Looking for the perfect venue for your wedding ceremony, reception, or rehearsal dinner (or all three)? Ruby, a boutique Nashville venue, might just be the perfect location for you! Ruby is one of our favorite wedding venues, and we just took a tour of it last weekend! It’s even more beautiful in person, but here are some pictures to give you an idea of what all they have to offer:

“We typically hold at least one Nashville wedding event – rehearsal dinner, ceremony and/or reception – each week at Ruby (sometimes many more!). So that’s a lot of wedding celebrations, and married couples, at Ruby. We’re flattered that they chose Ruby and feel emotionally connected to each one. Depending upon the decor, the space can be designed for a classic, modern, or vintage/industrial styled wedding. Maybe it’s because our space is so flexible, we tend to attract a wide variety of super creative couples and celebrations. That keeps things interesting.” – Ruby

Ruby is an especially good option if you’re planning a wedding on a day other than Saturday!
“We want Ruby to be as accessible as possible to creative couples in Nashville. We therefore offer markedly reduced wedding prices for days other than Saturday.” – Ruby

One of the biggest decisions to make when planning your wedding is what theme to choose! I think one of the best ways to express your wedding theme is by the centerpieces you choose for your reception tables. You can make a bold statement with your centerpieces. Yes, traditionally most centerpieces include floral arrangements and candles, but that doesn’t mean you can’t step outside of the box!
There are so many themes to choose from such as rustic, chic, glamorous, etc. Your wedding day is all about you and your spouse, so it should express both of you! If you’re not into the whole flower ordeal, you could use lanterns, candle arrangements, pictures, lamps, etc. If you do like the more traditional route of floral arrangements, candles, and decor, you have so much to work with.
Your floral arrangement can express you, your wedding theme, and even the season. Check out this inspiration board with some centerpiece ideas.

Nashville Sweets is a local boutique bakery in East Nashville built on the love of food, art and Jesus. Specialties include custom desserts such as cakes, cupcakes, cake pops and other confections.

“Amazingly creative work and deliciously tasting cakes. They exceeded our very high expectations … Beyond measure!” – Mary

“Our wedding cake—FLAWLESS, CREATIVE, FREAKING DELICIOUS. On top of that, we had a groom’s cake and cake pops. We met with an ENTIRE LIST of cake vendors and Nashville Sweets was the ONLY ONE worthy of hiring. Their cake was the ONLY ONE that was creative and MOIST.” – Emily

If you have any questions or would like us to set up your complimentary tasting, contact us today.

We are also delighted to announce a new service offered by one of our wedding entertainment vendors, Cosmo Creations.  In addition to the great sound and lighting services they already provide, they will now be our go-to vendor for photo booths! Read below for more information on this fun new option to make your wedding even more memorable.

What do you get when you toss your family, friends and guests into a photo booth, fit on some oversized sunglasses and bow ties, slap on a moustache and loop a feather boa around Great Aunt Sally? Hours of entertainment and fun, and unique keepsakes both you and your guests will cherish forever.

“Instead of using the traditional guest book at your wedding, you can opt for these photography collections which capture the memorable moments of your event. Our attendants create a one-of-a-kind scrapbook out of these fantastic shots and have the guests sign their names and well-wishes. Our props add an element of silliness to the photo booth experience, which makes it a great way for adults to feel like kids again and keeps children entertained for hours. We offer online galleries and can provide digital copies of all the photos taken at the event. Our photo booths often become a hub of activity, giving your guests the opportunity to mingle and meet while you enjoy your big day, knowing your guests are being happily entertained and making memories.” – Cosmo Creations
