We had our wedding on 6/1/24 and look back on this day with so much joy, fondness, and gratitude. Working with Mary, George, and Susan was a true pleasure and we felt so comfortable with them and trusted them fully. Our ceremony was beautiful and held outdoors. The landscape and vibrant colors are truly stunning. A peacock even made an appearance during the first look outdoors! The grounds are absolutely stunning (especially in late Spring) and provide so many opportunities for amazing photos (fountain, bridge, stairs, courtyard). The venue itself is beautiful and spacious. The Victorian aesthetic enhances the beauty and romantic charm. The dance floor was a great size and the room fit our 120 guests very comfortably. The reception room is beautifully decorated, as well as the tables. The windows (with option to close curtains) provide great natural light you are having a daytime wedding. The service at Westbury Manor was outstanding from the day 1. All of our guests raved about the food at cocktail hour and could not believe they could choose among seven options for dinner. People kept saying how this was the best food they have had at a wedding and we can attest to this. Westbury Manor and their amazing staff helped make our day perfect and unforgettable. We highly recommend having your wedding here without reservation!

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. ️

We got married 1/5/25 but had been working with Miriam for probably a year and a half before our big day. She was always so personable with us a treated us like family. Words cannot describe the love and care we felt from Jake, our maître D and Samantha, our bridal attendant, on our wedding day. We were cared for tediously and effortlessly. We felt like at ease, happy and totally relaxed. I needed Samantha and didn’t even know it, I am forever indebted to her - she could not have been more attentive and wonderful. Comforting me, assuring me, getting me where I need to be and when. So friendly, kind and amazing. Thank god for Jake. He is so special and we’re so lucky we got him as our maître D. He deems himself as a “yes man” and he is not lying. Anything you could have ever wanted from him, he’d deliver. We wanted for nothing, had wonderful direction from him all night and he took care of EVERYTHING!  The night was flawless, amazing, perfect and all we could have ever hoped for. The staff at Bourne is unmatched, we made the right choice with this venue. Guests will be in awe of the venue and talk about the food for years to come. I wish I could do it all again. Thank you Bourne mansion & staff for the best night of our lives! I don’t have all my pics back yet!
