Now Booking Sessions at Florida’s Most Beautiful Equestrian Venue
Blog Series No. 5 | By Nina Barr | NinaBarr.Studio
Visiting the World Equestrian Center (WEC) in Ocala, Florida is every horse girl’s dream—and honestly, a dream for anyone who loves beautiful design, animals, and luxury done right.
From the moment you arrive, it feels like walking into a Disney World for equestrians. Everything is spacious, manicured, and artfully designed. From arenas to walkways, boutiques to barns—it’s a place where function meets elegance at every turn.
🐶 A Dog-Friendly Dream
One of the best parts? It’s incredibly dog friendly, too. I had the pleasure of bringing Copper and Todd along for the trip—and they had just as much fun as I did. From golf cart rides, to lounging poolside, to watching horse shows, these two Southern mutts soaked up every second.
We even stopped into the candy shoppe, where they politely begged for gourmet seeds while I browsed the cutest sweets and treats. It’s rare to find a venue that celebrates horses, humans, and hounds with such ease and charm.
✨ Why I Love Shooting at WEC
