If you’ve ever dreamed of having your wedding reception in the mansion from the movie Clue, Cairnwood Estate is the venue for you! Every room in this Gilded Age chateau has a different look and feel to it, leaving you so many options as you plan the flow of your reception and decide where to position your cocktail hour, dance floor, and dessert bar. The architecture is one of a kind both inside and out, which means all your photographs will be too. Couples also have access to the castle-like museum next to the main building, which offers a completely different vibe. The most epic place for photos is the high tower, but we also recommended the iconic staircase, which has a double in NYC. There are also several balconies that showcase the picturesque grounds. The tent used for the main dining space is exquisitely elegant, and there is a cute fire pit nearby for cozy late night socializing. Although you can’t hold your wedding ceremony on the estate, there are several options around the area, and the surrounding Bryn Athyn Historic District is brimming with history and remarkable architecture. At Cairnwood Estate, your wedding will look like something out of a fairytale.
