  • A Dream Come True!!

    This venue was everything I dreamed of! It held our small, intimate winter wedding with plenty of room. Everyone loved exploring the three floors and my kids loved playing hide and seek throughout. Pictures were absolutely wonderful and Bill was the BEST host. His communication was spot on and he made everything seem so smooth instead of stressful like a normal wedding would be. I felt at home and it was warm and welcoming. This venue is definitely a treasure find in Shelbyville and it doesn't break the bank. I WILL be coming back for future endeavors. Thank you, Bill for my dream come true!

    The team at Charles Davis Mansion was fantastic to work with from start to finish. Their communication was great - they were responsive, flexible, and really helped make our wedding day stress-free. The venue itself was perfect, with a beautiful historic setting that was both elegant and affordable. They gave us the freedom to decorate how we wanted and coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors. Bill, the owner, was a pleasure to work with and made sure I wasn't worrying about any of the details on the big day. I would highly recommend Charles Davis Mansion to any couple looking for a gorgeous, well-run wedding venue.

    Bill is meant to do what he does. His attention to detail is noticeable. Working with us every step of the way while being long distance too. Beautiful mansion, lovely grounds and just the right spooky twist we loved.
