We're taping our first TV segment tomorrow! Pretty exciting! Jeff has never been on TV before so it should be interesting. We will post information on the air date as soon as we get it. If you're in Louisville and have nothing to do from about noon to 2 stop by. The Bourbon Lounge is taped in front of a live audience. Reply or email us if you want more details!
We are participating in our first Bridal Show at the historic Louisville Palace on Friday, January 11, 2013! If you haven't ever been inside the Palace you will be in awe!! It's gorgeous and such a fun place for a bridal event. This show is not the typical show either. The tag line on the website says, "This is not your mother's wedding show...it's YOUR wedding show!" There is going to be a "groom's" section at the show too. Can't wait!!
Please stop by to see us and some of the new things we've got just for brides (and grooms)!

We just sent 20 barrels to a distillery in Sweden! Thank you Tommy! We are starting to get inquiries from all over the world! Couldn't be happier about going global!
Congratulations on your nuptials!
Your unique Bourbon Barrel Rehab Bourbon Barrel Head Guest Book needs a little special attention. It is best for your guests to use extra fine point permanent markers (i.e. Sharpie) to write on the surface of the barrel head to avoid bleeding and smearing. Once you have all your signatures and salutations use four or five coats of a SPRAY polyurethane to coat and protect the surface. DO NOT brush on a sealant as the marker will smear! Please be aware that your barrel head has recently been in contact with bourbon and will still be drying out. Your Guest Book has been reinforced but over time may still shrink and you may see the gaps between the wood expand a bit. This is all normal, so don’t worry if there is some separation. The back of the barrel head has been felted so it won’t scratch your walls if you decide to hang your barrel head (we have included a hanger and screws for you.) Be careful when hanging the barrel head because it is fairly heavy.
May your mornings bring joy and your evenings bring peace.
May your troubles grow few as your blessings increase.
May the saddest day of your future be no worse than the
happiest day of your past.

We were lucky enough to be invited to a wedding this weekend out in the beautiful Kentucky countryside. Beth & Ryan did it up right! Terrific weather (although a little cold at night), great people and lots of bourbon! Ryan works with Angel's Envy and I think at last count we went through 8 cases! Here are a few photos of the happy couple and the barrel head guest book we did for them!
Mr & Mrs
Shout out to Kyle Henderson and Angel's Envy Bourbon for helping make the day warmer! The 23 year old Pappy helped too!
The Groom's Cake! One of his favorite places is the now abandoned Old Taylor Distillery. One of the prettiest places on the Kentucky River.
It seems that everyone is looking for a unique spin on wedding guest books. Whether it be photo montages or photo booths or fingerprint trees, there are a thousand ways to have your guests express their love to you on your special day. Our Bourbon Barrel Head Guest Books are uniquely Kentucky and are Re-Made in Kentucky from used bourbon barrels. Or do you want a special cake platter? How about your names and date on a bourbon barrel cake platter? We can personalize and customize the barrel head, staves or the whole barrel itself for you to treasure all the days of your marriage! Here are a few examples.
We had the great luck to be called by our friend Stephanie at Green Lady Studio in Louisville to help out with the decor for the Kentucky Bourbon Lodge at The Forecastle Festival this year. Kathy Schmitt at Crescent Hill Trading Company provided many of the interesting decor items too! My Morning Jacket was the headliner on Saturday night and Wilco ended the weekend with an amazing light show. Lucky to live and work in this great town!
