About The Estate

The Estate is a private wedding and event venue on a Connecticut hilltop, with a restored Gothic Revival mansion, manicured grounds spanning more than 12 acres, and a vineyard. Couples can hold ceremonies outdoors on the grounds, including on the lawn or at the pergola, and use the mansion and sailcloth tent for celebrations. The mansion includes parlors, a dining room, library, and pub room; a restored outbuilding beside the tent has a bar, fireplace, seating, and porch. The property is reserved exclusively for one event per day.
