Early visitors to The Hermitage, as well as Andrew Jackson’s letters, note Rachel’s fondness and special interest for the garden. This one-acre garden adjacent to The Hermitage was designed in the 19th century and served as a favorite spot for both Andrew and Rachel Jackson. Today, its beauty has only continued to blossom as it hosts many wedding ceremonies and receptions throughout the season.

What started with a dating app message and a first date at a Mexican food restaurant turned into quite the affair last October, when Lindsey and Jay tied the knot here at Andrew Jackson’s Hermitage!

This dreary January day has us dreaming back to June, when Andrew Jackson’s Hermitage hosted the gorgeous wedding of Courtney & Joe. These colorful summer florals brightened up our Cabin by the Spring and were one of our favorite centerpieces of the year! Including fresh cut citrus fruit and eucalyptus, this creative addition made us want to plan a summer soiree of our own.

This week we’re thinking back to October 2018 which brought all the whimsy, vintage, and natural tones you could imagine with Annmarie and Taylor’s dreamy indoor/outdoor ceremony and reception.

Savannah and Conner tied the knot at Andrew Jackson's Hermitage on May 5, 2018. Their ceremony took place in The Church with a reception to follow at the Tulip Grove Mansion. The cocktail hour took place inside the mansion and spilled into the back yard, which held a large tent for dinner and dancing. The simple and minimalist decor wowed guests with mostly neutral tones, letting the gorgeous historic venue speak for itself. Macaroons instead of wedding cake is a popular trend we have seen on the rise at weddings this year, and it was certainly a hit with the guests.
