We are so glad we picked Westbury Manor for our June wedding! The grounds were absolutely beautiful, the food was great, and everyone had a wonderful time. Special shout-out to my bridal attendant, Susan, who was so calm, cool, and collected, and there for me whenever I needed her. She had the perfect energy for what could be a hectic day. I also highly recommend using Gary, the in-house florist; he did a phenomenal job with the floral arrangements and my bouquet. Everyone at Westbury Manor is so professional and easy to work with. If you like beautiful gardens and historic manor vibes, Westbury Manor is the place for you.

Everything was great! The staff was amazing and so easy to work with at every point in the process. No one was ever pushy or anything like that. Our maitre d Matt was an absolute gem and my bridal attendant Emma was an absolute angel. Loved the option to get married inside or out. We wanted outside but it was windy and cold so we got married inside in front of the beautiful fire place. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. ️

I had my wedding on 7/15/23 at Bourne Mansion and I don’t think I could say more glowing things about the entire experience. From the second we sat down the Miriam, we knew that this was the venue. She was beyond helpful and available for all of our questions big or small from the start. She had amazing suggestions and wonderful vendor choices. I don’t think our wedding would have been the same if we didn’t listen to almost everything she told us to do. Steve was also incredible from our meeting the week prior to the day of, he was right there for anything we needed and was like a drill sergeant making sure everything went on time which was much appreciated. There was a chance that there would have been rain which would have ruined our firework show and Steve made sure that the kitchen rushed the food out so we could get the show started before anything happened. All our guests have raved about the food and how there was enough to feed a small army. As anyone who gets married knows me and my husband weren’t able to indulge in everything but what we ate was AMAZING and I literally can’t stop thinking about the sushi. I could go on and on about how Miriam, Steve and the entire Bourne staff made our night incredible!! I highly recommend choosing Bourne for your wedding!
