Surviving the Flood

After almost 14 inches of rain in two days, many areas of our beloved city are in distress. Downtown is flooded for blocks, including many landmarks, historical sites, businesses and hotels. Opryland Hotel and Opry Mills Mall have both sustained pretty serious damage. Several residential neighborhoods on the outskirts of the city are devastated. Our hearts and prayers go out to everyone affected by this terrible tragedy.


Our hotel was lucky enough to come through the storm unscathed, so we wanted to post a quick note to our clients and friends that everything here is OK.


We have no damage, and there is no trouble getting to or from the hotel -- the airport and all the interstates are open. All meetings and events are proceeding as scheduled. If any of our valued colleagues have any groups that need to be displaced due to damage or flooding, please keep us in mind. We're happy to help! Here's hoping to things in Nashville are back to business as usual soon!!

Lovely Bridal Show Pics!

We recently participated in the Perfect Wedding Guide Bridal Show at the Frist on Sunday, February 21. Did you attend? If not, you missed a very nice boutique show with lots of information, lots of cupcakes, and lots of people ready to help with every aspect of your wedding planning!

Here is a snapshot of our exhibit, which was designed with a retro 1940s-1950s theme to introduce our new Hollywood Glamour upgrade for wedding receptions! If you are a Glamour Girl and you're looking for a reception venue that will help you infuse this kind of style into your event, give us a call!


We call these Mar-teenys! They were filled with lemonade for the show, but how fun would it be to have real martinis or your signature cocktail passed in these miniature glasses during your cocktail hour? The possibilities are endless...
Special thanks to Connie Duglin Linen for providing the linen for the show! =)

Rachel and Jeremy are a lovely couple with wonderful families, and we were so happy to help them with their recent wedding reception. Definitely one of the most beautiful we've had here, their reception had a classic, polished elegance with decorations featuring black and white damask table overlays and chair ties HAND MADE by the mother of the bride! Here are some of the pictures they were kind enough to share with us!
