FAQs

When and Where?

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30 PM at CJ’s Off the Square in Franklin, TN. We recommend arriving no later than 4:15 PM. We highly encourage guests to take an Uber/Lyft to the ceremony if possible, however, if you are driving there is ample street parking near the venue and a CJ’s parking lot down the street.

After the ceremony, guests will head to the pavilion for cocktails and appetizers, followed by a full dinner. Then, the dancing begins! The event will officially end by 10 PM. We hope you’ll stay and celebrate with us as long as you want/are able!

Is it Outside?

We hope so! May in Middle Tennessee can be unpredictable, but we are hoping for clear skies and sunshine. The ceremony will be held in the garden, and the reception will be under a covered pavilion. If it rains, we have a plan to keep everyone safe and dry. We promise we won’t make you sit through a wedding in the pouring rain!

CJ’s is a fully accessible venue with paved walkways, ramps, and handicap parking spots.

What about attire?

The “dress code” for the wedding is semi-formal. For the ladies, think colorful summer dresses or jumpsuits (long or cocktail-length). For the gents, we recommend suits or a sportcoat and slacks. This is an NJA event - No Jeans Allowed :)

If you have any questions about attire, please let us know!

Is this a kid-friendly event?

Due to the size of our venue, we can only accommodate children of close family members, so book a sitter and enjoy a night of dancing and dining away from the kiddos! We truly appreciate your understanding.
