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.

We would highly recommend My Old Kentucky Barn for your special 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!

Drees Pavilion 

5.0

Covington, KY
  • Up to 297 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Open house

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.

  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Classic elegance
  • Handles all cleanup logistics

Venue considerations

  • 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!

We were married at Hotel Covington in September 2024 and it was hands down one of the best decisions we have ever made. We knew we wanted a fully outdoor wedding with food and drink provided on-site, and HC provided exactly that. 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 : )

We loved The Spot! We had our wedding reception there in August. We has 185 guests attend, and the space was perfect size for it! The dance floor is huge, and you can have up to two bars including one big one! The location is perfect - we had out of town guests stay in hotels one block away and a lot of people walked to The Banks bars after the reception! Another great aspect is they let you bring in your own catering/alcohol, which gives a lot of flexibility (and isn’t as hard as you’d think to coordinate).

Mojave East was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding!!! From the moment we first reached out, their communication was kind, open, quick, complete, and sincere - they made us feel so welcomed and supported throughout the entire process.

This venue is absolutely gorgeous, and I am still getting complements on the venue and the food provided by the venue to this day. They really went above and beyond to make my day special and handled every issue that came up without bothering me with it. It was raining the day of and they made the decision to move the ceremony from the outside ceremony site to under their tent, which I was a little upset about (obviously the weather is no one’s fault, it was just unfortunate timing) and about 30 minutes before the ceremony it had stopped raining and the venue and their team moved the whole ceremony back outside! They moved all of my decorations and had everything set up beautifully before we started. The staff were also amazing and super helpful and attentive all throughout the night. They really include a lot in their packages and I couldn’t have asked for more from them. Jeremy did our ceremony and it was beautiful and really heartfelt. I won’t be having a wedding any time soon (haha) but I would highly recommend this venue to anyone who wants to have a smooth, beautiful wedding.
