MANOR & PAVILION
This gorgeous estate was built in 1929 by Walter Strong as a family estate to share with his wife, Blythe. Expense was no object as the owners curated the best of 1920 period features and employed expert architects to create a mansion in the popular Spanish Colonial Revival style. Highpoints of this attention to detail include hand-stamped tiles, timeless décor, ornate fireplaces, a grand staircase, and a stunning balcony for you to view the gardens. The Manor House boasts a glorious grand hall with chandeliers, oversized windows, a private patio area, and two dressing suites. The gorgeous pavilion boasts a cathedral ceiling adorned with iron chandeliers and double French doors, bringing the beauty of the outside indoors. The adjoining courtyard features a cozy fireplace, high-end furnishings, and Spanish revival architecture.

They made everything easy. The packages include nearly everything, and the staff and vendors were all AMAZING! Guests kept telling us how beautiful the venue is and how much they enjoyed our event.
I could not be more impressed. Our guests loved the location, and we thought it was absolutely beautiful. From the structure and the big tree to the carriage house, to dinner under the stars and the elegant pavilion, we had a fantastic event; it was a truly romantic garden experience.
The ceremony was beautiful in the lush garden setting, and we had our dinner outside. The food was fabulous! The reception continued with dessert and dancing inside, which made it really fun! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a wedding venue.
