Proud to be part of the Sewanee experience since 1997.
Visit our kitchen and gardens and you’ll see that for us, entertaining is not just a special event, it’s a way of life. Quite simply, we serve the food we love to eat, with the special touches that transform a meal into an experience. Our dishes are inspired by old family recipes, exotic travels and fresh local ingredients, and then artfully presented in some of Tennessee’s most enchanting settings.
After more than 20 years in business, our reputation has been earned through attention to detail and unforgettable meals. What started with a backyard brick oven has grown into Sewanee’s premiere event designer with all the staff, services, and amenities for any scale event. Whether it’s an intimate dinner party or a bustling reception, Natural Bridge Events can design an experience that is personal and distinctive.
It's a privilege to be part of the University of the South experience and the Sewanee community.
