Our Story
Smith Acres began as a family farm with more than a century of history. What was once a weathered tobacco barn has been thoughtfully restored into a modern wedding venue while preserving the character that makes it so special.
Today Smith Acres Venue is owned by Shelley McGuffey and Glenna Rasche - two women who share one vision: creating unforgettable wedding experiences where every couple feels welcomed, celebrated, and cared for from the moment they arrive.
Shelley works closely with couples on planning, styling, and bringing each wedding vision to life. Glenna focuses on continually improving the venue, enhancing the guest experience, and ensuring every detail reflects the quality couples deserve.
Together, we bring planning, creativity, and attention to every detail so you can relax, celebrate, and enjoy every moment of your wedding day.
Whether you’re exchanging vows beneath the Kentucky Sky, celebrating inside our beautifully restored modern barn, or enjoy a weekend at the farmhouse with family and friends, our goal is simple:
To give you the freedom to enjoy every moment while we take care of the details
The Best, for Our Best
