garage. Macy Nichols, whosefather, Joe, farms in the area,saw the property “as a beau-tiful space for events.”So Joe Nichols and Michael
Oliver, who own SevenSprings Farms, purchasedthe property on LongfordBridge Road. The mainhouse was converted into ameeting space, called theDrake Room, the upstairsmaster suite became thebridal suite and the two-cargarage is now the groom’slodge. The full-service salonis still there and run byStacee Shelton-Fiese.Macy Nichols and Melanie
Noffsinger serve as eventplanners. The property wasdeemed Southern SpringsEvents and Salon.“It’s happened the way it’s
supposed to happen,”Nichols said.The salon continued serv-
ice when Shelton-Fiese washired in February. The firstevent at Southern Springs’barn was Trigg County AgDay lunch in July, when themain event barn was not yetfinished. Soon, brides andgrooms were booking theproperty for weddings, thefirst booking was Matt and
Courtney Keller on Oct. 24,and Lynley and Ethan Taylormarried there on Oct. 3.A barn on the property had
been updated with acid-stained and heated concretefloors, which enable year-round events. The barn couldfit about 200 people. Threechandeliers hang from thebarn’s ceiling. The back endof the barn features largeglass windows that can be
rolled up to “achieve theopen air barn feeling whenthe weather is nice,” Noff-singer said. The windowslook out to a stone patio.“We do have two large koi
ponds with plans to add athird one closer to the eventbarn,” Noffsinger said. Thelargest pond has a gazebowith a dock. The other pondis home to mallard ducks,which are featured in South-
ern Springs logo and brand-ing.“The whole property cre-
ates a perfect backdrop forany pictures,” Noffsingersaid.A silo painted with the
venue’s themed colors ofdark green and white sits ina field. Corn, soybeans andwheat are grown around theproperty. And Chris Boydtakes care of the grounds.
In addition to hosting wed-dings and receptions, thevenue is available for birth-day parties, wedding or babyshowers, reunions, holidayparties, fundraisers or corpo-rate meetings.Although Southern
Springs doesn’t offer cater-ing, they have a holdingkitchen in the event barnand the main house for out-side caterers to use. Thevenue has its own liquor li-cense so bar services areavailable to those who book.Even if an event venue is
not something you need atthe moment, the salon isopen for services includingsunless tanning, women’scuts, styles and coloring andmen’s trims and cuts. Shel-ton-Fiese’s services can alsobe added to wedding pack-ages.For more information
about the wedding packagesor the event venue, call MacyNichols or Melanie Noff-singer at 270-522-4295. Youcan also find out more by vis-iting Southern SpringsEvents on Facebook, Insta-gram or WeddingWire or on-line at www.southernspringsevents.com.“When you book, you get
exclusive use,” Noffsingersaid. “It’s intimate.”

The Silo is scheduled toopen on April 1, but it maybe the second week of Aprilbefore work is complete,said Maria Bolinger, whoowns the property with herhusband, Ben Bolinger. The Silo has been abouttwo years in the making.Ben Bolinger runs an ap-praisal business and therewas a need for a gatheringplace for auctions and alsooffice space. When not inuse for auctions, theBolingers planned to usethe space for events. Maria

THE SILO
FROM PAGE 8
Bolinger has experience inworking with an eventvenue, as her family runs anevent center in central Illi-nois, where she is from. So the Bolingers bought
about 35 acres at 110 JohnRives Road and began to de-sign the building with archi-tect Chris Spur. The buildingis a dairy barn design with asilo. The main room is about800 square feet and should fitabout 500 people. Those numbers put The
Silo “right in the middle” asfar as venue size in the area,Maria Bolinger said. Largervenues are the James E.Bruce Convention Centerand Valor Hall, whilesmaller venues includeSouthern Springs, BurdocFarms, Sugar Grove Car-
riage House, the ForbesEvent Center, Naimoli Es-tate, Pennyrile State Forestand Lake Barkley state re-sort parks, local hotels,among others.
The Silo will house officesfor Bolinger Appraisal, Har-ris Real Estate and Auctionand also the event venue it-self, which Maria Bolingerdescribes as a versatile “inti-
mate Southern structure”that resembles a traditionaldairy barn with exposedwood beams, polished con-crete and chandeliers.“There’s nothing like this
in west Kentucky,” BenBolinger told the New Era inJanuary.There’s opportunities to
have indoor and outdoorevents, including weddings,receptions, birthday parties,company events or others.The Purple Tie Ball, an eventto benefit the Alzheimer’sAssociation, will be at TheSilo on Aug. 27.There are about 15 events
already booked at The Silo.The Bolingers set up a Face-book page in January andthat is the venue’s only ad-vertising so far. A website isin the works and should bedone in about three weeks. Ahomepage can be seen atwww.thesiloevents.com. Formore information, call 270-889-8829 or visit The Silo onFacebook. “We’re really excited,”
Maria Bolinger said.
