Stone Garden was the perfect venue for our wedding. They were so easy to communicate with - Kristen immediately understood my vision and made it come to life. The venue itself is so beautiful and peaceful, and they put so much energy into making this the perfect day. They were incredibly reliable and easy to work with, and Kristen really kept me on track throughout the planning process. I'm not the best at making timely decisions, but Kristen was there to guide me every step of the way. I couldn't have done it without their support, and I'm so grateful to have had Stone Garden as our wedding venue.

The Crane Estate 
Ipswich, MA
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Celebrate your special day amidst some of the most spectacular scenery in the Northeast. The 2,100-acre Crane Estate is an unforgettable destination for your special event with its winding salt marshes, miles of barrier beach, and beautiful hilltop mansion. Chicago industrialist Richard T. Crane, Jr. first purchased the land that would become The Crane Estate in 1910. Crane was captivated by the beautiful landscape, and over the next two decades worked with some of America's leading architects and landscape architects to shape his summer retreat, sited with hilltop vistas of the Atlantic in an area of the property known as Castle Hill. In 1928, Castle Hill was crowned with a 59-room Stuart-style mansion designed by world-renowned architect David Adler. Today, the Crane family mansion is known as The Great House on The Crane Estate and is protected, along with the rest of Castle Hill, as a 165-acre National Historic Landmark.

We had a wonderful experience at Black Swan. All staff were friendly and helpful, and Donna is such a pleasure to work with. She handled our 2-day cultural wedding celebration with calm and professionalism, and had no issue with a number of things that were important to us, like bringing in a horse for a baraat and including Indian catering. We got compliments all weekend about how smoothly everything unfolded. BSCC also happens to be one of the slightly more affordable venues on the North Shore, but the views are stunning! I really can't recommend this place enough.
