We were so happy with our wedding at the Kehler Liddell Gallery in New Haven, CT. We recommend it to anyone looking for a classy, intimate setting and a great backdrop. We had our ceremony there and then quickly transformed the space for non-alcoholic drinks and cake with our guests. Working with the Kehler Liddell Gallery was easy and they allowed us to bring in the things we'd need for a ceremony and cocktail hour, including chairs and tables, etc. We were able to comfortably fit our approximately 80 guests and a string quartet in the space. It was a great evening we will always remember and we received many compliments from our guests.

We had a beautiful wedding at the greenhouse of the Beardsley Zoo. The GlowWild light festival in the evening simply added to the magic of the event. The coordinators were wonderful in helping us set up and organize everything. If I had one piece of constructive feedback, it would just be that the head coordinator, Lindsay, was sometimes tricky to get in contact with via telephone for things like making our deposit and final payment for the venue.

The Wadsworth Mansion At Long Hill Estate

Middletown, CT
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $25,000

The Wadsworth Mansion, a nineteenth-century Beaux Art style mansion, is the quintessential country estate. Graced by expansive lawns and surrounded by 103 acres of wooded parklands the Mansion reflects an era of grandeur and elegance. There are multiple locations for outdoor ceremonies and guests can enjoy cocktails and dance on the terrace under the stars. The Mansion can accommodate two hundred guests for a seated dinner reception and larger numbers for cocktail parties. Only one event is scheduled each day and couples can select from a list of approved caterers to create the wedding of their dreams.

My husband and I had our wedding here in December of 2023. We cannot say enough wonderful things about the Mansion itself as a beautiful venue or the staff who work there as excellent people. We had a smaller group of 60 people and it felt like just the right amount of space in the winter. It seemed like each one of those 60 people came up to us throughout the course of the day and told us they'd never been to a nicer wedding. We worked very closely with Rachel for almost a year on planning the day. She answered every question we had and made sure that we were extremely comfortable throughout the whole planning process. Even though she wasn't able to attend the wedding itself due to medical reasons, she took such perfect notes and made sure everything was ready leading up to it, that another staff member Megan was able to step in and made it feel like she was the one we'd been working with the whole time. They were both so helpful and kind. We couldn't have had the perfect day we did without them. Once we walked into the Mansion the first time, we knew that was the place we had to be married. We will cherish our memories of that day forever and look forward to returning to the Mansion for their public events throughout the year and just simply walking the beautiful grounds and reminiscing.
