The Annesdale Mansion is an 1850s Italianate villa that combines elements of European romantic architecture with vintage Southern charm. Located in the Annesdale Snowden Historic District in midtown Memphis, Annesdale promises to be an unforgettable setting for your wedding or event.

With indoor and outdoor event space and views that include beautiful stately oak trees and a lush manicured lawn, there are multiple options for the various parts of a bride’s big day at the Junior League. Our historic building is the ideal location to host our wedding, with its immaculate marble, intricate stonework and Grecian columns deliver romance. The CRC provides the perfect ambiance for events of all types and sizes, no matter how formal or informal. The building was constructed from 1919-1921, as a home for Mr. C. R. Boyce, a successful Memphis cotton buyer. The interior beauty includes a marvelous mixture of form and detail in various cornices, moldings and trim. The home was a residence until 1979, when it was renovated as offices for a local company. In 1991, the Junior League of Memphis purchased the property, which is now on the National Register of Historic Places.

Dixon Gallery and Gardens offers the perfect backdrop for your big day, no matter the time of year. Two beautiful garden spaces--the Bowlin Stage and the South Lawn--are offered for wedding ceremonies, and the Hughes Pavilion, a beautiful brick building with floor-to-ceiling windows and outdoor patio space, is offered for receptions and rehearsal dinners. Classic architecture, lush greenery, and a neutral palette offer a beautiful setting that can be easily personalized to make the space truly yours. (Cover photos courtesy of Taylor Square Photography)
