Whether you're looking for an intimate wedding venue for a small group of guests or a pool paradise for a momentous birthday bash, bachelorettes, and stag dos, Giggster has a wide selection of estates with gardens to celebrate your special day the way you want to.
Mansion Wedding Venues – Outdoor Events. Large estates are ideal for al fresco gatherings and dancing under the stars. Schedule lawn games for your kid's birthday party, movie nights for intimate bachelorettes, or barbecue pool parties for stag dos.
Stately Estates – Weddings. Grand manors have the beauty, surroundings, and interior to host an unforgettable wedding ceremony and reception. They create the perfect canvas for amazing wedding photographs.
Castles – Rehearsal Dinners. Gather your favorite crowd and treat them to a pre-wedding retreat in a French-inspired castle boasting opulence and elegance at every corner. Give your guests a one-of-a-kind experience with butler service, but be careful not to go over the top. This is just a prelude to the big day.
Beachfront Properties – Corporate Retreats. If you want a special way to show your gratitude to the team, they will surely enjoy a weekend at a beachfront property with pools and private beach access. Plan interactive outdoor activities to bring your team closer together.
Townhouses – Bridal Showers. Your sister or bestie deserves to be in the highlight and treated like a princess, even for a few hours. Plan a festive pre-wedding soiree for the bride-to-be that reflects her style. Perhaps a luxurious afternoon tea in the beautifully manicured gardens is in order? Or is a DJ and a loud party what she fancies better?
Treat a mansion like you would approach any venue. It's a blank canvas that needs your personalized touch, but the challenge is finding the right canvas. Giggster has event and wedding venues in many cities, and here is a list of essentials to help you pick the best setting for your wedding day. Then get ready for easy wedding planning!
Does the mansion wedding venue have ample parking space? People arriving at a wedding or a corporate function normally like to park their cars nearby. Does your venue have on-site parking or other solutions? How many guests are arriving by car? Discuss parking options with the chosen mansion venue. The last thing you want is for female guests to walk acres of land in high heels to get to the party.
Can you decorate the wedding venue? Most mansions on Giggster are already set up for special occasions, but if you want to add a personal touch, you should check with the owner about decorations. Candles could be a safety hazard due to the open flames.
Will you require extra staff? Large-scale mansion weddings may need several servers and staff to ensure everyone is well taken care of and your day runs smoothly. If your chosen venue doesn't have in-house staff and can't accommodate you, hire an event planner and wedding vendors.
For many, a mansion wedding venue is a dream setting, but knowing about the setbacks may help you overcome the challenges faster and improve the overall experience.
Advantages
Mansion wedding venues have a home atmosphere, making them perfect for corporate and social events and photo and video shoots.
A mansion wedding venue is ideal for couples interested in controlling every aspect of their big day. It has room for creating different layouts for varied activities.
Mansions are ideal for accommodating family members traveling from out of town or guests who prefer not to drive after a night of toasting the happy couple.
Disadvantages
The reality is that stately homes may have higher rental fees, but Giggster can connect you with affordable wedding venues.
Parking is often an issue in residential areas; a valet company can help you handle the parking arrangements.
You can hire a private chef or caterer or prepare your meals. The problem is running out of food and drinks, especially if you are staying overnight.
Planning the perfect event goes beyond finding an exquisite mansion, although that'll certainly give you a kickstart. As wedding venues, estates may need more work, from decorating to coordinating service delivery from different vendors. For events, work functions, or influencer photo shoots, mansions make a memorable setting, too.
Make a Guest List – Yes, some mansion venues are large and can accommodate crowds, but there still might be a limit to the number of guests they can comfortably accommodate. For your nuptials, maybe you want to cut costs or know who can make it for your big day. Make a guest list and send invites with RSVP inserts at least four weeks before.
Find the Perfect Mansion – No two mansions are alike, so you must thoroughly search for the one that matches your style and fits your budget. Is the venue accessible? Is there enough space? Consider which aspects are crucial before booking the space, whether it's where you are marrying or as a reception space afterward.
Choose a Theme – A wedding theme will set the tone for your special occasion. Maybe you are going for an elegant wedding ceremony or a full-blown winter wonderland birthday party theme. You have so many options, and a majestic mansion will add to the vibe you're looking for.
A gorgeous mansion venue on the Giggster app starts at only $50/hour, allowing you to celebrate in style without breaking the bank.
Take advantage of packages and deals.
You'd be surprised, but some mansion venues have essentials like catering, in-house staff, chefs, linens, and more under one roof, helping you save from the start. Check with the chosen estate to see if they offer packages, decor, or valet services to reduce costs even more.
Limit the bar.
Drinks and food can keep the party mood up but will quickly drain your budget if you are not careful. Limit the alcoholic beverages to a small selection of beer and wine, or have a few cocktails for a varied selection. Make pitchers of punch if you want to stretch your budget even further.
Keep decor to a minimum.
A historic landmark with dreamy indoor and outdoor doesn't need a makeover. Leave it to the intricate details of the venue to impress the guests. Your favorite flowers around the venue will enhance the ambiance and won't cost an arm and a leg.
