NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — It’s a love story; just say yes to getting married in Castle Gwynn!
Located less than 40 minutes from Nashville , the same castle where Taylor Swift filmed her 2008 music video ‘Love Story,’ will soon be open as a wedding and honeymoon destination.
The owner and creator of Castle Gwynn explained how the castle was built on a true love story, an experience he hopes to share with others.

“It’s a dream come true, and I’ve had so many people share in the dream that have made it happen,” Mike Freeman, owner and mastermind of Castle Gwynn, said.
Freeman and his wife, Jackie Freeman, had their first date at the site where the castle is now.
Years later, in 1988, they married and honeymooned in the castle. Together, they developed their home into a castle. Their love and the castle have not stopped growing since.
“Most women do a construction job on a house, six weeks to a month or two they are out of their mind,” Freeman said. “She has had to live with it for 38 years. Not a lot of women that could put up with that, so she is quite a remarkable person.”
