Past the black barn, under old trees, along a mile of four-board fence…

…until the manor comes into view.

Welcome home

Eighty acres of bluegrass.

A manor built in 1840.

One extraordinary day.

The GlenLary Estate is a working horse farm in the heart of Kentucky horse country, twenty minutes from Lexington and a world away from everything else. Marry before the columns of the Lary Manor, dine in the black barn, dance under sailcloth and stars, and wake the next morning to horses grazing outside your window.

GlenLary Estate is a dream. The opening scene is set as you drive to the property and arrive at the front gate, and it gets better with each moment. You feel tucked away from everything else that is happening in the world and cocooned with the people you adore.

GlenLary is no set piece. It is a working horse farm, and the residents like to make an appearance. Couples plan around a thousand details; the horses are the one nobody forgets.
