Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I hired Julia for our wedding in 2022, and we couldn't recommend her enough! She was communicative throughout the entire planning process and was exactly where she needed to be on the day without taking away unnecessary time and attention, letting us experience our special day to the fullest. Her experience shows in both the quality of her work and the support she provides on the day. She checked in with us and showed us photos after scheduled shoots, and even guided us to an isolated spot for an intimate moment together after she noticed we could use a breather before getting back to the festivities. Our photos arrived promptly and perfectly encapsulated our day. Every photo was stunning and not a single moment was missed. Julia was, without a doubt, the best hiring decision we made for our wedding - we couldn't recommend her enough!

  • Provides event staff

  • Exudes old-world charm

Venue considerations

  • On-site parking not available
  • Not wheelchair accessible
The first thing we knew we wanted out of a venue was a small size - we didn't want more than 60 people in attendance. We picked this location initially with the guest count being are only criteria, but we were almost immediately surprised by so much more. The view, the gorgeous interiors, and the rich history were all things that finally led us to choose this as our venue for our wedding. But, above all else, was the venue owner - Roger Swonger. He went above and beyond to make our day as special as it possibly could be, and with his help, our wedding day went absolutely perfect. With just one planning session, and a couple of tours, Roger was able to guide us through the perfect day. He communicated well with all of the vendors, was able to provide an amazing wait staff, and bartender, and even thought of the small details - placing some flowers on our small wedding cake, putting a pen by the guest book, etc. Most importantly to us, as a now husband and husband duo, was finding a venue that was accepting. This was Roger to a tee - not only did he treat us with kindness, he guided us towards other LGBTQ friendly vendors as well. With his support and guidance, we had a wedding that completely surpassed our exceptions of what a wedding could ever look like in an area like Kentucky. I don't think there is any universe where we could have had a better wedding, and this is all thanks to Roger, and all thanks to having our wedding ceremony at Wiedemann Hill Mansion.

Recently restored with over $1.4 million in updates, the mansion blends historic charm with modern luxury, featuring soaring ceilings, intricate woodwork, a gourmet kitchen, and designer bathrooms.

We hosted our wedding at the Taylor Mansion in Newport, KY, and stayed there with 11 guests over three nights—it was truly the perfect venue and home for such a special occasion. The mansion itself is a stunning historic property built in 1837, and staying there felt like stepping into a piece of history. Yet, it’s fully updated with modern amenities that made our stay incredibly comfortable. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped, ideal for cooking for a large group, and the generous counter space made buffet-style meals easy to serve. The living areas are cozy and inviting, and the bathrooms are absolutely luxurious—especially the main bedroom’s shower with its multiple jets, which felt like a spa experience. There was plenty of room for all our guests to spread out and relax, and the Taylor Mansion team was incredibly responsive and helpful. When we had a minor issue with the disposal, they had someone out the next morning to fix it—no stress at all. As a wedding venue, the Taylor Mansion exceeded every expectation. Their team handled all the setup, including table layout and chair selection, and even brought in a cleaner before the event to ensure everything was perfect. They were available throughout the day for any questions or last-minute needs, which gave us peace of mind to truly enjoy the celebration. We held our ceremony on the first-floor balcony, which offered beautiful views and a romantic atmosphere. The old office was transformed into our dance floor, and the built-in sound system made it easy to play our Spotify playlist for the ceremony, dinner, and dancing. One of the standout features was the vintage wooden bar with a brass foot rail—it added so much character to the reception space. We chose Kate Catering, one of their preferred vendors, and the food was absolutely phenomenal. Their staff was professional, friendly, and helped elevate the entire experience. Whether you're looking for a unique and elegant wedding venue or a place to host a memorable group stay, Taylor Mansion is a true gem. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music and energy were.

One of the highlights of the night was his unique ‘4 Levels of Hype’—each level brought a whole new wave of energy and excitement that took our celebration to the next level. To top it all off, Kevin gave me (the groom) a moment I’ll never forget. He handed over the DJ equipment and let me play a couple of songs! Seeing all my friends pull out their phones and cheer me on was incredible—I felt like a celebrity in my own wedding! The quality of his service was impeccable, and we couldn’t be happier. Several of our friends are already talking about booking him for their own events! We can’t thank Kevin enough for making our wedding so unforgettable.

Doug and Andrew made the best team at our wedding! We met Doug at a bridal show a year and a half before our wedding and liked him immediately. He really wants to help you create a wedding that is special and meaningful to you - not a cookie-cutter wedding with package after package he's trying to upsell you on. We were delighted when Doug told us that his partner, Andrew, was moving back to the area and would be working with him at our wedding. Doug talked with us several times throughout our planning process to help us think through the reception - specifically the flow and the feeling of each moment. At our final detail meeting, Doug and Andrew helped us finalize and ramp up some ideas we had been working on (rating speeches using giant numbers that the bridal party held up, us-themed bar trivia during dinner, kiss cam instead of traditional glass-clinking kisses) and also gave us options to add on his Freedom Sticks (party lighting to help make the room/dance floor fun) and several Polaroid cameras and a book to store the pictures in. We took advantage of both and were so happy we did! On the day of the event, Doug took the role of MC and walking around the room to get pictures of people/get everyone involved and Andrew took on the role of primary DJ. Together, they were such a fun team that really brought the party to life! We had SO MANY compliments on how fun they were and I have recommended them to all of my friends with upcoming weddings!! They perfectly matched our vibe to the music and worked hard to make sure that everyone had a great time. If you're looking for a DJ that cares about you as a couple and can bring the party, look no further!

I'm Libby, and my flower farm is tucked away in the (sometimes) sunny fields of Ohio. Mornings start with coffee and a moment with Jesus, while the kids and bees are already working hard. I'm hooked on both flowers and farming, and watching them grow side-by-side is pure magic. I love designing bouquets that burst with color and life, just like the blooms I nurture every season. When you choose my flowers, you're not just decorating, you're getting a slice of our joyful, messy farm life, infused with sunshine, strong coffee, and a whole lotta love.

Libby did such a fantastic job on the day of our wedding! She absolutely nailed what our vision was! The entire process going back and forth to figure out what we wanted from the very start was perfect. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Can't recommend Maple Leaf Barn enough!

I can’t rave enough about DJ Scott. He was a dream to work with!! Everything was so perfect he made sure the timing of the songs in our ceremony were right on time. He checked in with us all night at the reception to make sure we were having fun and still liked the music. He made our toddlers night playing all of his favorite music and making him feel very important!! Our son makes us pretend to be the dj and flash the living room lights so he can pretend to be on the dance floor still, DJ Scott definitely made a lasting impression with him (and us)! He made sure my husband and I had drinks all night and just made the best environment!! He set up outside at the end of the night for our private last dance and helped create a romantic and relaxing ending to the night. I seriously can’t speak any more highly of him and the experience he helped create for us!!

I’m Kelsi, a bridal makeup artist with a passion for helping clients feel like the most confident version of themselves. What started as casually helping a friend with weddings in 2020 quickly turned into my dream career. With a background in Communications and Marketing from Ohio State, I left the corporate world to follow my heart—and haven’t looked back since. I believe being “pretty” is a mindset, not a look. My goal is to enhance your natural beauty so you feel radiant, empowered, and authentically you on your big day. Let’s create your dream bridal look, together!

Kelsi from Face by Kelsi was an incredible makeup artist for my wedding day! From the moment we first connected, her communication was clear, empathetic and collaborative. She listened closely to my makeup wishes and helped guide me through any pre-wedding jitters. On the big day, Kelsi's work was truly flawless - the makeup application was clean and long-lasting, showing up beautifully in all our photos. Kelsi also did a wonderful job with my bridesmaids, tailoring the makeup for each person's skin and preferences. Her expertise in skincare prep ensured we all felt our absolute best. I couldn't have asked for a better beauty experience, and I highly recommend Face by Kelsi to any couple planning their wedding!
