Our wedding planner recommended The Mansion as the place for our intimate, formal wedding. The venue was the perfect size for our 75 guests. Colleen and her staff were the epitome of professionalism. We loved the ability to truly customize our menu. They were even able to accommodate our request for a difficult-to-find South American liquor for our signature drink! Everyone was raving about how incredible the food and service were. We are so glad we chose the Mansion on Delaware Avenue!

The Mansion on Delaware is a beautiful venue and perfect for making your event feel special and intimate! We loved that we had the option to rent out the Mansion and have our guests centered around the venue. The staff was so great during the wedding but also throughout our guests’ stay. We loved chatting with everyone who worked at the Mansion and they all added to our experience. Throughout planning, Colleen was great to talk to and was knowledgeable about the venue and was great at giving advice on menu, best layout, and table styling options. It was also great when she knew some of our vendors from previous events and could give us extra confidence that they knew how to execute their jobs well at the Masion. The food is particularly impressive at the Mansion and we had multiple guests tell us afterwards that they were surprised at how well they were able to execute wedding food (especially fish!). Guests staying at the Mansion also received breakfast which was delicious. We especially wanted our venue to have lodging options and historic features and if either of those or quality food are important to you, I would highly recommend!

Every aspect of our wedding day was amazing there! We had the ceremony and reception on-site, as well had the convenience of our guests being able to stay the night in their guest rooms. Colleen at the Mansion was the absolute best! She coordinated the wedding of our dreams with so much professionalism and kindness. The food was excellent and the service was top notch. Our guests are still talking about how great the food was compared to typical wedding meals. We’ll be recommending the Mansion to anyone looking for a wedding venue!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Mansion on Delaware. Their event coordinator (Colleen) was so easy to work with. Our original venue shut down 5 months before our wedding was supposed to happen so we were in a panic trying to find a back up plan. Colleen was so well organized and she made us feel at ease about our big day. The venue itself is incredible. Such beautiful architecture and so much history associated with the building. We rented the entire mansion for the night of the wedding so we had all 26 guest rooms for our guests to stay in. It was so fun to have all of our friends and family together celebrating in a beautiful venue. We got so many compliments about the food and the service, everything really was top notch. They went above and beyond to make our dream wedding a reality!

I am so impressed with The Mansion on Delaware! Everything was beautiful and better then anything I could have envisioned. The food was excellent and not enough could be said about how awesome the staff was, even the morning after the wedding they still went above and beyond. I highly recommend the mansion, you won't be disappointed!

They did a great job and my guests were impressed -- especially with the food. I just wish there was a bit more organization during the event. I felt that our team member who was the "go to" during the night should have been more involved. We had issues with the family walking down the aisle, cake cutting, etc. It would have been nice to have them more involved in the steps throughout the evening because at times it felt messy.

Patty, Lisa and the MoDA team is absolutely amazing! When I walked into the Salon I gasped at how beautiful everything was. It was even better than I envisioned. The lighting was perfect and the way they had the centerpieces arranged was amazing! I can't tell you how many times people came up to me to tell me that the food was absolutely wonderful. The servers and bartenders were so great and helpful throughout the night, fetching me drinks and putting together a plate of food to have in our room for later at night! The Mansion is the perfect venue if you are looking for an elegant reception where the staff pays attention to every little detail. It was beautiful!
