We have two hotel blocks near the airport! They are approximately 15 minutes from the location of our wedding ceremony and reception, and 15 minutes from downtown Nashville. Please use the website link to book reservations for our block!
Alternatively, hotels near the Grand Ole Opry are within 20 minutes of the wedding ceremony/reception, and close to downtown Nashville as well! Mount Juliet near the mall also has good hotel locations.
If you are looking for vacation rentals, East Nashville and Donelson neighborhoods are great locations! There may be great spots near Old Hickory Lake. If there is one area of Nashville you should absolutely avoid, it is North Nashville. They have several rentals available that are nice, but the neighborhood is still not great.
