I don’t even know where to begin. Before the wedding day, Grace, Klara, and Tina went above and beyond on every single detail to make this day truly special. They were there every step of the way and responded so quickly. I know they were working with so many other weddings, but made me feel special like I was the only wedding they were focusing on. I knew the wedding day was going to be beautiful through the planning process but I couldn’t imagine it being as beautiful as it was. From the morning of getting ready, to riding away at night I was in awe the entire time. I felt like the luckiest girl/bride in the world getting married there and having the support from all the staff and support.

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

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!

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. In 1906, Otto Doerr was hired as our first brew master and our beer soon began appearing in local taverns. 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.

Springfield, KY
  • Up to 400 guests

  • Starts at $1,400

Built in 1842, historic Simmstown Manor has a rich story. Originally constructed by Harvey McElroy for his daughter Mariah, the home later passed to John Simms after the Civil War. Unlike many, Simms preserved his wealth through the war and acquired the mansion and its surrounding land, eventually owning 2,400 acres. The Simms family added a two-story north wing and moved in by 1868, hosting grand gatherings for the region’s most prominent families. When John’s wife, Sarah Cecilia, died in 1895, he divided his land among their five children, giving Simmstown to his youngest, Mary, with whom he lived until his death. The property remained in the family until 1983, when it was sold to the current owner, Larry Hodge. Both the house and grounds later underwent extensive renovation, preserving as much historic character as possible.

Simmstown Manor was the perfect place for a recent family reunion. I can’t imagine a more beautiful place to spend time with extended family. The house is immaculate and the pride of ownership was obvious. The property is extremely private and everyone enjoyed taking walks around the extensive grounds and seeing the horses. The bedrooms were large and furnished elegantly and we had plenty of space for everyone, teenagers included. The owner was very responsive and met us on site to orient us with the home. The kitchen and dining areas were well equipped and had ample seating for our large party. This is a special place and we certainly hope to visit again.

When we were choosing our wedding venue, we weren't sure we would ever find something that fit our vision. We wanted something intimate, laid back, with a ceremony focused on love. Up until we found Brenda and Pete, we thought that we would have to settle for a venue that felt disingenuous to us, with a ceremony that didn't reflect our values. When we discovered Terrapin Hill through a Google search, we knew we had to reach out. Scheduling a tour with Brenda was so easy, and she made us feel so at-ease with our decision. Once paperwork was complete, Brenda and Pete made the planning process SO easy, and we couldn't have been more grateful to them for all their guidance and help leading up to the day of. While communicating with Brenda, she even agreed to let both my mother and my mother-in-law into the venue half an hour early to set up decorations. We were married on May 15, 2025 at the Chapel, surrounded by our closest family and friends. Pete assisted us from the start to the end of the day, and was always nearby just in case. We were pleasantly surprised when Pete pulled up in his classic car and offered for it to be part of our ceremony, too! He drove my father and I up to our ceremony location, and then drove myself, my husband, and our photographer to our private vow location afterwards. Everything was absolutely stunning, and he helped the day run extra smoothly! We chose Terrapin Hill Farm based on the beauty of their location, the core values they reflect, their ceremony style, and the different packages they offer. Their excellent customer service and communication is just the cherry on top! We are so thankful to both Pete and Brenda for sharing their space with us, making us feel at-home, and giving us the perfect day to celebrate our love. We recommend Terrapin Hill Farm to any couples who are searching for their dream venue!

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!

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.

  • Dressing room available

We would highly recommend My Old Kentucky Barn for your special day.

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.

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.

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.

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!
