The Galt House Louisville Kentucky
The Galt House has been Louisville’s only waterfront hotel since 1835.
In the early 1800s, the original Galt House was a residence owned by Dr. W. C. Galt. In 1835, a 60-room hotel was opened as The Galt House Hotel across the street.
The Galt House was re-established by developer Al J. Schneider in 1972 as part of Louisville’s Riverfront Urban Renewal Project.
To this day, The Galt House is Louisville’s only waterfront hotel.
Sarah and Trey chose The Galt House as their reception venue after having their ceremony at St. Agnes Church.
And they chose Green Apple Photography to be their Louisville wedding photographer.
St. Agnes Church became “St. Agnes” in 1880 after Mt. St. Mary’s was closed and reopened under the new name of Mt. St. Agnes.
Mt. St. Mary was used as an academy for girls in 1873.
A few years after the re-opening, in 1885, St. Agnes was given parochial status.
Construction of the current church began in 1927.
St. Agnes credits the Boston firm of A. P. Mardine for designing and furnishing many of the interior decoration.
After saying their vows at the church, Sarah and Trey, surrounded by friends and family shared their first dance as a married couple at The Galt House.
What better place to begin “forever”?
