Having our wedding at Terrapin was a smooth, surprisingly chill, gorgeous experience. I recommend it to everyone seeking an outdoor wedding facilitated by extremely experienced, knowledgeable, and laid-back venue owners. - Bri, Lexington KY
My daughter had a very specific vision in mind for her wedding and Terrapin Hill made that vision come to life beautifully! What a great day! - Beth, mother of bride
Ceremony sites:
The Chapel
This beautiful structure was built by Pete from cedar trees harvested nearby. Its rugged and majestic beauty provides a uniquely breathtaking setting for your ceremony and the surrounding trees create a beautiful decor only nature can provide. If you want a ceremony site everyone will remember, this is the spot for you.

The Top of the Knob
The hill behind the farmhouse has an amazing view of the countryside in every direction. Just a short walk up from the pavilion, it's also accessible by vehicle. You'll feel like you're on top of the world when you say your I-do's here!
The Roundhouse |
|
Our newest structure on the farm is the Roundhouse, an 8-sided gazebo tucked away in a small grassy opening that overlooks the pond. In the center of the building is a fire pit, and an opening in the roof above it lets the smoke escape. The fire pit can also be covered with a board that fits in the opening, if you'd rather have a smooth floor.
This is a very private space and can be used for your "first look", for private vows just between the two of you, or for photographs. It's also a great space for smaller ceremonies like elopements or micro-weddings - there's space to seat about 32 guests.

Other Ceremony Locations
It's your choice where you have your ceremony, and there are so many locations to choose from... in the woods or a field, near a pond or a playground... our venue has so many beautiful sites it's hard to choose just one - but you can take photos anywhere!

Reception site:
The Pavilion
The 40'x60' pavilion can hold 175 people with room for dancing. The twinkly lights, and chandelier provide the ambiance, just add the decor you like to make it your style. Curtains with clear panels keep out the wind and rain, if needed. Restrooms, parking, and bonfire are close by. Want a rustic, country setting but not in a barn? We've got it.
