The Topiary Mansion was a lovely, romantic venue for my daughter's wedding ceremony. The staff was very accommodating and helpful throughout the preparation and during the event. We appreciate how easy it was to work with them during the very short 2 weeks we had to organize the event.

The space is charming. A lovely intimate setting for a small wedding. Lori was extremely helpful and accommodating. She went out of her way to make sure everything worked for us. We had 61 people eating dinner on the first floor. Everyone was very comfortable. We used the buffet for our dessert bar. We did rent our own chairs on the first floor as it provided more seating with a smaller chair. We set the attic up café style using their white chairs. It was very convenient to have a bar both on the third floor and the first floor. You do have to remember this is an old mansion therefore they’re only two bathrooms.

We could not have asked for a more perfect venue for our rehearsal dinner than Topiary Mansion! The space itself is absolutely beautiful, with a layout that worked perfectly for our event and made it so easy for guests to mingle and enjoy themselves. Every detail felt intentional and welcoming, and our family and friends were raving all evening about how much they loved the venue. It was truly an incredible experience, and we are so grateful to the Topiary Mansion team for helping us create such a special and memorable night to kick off our wedding weekend!

We had a birthday party at the Topiary Mansion. All of our guests were charmed by the space and it made us look good in their eyes. Even though we were a little tardy and a little demanding, the staff were very accommodating, professional, and downright helpful. We remain pleased with the experience and recommend The Topiary Mansion to others for events.

I planned a board retreat for our board members and used the Topiary Mansion as our venue on a Sunday. I needed a space with lots of light and openness. This is a lovely old house next to the Topiary Garden downtown that was built in the 1800s. It used to be the first Governor's mansion. The owner Jason was responsive to our needs. We also needed a projector and screen capabilities for presentations, which he had set up and ready to go. The Friday before, I did a walk through of the space to ensure it met our needs. Jason met me and walked me through the use of the projector connecting through Google. This old house is a stunningly beautiful venue and a gorgeous piece of history. It would make a great venue for a wedding reception or business cocktail hour, etc. I highly recommend.

We held a photo shoot at the Topiary Mansion and it turned out very well. The house is historic and the operators have done a nice job decorating the spaces to match, so it worked great as a backdrop for the images. Should also note, Jason and his team were great to work with, very accommodating.
