Mankin Mansion Wedding & Event Estate
(148)
Award Winning Landmark Estate
Mankin Mansion provides a stunning backdrop for your most important day of all...your wedding day! With formal English gardens, beautifully manicured grounds, and a one-of-a-kind Historic Mansion, you, your family, and your friends will cherish time spent creating memories that will last a lifetime!
Your Wedding Ceremony will be held in your choice of our lush
European Gallery or below our 100-year-old Sycamore Tree, our Reception Pavilion is timelessly decorated, creating a lovely setting for your own wonderful and unique touches. If you are looking for a magical space more extraordinary than a hotel ballroom, a banquet facility, or a country club, let Mankin Mansion whisk you away for a calm and heart-warming experience!
One of the things we love most at the Mansion is creating a wedding day that truly reflects who you are, where you come from, and the blending of two unique worlds. Sydney and Arjun’s celebration was a beautiful fusion of cultures, a perfect reflection of their love story - and the ultimate dress changes! ♥️

Introducing…
The Mankin Mansion Office Team!✨
Meet Aaron, our Director of Operations, and Hailey, our Office Manager! They are the backbone of our venue, handling all maintenance and logistics with precision.
Our Planning Team – Gillian, Hana, and Kathleen – are the heart and soul of our operations🤍 They are more than just venue coordinators; they are dedicated planners who stay with you from the moment you book until you drive off in a luxury getaway car, and sometimes even beyond😉
What sets us apart from a typical venue coordinator?
While the planning team is attached to the venue, we not only keep the venue in mind but also keep our couples best interest in mind! For example, our couples will bring us a Pinterest board of ideas, TikTok ideas, or family traditions. With the venue logistics, our planning team will then execute that idea so our couples still get exactly what they want to capture their vision in a seamless way!
A venue coordinator typically meets with you once or twice before the wedding to confirm details, but they often don’t handle vendor facilitation or vision ex*****on. Our planning team, however, offers continuous support through a series of meetings, vendor recommendations, confirmations and logistics to ensure a flawless timeline. We coordinate your entire rehearsal and wedding day, from checking you in and setting up decor to managing vendors and executing the timeline activities. We even break down the decor at the end of the night!
Our planning team operates as a cohesive unit. You not only get a dedicated planner on your wedding day but also a team of assistants who support each other seamlessly. With our extensive experience and intimate knowledge of the venue, we ensure your wedding is stress-free and beautifully executed, time and time again!

Gillian and Clay's wedding was pure cinematic magic, where Gillian's stunning red dress and flowing cape met Clay's fun and eclectic jacket in a dazzling dance of colors. The vibrant blooms were the supporting cast to a vision that perfectly captured the essence of their personalities, creating a momentous occasion that will forever be etched in the hearts of all of us in attendance. We could post about this wedding forever, and we're just so happy to see our girl enjoying her newlywed bliss! ❤️

This , we wanted to highlight some of the beautiful bouquets and arrangements we've gotten to see this wedding season! We are very thankful to work with some of the best florists around - their work is so important and the reason why so many weddings have so much vibrance and color! From bud vases, to aisle markers, to table-top arrangements, to silk florals, we love them all!

Celebrate the end of the night and the beginning of your marriage with Fireworks at Historic Mankin Mansion!!!!
Today we celebrate so many blessings...this week 13 years ago, we cast the winning bid to save a crumbling and terribly neglected historic landmark from ruin. After restoring more than 10,000 square feet, 11 years ago, we eagerly opened the doors of Historic Mankin Mansion Wedding Resort. Countless weddings later, we are still in awe and truly humbled by what this property means to so many. It is a tremendous gift to play a role in celebrating love and bringing joy to so many families from all over the world. Words cannot express our heartfelt gratitude for our family, friends, clients, and colleagues who have cheered us along every step of the way. We are blessed beyond measure to call this magical little Mansion home 🥂
