I had the wonderful opportunity of touring Venue at Birchwood this summer, and it is the exact definition of modern, classic, and timeless glam! I absolutely love the architecture and beauty of their buildings. In my opinion, this venue was designed to really draw in those brides looking for an architecturally rich, modern, and bright space for their wedding day!
The Venue at Birchwood was designed to accommodate up to 250 guests, and you can tell that the venue owners thought really hard about how to design every aspect of this property. When guests first arrive to the venue, they can enter into the chapel, which is where the ceremony normally takes place!
After the ceremony is complete, guests can move to the outdoor area which is commonly referred to as the cocktail hour space. They even have an open air space and a covered space to choose from depending on weather. This outdoor area has beautiful golden lights that just make the space!
After cocktail hour is over and photos have finished, the guests can then move into the Reception Barn space, which is bright, spacious, and glamorous! Guests can enjoy a delicious meal while watching all of the reception events take place!
The venue provides 26 Wood Tables for the reception.
While I was touring Birchwood, several unique aspects of the venue stood out to me! First, in the Bridal Suite (which is an absolutely radiant space), there’s a curtain area for changing.
I love this design detail because it gives you and your bridesmaids a choice as to where to change. Second, the Grooms Suite also has a cool space for your groomsmen to change into their attire. As a Nashville Wedding Photographer, I’ve only seen this design detail at a few select wedding venues. This type of detail would definitely be a decision maker for me!
The Bridal Suite is located on the main floor of the Reception Barn to ensure easy access for whenever the bride needs to come and go from this beautiful, white space.
Next, we take a quick peek at the Groom’s Suite…!
The Groom Suite is located in the basement of the Reception Barn; however, I will add that it’s a very cool looking and rustic groom’s suite. Birchwood definitely took their time when designing these spaces!
Next, we take a closer look at the outdoor design of Birchwood…!
As a photographer, I love beautiful romantic portraits of my couples outside their wedding venue in the glowy sunlight. The Venue at Birchwood has carefully designed the outside of their venue to be elegant and just stunning! I love all the greenery and trees that frames the venue!
The staff at this venue is just so wonderful and kind. While I was touring and photographing Birchwood, Andrea, was giving a tour to a bride. And I noticed that Andrea was very passionate about explaining everything to this bride, which is a huge deal when it comes to choosing the perfect venue for your wedding day! How the staff treats potential couples is 110% important!
Venue at Birchwood also has their own green background you can use as a photo backdrop, which is a huge design perk!
Birchwood also has a balcony in the reception space that can be used for additional seating, a photo booth, other vendors, or a DJ to setup. The space has some cute couches and a table.
If you’re looking for the perfect modern and bright space for your wedding day, we as Nashville Wedding Photographers highly recommend this venue! AND if you’re still searching for the right wedding photographer who understands you, your vision, and wants to celebrate your day with you, we’d absolutely love to chat with you!
