Facilities and Capacity
Thistlewood Manor offers beautiful indoor and outdoor venue space for couples of all styles. Surrounded by a picturesque garden landscape, the courtyard is perfect for your outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. The gardens offer charm and casual seating for guests to enjoy drinks and hors d’oeuvres before dinner, plus lots of great photo spots.
Featuring a grandiose staircase as well as crystal chandeliers and marble-like flooring, the French-inspired mansion creates that luxurious magical feel. Add the stately wrought iron and glass doors leading to the patio and courtyard for an easy transition between your various activities.
The ballroom accommodates comfortably about 160-175 with a nice dance floor. Plus, in the fall and spring seasons, expanding to the patio or lawn enables 200+ guests. If you are looking for more of an outdoor reception, the courtyard is ½ acre, so there is plenty of space for just about anything.
As you have access to the venue all day long, you will be especially pleased with our fantastic dressing suites, with full baths and plenty of mirrors. The bride’s room even includes a private patio adjacent to the gardens, while the groomsmen enjoy a TV for their games...
