Your Wedding

Your once-in-a-lifetime celebration deserves a one-of-a-kind setting. Whether you prefer intimate candlelit weddings in our mansion’s glass conservatory or outdoor tented ceremonies in our courtyard garden, Willowdale Estate combines elegance and warmth to make your day truly special.

At Bramble Hospitality, we celebrate the differences that make each client event unique, and warmly welcome people of every race, religion, and gender identity. The team behind weddings at Willowdale Estate is open to all!

Nicole & Paul – For us, the venue was more than just a backdrop…

For us, the venue was more than just a backdrop… it was an integral part of our day. When we visited Willowdale, we knew almost immediately that we had found our perfect location. We were struck first by the rustic beauty of the mansion house itself.

The Perfect Match

At Willowdale Estate, we specialize in full-service weddings year-round. Outdoor events feature a Sperry Tent and often begin with a ceremony in our Garden Courtyard, continue indoors with the use of elegant air-conditioned rooms for Cocktail Hour, and the reception is held under a sailcloth tent that includes flooring, tent sides, and heaters.

If you’re looking for a smaller Wedding Venue in Massachusetts, our sister property, Briar Barn Inn, is an excellent choice! Briar Barn Inn is a rural retreat that offers weddings and events for up to 100 guests. Grove at Briar Barn Inn can host rehearsal dinners, room blocks, or smaller weddings and events. Located just 10 minutes away from Willowdale Estate, in Rowley, Massachusetts. Learn More Here!
