We had fun exploring the various rooms: red carpet for the step & repeat, cash bar, main room with round tables, bathroom, private spaces with long tables or rounds, the space for a buffet of heavy starters and desserts and lastly, a gorgeous space designed by Maker's Mark. We walked upstairs to check out their private suite area, made perfect for bridal parties. A large mirror for getting ready plus styling tables to do hair and make up. Per the owner, this may turn into an AirBNB option. The faculty is perfect for events or large party gatherings. They have TVs throughout the building and I loved watching the photo loop of the theater's pictures. We enjoyed the food on the menu, especially the meatballs and roast beef sandwiches. Add this space to your list for event rentals! They have made partnerships with nearby hotels.

The main buildings sit back from the road but their entrance and signage are fairly easy to spot on Frankfort Ave. I also appreciate the ample parking near the main building. Several steps lead to the front door so check with the Olmstead's team if you need a ramp. If needed, a coat check is in the lobby. The main foyer sits in the middle of two ballrooms. For conferences and weddings they can utilize both sides - i.e. one side for speakers / ceremony and another for lunches / reception. A stage is available and at one wedding the ceiling was beautifully decorated. Food is fairly basic but I've always enjoyed it. Servers came around regularly to clear plates and restock drinks. Bathrooms are located off the foyer and have a few stalls to manage a crowd. Outside the main building offers outside seating and lots of greenery. No issue with sound, whether it's speakers hooked up to wireless mics or DJs and classical ensembles. The screen projection for conferences is very clear too. My only issue is seating when attending a conference. The chairs are metal and not comfortable during a full-day session.

The parking lot is easy to access right off of Taylorsville road and there is plenty of parking in two large, separate parking areas. The voting is very streamlined and easy to do. You walk in, present your ID, they give you a ballot, fill it out, drop it off, get a sticker (or wrist band) and you're on your way. It's never taken me longer than 20 minute to vote in any election. My recommendation would be to vote early (if you can), and if you're voting on Election day, go as early in the day as you can. It can get very busy the later in the day. High Marks for voting at The Jeffersonian!

I always enjoy coming to the UClub.

For the third year in a row, we attended the Easter egg hunt yesterday. Eggs are strewn all over the large lawn, and this event is large enough to feel like a community event while not being too big. It's still intimate and special. Important to know: This Easter egg hunt starts promptly at 10 a.m. If you arrive at 10:03 you'll miss out on eggs. We've also attended the Halloween event, complete with a small Halloween parade for kids in costumes along the driveway, and the Christmas open house with Santa. The PD House is large and stately but very welcoming. I love that it has become a symbol and gathering point for the neighborhood. It can also be rented out for events. I've passed by some beautiful weddings being held there. We are so lucky to have this landmark so close!

It is also the annual site for the Crescent Hill 4th of July Celebration. They allow visitors to come inside to view the second floor and view raffle/silent auction items. The bathrooms have been updated and provide a mix of old and new. One room is a perfect bridal suite area with a 3-way mirror. Rentals of Peterson Dumesnil also include beautiful outdoor spaces, whether for intimate vow exchanges or to increase seating space with tables and bartenders on the front lawn. Parking is available nearby the space, primarily as street parking. Kudos to those on the Foundation for taking great care of this space and making it available for the public.
