I know, I know Nashville is for the party people too! Nashville, Tennessee is known as the country music capital of the world. A city filled with bachelorette parties and nicknamed “NashVegas”. However, if you explore outside the famous Broadway scene, visiting Nashville for a date weekend can be romantic and super fun!
My husband and I spent 3 nights in Nashville last fall. We, of course, witnessed the party animals downtown on Broadway, but we spent most our time discovering the adorable neighborhoods, the quaint restaurants, rooftop bars and boutique shops. Nashville has revolutionized itself as a premier dining destination! The food was delicious everywhere. I don’t think we had one bad meal.
I spent weeks compiling a list of Nashville favorites for you. Where to stay, where to eat, where to hear great music, where to have cocktails, and where to shop. I’m certain I’ve missed some…therefore, I’ll have to go back! Nashville is so much fun and a great “quickie” trip!
Stay
We stayed at the JW Marriott. As Titanium members, we booked a basic king room on points, and we received a complimentary room upgrade to an executive corner suite. We love perks! Our Marriott status also provided us daily breakfast…but it’s Nashville, and although we were grateful, we had to check out other restaurants for breakfast!
We loved this property’s contemporary interior, location, top floor panoramic hotel bar, and Bourbon Bar. I took this photo at sunset. Amazing views!
Other properties worth mentioning: The Omni, The Thompson Hotel and The Noelle Hotel Nashville.

Budget Tips
We scored $112/roundtrip airline tickets on Delta through momondo.com. When deals are this good, we save our points. However, we used our Chase Sapphire Reserve credit card to purchase the tickets, dine out and for ubers. 3x points per dollar spent on travel and dining…and yes, Uber counts as travel! We walked as often as we could.
Nashville will not disappoint! Find your way off broadway. Discover the neighborhoods filled without outstanding restaurants.
I can help you get to Nashville on the cheap. Book a 1:1 with me and I’ll show you how! XOXO, Tiffany

TIFFANY HELPED MY HUSBAND AND I EARN A VACATION TO CROATIA BY USING SPECIFIC TRAVEL CREDIT CARDS ON OUR DAUGHTER’S WEDDING. WE HAD PLANNED TO WRITE CHECKS TO ALL OF THE VENDORS, SO GLAD WE MADE A 1:1 COACHING CALL.
Liz R.
WITH TIFFANY’S GUIDANCE, we EARNED 400,000 CREDIT CARD POINTS BUT WE DIDN’T KNOW HOW BEST TO USE THEM. WE HIRED HER TO PLAN OUR TRIP USING A COMBINATION OF POINTS, MILES AND CASH (CREDIT CARD). HIRING HER WAS THE BEST MONEY I’VE EVER SPENT. SHE WENT WAY ABOVE AND BEYOND. PARIS HERE WE COME.
