We cannot say enough amazing things about this venue and the team that made our wedding day absolutely perfect! From the very beginning, Mike welcomed us with such warmth when we stopped by for a last-minute tour back in March — we immediately knew this was the place for us. On the day of our wedding, everything ran so smoothly thanks to Mike, Nick, and Karey. They checked in with us throughout the day, made sure every detail was taken care of, and created the most magical atmosphere. Every single one of our guests commented on how beautiful the property was, how attentive the staff were, and how seamless the entire evening felt. A special thank you also to Serene — she worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life and went above and beyond in every way. This was truly the wedding of our dreams, and we are endlessly grateful to this incredible team for making it happen. If you’re looking for a venue that combines breathtaking beauty, professionalism, and genuine care — this is the one.

  • Photographer

  • Serves Pekin, IN

Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. At the age of seven I stole my mom’s camera and I never gave it back — sorry mom. Growing up, I forced my younger siblings to model for me. When I was 15, I second-shot my first wedding and immediately fell in love with preserving the unforgettable chaos, emotional depth, and vulnerability of relationships present on a wedding day. As of 2025, I have photographed over 250 weddings.

Kendra was amazing to work with. First, she met with my sister and I to plan out the timeline of the wedding. She was incredibly receptive to ideas that we had and she was able to help us plan the day to make it all happen. On the day-of, even when I was still being sewn into my dress, she was sure to keep everything on time and keep us at ease. She is such a sweet soul and she made people who don’t like their photographs taken comfortable. Everyone was EXTREMELY pleased with the photographs she took. She is 1000% worth it.

One of the best things about working with them is how personal the whole experience felt. They didn’t just show up and take pictures, they got to know us a little beforehand and made sure the photos reflected who we are. By the time the wedding day arrived, it honestly felt like having friends there capturing our memories. They laughed with us, helped calm my nerves, and even reminded us to eat during the chaos. The photos are honestly breathtaking every shot looks intentional but not forced. The video is something I will never get tired of watching; it just brings back all the emotions in the best way. They worked with such professionalism while still making it lighthearted. My whole family loved them. That’s rare, and I really appreciate it.

There will never be enough words to properly sing the praises of the SantannaRain team! I remember worrying about how stressful the wedding planning process would be, and dreading it because of that. But everything changed when Nickie and her team came in to the picture! I can honestly say I enjoyed every step, and ended up thinking wedding planning was fun! I can’t imagine my wedding day without SantanaRain and think that every bride should consider hiring them for their big day!

We highly recommend the incredible team at Pillow & Paddock! From the moment we arrived, we knew we had chosen the perfect venue for our intimate wedding. Pillow & Paddock is truly a gem, offering a unique blend of elegant charm and warm hospitality that made our special day even more magical than we could have imagined. We opted for the Intimate Wedding Package with Lodge Room ceremony and were absolutely blown away by the attention to detail. The Lodge Room was beautifully prepared for our ceremony, creating a romantic and intimate atmosphere that felt so personal and heartfelt. The warmth of the fireplace added such a special touch on a cold, snowy winter day. The accommodations were luxurious and comfortable, providing a relaxing haven for us amidst the excitement of the day. We also loved the unique touches like the speakeasy for a special evening drink and the fun 1920s movie theater. The breakfast the following morning was absolutely divine – a perfect start to our first day as a married couple. Our guests were equally enchanted by the beauty of the property and the unique charm of Pillow & Paddock. The added comfort and privacy of each beautifully appointed luxury suite, complete with its own pristine bathroom, truly enhanced their stay. It provided the perfect backdrop for our intimate celebration, allowing us to truly connect with our closest loved ones in a relaxed and beautiful setting. What truly set Pillow & Paddock apart was the exceptional service. They went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly and that we felt completely taken care of. Their genuine kindness and willingness to accommodate our needs made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. If you are considering a small, intimate wedding, we wholeheartedly recommend Pillow & Paddock. It's a truly special place with a team that is dedicated to making your day unforgettable. We will cherish the memories made here forever. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything. Sincerely, Libby & Tom Newlyweds!

Our wedding was December 12, 2020, right in the middle of COVID curveballs. Two weeks out we had to slash our guest list to 25 people and leave our original venue when they couldn’t adapt. Belknap Event Center stepped in and instantly calmed the chaos. The space in Prospect, KY is gorgeous; warm wood cozy lighting, and flexible enough to feel personal even when you scale way down. We used just part of the venue footprint and it never felt empty or awkward. What really sold us: support. Glenn & the Belknap staff helped rework the layout for a smaller group, handled setup and teardown, and made sure we had a real, well-presented meal (not the sandwich pricing drama we’d been facing elsewhere). Every interaction was kind, practical, and focused on making the day feel like us, not “Plan B.” Our guests still talk about how much they loved our wedding and great the celebration was. If you want a venue that’s both beautiful and genuinely flexible, book Belknap. 10/10

I’m Sam, a wedding photographer known for thoughtful details, images that feel effortless, and a calm presence. I’ve been photographing weddings across the U.S. since 2011. Most couples tell me they’re not comfortable in front of the camera, and that’s completely normal. I’m experienced at guiding people just enough to feel at ease. Outside of weddings, I’m usually at home with my husband and our three kids, which has taught me a lot about patience, flexibility, and staying calm when plans inevitably change. Skills that turn out to be very useful on a wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I got engaged in 2023 and had planned for our wedding to be in July of 2025. For two years one of our biggest challenges was finding a photographer that was in our budget, that would still provide us with the perfect product we had invisioned in our minds. We had searched high and low finding MANY photographers that will say they can adjust their packages to fit our budget, and still somehow come up with a total of 4000 dollars. Then we found Sam. I was hesitant at first because I wanted a specific style I hadn’t seen in her galleries, a more sultry- whimsical- cinematic/ dramatic candid feel. However when I brought that up to Sam she had reassured me that her range of editorial styles and shooting styles was very large as she’s been doing this for YEARS, and had sent me some separate more recent shots she had taken to prove that. We had talked very in detail for days about the hours ineeded from her, pricing, I also explained she would be traveling (which is never a problem for Sam. She loves traveling! ) and we had made a very well customized package trimmed to fit my hours and budget. In the end I received ALL the pictures taken edited exactly how we wanted them. On the wedding day Sam did an amazing job of helping, taking charge of things, and making sure all of our needs were met. I swear she was half wedding planner half photographer. If I needed people to do something she made it happen if I needed people to start getting ready for pictures-she was on it. Her time management is absolutely insane and such a blessing to have on your wedding day. She had some of the best ideas I’ve ever heard when it came to certain poses I wanted accomplished or specific visions I had. She was energetic, hilarious, and made sure everyone had the best time taking these pictures. I couldn’t recommend Sam enough. She truly is a photography wizard and will have all of your wedding day dreams come true.

He was so flexible when our engagement shoot didn’t go exactly as planned, adjusting quickly and effortlessly and our photos turned out to be phenomenal!

He respected our timeline, guided us with a creative eye, helping us feel comfortable in front of the camera. He also made sure to capture every photo on our request list.

From candid moments and guest interactions to the small, intimate glimpses we didn’t even realize were happening, he caught it all so beautifully. The love, the pure joy, and the emotions on the faces of everyone who attended shines through in every photo of our gallery.

We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect place to start our marriage.

Hi, I'm Brittany. I have been photographing weddings for four years now and every year I look back and reflect on what makes photographing wedding so special to me. The answer is, the people that I get to meet and build a relationship with. Choosing the right wedding photographer is most important vendor that you will hire. You are more than just an email to follow up, for me I want to meet with you in person. I want to chat via text messaging and I want to get to know you and your partner. That way we can build a friendship before your wedding. Check out my work, and let's chat about how I can help you capture your special day.

Wonderful experience!! Brittany helped me and my husband feel really special on our day! Turn around time on photos was lightening fast. We got so much positive feedback on our pictures, I immediately booked her again to take pictures of my parents for their 40th anniversary! She even bought them a gift. Very sweet, would use again!!

I’m a born and raised Kentucky girl who loves to travel, pet dogs, and listen to the rain. I love love and I can't wait to capture yours. When I'm not taking photos, you can find me reading something in the fantasy genre, listening to Taylor Swift, or surfing Pinterest.

Having Sydney as our wedding photographer was truly a gift. Her mind, creativity, vision, talent, and big heart will never cease to amaze me. Neither myself, my husband, or any of our friends or family have spent much time in front of a camera but Sydney made it feel like such a fun and natural process for all of us. She is such a kind hearted, charismatic, funny, personable person to have around and really did bring such an added light to our big day. From our first inquiry to the delivery of our photos, she was so on top of communication, took the time to understand our vision and what we were looking for and just made the whole process so simple and easy!! We will forever cherish our wedding photos and always be so glad that we chose Sydney as our photographer!

We are a licensed and insured company dedicated to taking away stress and helping to make your wedding day all you wanted and more. We have had a passion for making wedding days as perfect as possible for nearly 22 years! I believe our number one responsibility is to take the stress away from not only the bride but for everyone in the wedding party as well. So many brides have relied on family or friends to make sure things go smoothly on the big day and then regret not having enough time with them due to handling all of the details of the day that were so meticulously planned.

Nikki was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Nikki's communication style was organized, responsive, and kind. She was detail-oriented, hardworking, and incredibly effective in executing our vision, while also making the planning process fun. Nikki was there for us every step of the way, from steaming our dresses in the early morning as we got ready, to seamlessly coordinating with all of our vendors. She is extremely well-connected in the Louisville area and has fantastic relationships with local vendors. We received countless compliments from our guests about how smooth and enjoyable our wedding day was, which is a true testament to Nikki's skills. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner - she is truly a gem to work with!

It was such a pleasure to have Rebecca as the photographer for our wedding. Her package offered a free engagement shoot and those pics turned out amazing! She was so easy to work with on the day of the wedding. She felt like a part of our friend group and got along with everyone so easily. She was great at directing everyone into poses and getting pics with everyone needed. The quality of the photos is amazing, and she even got a sneak peek back to us the night of the wedding before we even left the venue. We are going to cherish them forever! I highly recommend booking with her for your wedding!

There's nothing else like capturing the beginning of a love story. Now instead of filming with multiple cameras, tripods, crew, and support, we offer My Replay Kit. Filmed by Friends and Family. Just Hit Record! One of the key benefits of My Replay Kit is the personal nature of the experience. Instead of having an unfamiliar videographer following you around all day, your friends or family members—who know you and your guests best—are behind the camera. This leads to genuine, candid moments that capture the true essence of your event. This personalized approach results in a keepsake that feels much more intimate and authentic.

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend My Replay Kit to any couples looking for a talented and affordable wedding videographer. They were responsive, friendly, and experienced throughout the entire process. Their cameras were fun, easy to use, and very affordable. The guests enjoyed taking turns filming through the evening. The videos Chuck created captured all the best moments!
