poured the entire week leading up to and the morning of the wedding. We can’t begin to thank everyone at Marblegate Farm for welcoming us onto the property like we were a part of the family and for making our day perfect.
We booked Marblegate in January for our November wedding before they had hosted any official weddings. From January through the wedding day, Cheryl Stokey and her family and staff ...
kept every one of their promises, and went out of their way to make sure each and every detail was handled professionally and on time. Marblegate is the most beautiful wedding setting we had seen, but we were a bit concerned about the fact this was their first year. The wedding went off without a single glitch, thanks to Cheryl's excellent planning and attention to details! Cheryl responded quickly to our never ending e-mails and calls and we always felt like we were her only wedding event. We continue to hear from our guests that this was the most beautiful venue and outdoor wedding they had ever been to. And, we had many compliments on how well staffed Marblegate was in taking care of our guests from the moment they arrived to the moment they left. We can't imagine a better outcome to such an important day for our daughter. Thank you Cheryl, your family, and your staff for helping to make this day one to remember for a lifetime. You guys rock!
My husband and I could not have been more pleased with our experience at Marblegate. We looked at lots of well known venues in the Knoxville area and nothing even came close to Mar...
blegate’s beauty. The coordinator, Cheryl, and her staff went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. When rain threatened our outdoor ceremony they moved the ceremony from outdoors to indoors, and then back outdoors again. They wiped off seats, escorted bridesmaids to the hall with umbrellas, and laid towels across slippery places on the porch as they walked over. They even had security on the lake to ask the boats to turn off their music during our ceremony (which was perfect). We had guests coming up to us all night saying they had never seen such a beautiful place. Marblegate is the most picturesque place I have ever seen. It provides a lake front property, beautiful reception hall, and great places to get ready overlooking pastures with horses. If you are looking for a magical wedding venue for your perfect day, this is the place.
