The Monarch is the most beautiful venue that offers a blank slate to customize to any brides dreams. They are extremely easy to work with and want to make your day the most special...
! They also offer a vendor list that was helpful in finding the perfect fit for us, but you aren’t required to use from this list!!
The coordinators stayed in contact throughout our planning process and helped the day run super smooth! The only flaw was I had originally booked for a date in 2023, and had to res...
chedule due to an unforeseen circumstance- I was charged an additional fee due to prices increasing in 2023, instead of being "grandfathered in". Other than that, I highly recommend The Monarch!
The Monarch and their team were amazing. They were very responsive and helped in anyway they could. This experience felt more than just a vendor they became our friends and tried t...
o find every way to make our wedding day as special as possible. I highly recommend this beautiful venue and team to anyone looking to get married!
I cannot say enough amazing things about The Monarch. Being in middle TN, it was hard to explain to everyone why we were going so far outside of town for our wedding and I just kep...
t saying "you'll understand when you see the venue", and everyone immediately did the moment they walked in. The attention to detail Kellie has put into the space is unmatched. The connection and availability to MaryBeth was also amazing. She gave our tour October 2022 for our November 2023 wedding and was our day-of coordinator and we picked right back up despite the time passed (and both having gone through major life events in that year!!!). She was on top of things I didn't even realize I needed to be on top of. When I word-vomited the vibes I was going for with decor, she immediately went to work and i cannot stop thinking about the beauty she created. I keep telling everyone I want to attend our wedding again as guests just to see all the details she worked so hard on. I couldn't have done any of it without her and I can't stop gushing with our guests how beautiful the space is. The price point is incredible, especially for everything included. Our wedding day was perfect and i can't imagine it would have been the same if held anywhere else.
We had the best experience having our wedding at The Monarch! Everyone was so great to work with and we’re pretty much always available to answer any questions for us along the way...

pretty with real chairs (not flimsy folding chairs), faux marble top tables, perfect size bar and buffet tables. My daughter could not have chosen a better place

Our wedding at The Monarch was beyond perfect! Kellie was so great to work with throughout the planning process! She has made The Monarch absolutely stunning!
The Monarch met all of my expectations I had for my wedding day. The building gives you a big city feel in a small town. It is beautiful and the simplicity of the space gives you f...
ree reign of decorating it however you want. Although we went with the elopement package, it was still gorgeous with minimal decor. From the white brick to the upstairs black wall, and the suites being the perfect photo spot. Our day felt like a dream and forever obsessed with our wedding venue!! Kellie was quick to respond to our emails and helped us with the planning process as well. Could not recommend this place enough.
