Ardenwood Affairs is the East Bay's premier garden wedding and reception facility. Your guests can stroll through the beautiful and enchanting gardens that surround the Patterson Mansion, the impressive focal point of Ardenwood. Begin your perfect day by arriving to your ceremony in an elegant, Victorian horse and carriage. An expansive lawn, complete with a white Victorian-style gazebo, provides a wonderful area for your wedding ceremony. Evening receptions are especially magical, with old-fashioned oil lanterns glowing on each table. If you like, you can arrange a special tour of the house, which has been restored to its 19th-century elegance, or treat your guests to a trip around the property in a gleaming horse-drawn carriage. All Weddings Include… • Tasting of our menus (for couples choosing the full-service reception) • Professional wedding planner and wedding day coordinator. • One hour wedding rehearsal scheduled with your wedding day coordinator. • Bridal Dressing room • Expansive grounds are available for your pre-wedding photography • Complimentary Guest Parking
