Nestled in the heart of historic downtown Franklin, TN, CJ’s Off the Square is a stunning all-inclusive wedding venue that combines timeless Southern charm with effortless romance.

Whether you’re planning a classic soirée, a whimsical garden party, or a chic modern celebration, CJ’s Off the Square provides the ideal canvas for any couple’s vision.

Exchange Vows in A Garden Oasis

The magic of CJ’s Off the Square begins in its lush, romantic garden. Surrounded by the soothing sounds of cascading waterfalls and birdsong, this space sets the tone for an unforgettable ceremony.

After the ceremony, let the celebration flow seamlessly into a cocktail hour. Your guests can stroll through the garden, sipping champagne and savoring hors d’oeuvres. Enhance the ambiance with cozy lounge furniture like the Charlotte Sofa and Armchairs. Go bold with velvet Fern or Jacqueline sofas, elevated with accent rugs and tables. Consider the Gold Chelsea Marble Top Bar paired with the Charleston Bistro Table for a stylish bar setup. Or, feature the Collins Black Wood Bar and Black Bookcase for hosting a bourbon-tasting station.

The pavilion at CJ’s Off the Square is the centerpiece of every celebration. This open-air structure offers a neutral, versatile space that serves as the ultimate blank canvas. It’s ideal for any style, from whimsical and romantic to modern and bold. Transform the space, starting with wood furniture. Both the Aged Oak or White Antique Dining Tables are elegant choices.

No extra color, no heavy layering. Just subtle dimension that keeps the table from falling flat ✨ It’s easy to underestimate how much glassware can shift the feel of a place setting. But when everything else is pared back, it ends up doing more than you think.

Not every wedding needs a big design moment to feel finished.

Ceremony on the lawn with fruitwood chairs and simple white bows. A clean welcome setup that does its job without asking for attention. Then inside, long banquet tables in all white, set against brick that brings in just enough contrast.

It works because nothing is trying too hard!

A great cocktail hour doesn't just happen. 🍃 It's designed. From the bar setup to the lounge seating to how guests naturally move through the space, every detail plays a role in setting the tone for the whole evening. We just dropped a new blog post breaking down exactly how we think about it. Link in bio!

That sage green bar though. 🌿 A statement bar rental isn't just a place to grab a drink, it's one of the first things guests notice when they walk in. The right color and finish can set the entire tone for your event before anyone even finds their seat.

A botanical china pattern, wicker chargers, vintage glassware, and a hand-illustrated menu that ties it all together. 🌿 This is exactly the kind of magic that happens when you take the time to build your table intentionally. Our Franklin showroom is the perfect place to do just that, seeing how every piece plays together before your big day.

A checkered dance floor, a velvet cocktail linen, a rustic bar, and disco balls under a clear tent. ✨ Proof that mixing textures and rental pieces is how you take an event space from pretty to unforgettable. The secret? Pick one bold statement piece and build around it.

Farm tables, oval back chairs, and a dreamy outdoor lounge set the scene for a wedding reception that feels both elevated and effortlessly relaxed. 🌿 One of our favorite things about farm table rentals is how naturally they lend themselves to any style, from intimate garden weddings to grand outdoor receptions. Pair them with our Harlin Chairs and a lounge area and you've got a setup guests will never want to leave.
