Our historic home was built in 1911 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. It was popularly known around Franklin as the home and studio of photographer Sam Causey for nearly forty years. The iron gates made popular in his portraits are still in use today. The house provides countless settings for beautiful portraits as well as dressing rooms for the wedding party.
T H E G A R D E N
Our garden is truly magical. From the street, you would never know there is a hidden oasis in the heart of downtown Franklin, Tennessee. It is the perfect location for intimate wedding ceremonies, the cocktail hour or just a leisurely stroll after enjoying dinner in the pavilion.
T H E P A V I L I O N
Day or night, a party in our pavilion looks and feels amazing. It is a blank canvas ready for you to customize with your unique style. Any color palette will look perfect with our lush garden as your backdrop. A wide variety of special event lighting is available including chandeliers and string lights. You can also choose from many different styles of tables, linens and chairs to truly personalize the space.
