Cedarvine Manor is CLOSED! Details coordinated 2 weddings at Cedarvine Manor in Lebanon, TN in 2008. Cedarvine was one of my favorite venues! It was when I was looking for a location for a 2010 bride that I found out their website was down and phone disconnected. Bummer! I reached out to some of my favorite vendors and no one had any news on what happened to them.
Last weekend, at the Nashville Lifestyles Bridal Show, I chatted with Ashley of http://www.ashleysbrideguide.com/. She got word that several brides had been displaced with Cedarvine closing and they needed help. One bride reached out to me earlier this week. Her date was set for 10/10/10. She now has no venue for her special day.
BREAKING NEWS: According to all reports, Cedarvine Manor has been foreclosed. It will be up for auction next month. If you are a bride who booked Cedarvine for your 2010 or 2011 wedding, please contact Details by Margaret for help. Reports say that most deposits have been returned but I have already heard from a couple of brides who didn’t even know the manor closed. If you haven’t been contacted by them, there is a good chance that you will not hear from them. I can help. First, the following venues have offered a special rate for brides who signed with Cedarvine. Dates are booking up quickly so the time is now to get on the books with a new venue! (Discounts are provided with proof of Cedarvine contract.) I will let you know as I hear from others.
