Weddings at the Mansion

Whether you're considering an intimate sit down dinner or an outside celebration with 200 of your closest family and friends, the Asa Waters Mansion offers outstanding intimacy and elegance.  We offer a variety of options for your ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.

Ceremony: Declare your intentions to one another on the lovely grounds of the estate—perhaps on our 19th century style bandstand, under our stately trees, or on our gracious columned portico. Or consider having your service inside the Mansion surrounded by grandeur.

Cocktails: Enjoy a lovely day outdoors on the lawn, porches, or bandstand, or step inside to enjoy the richness of the estate’s period architecture and decor.

Reception: Keep your celebration intimate with a formal sit down dinner or buffet for up to 50 guests inside the Mansion. For guest lists over 50, your event would be hosted under our lovely garden tent.

At the Asa Waters Mansion, it is always a party! Sweet 16s, graduation parties, anniversary dinners, retirement parties... if you can celebrate it, we can host it! The Asa Waters Mansion staff will work with you every step of the way, and we will also see to it that you are paired with the catering firm from our list of partners that best suits your needs. Whether you are looking to host an intimate sit-down dinner  or a big tented affair on the Mansion grounds, the Asa Waters Mansion will help you to realize your vision.

Conferences & Office Parties

The Asa Waters Mansion will also make your corporate event stand out from the pack! This stately nineteenth-century home makes for an elegant and inviting atmosphere for staff holiday parties and team-building brunches and luncheons. It is also a great venue for more formal corporate events like conferences, workshops, and black-tie fundraisers. In addition to our usual dining amenities, we can provide an HD digital projector, standard pull-down screen, and microphones for presentations. Clients also have their choice of room configuration: auditorium-style rowed seating, tables and chairs, or a combination.
