Wilder Mansion

Why We Like This Place


Reasons we’re fans of the Wilder Mansion:
• This restored 1868 landmark lends its Victorian grandeur to weddings, corporate functions, holiday parties and many other types of events. Weddings have exclusive use of the mansion.

• Turn-of-the-century charm is accompanied by modern amenities, so you can comfortably host an event in a single room, on an entire floor, or take over the whole venue.

• Wilder Park Formal Garden is a gorgeous setting for an intimate outdoor ceremony. Here you can tie the knot surrounded by flowers, an herb garden and an abundance of greenery. Tenting is an option.

• The Diana Nicholas Gardens work well for cocktail receptions. Spread out around the mansion, they invite guests to mingle along winding paths and provide plenty of photo ops.

• The Wilder Mansion’s preferred caterers will help you plan the menu and décor for your celebration.
