★★★★★ — Lesley, May 2023

My husband and I got married at Hawks Nest in June of 2021. We had a wonderful experience and were very happy with our venue choice. We would thoroughly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful, southern wedding. Ally was amazing to work with. She was timely, kind, and organized.

★★★★★ — Caitlin, Aug 2021

Our experience with Hawks Nest could not have been more perfect. Ally is a joy to work with and the venue is absolutely stunning. Several of our guests said it was the most beautiful barn venue they have been to and it's super easy to get to from Lexington.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Oct 2020

We had our wedding at Hawks Nest on June 26, 2021 and it was amazing! Ally was incredibly helpful when I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted. She made excellent suggestions and always had a recommendation available when asked. She even has put together a few resources to share with brides to help with planning!

Getting married at Hawks Nest Weddings & Events

Hawks Nest Weddings & Events comes up for weddings, going by their listing and couples’ reviews. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
