Host a Country Wedding in the Heart of the City
Farmington Historic Home is a wedding venue that sits on 18 stunning acres in the heart of Louisville, KY. We have beautiful formal gardens behind a historic home, built for the Speed family in 1816, and visited by Abraham Lincoln.
There are multiple outdoor spaces on the property for a truly spectacular wedding ceremony. Alternatively, you could combine the ceremony and reception and host your gathering under our open-air pavilion. It really is a grand space adaptable for a variety of uses.
The best thing about Farmington Historic Home is that the venue is perfect for all kinds of occasions. Whether it's a wedding for 30 or 300, a milestone anniversary, or a small rehearsal dinner, Farmington is one of Louisville's most special event spaces.

Farmington was a perfect and beautiful choice for our wedding. The gardens provided a spectacular backdrop for our special day and the covered reception area was amazing. We chose ...
September 5th so our date was pretty hot but we managed to keep from melting away, especially once the sun set. The carriage house was the perfect space for getting ready and it also had a kitchen and bathrooms. Overall I am incredibly pleased that we chose Farmington for our wedding and can't complain about any aspect.
