Hill-Physick Mansion and Garden

explore, but it never felt too big. The garden is super well maintained and beautiful (the grass is actually turf which meant there weren’t any muddy spots). We didn’t end up spending much time inside the house because we got perfect weather, but it’s charming and the museum upstairs is good entertainment for guests. The venue does require events to end at 9 because it’s in a residential area, but we wanted to have an after party anyways, so the earlier end time wasn’t a problem for us! Also, we have to shout out the amazing Hill Physick event team. Megan was so easy to work with from the beginning and helped coordinate our different vendors seamlessly. She even let us use her setting spray when we realized that we forgot ours after getting to the venue! Definitely recommend Hill Physick if you’re looking for a small to mid size wedding venue!

r going above and beyond to answer questions and help us find vendors.

we were selecting a venue and Megan was always available to talk through everything we needed to know. The house and garden/yard is beautifully maintained and it truly was an amazing setting for our outdoor wedding ceremony and reception. Megan was also a big help in providing vendor recommendations which also helped make the day run so smoothy since they were familiar with the venue and how and where to set up and make things go off without a hitch. Megan was also organized and held a walkthrough with certain vendors to make sure the day we were all on the same page. We also appreciated that Megan was able to provide insight as to the floor plan that would work best for the ceremony, reception, and dancing as well as rain plan alternatives (which thankfully we did not need). We were able to have an absolutely amazing day at the Hill-Physick House with our family and closest friends and we would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful historic backdrop for their special event.

le. We hosted a rehearsal dinner for 100 people -- two big families! Only downside is the time limit of 9 PM to close down, but for a rehearsal dinner this was no problem. Many people went home and the rest adjourned to a nearby bar for a welcome party for all the out of town guests, mainly friends of the bride and groom arriving late anyway for a Saturday wedding. Inside space is very pretty and historic with high ceilings and beautiful rooms, but holds a smaller crowd (50? 60?). Their approved tent vendor did a splendid job, with a clear top tent and fairy lights. It couldn't have been better!

im, the site managers, are also very nice to work with.

ourse of the year prior to the wedding, and misinformed on several key details. They also lost an expensive personal item and required that we work with an incompetent tent company. We were also rushed out of the venue in the pouring rain at the end of the wedding. The space was beautiful, yes, but you’ll tear your hair out trying to plan your wedding here. Hopefully they will take weddings more seriously and hire staff that can better handle future weddings.

of our many special requests. It was also so convenient to have a venue in the city, so our out of town guests didn't have to battle with getting to the suburbs in order to have the wedding in a historic home and garden. I definitely recommend Physick House!
