Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • Encompassing a Colonial-era estate and exquisitely manicured gardens, this National Historic Landmark is a place with a story—and a magnificent setting for meaningful celebrations. With a rich history, thoughtful design, and prime location steps away from Princeton's heart, it's an elegant and peaceful escape from the ordinary.
  • Exchange vows on the Great Lawn before the mansion's stunning Federal-style facade, framed by mature trees and shady groves. Follow with a tented or open-air reception in the Colonial Revival Garden, where you'll dine and dance amid seasonally-changing flowers, herbs, and vegetables.
  • The pretty pocket gardens are an especially natural fit for small weddings, tucked alongside a historic brick wall. Steps away, you'll find the sleek, modern Stockton Education Center, where intimate receptions might unfold before large windows overlooking the gardens' golden hour glow.
