Guidelines & Policies

Event Rental Policies

Rental Policies subject to change without notice.

In order to maintain the historical integrity of Belle Meade Plantation, the following guidelines must be met.  Please remember that Belle Meade Plantation is, first and foremost, a historic museum.  Belle Meade Plantation exists for the benefit of the public, which may place constraints on the properties and their availability.  We appreciate your understanding of the extra care involved to insure our properties are available for public enjoyment and will gladly furnish you with additional copies of our guidelines for your caterer, florist, or event planner. 

You are responsible for conveying our policies to any vendors, and their failure to respect our guidelines could result in forfeiture of your security fee. 

Belle Meade Plantation Grounds, Garden, Carriage House, Stables and Martin Education Building are available for rental for private functions generally AFTER 5:30 P.M.  However, special provisions may be made for day-time rental dependent on the space needed.  Access to staff offices for any reason during an evening event is prohibited.  By hosting or participating in an event at Belle Meade Plantation, you and your guests have given permission for the use of any photographs or videos in Belle Meade Plantation publications.  Rates are based on event size and type.  Rental pricing and packaging is available for wedding related events, corporate events, non-profit fundraisers, and private events.
