Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Tucked in the heart of Old Towne Orange, this stunning historic landmark has been transformed into a charming boutique hotel and a versatile, stylish event venue. Spectacular celebrations are a specialty here, thanks to the experts at 24 Carrots, the region's premiere catering and events company, making it the perfect destination for a spectacular soiree.
- Say "I do" in the swoon-worthy Estelle Ballroom, which is flooded with natural light. Exposed wood beamed ceilings, accented by intricate wainscoting details and multipaned windows, create a bright, airy feel and an acoustically rich setting. After the party dies down, you can end the evening in The Attic Suite, a romantic retreat for the newlyweds secreted away above the main house.
- Gather under shady, jasmine vine-laced pergolas in the Porte Cochere Patio, a welcoming space ideal for drinks and dining al fresco, or in the Living Room Bar & Lounge, where a cozy fireplace, rich wood walls, and a U-shaped built-in bar create a modern-meets-midcentury vibe.
