Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • With its broad lawns and period architecture, this magnificent 1924 mansion might be the backdrop for one of the fictitious revelries in an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel. This extraordinary setting is matched by the topnotch service: your exclusive catering and bar are provided by Colette's, a beloved outfit known for fabulous cuisine, stunning cakes, and impeccable attention to detail.
  • An ornate wrought-iron gazebo sits at the heart of the Italian Gardens, surrounded by palm-fringed plantings, fragrant roses, and a flurry of colorful blooms. Continue the celebration al fresco in the Center Circle Courtyard, lit by necklaces of twinkling lights, or dine and dance in the estate's main gallery, where a baby grand piano is on hand for musical entertainment and a glass ceiling frames starry views. 
  • Every room inside is also a gallery, displaying diverse art from around the globe in rotating exhibits. As your guests mingle in the wood-floored atrium, the wedding party can capture their own gallery-worthy photos throughout: the entry foyer, with its wrought-iron spiral staircase and stained glass windows, is a favorite setting, along with the octagonal solarium, warmed by light flowing in through expansive windows.
