A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review

  • The exquisite mansion was Thomas Jefferson's boyhood home, and is considered one of the country's most complete surviving examples of a Colonial estate.
  • Intimate affairs are lovely in the manor itself, whose elaborate cornices, graceful alcoves, grand staircases, and domed ceilings are said to have influenced Jefferson's thoughts on architecture.
  • Host a grand event on one of the sweeping lawns, including an option with lovely colonial-style hardscaping, and have the historic home or stunning gardens as your unforgettable backdrop. Throughout your event, guests can wander around the grounds, which include herb, vegetable, and pleasure gardens and boast dreamy river views.
