This review would absolutely have been 5/5 stars had they not recommended the Flower Fairy for florals. The Flower Fairy was the most unprofessional person I have ever worked with. I should have done the research on my own instead of taking the planners word on it after seeing one example of her work and that is on me, but I would have never expected the outcome to be what it was. I specifically asked that the only flowers at the wedding be sunflowers. I gave her all the freedom on greenery, but as far as flowers... ONLY SUNFLOWERS. Seems like a reasonable request since it was my wedding, but I guess not. She used strawflowers for the boutonnières and the cake. I am pretty chill. This is something that could have been addressed at a later time and we could have came to a solution. Instead... she approached me at my wedding and tried to defend her decision making process. I was SHOCKED! She said that she chose to do strawflowers for the boutonnières because she felt like sunflowers would be too heavy. I explained that we had bought special pocket inserts for that exact reason. It was just so unprofessional for her to approach me during my wedding. I never got an explanation as to why there wasn't even one sunflower on the cake. The only thing that was ever done to make any attempt to make the situation right was a $300 refund (which is a joke considering the amount of money we spent on florals), but there will never be anyway to go back and fix it. My wedding pictures will always look like the groomsmen were wearing cheap weeds on their suits and the cake... oh the cake. It was just so bad. If she had any type of professional place this review would be there, but she doesn't and I wouldn't anyone to have the experience that I did.

This is a perfect venue in downtown Nashville. It is a beautiful converted church right across from…read morethe Omni. I came for a friends wedding in January. When we arrived for the cocktail hour, there was a coat check at the bottom of the stairs. Then the set of stairs led up to the main ballroom. During cocktail hour, the staff was delightful bringing around the hors d'oeuvres and the bartenders were super friendly. Some of my favorite hors d'oeuvres included the candied bacon and shrimp and grits. I enjoyed the pear salad we started with. It had blue cheese and a sweet yogurt dressing. The entree was prime rib with sides of mashed potato and green beans. The prime rib and mashed potato were pretty good. The green beans were okay. Overall, the food was solid for a catered dinner. The main ballroom fits about 14 round tables of 10 with a dance floor. The bathrooms are located underneath the stairs that go up into the balcony. The balcony is big enough to fit about 10 more round tables of 10 and it has a beautiful view of the downstairs. There is also a patio on the main floor. During the winter wedding I attended, the patio was heated and provided a nice space for more room to hang out. The space at this venue is incredible and fits a large amount of people.

The puppy was found injured, and the organization does an incredible job making sure dogs get the proper care from veteranians and caretakers alike. They scheduled a surgery for our foster dog within the month, and gave us detailed instructions on how to take care of him post operation. The organization is guided by animal behaviorists who offer numerous Zoom session classes on how to train dogs of any age. To get dogs adopted, Agape takes great care making sure dogs are matched across several categories to adoring homes. Everything this organization does is thorough and thoughtful, ensuring dogs are properly cared for. If you're hoping to adopt a dog or help foster one, this is an excellent organization to work with!

They would like to raise funds to build a facility that will be a huge rescue, rehab, sanctuary and education center in SC also. Kim is easy to talk to. She loves animals and this is her passion.

Need less to say we continued inside. I'm no sure if this is handicap assessible as we walkeeld up a lil incline to steps. When entering we were looked at in a way that was not warming. However, a voice came from the bar area with directions. We chose to to the flight. The choices were selected with a little help from the bar. They came out pretty quickly. The tasting started and it out of 5, only one did not have a nasty and strong hoppy/bitter after taste. The select were Passion fruit, Hippies and Cowboy, Southern Wit, Urban Hiker, and Wildwood. As we spent our time no one seem to as if we needed anything or if our selection were ok. We got some "why are you in here type" looks. I was not impressed by this brewery.

They have a steady coffee menu (I had a nice Americano this morning) and also have some food items (appealing to both kids and adults, with chicken fingers, pizza, a Turkey pesto sandwich, grilled cheese, bagels w/ cream cheese, muffins, plus other snacks like breakfast bars, candy, chips, etc). They are constantly working to make the space welcoming for everyone, and literally building things left and right.
