Celebrate your special day at Ijams Nature Center where lush green foliage and subtle sounds of nature will provide an intimate, enchanting backdrop for your ceremony. Centrally located five minutes from downtown Knoxville, this 300+ acre wildlife sanctuary and green space is one of Knoxville’s greatest treasures. Choose to have your wedding or event at the historic home site, and enjoy the floor to ceiling views of forests, flowers and sky. The beautifully rustic arbors provide a natural framework for the bride and groom and may be decorated to suit your particular style. Wedding ceremonies are conducted at the Ijams Home Site where the legacy of the Ijams Family started in 1910. This is the only section of the property specifically designated for wedding day events. Enjoy use of the meadow, covered pavilion, tent pad and terraced gardens for the perfect setting to complement this joyous occasion. Gather your loved ones at Ijams Nature Center and celebrate your union in nature.
