The Wedding Website of Olivia Schipani and Sam Marshall
1084 Shennecossett Rd, Groton, CT A panoramic ocean view; sailboats drifting by; and sparkling lawns – all enjoyed from the patio of a majestic, turn-of-the-century mansion. With its regal entryway, Grand Ballroom, and commanding oak-carved staircase, the Branford Mansion is the ideal setting for your special event. With its beautiful stone façade and warm, hand-carved wooden panel interiors, the Branford House Mansion hosts festive events and gala celebrations year-round. Mingle with guests on the sprawling stone veranda and enjoy dining and dancing in the ballroom. Your family and friends will be charmed by it all – stone terraces, the great room’s two-story marble fireplace, rococo ceilings, a lawn that stretches to the Avery Point Lighthouse, and waves breaking on the shore. https://averypoint.uconn.edu/about/branford-house/#
