Wedding Prices

Bonne Terre is a 23 acre property in Nesbit, MS, 30 minutes from anywhere in Memphis, that includes an event venue, a white chapel, a 10 bedroom inn called Bonne Terre Inn, and 3 bedroom inn called the Fountain House, a one bedroom room called the Cottage Room, and a restaurant called BT Prime. The inns are open 24/7. The inn and restaurant are open to the public but can also be rented out by the wedding party! You could potentially rent out the whole inn for the weekend and have your wedding party and guests all in one place, no need to worry about a party bus! You can also rent out the restaurant for a rehearsal dinner as well, just call 662-781-5100 ex 1 for inn inquiries and ex 2 for the restaurant.

Ashley Hall is the name of our reception hall. Typically people have their wedding ceremony in the chapel and then have their reception (family reunion, birthday party, etc) in Ashley Hall.

The chapel has the capacity for 200 people to sit in the pews. There is space in the back of the chapel to hold 50 more people standing or sitting in chairs from the venue. The reception hall, Ashley Hall, can hold 200 people sitting at 25 tables, 8 people per table. However, with the addition of a dance floor, cake table, DJ table, etc., 21 tables with 168 people is more comfortable. Additionally, you could replace some of the bigger tables for bistro tables for people to stand at and easily get 225 people inside.

You could technically have 300 people sat at traditional round tables, but the bar, dance floor, etc. would have to be outside. We’ve had wedding that rent tents from other vendors and this works great!

Please see the available dates information (link to dates available) 

When the contract is signed, we require a non-refundable half down payment of whatever your total amount is plus a refundable $500 security deposit. That total will vary depending on the day of the week that is booked for and rates can be found here (link to rates). The $500 will be returned to you after the wedding in full if nothing is damaged or missing. (Most weddings have no issues with this). Please note this half down does not include the cost of your alcohol if you choose to have a bar (link to bar rates). 30 days prior to the wedding date we require the second half payment to finalize your reservation. 

First, check out the available dates (link to dates available). You can email [email protected] or call 662-781-5100 ext 3. We will get back with you and start the process! YAY!

We kindly request that all tours are by appointment only. You can email [email protected] or call 662-781-5100 ext 3 to request a tour.

Yes, We will always have a day of manager on the property. They will let the wedding party and vendors into the building and be able to assist if they have any questions about where things are located like ladders, brooms, etc. They are not employed to decorate, coordinate, etc but there to simple help see things along!

No, no one on property is employed to be a coordinator or planner. Bonne Terre is simply the vessel for your big day! However we are more than happy to have our day of manager work with your own coordinator to answer any questions they have about the venue!

Everything is handled for the bar by us! We will provide a day of manager as well as a bartender that will both be bartending the event. All you need to do is tell us which bar option you’d like. You can choose to not have a bar, have a cash bar, dollar limit bar, or unlimited open bar that is based on your final headcount. See the details on all the bar plans here (link to the bar plan)

Of course you have our 13 rooms available with our 2 inns on property, the Big Inn and Little Inn. We also have a honey moon suite you can email us about if you’re interested.

You have a choice of choosing our in house catering (at a separate cost from your booking) or a caterer from our preferred list of caterers here (link to preferred caterer list). It’s a matter of preference! If you choose to not use us, you must choose from our preferred caterer list, not that they make us money, but because we’ve vetted many caterers over the years and have chosen the best in the area that have shown to have great food and great service at every wedding! If you do want to use our catering while using our event space, you can contact Christy at 662-781-5100 ex 3. Pricing will depend on your food choices, head count, etc. 

You will contact them directly, we are just simply offering our best options of caterers to choose from.

For our catering, there is a $1,500 minimum.

No fireworks or sparklers, but cold spark machines are fine and look amazing in pictures!

Vehicles can be left overnight, but if we have a wedding the next day they must be picked up by 10 AM

The Music has to end at 10:30 to ensure that you, all of your items, and all of the vendors are off property by midnight.

All of the rental items must be delivered and picked up during rental period unless given permission by Christy. You’ll be in contact with her for your contracts and info and yall can work that out then.
