AMY MITCHUM

Hi, I'm Amy Mitchum, the owner and manager of The Barn at Cedar Grove, a premier wedding venue in South Central Kentucky. I'm the one wearing all the hats behind the scenes! I'm married to my high school sweetheart, and we have two grown children, their wonderful spouses and eight grandchildren. My background in office management and bookkeeping for our family business has taught me many valuable lessons for which I'm truly grateful. There is simply no substitute for experience.

With a crafty nature, a love for pretty things and a hopelessly romantic heart, my entrepreneurial spirit found its purpose when God's divine plan came full circle. It all began when I became immersed in my daughter's vision to repurpose our old tobacco barn for her wedding reception. Once word spread about her beautiful wedding in our breathtaking setting, we had the encouragement we needed to move forward. Our venue continues to evolve with each passing year, and I'm thrilled to share this journey with you.

At The Barn at Cedar Grove, we are dedicated to ensuring that every couple and their guests have a wonderful and memorable wedding experience. I'm the first point of contact for inquiries and am delighted to give personal tours of our venue. From the inititial conversation to the final details of our event, I'm here to help make your experience at The Barn at Cedar Grove as seamless and enjoyable as possible. My goal is to ensure that your special day is truly unforgettable at out all-inclusive wedding venue.

In additional to managing The Barn at Cedar Grove, I also oversee and manage our Airbnb homes listed at garrisonfarmstead.com, offering a charming and comfortable stay for visitors to our beautiful region.
