About this venue

The Willows is an elegant, hilltop venue located in Villanova, PA. The mansion sits on top of a hill with sweeping views of The Willows Park Preserve— an expansive 49 acres with serene meadows and a pond. Built in 1910 for the bride of a wealthy distillery owner, the mansion is a beautiful example of Spanish revival architecture, a nod to his California-born bride. The Willows is an exclusive venue with boutique catering provided by Peachtree Catering. As a full-service catering and event company, we assist you with all of your planning needs - vendor recommendations, menu planning, timelines, linen and equipment selections, floor plans, ceremony rehearsals, and more. This is one-stop shopping! We will help you with all the decision-making leading up to your event, and will be there to ensure that the day is as perfect as you imagined it to be.

Why can't I give them more than 5 stars??
The Willows is just an incredible place to have your wedding. I wouldn't have changed a thing. We found this venue last in our search and knew it was the perfect one. The venue is gorgeous - the mansion foyer, library, solarium, and patio all offer a different vibe, each equally as gorgeous. Guests would not stop commenting on how beautiful the views were (we also got lucky with a beautiful day)! Working with Chelsea as our main coordinator and Romy as our attendant were just about the best two people we could have had on our wedding day. Attentive, understanding, flexible, and just so kind. The food was exceptional, guests couldn't stop raving about this as well. Truly the perfect day!
