WEDDING SPOTLIGHTS

KELSIE + CLAYTON'S WINTER WONDERLAND

Kelsie + Clayton experienced the wedding of their dreams at Shepherd's Run in December of 2024. Their wedding was developed in partnership with Exquisite Events who curated a weekend unlike any other. From providing a home away from home for family in the Inn, to developing a restaurant style service in the Event Hall, the weekend was one to remember. Take a peak at the video below to see how we customize and craft events that are personal to you.
