While there are many beautiful venues in the area to choose from, I would strongly recommend the Silo's to anyone searching for a venue in Western KY. The staff are phenomenal and are so responsive in any way. They are more than willing to answer any questions or even provide suggestions, if needed. The facility itself is gorgeous. It is really the best of both worlds - modern conveniences with rustic elegance. We had good size wedding party of about 175 people and it we still had plenty of room for dancing, DJ, photo booths, bars, head tablet, buffet and appetizers and dessert table. They also have a beautiful bridal house to use the day of for hair and makeup and the men have a huge area for getting ready as well. I couldn't have asked for anything better!

Cassie and Danny Dennis at Silent Grove were an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication was always prompt, helpful and friendly, which made planning our wedding day a breeze. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful - very spacious, warm and intimate. They went out of their way to ensure everything was neat and taken care of, even drying the benches outside when it rained that morning. They also offered assistance for my mother, who was in a wheelchair, to easily access the outdoor area. I would highly recommend Silent Grove to any couple looking for a wonderful wedding venue with an attentive and accommodating staff.

Choosing PARLOUR Frankfort Ave for our rehearsal dinner was such a great decision! The vibe there is super chill and welcoming. They have this outdoor patio that's just so cute with plants, Edison lights, and some really cool murals—it's all very laid-back. Plus, part of it is covered, so we didn’t even worry about rain. They've got this big turf area where everyone hung out playing games and lounging in Adirondack chairs or around cocktail tables. Oh, and the private bar was a hit—it really kept the night going. The food was amazing! We had an assortment of appetizers—totally recommend the bruschetta, wings, and breadsticks. Plus, they served a variety of specialty pizzas and salad. Loved how we could still have my favorite food, pizza, but make it feel fancy for the event. The staff was awesome too, totally made sure everything went smoothly. Got so many compliments from our friends and family about the place. Big thanks to the PARLOUR team for making our rehearsal dinner not just any dinner, but a really fun night to remember!

The Bluegrass Wedding Barn team brought our wedding vision to life. Planning was so easy and stress free considering we were planning our wedding from a distance and moved states in the middle of the process.

The Drees Pavilion sets the standard for event celebrations. Located on the highest overlook in Devou Park above Covington, Kentucky, the 10,000-square-foot pavilion was built and donated by The Drees Company in 2003 to commemorate its 75th Anniversary. An interior renovation was completed in March 2020, adding modern fixtures & finishes, thoughtful upgrades, and elegant furniture options.

  • Not for you if you are drawn to more unconventional venues
  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • No on-premises lodging options
The Drees Pavilion was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. Their communication throughout the planning process was timely, efficient, and thoroughly addressed all of our questions. The venue itself offered beautiful views and they provided many decorations we were able to use if we wanted. They went above and beyond, holding extra meetings with us to hammer out all the details and timeline before the big day. Despite a few things going wrong, including some last-minute weather changes, the Drees Pavilion team kept the day running smoothly. (We never knew if and when anything went wrong!) They did an excellent job of quickly flipping the ceremony from outdoor to indoor with only a few minutes notice, which prevented us from running too far behind schedule. The space was set up perfectly, and we couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. We highly recommend the Drees Pavilion to any couple looking for a beautiful, stress-free wedding day. If you are looking for somewhere to get ready and spend the first half of the day, Drees is not for you as they do not offer that. We did feel a little short on space and a “calm” environment in the areas the bride and groom and bridal party were sitting to wait for the ceremony to begin. I chose this venue largely because of the great rainout plan- they let me decide about 45 min pre ceremony on indoor vs outdoor and moved everything I wanted inside which still looked breathtaking! Kelly was an awesome coordinator and we had a great experience with Sonia and Scott as well. I would choose this venue again!

Mica and the whole staff at The Windamere really made our wedding better than we could’ve imagined. From the beginning, Mica was very straightforward and honest. All of her pricing was transparent and she was thorough with us. The venue offered the history and charm we were looking for at a decent price and Mica gave us the peace of mind by being our day of coordinator. I loved that we were all able to get ready on site and never saw each other until our first look. We also enjoyed that she has a secluded vip area for us right after the ceremony so we could take a few minutes to breathe before the reception. She helped through the decor process and was very timely with communication, especially as we were planning from 500 miles away. We are so grateful for her and her team.

Founded in 1905 by Ben Schrader and a group of local tavern owners and grocers, the original Falls City was formed to fight a big beer takeover in Louisville.

Shortly thereafter, a bottling plant was added and Falls City became one of the most popular breweries in Louisville, KY. The Falls City Beer Taproom in the NuLu neighborhood recently underwent transformation as PARLOUR steps in for a collaborative restaurant venture. The partnership highlights the shared commitment to quality and community between Falls City Beer and PARLOUR. Falls City Beer has been a popular choice at PARLOUR restaurants, and this venture represents a natural progression of the successful relationship between the two establishments.

I could go on forever about how wonderful every single person was – Ashley was amazing getting us started with HC, then seamlessly handed us over to Riley who was with us until the day of the wedding. The staff was attentive to our needs, and we were so bummed when the night was over. All our guests (including our sweet doggie) felt incredibly welcome. We have officially made it a point to visit Hotel Covington every few months for drinks, and plan to stay there again for our anniversary. Thank you to the entire team at HC : )

Venue considerations

  • Dance floor not included
  • Does not provide event staff
We hosted our wedding reception here and LOVED it. The space is beautiful on its own and does not need a lot of decorations. It was nice and easy having the alcohol provided by West Sixth (just had to meet a bar minimum, which we did easily with 80 some guests). I also liked that we were able to bring our own food in, which was provided by a local restaurant. Staff is friendly and communication was easy aside from an email glitch. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change anything!

We had our wedding reception at the Oscar Event Center June 7th and it was fabulous! The attention to detail by Josie Fickes, our wedding coordinator, in accomplishing our theme of elegant, rustic Italian and intimate group seating was perfect! I can't say enough about how professional, kind and responsive Josie was in making our vision come true! The menu selection is delicious. It will be hard to decide what you want. Our selections were delicious. Our guests are still talking about how good the food was. I have to comment on how nice it is to work with a coordinator that knows the vendors in the area to help you achieve your theme and have the best night you can for your guests. Additionally, the servers were excellent and really made our guests feel special. They go out of their way to help and attend to everyone! Thanks again Josie and Oscar staff, our reception was even better than we imagined!

Belles Fleurs & Dessins did a fabulous job with my milestone birthday celebration. Her attention to detail and making my vision come to fruition helped with all my anxiety. Quality of her flowers were superb and they stayed fresh for weeks. Venue was just breathtaking with beautiful sunset views for perfect pictures. Grazing table was mind blowing and so pretty that we just wanted to keep looking and not eat. I would highly recommend for your next event. You won’t regret it!

LockRidge Park was the perfect venue for our wedding. The staff was very easy to communicate with, and the owners live just minutes away, so they were always available to help. The park itself has multiple options for an indoor or outdoor wedding, and it also has several places for the bridal party or guests to stay overnight. They were kind enough to teach us how to properly use any equipment that came with our wedding package, and Brian even used his drone to capture a video of our wedding. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we highly recommend LockRidge Park to any couple planning their big day.

I hosted a baby shower and they did such an incredible job. The bartender was attentive and took care of the group perfectly. We had catering through Rich's Proper. The food was delicious, arrived on time, and was a generous quantity. You can feel the history in this space and see it in the original wood and brick. I would highly recommend Wenzel Whiskey for an event.
