Its rich history as a farming state mean that Kentucky has no shortage of small, rustic towns to elope in.

The “Bluegrass State” is scattered with old tobacco farms, horse pastures and, obviously, Bluegrass. This makes it perfect for a barn wedding, a lakeside elopement, or how about something really different and get married in a field while horses play and gallop around you? Imagine going for a horse ride after you’ve exchanged vows with your love, miles of deep green foliage stretching off into the distance, and surrounded by traditional plank fencing, whilst the sun sets across the rolling hills.

Kentucky sunsets offer the chance to view the sky ablaze with brilliant colors, painting the landscape with hues of orange, pink, and red. It’s a photographer’s, and a couple’s, dream wedding location.
