Our History
Originally built in 1904 as a church, The Historic Venue has been a part of downtown Chattanooga’s footprint for over 100 years. After renovations in 2012, the church entered a new era as a premier event venue, continuing its legacy as a timeless space for gathering and celebrating. Today, The Historic hosts weddings, dances, soirees, galas, and other celebrations, with each event adding to its vibrant history.
Capacity
The Historic offers approximately 4,800 square feet of original hardwood floors, exposed brick, and wood beams eventuating beautiful vaulted ceilings. This space can make for a modern industrial backdrop or vintage feel and won’t fail to create a warm, unique, and gorgeous event.
The venue can host 200 for both a wedding and reception in the same location. A cocktail-style reception can accommodate up to 250 guests.
Our Location

We offer parking for you and your family or bridal party in our gravel lot just next to our building as well as street parking all around the property.

The Church on Main is an incredible venue. We were able to see the space when it was under renovation and can really appreciate all the hard work and love that was put into this special place. The events here are always well managed and memorable. They are a great backdrop to our cakes!
