The garden at Ray Eden was my daughters venue for her wedding on June 24 23. It is an amazing, gorgeous venue. The landscape is immaculate and lots of shade for an outside wedding. Mark is amazing to work with . It has all 5’s from this mother of the bride

Yesterday, I helped decorate and also attended a wedding with about 120 guests at this venue. Everything about the wedding was joyful, fun, and beautiful--except this venue. Overall, the vendors and I did not have a great experience during set up. Some staff were helpful. Some were unfriendly and unwilling to make small changes in order to achieve the bride's vision, going so far as to snap at the photographer that their decor should not be removed or moved. So, I guess you should only book this venue if you love every single piece of artwork in the building when you tour. While I understand the owner's position of wanting to preserve and protect the building, I do think they take it too far. If you know you will be hosting weddings, leave the walls mostly bare so the bride and groom can choose exactly how they want their wedding day to look. This venue is also small and definitely not able to accommodate more than 60-70 people. Do not believe them when they tell you otherwise. Guests were basically sitting in each others laps for the ceremony and trying to navigate through the tables to take a seat for the dinner was near impossible, with a large portion of the tables in the closed upstairs, unable to interact with the bride and groom or other guests. Downstairs, tables were no more than 2 feet away from each other in most places. If you have any guests in wheelchairs, they will have a very difficult time moving around the building. On top of being uncomfortable, I'd also posit that using the upstairs for anything other than a getting ready suite for the bride is borderline unsafe. This building is historical and there is a stair at the top, separated from the rest of the staircase, that is easily missed. I nearly fell down the whole staircase during set up because it is not marked with a sign or high visibility tape. I am not a clumsy person by nature and was able to catch myself but someone is eventually going to get hurt there. As an Oldham county native and business owner myself, I hate writing a negative review of a local small business but I feel that bride's and their families should be informed before spending thousands. The venue and location are gorgeous, there is no doubt about that. But I'd think twice before attending another wedding at this venue. It is more appropriate for grad parties, small corporate events, luncheons, bridal/baby showers, intimate elopements, or birthday parties.

I photographer Brett + Sarah's wedding here in 2022 and WOW what a beautiful venue with amazing scenery. I couldn't stop finding hidden gems around the whole property to take photos. Even the bridal suite had beautiful lighting. I highly recommend it as a wedding venue. Don't forget to take sunset photos out in the field behind the ceremony site.
