"A historic estate located in Indian Hill, this beautiful venue is one of the best places to host an event in Cincinnati. It is surrounded by green space- giving you a lot of privacy but also a lot of flexibility to create an outdoor event space.

Planning Tips from a pro
I
Peterloon offers a beautiful sprawling landscape with unique rooms and lawn spaces. Be sure to spread out your events, so guests can experience the natural beauty and rich history of the site. We recommend getting ready in the bridal suite, an outdoor ceremony on the side lawn, a cocktail hour in the living room, and a reception on the new patio. This venue takes your breath away with every turn, and you will want to be sure you make the most of the space on your big day.
II
Peterloon offers stunning antique pieces to place your cake and favors, so be sure to make good use of these available items. We always recommend doing a site visit with your wedding planner, photographer, and florist, so they can create a timeless aesthetic that accentuates the history of the space.
III
You will want to make sure your timeline allows for plenty of photos both inside and outside. By walking the space with your wedding planner and photographer, you can ensure you have time for it all (even sunset photos)!
