Jamie & Lindsie are absolutely fantastic to work with from start to finish. They want your experience with the venue to be spectacular. Harper Hall is located one block from an outdoor ceremony space (Gratz Park), but also has a ceremony space available on its property for a rain plan. Having that option available is very hard to find. It is also easily accessible to numerous downtown hotels and airbnbs!

Everything went so smoothly and it was just a beautiful setting to get married at. Would highly recommend this venue!

My Old Kentucky Barn 

5.0

Williamstown, KY
  • Up to 214 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $2,500

My Old Kentucky Barn is a new venue in an old tobacco barn. The 1800’s barn is situated on over 50 acres on Main Street in Williamstown, Kentucky. Our owner John grew up in Williamstown and, along with his brother Mike, spent a lot of time painting the white board fence and planting Canna bulbs in the spring. John is only the fourth owner of the property in 180 years. The Webb Family were the longest running owners. In fact, they donated land from the property to form Webb Park to the south. John and Edna Risen purchased the property in 1976 and sold it to John over 15 years ago. There is so much history here and we are excited that others can now enjoy the barn. Even though the outside of the barn looks new, all of the old detail is still there on the inside. We know that brides and grooms will make great memories here with their families. It will also be the perfect venue for milestone birthday parties, reunions and other memorable events.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Dressing room available
  • Wheelchair accessible
  • Has an intimate atmosphere

Venue considerations

  • No in-house lighting and sound packages available
  • Couple must handle cleanup and setup

The wedding was perfect for our wedding and reception. Our family and friends were welcomed by a beautiful wedding and venue. The staff was very helpful in set up and clean-up. The venue made our special day even more special! There was plenty of room for our approximately 125 guests, the caterer and the music DJ. We would highly recommend My Old Kentucky Barn for your special day.

The Ashley Inn 

5.0

Lancaster, KY
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $2,500

The nostalgic Ashley Inn is the most romantic location for your Kentucky bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, wedding weekend, and out-of-town guests. Celebrate lakeside near a gorgeous weeping willow, on the front lawn of the antebellum mansion, or in our newly-constructed, fully-enclosed Carriage House. The Inn and surrounding 130 acres is the ideal location and comes equipped with all the facilities and staff you need. Step through the doors of this classic federal-style home into a historic picture book. From the white oak floors to the handmade glass panes, experience life in a bygone era. The Inn was conceived in 2007, but this beautiful home dates back to 1840. Built by a southern family whose son-in-law would eventually march by the estate on his way to fight in the Civil War. It has since served as a dairy, a school, and is now the center of The Meadow Lake Equestrian Center, our on-site multi-discipline full-service equestrian facility.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a dance floor to dance the night away
  • Natural elegance with open spaces
  • Provides setup and cleanup

Venue considerations

  • Not wheelchair accessible

  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
The Ashley Inn was the perfect venue, they have great staff and Heidi is a joy to work with . If you want the ideal Kentucky themed wedding look no further than the Ashley Inn. The venue is nice for out of town wedding party members as the venue sleeps 14 plus people. My only recommendation would be to add additional fans in the barn for late night dancing. We had both barn doors open, but no summers breeze so the barn heated up fast for dancing.

The best wedding venue ever! Thanks to Janna and her team, everything came together so perfectly and went smoothly on our wedding day. 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. It was absolutely magical to walk in to the venue on our wedding day and have everything already set up. Our friends and family were able to just come, celebrate, and enjoy the wedding with us instead of worrying about setting things up and tearing things down at the end of the night. I absolutely recommend the Bluegrass Wedding Barn. They are the perfect wedding venue for anyone who wants a stress free wedding day in the gorgeous Kentucky countryside!
