Kimmie Williams(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-09-2020 We were supposed to have our wedding (ceremony and reception) at the Loveless Barn this September, but COVID forced us to move venues last minute to accommodate all of our guests. When we made the venue switch late-July, Loveless was extremely helpful and supportive of the decision. They made it so easy for us to switch venues by providing everything our contract originally granted us - bringing everything out to our new venue, setting everything up, preparing and serving the food, cutting the cake, cleaning up, and taking the rentals home. Loveless provided us with tables, tablecloths, napkins, plates, glasses, silverware, plates and silverware for cake, delicious hors d'oeuvres, a complete buffet menu, servers, bartenders, wine... the list goes on and on. We worked with Jennifer and she was extremely organized, helpful, on-top of things, cheerful, and so much fun to work with. She made wedding planning a breeze and I cannot imagine how messy switching venues would have been if we didn't have Jennifer's help. Before our venue changed, Jennifer provided outstanding service and assistance while planning our Loveless wedding. She met with us in-person to discuss details, layouts, menus, linen, vendors, etc. and was extremely knowledgeable of all the services Loveless had to offer. She helped us make our wedding dreams come true by planning the perfect day for us (and re-planning that day when things changed unexpectedly). Had we decided to stick with Loveless for our venue, they provided multiple options for us to choose from to make our big day happen. We had the option to reschedule our event completely, have a wedding on our planned date that followed current Nashville COVID restrictions, or cancel completely with a full refund and no-strings attached. I cannot speak highly enough of the service Loveless provided and HIGHLY recommend the Barn to anyone looking for a fun, country-chic wedding on the outskirts of Nashville! Reviewed on 10-09-2020
Anne Dee Charles(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-12-2019 Loveless Barn is a great, large, versatile venue. They can do or rent just about anything you want. It's also (kind of) nice to be forced to cater from them and have them bar-tend because it's one less thing for you to think about. Table linens, tables, chairs, etc. are all generally included in venue rental price as well. With that being said, I will say this venue does not cater well to out-of-town brides. I'm a Nashville native, but have relocated to Memphis, and I had to take many a Friday off of work for wedding planning. Granted, they are very busy with events on the weekends, but it's pretty inconvenient to have to meet with them before 1pm on a Friday. In that vein, the tasting for our December wedding was on a Tuesday afternoon in July...so I wasn't taking 3 days off of work for that... but we were pleasantly surprised with the quality of food at the wedding :) The Loveless staff also isn't great at quick responses, and doing everything through email was difficult and a few things fell through the cracks and weren't reflected in our layouts or proposals like they should have been. But that was a small price to pay. We still got good cake cutting pictures even though the staff didn't roll the cake table out to the dance floor as they were supposed to.Overall, Loveless was great and a perfect sized space for us and had everything we needed and great food. My main complaint is that the venue space was EXTREMELY hot. Like \"walk in and immediately start sweating\" kind of hot. Which is terrible when you're trying to greet guests and your face is dripping onto them... My dad flagged down the staff IMMEDIATELY when he arrived so they could fix the issue, but it was never resolved. My photos towards the middle of the reception and onward are pretty rough because of how sweaty I am.... Reviewed on 10-01-2020

Paul McCann(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-11-2017 The only thing I can say is wow! Loveless Barn did an amazing job on our daughter's wedding. Fabulous food, attentive staff and a can do attitude. We were to have the ceremony in the courtyard, however we got rain... no worries... the staff moved the ceremony inside in less than 15 minutes and we were able to prepare to do the ceremony inside. Then, a thunderstorm came through and knocked out the power in the barn and for the surrounding area... now what???Matt and Ashley swung into action... and the ceremony took place in a silent, peaceful barn with a gentle breeze blowing through the open barn doors and the setting sun lighting the ceremony. I wish we would've thought of doing it that way!With the power out, the Loveless Barn staff moved heaven and earth to get the buffet ready on two small generators... got the DJ going and the string lights lit when the power came back on.The staff is worth their weight in gold and we will recommend them to anyone who would listen. They were key in turning what could've been a disaster into a wonderful memory that will last a lifetime for our daughter and new son-in-law... and give them a story to tell their children and grandchildren.You can't do any better than the LOveless Barn!
