"Receptions Site Part 3"

When Maggie and Rob finally decided that the Wadsworth Mansion was "it," I felt like I was buying a house, not renting one for an evening.  I'm not talking about the cost, just the paperwork involved - age after page of contract to sign.

What we liked about the Wadsworth: 1) We could choose our own caterer, (the reliable and experienced Heidi).  2) We could purchase our own liquor (and employ Heidi's bartenders).  3) The grounds and interior was beautiful.  If we were lucky enough to have a nice evening, we could go outside.  If it rained - very possible in New England - there was ample room for dining and dancing in the mansion.  4) The mansion was decorated in a lovely manner already.  We could enhance it's beauty with flowers, but a fortune needn't be spent to make it special.  5) Parking was plentiful. 6) Many locations for great photo opportunities.  7) Guest furniture was already elegant, (please note the picture above), no need for white covered folding chairs. 8) While not in Glastonbury, it was not a super long trek from the church. 9) It has a lovely old "New England" history and,  10) The kitchen was large and conducive to organized food prep and serving.

Hopefully the next time I post about this venue…I'll have actual picture of OUR wedding...
