Peterson Dumesnil House

The Peterson-Dumesnil House is a beloved historic venue nestled in Louisville’s Crescent Hill neighborhood, offering timeless elegance and Southern charm for weddings, receptions, and special events. Built in 1869, this beautifully preserved Victorian-era home sits on nearly four acres of landscaped grounds, featuring wraparound porches, mature trees, and a picturesque gazebo.

Inside, the house boasts original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and antique details that create a warm and intimate atmosphere. Whether you’re planning a romantic outdoor ceremony, a tented garden party, or a cozy indoor gathering, the Peterson-Dumesnil House provides a flexible, storybook setting with rich character and a peaceful, tucked-away feel—just minutes from downtown.
