Nestled in your own private wooded oasis on the Hudson River, you and your guests will enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Following several generations of private affairs at our home, we are thrilled to open our estate to a limited list of events. Southwood is not your typical wedding venue – we strive to help you celebrate your joyous occasion based on your unique desires as a couple. We’re happy to work with you to realize your dream wedding befitting your particular aesthetic and budget. Weddings can range from funky farm organic to a bohemian escape to full estate elegance – the options are truly endless.

✨ Planning Your Perfect Event? We've Got You! ✨ Looking for a seamless, no-stress vibe for your ceremony? We’re all about making it easy—ceremonies are on the house! 🎉 Keep the party going with music until 11 pm (yep, gotta respect those town rules) and wrap up your event on time, but don’t worry—we’ve got after-party options in Hudson or Rhinebeck! 🌃 Bars stay open ‘til 3 am, and food’s served ‘til 1 am, so you can keep the energy high. 🍕🍸 Bonus: Get rehearsal time the day before AND clean-up time the morning after. More time to make it perfect, less stress on the big day. ✨ We don’t do catering, but no sweat—we’ve got a lineup of awesome vendors we recommend. Plus, we require a wedding coordinator (because organization = peace of mind) and wedding insurance to keep things covered. ✅ Let’s make your event one for the books! 📖

The Caboose is the historic long barn located right next to our sister restaurant, Kitty’s, right across from the river in Hudson, NY. Soon, it will be a dynamic space with a wine shop and culinary native garden, as well as a stunning 3500 square foot event space. We have worked with a team of ecologically-centered architects and designers to make a space that is as beautiful as it is environmentally friendly.

Created by pioneering artist and professor Harvey Fite, Opus 40 is a world-famous sculpture park and museum with nearly 60 acres of meadows, forested paths and bluestone quarries — including 6.5 acres of earthwork sculpture — in the heart of the Hudson Valley. We welcome guests from April through November, and host live music and theatrical performances — all with the majestic Catskill Mountains as the backdrop. “In a culture of disposability,” notes David Wallis in The New York Times, not only does Opus 40 constitute “what Architectural Digest described as one of ‘the most beguiling works of art on the entire continent,’ but stands as a monument to discipline and hard work.” Considered by many to be the Stonehenge of North America, Opus 40 welcomes more than 20,000 visitors each year. Our “spectacular stone monument” (VICE) serves as a popular site for destination weddings, as well as photo shoots for the likes of Barneys NY, VOGUE, Nylon and famed photographer Nigel Barker.
