First built in 1891, this stately Georgian mansion is situated in the prominent East Rock neighborhood, only a block away from Yale University.

In January 1910, the Saturday Chronicle predicted that the Club would be much sought-after during the upcoming social season. Throughout the 1920s, debutantes flocked to the mansion to be introduced to society and dance the night away. Today, the building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and its event spaces have been lovingly-maintained for your benefit and enjoyment. The mansion is equipped to accommodate parties of up to 250 guests and boasts a lovely ballroom with a barrel-vaulted ceiling, checkered terrazzo floors, and crystal Art Deco lighting. Lawn Club Fine Catering’s fine team is ready and eager to help you design your perfect wedding celebration. Christine Brush, the venue’s Director of Weddings, will work closely with you to ensure that your event exceeds your expectations.

Reviewed On 10/26/2021 by Molly V
After we were engaged NYE 2020, we started the process of finding a venue for our wedding and although I did not know of the Lawn Club prior to all my research, we fell in love as soon as we found it! The photos were so enchanting and reviews s...
o unanimously positive, that the only place we actually toured was the Lawn Club - we signed the contract at the end of the tour and it was the best decision we made! Everything you have read about the Lawn Club is true, it is a beautiful, unique all-inclusive venue with an amazing candlelit Art Deco feel. We did both ceremony and reception at the Lawn Club and utilized the bridal suite to get ready… such a big, beautiful room, I loved it! Throughout the Lawn Club grounds, there’s so many unique spots for photos, we had such a fun time exploring with our photographers and the photos are stunning! Our guests were blown away by the venue, food, and the service! No one had to wait for bar service at any point throughout the night. There’s so many small details that make a wedding at the lawn club stand out. First, during the ceremony, the blinds on all the windows are down and the room is filled with dreamy candlelight, and as the bride enters the room and walks down the aisle, the curtains are raised to let the sunlight in - so heavenly! Second, once the ballroom is set up prior to the reception, Christine found my husband and I and brought us into the ballroom is take in the whole setup prior to any guests entering - such a special quiet moment that the two of us were able to share! If it wasn’t already clear, the shining star of the venue is that it comes with Christine… she runs all on-site coordination and was such a pleasure to work with (I could not have done it without here). We postponed out 2020 wedding to 2021 and it was such a smooth process and I was so thankful for that, as it was already a stressful time! She is insanely organized, so helpful, and was there day-of to make sure everything ran smoothly. Her and her team also do ALL setup and breakdown at the end of the night and I was able to take in every single aspect of the day, instead of running around setting things up! It goes without saying, but the wedding would not have been as perfect if it wasn’t for Christine! Don’t wait, book the Lawn Club, it is stunning!!

fers coordination services that you should still hire an outside coordinator. I can speak from experience that this is not the case with the Lawn Club. Every step of the way, Christine and the team were in contact and helped us make sure we were on the right track with planning. Everything was covered from when to send our save the dates to helping pick vendors that were in our budget. It made the planning process so much less stressful knowing that Christine was there to help. In the weeks leading up to the wedding they went above and beyond. They called all our vendors to coordinate and even helped us by providing outdoor heaters on the patio for our guests. When our wedding day came, we were able to relax and be in the moment (and enjoy our delicious dinners!) because we knew that everything was under control. It was truly a magical day and picking the lawn club as our venue was a huge part of the day's success!

le and the coordination by Christine of all the vendors we hired was so seamless that my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing the entire day. Prior to the wedding, Christine would happily jump on a call to discuss vendors or give advice to ensure our vision for our wedding was met. I call the list of vendors provided by Christine the "magic list" because every single vendor we interacted with was phenomenal. Additionally, we had an all vegetarian wedding and the Lawn Club chef was able to accommodate us with completely delicious results. We got so many compliments on the food (even from our typically meat eating guests!) that we knew we went with the right Vendor. On top of all of this amazing service, the Lawn Club is a gorgeous venue. The use of candles (provided by the Lawn Club) all over the club gave a romantic and intimate vibe and little details had big impact. The club has numerous spots to take photos and is also close enough to Yale's campus that we were able to go off site as well. To note, we had our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all at the Lawn Club and we would not have changed anything about that. Truly phenomenal experience working with Christine and her team.

ace I needed to have my wedding. Not only is the space so amazingly beautiful on the inside and outside, but the staff there are phenomenal. Christine and Karen both made the wedding planning process so much easier and I was able to truly enjoy my time wedding planning. Every single person working there was so kind, helpful, professional and made our day that much better. Every single guest made sure to tell me how much of a positive experience they had and how they truly appreciated the hospitality provided by Christine and team. Along with the wonderful service, the food and drinks are AMAZING. My husband and I want to join the day club for the food along! I can go on and on all day about how wonderful our experience with NHLC was, but I'll just say that it is definitely worth it and you will not only enjoy your day, but Christine, Karen and team will make sure you enjoy your entire experience.

des how BEAUTIFUL the club was, we knew we wanted to work with Christine to plan our wedding. Planning with the Lawn Club was seamless. It was really helpful to have a list of preferred vendors as it made research that much easier (especially during covid when everyone was booked and you had to reach out to EVERYONE). We got married off site so we hired Christine to help with the ceremony and it made the morning seamless as she handled everything on our behalf. Once we got to the Lawn Club, everything was just perfect, from the tables to the decorations we dropped off. Truly perfect. The food was absolutely amazing. Not to be biased but I've been to a lot of weddings and the club's food is the best. I cannot tell you how many people agreed. Most people got the beef Wellington and RAVED about it all night long. We are so grateful for the staff at the Lawn Club as we truly had an amazing and perfect day and I would recommend the club to anyone who wants to get married in CT!!!

hristine - she is so “on it” that she has an answer ready to your every question and she doesn’t miss a single little detail. Christine was swamped with weddings this past year so sometimes she would take a few days to circle back to us, but she never let anything fall through the cracks unresolved. Other amazing benefits about the lawn club - the food is EXCELLENT. Every single menu option and appetizer was delicious. And the club’s elegance means that you really can be simple and minimalist on decor. The ballroom is perfect for having a big dance floor and the acoustics are great for a live band. We could not be more happy with how our wedding day and wedding reception turned out thanks to the thoughtfulness and attentiveness of the Lawn Club team.

Everyone helping on the day made it flow with ease and our guests were absolutely wow-ed by all of the special details the Lawn Club puts into the event. Our guests raved that the food was the best they've had at a wedding (we personally thought so, too!). My cousin is severely allergic to dairy and eggs but he said that he felt really confident in them because they came over to double check his allergies and they make the allergy meals in a separate part of the kitchen. All of this to say - the Lawn Club is AMAZING. I will recommend to anyone wanting to get married in the New Haven area.

I know Christine had to have so many hard conversations with couples, but we appreciated her candor and willingness to go above and beyond.

wedding coordinators, Christine and Karen, are amazing at what they do!!! Throughout the whole wedding planning process, they were always available to answer any questions in a timely fashion and offer any help. We feel so grateful to them for making our day so amazing. Honestly, they are top notch and the best of the BEST at what they do! Even some of my vendors were raving about them!! You will be in good hands with both ladies! The food at the Lawn Club is delicious. Several of our guests told us that it was the best “wedding food” they’ve ever eaten. We loved that the portion sizes were adequate, therefore no guests left feeling hungry. The ballroom itself is beyond beautiful. As a bride with a specific vision, I was unsure of how things would end up looking all put together by someone else other than myself! Let me tell you that Christine and Karen exceeded my expectations. Things were lovely! We even ordered a late night snack to be brought in by Pepe’s and Christine offered to set everything up for us. Our interactions with other Lawn Club staff were great, everyone is beyond nice and helpful. There are several great spots to have first look photos and bridal photos taken, both inside and outside. My husband and I are happy that we chose to have the Lawn Club be the setting for the most important day of our lives. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a beautiful venue with great food and great wedding coordinators!!!!! Thank you so much Christine and Karen!

o has a ballroom large enough to host nearly 200 guests! It's centrally located in the heart of New Haven, but set back from the street so you're removed from the hustle and bustle of the city - it's truly a hidden gem! We have been to many weddings, so we were looking for a place that was unique and beautiful and the Lawn Club is it! So many of our guests commented on what a gorgeous venue it was, how delicious the food was, and how it was the nicest wedding they had ever been to! We chose to get ready on-site (and have hair and make-up come to us), which was one of the best decisions I made throughout the wedding planning process! The bridal suite is huge and feels really cozy - it's just a nice way to start the day, and you can relax knowing you don't have to rush off anywhere after you're done getting ready. In addition to the venue, the staff is amazing! Christine, the director of weddings, is the very best! She was on top of every detail which helped put us at ease, and was extremely helpful with suggestions and advice throughout the planning process. Christine will meet with you a few weeks in advance of the wedding to run through the day with you down to the minute, so you're completely comfortable with everything. She also called all of our vendors the week of the wedding to touch base, which was a great help to us! You can tell she really loves what she does as she goes above and beyond for all her couples! And although we only worked with him the day of the tasting and the wedding day, Andy the banquet manager was wonderful as well! We highly recommend the Lawn Club - it is the ultimate place to get married!

mmenting on our wedding - about how AMAZING the entire Lawn Club staff was! What’s more, our guests could not stop talking about the food, saying it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. This is not your standard “wedding food.” This is a top-notch, gourmet spread. Go for the pepper-crusted tenderloin appetizer - we heard so many compliments about this one. And the mushroom ravioli pasta is to die for. We added a pasta course, and people who didn’t even like mushrooms loved this dish. And Christine Brush. She was key in executing our day and I can’t say enough good things about her. We ran into a transportation issue when our contracted bus didn’t show up for the day. She helped us remain calm and at the end of the night, helped coordinate Ubers for anyone who needed to get back to the hotel. And on top of that, when we were back at the hotel for our ‘after party,’ Christine stopped by on her way home to drop off a few items that we had left at the Lawn Club. Christine went above and beyond that day and we are so happy to have worked with her and the entire staff. If you want a breathtaking building in the New Haven area, with the best staff and food, definitely make a visit to the Lawn Club.

ay it was the best singular decision we made during the entire wedding planning process is an exercise in understatement. What makes the NHLC special: - It’s not a wedding factory. Yours is the only wedding there that day, and the staff there is dedicated to making it as special as possible. - The wedding coordinator, Christine Brush, is simply fantastic. No detail is overlooked. Anything that goes wrong will be made right to the greatest extent possible. She has more than a decade of experience in weddings, and it shows in her calm, cool professionalism and her guidance in bringing your vision to reality. - They will make your wedding your own. If you have special requests, a theme, or something out of the ordinary (we got married with the seating arranged in a circle around us in the ballroom), they will do their best to make it happen. In fact, I think they quite enjoy it! - Speaking of the venue, it’s magnificent. If you’re not into brick backgrounds for pictures, Yale, and its stunning architecture, is minutes away. The ballroom is old-style beautiful, and with the right up-lighting, itransforms to match your color palette. Best of all – no 1980s carpets you see at most venues! - The food is to die for. Most people don’t remember the food they ate at a wedding. Trust me, most of them will remember the cuisine here. - They carefully maintain their preferred vendor list. The ones we chose were all top-notch and did a fantastic job (HK Photography, Correlation, Vantage Point Films, JCakes, Candi’s Floral Designs). My understanding is everyone on that list is fantastic. I could go on, but this is already getting long-winded. Best of luck on finding your venue and do yourself a favor – check NHLC out!

NHLC has one wedding a day and allows the bride (and groom) to get ready there all day. I was there with my bridesmaids from 8 am until going to the church at 3 pm. It made the day so much more exciting. Seeing everything setting up, flowers coming in, etc. As a bride, I truly loved this and was happy my bridesmaids got the first peek with me. The bridal suite is huge, making the morning so comfortable. We kept blowing the fuses while getting ready and the staff kept resetting the power for us with a smile. All the staff checked on us all morning, asking to help or bring anything. The night was flawless. My husband and I felt such at ease with everyone there. The staff was just as incredible from the bartenders, waiters, literally everyone. You can tell everyone that works here truly loves their job and has a passion for it. We can't thank you all enough!

Even when I was running out of time (and patience) to finish up favors, Christine spent an afternoon to help me get the job done quickly! It was such a relief and she did me the biggest favor! The building itself is breathtaking. We did visit two other venues before this one and I have to say one of the major selling points for us is that we would be the only wedding that day. They also provide a list of some of the best vendors in the area. The tasting was exceptional for us because it gave us a chance to find all of the vendors we had not yet found. Particularly, our florist, music/entertainment, photobooth, ceremony music, etc. The food was amazing. Every time we see someone for the first time since the wedding they tell us how much they loved the food. But my favorite compliments are the ones about the staff. From the bartenders to the waiters, our guests were amazed at (again) the speed and professionalism staff showed to everything. They were all so warm and inviting.

It is one of the most gorgeous, timeless and classic venues I have seen, and this isn’t just my biased opinion – our guests said the same thing! Prior to our wedding, the tasting we attended was so well done and mocked an actual wedding, which gave us a great idea of what our day would look like. When our big day came, the setup, service, food and the way Christine and Daniella made our vision come to fruition went above and beyond our expectations. Our guests are still raving about the service and the food. The timing of each course was perfectly planned – not too rushed, but totally efficient as Christine and Daniella knew we wanted as much time on the dance floor as possible. My husband and I felt like we were in great hands during the entire process, and this is invaluable seeing as there are so many moving parts and things to keep track of during the wedding planning process. I 110% highly recommend the New Haven Lawn Club to any bride and groom looking for a venue with a timeless feel that isn’t just another wedding factory.
