Things to Do

Keeneland Horse Racing

Lexington, KY is often considered to be the Horse Capital of the World & Kristen was born in Elizabethtown on a Kentucky Derby day. The derby is held at Churchill Downs, but Keeneland is her favorite horse racing venue. Races are on Friday (Bridal Party joining) and Saturday (Bridal Party will be taking photos during this time, but we still encourage you to head to the races!)
