My Old Kentucky Barn
Charm and Comfort for a Picturesque Occasion
John was easily the best vendor we worked with throughout our entire wedding planning process for several reasons:
1. Whenever we had questions or needed anything, he would respond almost immediately. This was even when he was out of the country.
2. When the outdoor pews were not holding up, he provided chairs as a replacement at no cost to us.
3. He let us come in the night before our wedding to set up and notified us when we forgot something and held onto it until we were able to pick it up.
The venue was also not only our favorite of the three we looked at, it was the best priced as well. Overall, could not have had a better experience.
LOVE IT! It worked great for what we had and it was very pretty! The open area in the back makes for great field photos without having to walk off the property. We got lots of compliments on it. There are outdoor couches that our guests loved and lots of space outside for people to play games or just hangout. The owners are very nice and accommodating. There are multiple fridges and barrel coolers that worked great for drinks and flowers. There were also lots of tables to use. The suites are so nice and everyone seemed to be impressed with them.

Situated on over 50 acres, this rustic setting offers stunning and peaceful surroundings for couples to celebrate their love.

My Old Kentucky Barn, originally built in the 1800s, has a history spanning over 180 years. John Sebree is the current and only the fourth owner of the property. He is particularly interested in the setting's history and is excited to help others enjoy the barn just as much as he does. He is confident that couples and their loved ones will be able to create lasting memories on the property. Beyond weddings, the barn makes a great setting for birthday parties, family gatherings, and other celebrations.
