From the first time we visited The Vintage Barn at Merefield Farm, we were captivated. Missy showed us all around and we knew the reception just had to be there. We had hoped to have an August wedding, but when Covid made immigration issues take longer than normal with no end date in sight, Missy was kind and reassuring. She helped us pivot to a November wedding with an eye for all the details that also needed to pivot to help us have a successful reception. Missy & her staff made The Barn shine for us. Kind, thoughtful, & attentive to all the details that made for a successful evening! Our guests made so many positive comments about how cute The Barn was and what a great space it was to have a reception. Even though it was a chilly late November day, The Barn was warm & cozy and glowing! The Vintage Barn at Merefield Farm exceeded our expectations! Thank You Missy & all your Crew!!

It’s hard to find the words to describe how much of an honor and privilege it was to have our wedding reception at this wonderful venue. But I will try!



My now wife and I have had a rough engagement to say the least. Gracie (my wife) and I met whilst I was studying abroad at UK. I am originally from the UK (confusing, I know.) We got engaged the summer of 2020, with the plans to get married in August of 2021. We started looking into reception venues with the vision of partying in a barn after our wedding ceremony. That’s when we first came across this stunning venue and had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Missy. From the moment we met Missy we were instantly at ease, she is one of the most friendly, hard working and caring people you will ever meet. From our first conversation we knew we had found the perfect spot of our reception. We arrived unannounced to the barn where we found Missy working hard with her team to set up for a wedding that evening, even though she was busy, she took time out and showed us around every inch of the barn, which we were amazed at! It is located on a working horse farm in the middle of horse country, it is truly beautiful. If you are an animal lover, the barn is surrounded by horse pastures where you could make a new friend if you have a treat! After that meeting, we started the ball rolling at booking the barn for our August date! We were so excited!



Then, I left to go back to the UK. Unfortunately, due to COVID, increased wait times for US visas, and a year apart from my fiancé, August 2021 came and I was still in the UK, my visa hadn’t arrived. Telling Missy we had to cancel was heartbreaking for us as all Gracie and I wanted was to be married. We called expecting for Missy to tell us we had lost our deposit and there was nothing she could do, however we could’t have been further from the truth. Missy immediately told us that no matter what, she will make it her personal mission to make sure we have our perfect reception at the barn, no matter when we reschedule. She showed nothing but kindness and was so understanding! 



My visa FINALLY arrived at the end of August, which meant one thing, we had less than 3 months to plan and execute a wedding!! Understandably, every single one of our previous vendors were fully booked for our new date, so we had to (very stressfully) find and rebook all new people, except for one… The second we called Missy to explain we had our visa, she dropped everything she was doing to open up her calendar to squeeze us in the schedule for our new date. Gracie and I were so happy as we were really looking forward to using the barn. 



Those 3 months went by in a flash, I arrived in the US and Gracie and I got married!! The reception at the barn was nothing short of breathtaking. One of the first things people would say to us, after “congratulations” was how stunning the barn was. Every single detail was perfect. Missy really outdone herself and went above and beyond to make our evening perfect.



If you are looking for a place to get married, party the night away and really experience true southern charm, I couldn’t recommend The Vintage Barn at Merefield Farm strongly enough. You will not regret it! 


To Missy, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for everything you have done for us. It has been a pleasure getting to know you and experience your amazing venue. You are a huge part of making our wedding day so memorable!

God bless,



Ronnie and Gracie Withers

After getting married this year in May, I can honestly say that The Vintage Barn at Merefield Farm was the BEST option. If you’re a bride who is looking for a venue that cares about you and your wedding day, is affordable, and includes everything, look no further! Missy and her staff went above and beyond to make my wedding absolutely beautiful and ensure the day ran smoothly. The entire property has so much versatility and character throughout it. There are now two different wedding venues you can choose from, it is all surrounded by black plank fences with horses, and there is an array of decor and linens to choose from that can fit any type of bride you are! I highly recommend Missy and her staff to any bride who loves working with people who want to know you and want your dream wedding to come true!

My day couldn’t have gone as perfect as it did without Missy and the crew at The Vintage Barn. Not only is it the most beautiful venue in the state of Kentucky but the people make it that much better! Missy really takes the time to get to know the bride, groom and family on a personal level and does anything she can to make sure everything is perfect! I couldn’t recommend this venue enough!!

I can’t put into words how appreciative I am for Missy and her staff!! She has put my mind at ease in so many ways. My parents have been less stressed also! I can’t wait to say “I Do” at the Vintage Barn at Merefield Farm!! Thank you Missy for everything and making my day less stressful!! You are the best!!! 😘

Where do I even begin?! OUR WEDDING WAS PERFECT- I am still speechless two weeks later! Missy and her team went above and beyond for our special day, and made all of our dreams come true. She continued to go above and beyond throughout the entire process of touring the Vintage barn, booking the venue, visiting/meeting multiple times and for the entire wedding weekend. Missy and the staff were professional, helpful, responsive and just an overall blast to be around- they feel like family! Missy separates herself from the competition because of her attention to detail, true passion and genuine heart. The day was perfect. The venue was perfect. The staff were perfect. We are still receiving messages from our guests raving about the venue. Do yourself a favor and BOOK IT NOW! We love y’all!! -Shelby and Taylor

I am getting married in 1 week, and I am so excited and pleased with The Vintage Barn and their staff. Therefore, I wanted to go ahead and write this! I could not be happier with Missy (the owner) and her team. They have been such a help and so welcoming from the first time I visited the barn. Missy strives to help each bride and groom feel at-home and stress free, yet very professional. I could NOT imagine having my wedding anywhere else, or working with another team. They have taken care of SO MUCH, which has taken lots of stress off of me. The barn itself is BEAUTIFUL! The barn has SO much character itself and the surrounding land, horses, and black horse fence just top it off. I am so excited to be having the wedding I have been picturing/planning since I was a little girl at this venue. If you are even questioning booking or visiting this venue DO IT! I promise you will be glad you did!

Missy and her staff were AMAZING!! Missy was like family went above and beyond. It really was like a dream come true, and everything was perfect. Every last detail was perfectly organized the way we discussed and was beyond more. The venue is very affordable with everything that is included. I was stress free during my wedding because missy and her staff were incredible. All of our guests had a wonderful time and couldn’t praise the venue enough. It was so lovely to see it all come together so beautifully.
I think what makes The vintage barn at Merefield such an incredible place is how personal everything is. You can tell missy has put in everything she has into this venue. The venue is stunning and so incredibly peaceful! If you are looking for venue look no further, we truly experienced a fairy-tale wedding at The vintage barn at Merefield and so would you!
Best wishes, Marissa + Hunter ( The News) 💗

We recently got married at The Lily Barn here, there newest barn and it was perfection! I couldn’t of asked anything more of Missy and her team! They decorated exactly how I wanted & made our day run smooth and stress free! Highly recommend checking this venue out for your wedding day!!

We are actually getting married this month at the Lily Barn at Merefield. It is their new venue they just opened this year. I was very nervous in the beginning because the venue was not fully finished when I booked my wedding day, but it has turned out wonderful. The venue is so beautiful, and Missy (the owner) offers so much in the cost for the venue. Not only does she offer tables, chairs, and linens in the price, but she has so many beautiful decorations that make having your dream wedding possible on a limited budget. Missy has been there to answer any questions we may have, and goes above and beyond to help her clients have the most beautiful day.
