After tying the knot in this charming and classic interior, you can make your way downstairs to the large reception area. This spacious hall comes with a remodeled kitchen, a lounge where loved ones can socialize, and a bar that was made in Egypt. Two get-ready suites are also available and are fully furnished with chic and elegant accents. The Old Franklin Church can be rented from one to three days for truly comprehensive wedding weekends.
