The Lofton Venue Expands Three-Day Wedding Experience With New On-Site Cottages

Private Tennessee-Alabama border wedding venue adds five new cottages, increasing on-site lodging capacity to 40 overnight guests

ARDMORE, Tenn. — The Lofton Venue, a private 36-acre wedding venue near Huntsville, Alabama, has added five new on-site cottages as part of its continued focus on three-day wedding celebrations.

Located near the Tennessee-Alabama border, The Lofton Venue offers couples a countryside setting, all-inclusive wedding packages, and a full-property wedding weekend experience. With the addition of the new cottages, the venue is expanding its ability to host couples and their closest guests on-site for a more relaxed and connected celebration.

The expansion supports The Lofton’s shift toward three-day wedding experiences, a format designed for couples who want more time with family and friends, greater convenience for traveling guests, and a wedding weekend that does not feel rushed.

“Couples want more than a few hours at a venue,” said Amanda Smith, owner of The Lofton Venue. “They want time to settle in, celebrate with the people they love, and enjoy the full weekend together. These cottages help us create an even more seamless experience for couples and their guests.”

The new lodging includes The Couples Retreat, a private cottage designed for newlyweds with a king bed, full bath, washer and dryer, and kitchenette. Four additional guest cottages provide accommodations for family and friends, with sleeping space, private bathrooms, and kitchenettes located near the venue.

The cottages complement Serenity, The Lofton’s larger existing on-site lodging option, bringing the venue’s total overnight capacity to 40 guests. The expanded lodging allows couples to host rehearsal dinners, welcome gatherings, wedding day celebrations, and post-wedding moments in one location.

The addition also strengthens The Lofton’s position as a destination-style wedding venue for couples traveling from Nashville, Huntsville, and surrounding areas who want the feel of a wedding getaway without requiring guests to travel far from home.

Booked couples and couples still searching for a wedding venue are invited to attend The Lofton Wedding Showcase on Sunday, July 19, 2026, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Guests will have the opportunity to tour the property, explore the new cottages, sample catering and cake selections, enjoy an open bar, and meet many of the vendors included in The Lofton’s all-inclusive wedding packages.

As a special showcase offer, couples who book a new all-inclusive wedding package within 48 hours of attending the showcase will receive The Couples Retreat cottage complimentary with their booking.*

Offer valid for new bookings only.
