Common House Chattanooga is a modern social club and wedding venue, housed in the historic 1920’s YMCA. Bookable by both members and non-members alike, Common House offers three unique private event spaces, coupled with in-house catering, full bar services, exclusive furniture, audio/visual equipment, and a professional waitstaff. Whether your dream event is an intimate soirée or a grand celebration, Common House will help bring your vision to life.
The property offers picturesque private event spaces for both indoor and outdoor celebrations. Couples are invited to choose from our three event spaces, or pair them all together to create a natural flow: a ceremony and cocktail hour in the Garden with a reception in Ruby Hall or the Pennybacker Room.
Ruby Hall, the flagship venue, accommodates reception parties from 50 to 175, where natural lighting, exposed brick, and chandeliers fill the space with a rare ambience. The mezzanine level gives newlyweds a bird's-eye view of their celebration, and the built-in stage provides a natural location for a live band or DJ.
The Pennybacker Room is a more intimate gathering space, providing a unique setting for first looks, cocktail hours, intimate ceremonies, and smaller receptions. Use it as a stop on your itinerary or plan your entire day around its grand beams and original tile work.
Finally, for a breath of fresh air, the Garden is your spot. Host on-site ceremonies, cocktail hours, and outdoor parties for up to 95 seated, or 150 for a cocktail-style reception. The venue also offers six on-site guest rooms and a luxurious Bridal Suite, providing the perfect space for you and your wedding party to stay and get ready for the festivities.
Whether you’re looking to host a gathering for 20 or a party for 200, Common House will bring your ceremonies, receptions, engagement parties, rehearsal dinners, and bridal showers to life from start to finish.
