- Cost$99.50
- Wait PeriodNo waiting period
- Blood TestNot required
Important
The marriage license fee is paid directly to the county at the time of application — not to Elopements Inc. Both partners must apply for the license in person at the county clerk's office; we cannot obtain the license on your behalf. We walk every couple through the process step by step (where to apply, what to bring, when to go), but the application itself has to be completed by the two of you.

History & architecture
Belmont Mansion is an 1853 Italianate villa originally built as the summer estate of Adelicia Acklen, one of the wealthiest women in 19th-century America. Now operated as a historic house museum by Belmont University, the property preserves its original cast-iron gazebos, marble statuary, period rooms with hand-painted frescoes, and 8 acres of formal gardens. The estate has been a National Historic Landmark since 1971. Elopement ceremonies at Belmont Mansion are held inside, in the interior spaces — the Grand Salon, the Tete-a-Tete Parlor, the central hall under the original chandeliers — and the gardens, where the iconic gazebos and statues date back to Adelicia's original design, are for portraits.
Best photo spots on the property
The Grand Salon
Original 1853 frescoes, 14-foot ceilings, and natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows. Best for indoor ceremony photography in late afternoon when the sun angles through the west-facing windows.
Cast-iron gazebos
Two original 1850s cast-iron gazebos in the formal gardens, painted white. The most-photographed Belmont Mansion exterior spot — works in any season but peaks visually in April when the garden blooms.
Marble statuary
Adelicia's original marble statues line the garden paths. The Hebe statue and the Cupid fountain are the two most-requested portrait backgrounds.
Front portico steps
The classical front entrance with Doric columns. The most flattering Belmont Mansion 'arrival' photo.
Library
Smaller intimate room with original built-in shelves and period furniture. Best for couples-only portrait sessions where the larger spaces feel too vast.
Guest capacity
Every Belmont ceremony is held inside the mansion and begins at 5:00 PM or later, seven days a week. Packages run from 5 guests (Just Married) to 40 (Friends and Family), the largest group in the Grand Salon and the smaller ones in the parlor.
Permits & access
Belmont Mansion is a private historic house museum, not a public venue — access requires booking through an approved coordinator. Elopements Inc. holds an ongoing arrangement with Belmont that covers permits and venue access fees as part of the package price. Ceremonies begin at 5:00 PM or later, seven days a week. Couples never deal with Belmont directly.
Best season for this venue
April and October are the photographic peaks — April for garden blooms, October for the surrounding tree color and golden afternoon light through the west windows. May, June, and September are also strong. Mid-summer (July-August) is workable but the gardens look stressed by mid-afternoon. December-February: the gardens read as bare in photos.
What makes it different
Belmont is the only Nashville venue where the architecture is the photograph — the 1853 frescoes, the original chandeliers, the marble statuary all read as 'wedding setting' without any decoration or dressing required. Most Nashville venues require florals and decor to feel like a wedding; Belmont was already a wedding setting in 1853.
