Anyone else really looking forward to the day where we can celebrate with family and friends like this again? Until then, we'll be sharing photos of the fun we've had, and helping our clients plan for the future. Have you made memories with us? We'd love to hear in the comments!⠀ Photo: @the_spragues

It’s been just over a week since we decided to temporarily close Willowdale Estate to the public. We are so grateful for our supportive community. Thank you for the kind messages, encouragement, and helpful resources. We look forward to the day when we can safely welcome visitors again! ⠀ 💛⠀
We are still here for your questions about events! Since our team is working from home, email works best at this time, but we would love to start or continue planning with those who are looking forward to their next visit to our location. In the past week, we’ve developed video tours that describe our Tent Season, Mansion Season, and Hospitality Suites – a great resource for those of our followers who are planning an event in 2020 or 2021. Get in touch, we’d love to hear from you! ⠀

Creating a pristine location for your gatherings i

Creating a pristine location for your gatherings is at the heart of what we do best. This week, after limitations on events and gatherings due to the ongoing concerns about the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), mandates from the state of Massachusetts, and the guidelines of the CDC it has become clear that gathering and hosting at our location would be temporarily paused. Furthermore, we have made the difficult decision to limit tours, meetings and visits to Willowdale Estate to the public until April 5th, or when it is made clear that the risk to our communities has mitigated.
We look forward to a time where we can host gatherings again, and this difficult choice that will ensure that we are able to better serve our wedding and event clients in 2020 and beyond.
Our team will remain in close contact with our clients through phone, email and virtual meetings. It’s our hope to reopen to the public as soon as possible. We know many of you are looking forward to your next visit and we can’t wait to see you again soon.
Thank you for your support.

This wedding party managed to JUST fit everyone in for this bathroom shot. There's lots of great spaces around the estate for beautiful photo opportunities, but our tub seems to be a favorite! ⠀

A side of our venue you may have missed- the North Wing Entrance! Perfect for private portrait sessions, an outdoor shortcut to our Tent in the warmer months, and overall a very scenic side of the property with the Ipswich River visible from the doorway in the winter, and a lush forest view in May through October!

If there's one thing that can make a big impact on

If there's one thing that can make a big impact on your guests, it's the food! We take our in-house catering very seriously, from sourcing the best products, making each element from scratch in our on-site kitchen, and finally making a great impression on our guests when it's time to eat with excellent presentation, flavors, and portions! So the next time you host an event, never underestimate the power of a perfect menu! ⠀
