Engagement photos at Arcadia? We love to see it! 🤍

With the historic charm of Shelby Manor and the beautiful Kentucky countryside surrounding it, there are so many gorgeous spots around the property for engagement photos, wedding portraits, and everything in between.

One of the things we love most about Historic Arcadia Farm is how many different ways people can enjoy the property. You can get married here, spend a weekend at the Manor, gather for a special event, or simply come enjoy a little time in the Kentucky countryside.

We love welcoming couples for their wedding day, but it's just as special to see them enjoying the farm during other chapters of their lives.

Whether you're planning engagement photos, looking for a Central Kentucky wedding venue, or hoping to plan a weekend getaway, we'd love to welcome you to Arcadia.

Your wedding venue has a bigger impact on your photos than you might think.

When you're touring wedding venues, think about all the places you'll want photos throughout the day. Where will you get ready? Is there a beautiful spot for your first look? What about family portraits after the ceremony or those sunset photos you've been saving on Pinterest?

At Historic Arcadia Farm, we're fortunate to have so much variety right here on the property. From the historic architecture of Shelby Manor to the open fields, mature trees, and beautiful views of the Kentucky countryside, there are so many places for your photographer to capture different parts of your wedding day.

Having all these options in one place makes a difference in your wedding timeline, too. You can move between photo locations without spending valuable time traveling, leaving you with more time to enjoy the celebration with your guests.

If you're searching for a Central Kentucky wedding venue with timeless charm and plenty of beautiful backdrops for your wedding photos, we'd love to show you around Historic Arcadia Farm.

There’s a lot to love about a wedding at Historic Arcadia Farm, and we’d love to show you around.

Located in Stanford, Kentucky, our historic wedding venue offers so many beautiful ways to celebrate. You can spend the morning getting ready inside Historic Shelby Manor, exchange vows surrounded by the Kentucky countryside, take portraits throughout the property, and celebrate with dinner and dancing in our climate-controlled Pavilion.

For couples who love an outdoor celebration, the grounds also offer beautiful spaces for tented weddings, giving you the flexibility to create a setting that feels like your own.

One of our favorite things about hosting weddings here is seeing how couples use the property throughout their entire wedding weekend. With overnight accommodations, multiple ceremony and reception options, and an experienced team that can help with everything from coordination to catering and florals, so much of your celebration can happen right here.

Did you know that our team at Historic Arcadia Farm can bring the celebration to you? 🍾

While we love hosting weddings and events here on the farm, our full-service offerings extend beyond the property! From catering and custom florals to helping bring all the details together, our team can help make your event just as beautiful wherever you’re celebrating.

We recently had the pleasure of bringing a little bit of Arcadia to this off-site event, and we loved seeing everything come together!

Whether you’re planning a wedding, rehearsal dinner, corporate gathering, or special celebration in Central Kentucky, we’d love to chat about how our catering and floral services can be part of it.

Interested in working with our team for an upcoming event? Send us a message or email us at [email protected] to learn more. 🍽️
