My daughter and her fiance (now husband) had their eye on Ashford Acres Inn from the second they became engaged. Once they brought me there, I could see why. I just could not imagine a more perfect spot for them to have gotten married. Everything from the very beginning was so seamless. I loved that they had regular vendors that they worked with which made me comfortable hiring them being that they were familiar with the venue and knew what we needed without me even having to say. I loved that the food came right from their kitchen and we didn't have to have food catered in or start looking for a caterer. Not to mention, the food was superb! I loved that this little town of Cynthiana had so many local vendors. We were able to get our flowers from Hal's Flowers (A+) and used JL Custom Sweets (A+) for all the deserts with the exception of apple cider donuts which we got from Stepping Stone Farm. I loved that we were able to have the Rehearsal dinner right there on the property. I loved that we were able to have rooms for the 3 sets of grandparents that attended and they did not have to leave all weekend. We also had a FABULOUS breakfast for all of our out of town guests the day after the wedding which Ashford Acres provided. Everything was truly above and beyond here. Kristina Drake was our wedding coordinator and she was amazing! Professional, prompt, helpful, had great ideas and a wonderful vision but all along geared it toward what the bride and groom were wanting. The entire weekend was problem free, from the Rehearsal dinner to the breakfast the morning after the wedding. Everything was taken care of immediately without hesitation or questions asked. On our drive home on Sunday my husband asked me what is one thing I would have done differently and after thinking for a minute, my answer was "nothing". That day, I got a text from my daughter saying "Chris and I both agree, that was the best day of our lives!" All that is honestly and truly thanks to Ashford Acres Inn and all the staff involved! We cannot thank you enough!

Ashford Acres and their staff were AMAZING! As the mother of the bride, I was able to completely relax and enjoy the wedding knowing that Jacqueline and the rest of the staff had everything under control. Jacqueline was very communicative during our 5 month planning process and my daughter and I felt completely assured that they "had it" every step of the way. Our daughter was also able to thoroughly enjoy her day worry- and anxiety-free. And her comment to me was that it was even more beautiful than she could've imagined!
From the time our weekend started with the rehearsal, to the getting ready process with so many moving parts and people asking her questions (I'm sure constantly), Jacqueline and the staff at AA were never flustered, but took everything in step. The meal was excellent and the staff were attentive and professional. Everything went off perfectly and we went to bed in beautiful rooms that night to awake to a delicious breakfast spread. Our guests felt very pampered and I cannot rave about this venue enough.
For the bride and family who want a beautiful venue, easy to communicate staff, professional and friendly coordinators, Ashford Acres is the place to go to.

Ashford acres is so much more than just a beautiful place. It’s a FEELING. As soon as you step on the property, there’s an overwhelming sense of southern charm and comfort. Largely in part to the amazing staff that makes you feel like family. But no actually our wedding planner, Jacqueline, knew our massive bridal party by name. That’s just how much they care about every single detail. We planned our entire wedding from out of state and they really eased our stress and made our vision come to life but did it BETTER. I was almost in tears all wedding day because of how amazed I was. The biggest reason we chose Ashford Acres was the fact that we were able to stay on property and spend all weekend with people closest to us. It has been a month since wedding day and we can’t stop talking about how there’s no other way we would have done it. We got to spend so much time with our family and bridal party. Between rehearsal, being there all wedding day, and having a bonfire both nights, a lot of our memories come from events outside of just the wedding, some of which we will cherish forever. It was truly a wedding WEEKEND, not just a day.
Whoever the chef is… YA’LL. We have had nonstop compliments about every single thing made that weekend. From rehearsal food, Wedding day breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and they even stocked every room with snacks (which of course the boys loved) My husband and I just keep reminiscing on how perfect everything was and how impressed we were. We are so so happy we chose Ashford Acres Inn and can’t wait to go back for future dates or anniversaries.
