Silent Grove 

5.0

Brownsville, KY
  • Venue
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,100

Newly built venue in 2024… family owned and operated. Country setting but elegantly designed. We can seat up to 200 capacity. We installed black elegant glass doors to open during beautiful weather. Enjoy the nature scenery around you during your time with us.

Cassie and Danny Dennis at Silent Grove were an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication was always prompt, helpful and friendly, which made planning our wedding day a breeze. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful - very spacious, warm and intimate. They went out of their way to ensure everything was neat and taken care of, even drying the benches outside when it rained that morning. They also offered assistance for my mother, who was in a wheelchair, to easily access the outdoor area. I would highly recommend Silent Grove to any couple looking for a wonderful wedding venue with an attentive and accommodating staff. We had such a special day and would definitely use their venue again.

Grace E Films 

5.0

  • Videographer
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Summer Shade, KY

One thing to know about me is that I truly am passionate about what I do, and I think that shows in my work. I love getting to know everyone's story and want to gift my couples with a film that truly captures their love. I have been filming weddings for 3 years but I knew I had a passion for filming long before I started this journey. I got my first camera in high school and used any excuse to film my friends or the places I traveled! It wasn't until my second year in college that I really started to pursue video as a career. I bought a few pieces of gear, and filmed my first wedding in April 2021!

Booked Grace last minute for our entire wedding weekend and it was the best decision ever. Grace traveled to our Colorado destination wedding and captured everything from Thursday- Saturday so perfectly, both on video and super 8 film; the results she delivered were absolutely gorgeous and reflective of her true artistic talent and unique style; I had countless people reach out to me for her contact information because they were stunned with how amazing the video and film content was. Aside from that, Grace was an absolute treat to work with, just the sweetest and kindest girl, super communicative, and worked very well with my photographer and other vendors. Can’t recommend her highly enough, and I am so thankful we found her and can now remember our weekend forever thanks to her talent.

Shelley + Portugal 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Summer Shade, KY

Hey! We're Shelley + Portugal. We met on Instagram and fell in love over FaceTime. A shared interest in roadkill portraiture is what brought us together (it’s a funny story), but what compelled us to exchange numbers and talk every day for 3 months was the fact that we were both seeking the same things out of life. Nothing about our story is conventional (and it goes against every warning from our parents against Internet stranger danger) but despite the “what-ifs” and the long-distance logistics, we said yes. And in saying yes to something we couldn’t fully comprehend, we were unknowingly saying "yes" to a life full of adventure together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Shelley & Portugal as our photographers was the best (and easiest) decision we made in planning our wedding. First, they are both extremely talented. We fell in love with their portfolio when we were looking for possible wedding vendors and knew their style of photography and approach would mesh well with our wedding aesthetic. After seeing the photos, that was an understatement. They captured our wedding day so perfectly just just in the moments they captured but the actual feeling behind the pictures themselves. When looking for wedding photographers, we also wanted to make sure we were working with people who we felt comfortable with on a personal level, particularly since my husband and I *hate* being in front of a camera. Shelley & Portugal are such wonderful people; we loved getting to hang out with them on our wedding day and during our engagement photoshoot. We were able to be ourselves in front of them. Finally, it's worth noting how professional and "on top of things" Shelley & Portugal are. I never felt like I was in the dark at any point in our planning process. Honestly, Shelley helped me stay on track and helped me think about things related to our wedding that weren't at all on my radar. I also couldn't believe how quickly they were able to get us a sneak peak of our wedding photos (Monday, we got married on Saturday)! Shelley & Portugal also did our wedding album and wedding video which they did a beautiful job with as well. I know we'll be looking back on these two keepsakes for years and will be just as grateful for the work Shelley & Portugal put in to capturing our day as we are today.

Ashton Dawn Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Summer Shade, KY

Every day I get to meet new and unique people who allow me to join them & to capture the most intimate and emotional moments of their lives. I seek couples who have wandering hearts and adventuring souls, Catching that closeness between two people completely in love. The way your hands fit together, the laughter, the way you hold on to each other.. That kind of chemistry, that’s what makes my job so much better, I get to be the one witnesses it, and saves it. I’ll shoot that kind of love all day and twice on a Sunday.

We booked Ashton and another photographer for our wedding and couldn’t be more in love with the photos we came back with! We were picky about what types of photos we wanted—rather than getting a generic shot list because we wanted it to be more about us as the couple, and Ashton was amazing at focusing on the photos we wanted! I still walk by our photos in the house and feel like I can relive the memory of our wedding and am so thankful that we chose her to capture our perfect day! We’ve continued to book her beyond the wedding too! She’s amazing! And we’re so grateful to have had her be a part of our memories!

I'm Reid Wilkinson. Girl dad to two beautiful girls, Abigale and Carly, with my gorgeous wife Stephanie. I was born and raised in Bowling Green, KY. I attended Nossi College of Art in Nashville, TN where I received my associate's degree in graphic design. I've always had a natural love for the arts, whether it be design, photography, or music. I even played drums in several local bands over the years.

Reid is absolutely amazing. I don’t like my picture to be taken but Reid made me feel so comfortable. He truly makes it a fun and light process for his clients. His style of photography is what really drew me to him, he is very creative, he thinks outside the box, he has a very unique style and all of it shows in his pictures! He went ABOVE AND BEYOND at my wedding! He helped with things that I don’t feel like any other photographer would have helped with. He truly is such an amazing person and photographer! He will be our photographer for every moment we want to capture!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.8

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Summer Shade, KY

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Our flowers turned out AMAZING with flower moxie! It was so fun to be able to spend the days before prepping the flowers with my family and friends, and they truly turned out so beautifully.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lacie captured moments that took my breath away. Her style and skill is every bride’s dream. She delivers everything you adore from those Pinterest and Instagram wedding photos. So there is no question she can deliver what she is looking for. And we are beyond thrilled with all of our photos. The sneak peeks are also so much fun (she sends a batch of photos shortly after she shoots you). But where Lacie shines and what I have to tell you about is everything else. She truly went above and beyond. She’s not just a photographer, she’ll be one of your favorite people on your special day. Yes, Lacie is kind and friendly and comforting and just the kind of person you need on your wedding day (and who you wished you roomed with in college). But she is so much more. Here are just some of the few meaningful things Lacie did that I noticed that I’ll forever carry with me. Firstly, I had a very important rosary I wanted to photograph, and with the chaos, I had forgotten. It would have broken my heart if I left it behind. Lacie remembered. I got fixated on an insignificant hiccup on my wedding day that could have ruined my day. Lacie redirected my attention to the things that really mattered and brightened up my mood immediately. Leading up to the wedding, Lacie advocated for me and my husband ensuring us she was fully dedicated to only us on the day, literally saying “You and Sean are my priority.” Nobody and nothing would take her attention away from us. She was always quick to respond to texts, I could go to her for quick wedding advice, and she’s genuinely so passionate about her craft. Lacie could really be a wedding planner with how much she knows. Other vendors loved working with her, especially our videographers. She was so quick, efficient, and took initiative. She gave them space and skillfully took turns capturing moments with them. With a big wedding party and spacious venue, we kept losing track of people for pictures, Lacie corralled them masterfully. She’s not afraid to get people to focus and get the photos done, but also in the most polite and respectful way. I watched videos of brides saying I wish this or that moment was captured. Sometimes I’d forget whether I had those moments captured myself. Then I go to Lacie’s photos and every single thing that brides mentioned got missed by their photographer she captured for me. Her vibe! She’s so positive and cheery. I was so nervous and also worried about how dark my church was. She got me excited about it after turning it into a positive saying it would look like the theater and she could absolutely work with it. I texted her a shoot list the night before our wedding. She carried that around and took it so seriously making sure she captured everything I listed. I made a Pinterest board of photos I liked and she remembered ones I forgot I included in there. She was my favorite vendor (tied with my incredible florist @dazyflorals) and the vendor I had no worries about it. I didn’t have to check in with her. I could trust her with my eyes closed. She’d be where she needed to be on time, professional, and prepared. I’m going to miss her. Sign her and soak up her sunshine for me, will ya?

Jen was AMAZING to work with! When it came to flowers for my wedding, I had NO IDEA what I wanted. She was very patient with me and helped talk me through my vision. She gave me flowers to pick from, talked about how big I wanted my bouquet and how much greenery I wanted, and then when I could find colors I liked in swatches, she color-matched the colors I wanted from an inspo pic I found online! She was very professional and patient with me, even when my plans changed or I needed to add to my order.  I am not the best at putting together a bouquet. I am also someone who likes control, especially when it came to planning my wedding. I was thankful that I was able to give Jen the reins, tell her what I wanted, and watch her make my dreams come true. When I first saw my flowers, I was speechless. She truly did make my floral dreams come true, and now I get to keep my bouquet for the rest of my life! A wooden flower bouquet from Jen is the way to go!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Since 2013, I’ve been capturing love stories in a way that’s timeless, authentic, and uniquely yours. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a big celebration, my approach blends classic elegance with photojournalistic storytelling. More than photography, it's about building trust and celebrating love in all its beautiful forms—honoring every culture, story, and connection.

On the day of the wedding and through the prep leading up to the big day, her fun and friendly personality shone through. She was organized, calm, and seamlessly blended into the background while still guiding us through various moments. The quality of her work is truly outstanding; every photo is beautifully composed and tells a story. She has an incredible eye for detail, capturing not just the big moments but also the little, candid interactions that made our day unique. We are absolutely thrilled with the final images and grateful for the memories she helped preserve. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but genuinely cares about her clients, Sam at Golden Hour Images is the perfect choice.

She traveled from Dayton, three hours each way, for the rehearsal and for the wedding !! Sam and her team helped box all the centerpieces and miscellaneous items while we were still enjoying the evening. This was a huge help and I was very thankful for the extra time that was freed up for us to spend with family and friends. There was a small hiccup with our food caterer and Sam quickly jumped in and solved the problem. I could not have asked for a more perfect day for my daughter, it was everything she dreamed of and we were all stress free thanks to Sam. I would HIGHLY recommend The Black Barn Event Planning. Sam is amazing at what she does!!

Persephone

  • Serves Summer Shade, KY

Hi! My name is Jennifer, and I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA, where I began my floral journey at a boutique flower shop in the valley. In 2017, I moved to San Diego, CA, and then to Louisville, KY, in 2021. I have been in the floral industry for about 9 years. I started my business in 2019 as jchristine designs and recently did a rebrand where Persephone was born.

Picking my wedding florist was the easiest decision because I made it before we even got engaged. I’d seen Jen’s florals on social media and knew they were exactly what I wanted! Unique, stunning, and creative with different types of elements- not just florals. Jen was amazing through the entire process, listened to what I wanted but was knowledgeable enough to help guide me through the unknowns or what might be the best option for my vision. Beyond flawlessly executing my dream wedding flowers, you will NOT find someone who pours more of her heart and soul into ensuring she’s prepped for your big day. I put every ounce of trust in her and she did not disappoint. Book her, you’ll be grateful you did!!

He took so many amazing photos and sent them to us within a month! He sent so many that I'm still going through all the ones he took. I would highly recommend Kyle for any event!
