Woodwinds

4.3

Branford, CT
  • Up to 600 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $110

WoodWinds is one of the most sought after Connecticut wedding venues for wedding receptions, banquets, corporate events or any special occasion, in the Tri-State area. A wedding in our impressive European Country Manor will reflect your personal vision. Imagine a magical experience, enhanced by a unique ceremony and reception on the beautiful grounds of WoodWinds. Envision standing on a grand staircase under the twinkle of Austrian Crystal chandeliers, taking pictures in a magnificent garden and dancing the night away on a marble dance floor.

I cannot say enough GREAT things about the Woodwinds and their crew! From touring with Vanessa to the planning with Randy and Michael, they all made the whole process SUPER easy! Vanessa really helped us with booking by spelling everything out, so it was so easy to understand. When you go on so many tours it can get so confusing, but they have it down to a science to keep it organized. Michael provided us with some tools to help with the planning. They had a way for us to organize our guests at tables and even had an event order where we just had to click and drag things in the order, we wanted them! Michael and Randy were always super prompt with our emails, even at weird hours of the night when we had to add one guest the day before our wedding. We had some pretty wild requests with some of our decorations (which they take care of setting up AND packing up at the end of the night) but they nailed it. We sent Michael a bunch of pictures and when we came for our rehearsal the day before our wedding Sergio was going through them to make sure every detail was perfect. Which leads me onto our day of crew...Sergio made our dreams come to life. He was there for every little thing we needed. We were ready to cut the cake, and when we turned around the photographer was set up, the DJ was playing the music we requested, and he had laid out the knife so that we had to smile and drop the knife onto the cake. He was flawless throughout the evening. We even had a bridal bestie who followed us around the entire night. It was a little cold, and she had a hand warmer for me! After dancing for a little and right before cake she came out with a mirror for us so we could make sure we looked great for pictures! She even made sure we ate and drank... You heard that right...WE ATE AT OUR WEDDING!!! The food was absolutely phenomenal. Michael recommended the Sunday Sauce, if they sold it in jars, we would buy it by the case! All the food was so good! We don't have a single negative thing to say about Woodwinds. Everyone there was so nice and pleasant to work with. Even when we called in payments, Kate at the main desk was super helpful and quick to respond. This is a team of true professionals, and we will be using them in the future!

Bill Miller's Castle

  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $9,000

A magnificent, breathtaking landmark, Bill Miller’s Castle has served as an elegant venue for weddings, corporate events, and special occasions. Meticulous attention to detail, natural stonework, exposed reclaimed beams, an antique bronze bell weighing more than one ton, and rare antique furniture create a beautiful backdrop for any event or special occasion. Featuring five working field-stone fireplaces, three-story cathedral ceilings, ornate stained glass windows, crystal chandeliers, and a large dance floor; the grandeur of Bill Miller’s Castle will make your guests feel truly extraordinary from the moment they walk through the door.

Bill Millers gave us our fairytale wedding! Lisa and her daughter were lovely to work with. We were brides that wanted a one stop shop so that we didn’t have to think of all the smaller details. We got that and more! They handled catering, linens, seating for the ceremony and reception, setting up decor the day of, the list goes on! Lisa was also a huge help when it came to planning the ceremony. Since we are a same sex couple, there were traditions we had to tweak and she helped make it our own. She made us feel comfortable from the beginning and that meant the world to us! Another thing we loved most on our wedding day was that we felt prioritized. They made sure we were feeling our best, that we had time to sit as a couple alone after the ceremony for a few minutes and just take it all in. They even brought us a plate of appetizers! I can’t say enough about this venue, they did an amazing job and made our dreams come true! Highly recommend!

As a photographer I've worked at Mansion at Bald Hill many times, and have eaten at the restaurant as well... and every. single. time, the staff and the experience blows me away. There's an elegant, New England charm that draws so many people to plan their wedding weekend, vacation getaway, or fancy dinner there. The food is wayyy better than the food I've had from other venues and caterers. It's always hot, they always serve their guests and vendors really well.
