When
American financier John S. Phipps asked British-born Margarita
Grace to marry him, he promised her that one day she would have
an English country house and gardens reminiscent of those of her
native England. Today, that house and those gardens -– Old
Westbury Gardens -– are listed on the National Register of
Historic Places, and that love story frames the magnificent
Charles II – style mansion and the 160 acres of formal gardens,
tree-lined walks, lakes and grand
allées
that can be the setting for your wedding or engagement
photographs to chronicle your own love story.
Never fear
the unexpected shower on your wedding day! Westbury House
is a perfect backdrop for spectacular indoor photographs. The
Center Hall with its majestic grand staircase, the
Red
Ballroom with its grand piano, marble fireplace and French
doors overlooking the South Lawn, and the
West Porch,
a glass enclosed salon with a gorgeous view of our legendary
Beech Tree, are perfect complements to your photographic needs.
Your
wedding day is as important to us as is it is to you, so we
limit the number of weddings we allow on site. This will ensure
that you are able to use the areas you choose exclusively! Be
sure to make your reservations as early as possible and no later
than eight weeks prior to your wedding day.
