Rushmore Estate Wedding

Rushmore Estate is a private wedding venue located on over 50 acres of sprawling greenery in Woodbury New York. The views at Rushmore Estate are unforgettable and courtesy of the surrounding forest. Wedding ceremonies are held on their lush, meticulously manicured lawn. Meanwhile, receptions are held in the ballroom. The ballroom is constructed of a Colonial facade which was built in the early 1900s. Certainly, choosing to plan a wedding at Rushmore Estate means making the decision to create an enchanting day.

Located just 45 minutes outside of Manhattan, Rushmore Estate provides easy access to couples who wish to plan their wedding away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Additionally, the venue provides the option for a three-day wedding experience with overnight guest suites on site. This allows you to host your rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, after-party, and morning-after brunch, all in one particularly exquisite location. However, Rushmore Estate also provides the flexibility for their couples to choose a private weekend wedding full of events and merriment or a sole day of experience.

Furthermore, it is highly recommended to host your wedding ceremony on their grounds. Hosting both of your events in one location allows a seamless experience for you and your guests. Providing ample time to explore their grounds at a relaxed pace for your wedding photography experience. Additionally, their pricing structure is built to include access to the ceremony space as well as their Colonial-style ballroom for your reception.

Moreover, Rushmore Estate wedding venue provides exclusive use to their couples. This ensures that your event is the only one taking place on your chosen day. Allowing you to fully bask in the amenities provided. Correspondingly, some of the magnificent amenities available on your wedding day include use of the fireplace in the ballroom (the venue is happy to build a fire for you & your guests), a bonfire by the lake, a stone patio loggia with an additional fireplace, and a walking trail. Lakeside amenities and activities are also available to those who wish to host a full weekend of events.

Undoubtedly, Rushmore Estate provides its couples with a beautifully resplendent wedding day experience. But, as a wedding photographer, who has previously photographed this space, my adoration for this wedding venue lies in the magnificent detail, romantic elegance, and the hauntingly beautiful colonial woodwork seen throughout the interior of the estate. Access to the grounds, ballroom, library, and interior breakout spaces of the estate allows your wedding photography to flourish with artistic vision while your unique love story drives the narrative.

The wedding featured below is an editorial. It was designed to inspire with details that are soft and romantic with an air of elegance. The atmosphere created was dreamt up to showcase a well-planned wedding at Rushmore Estate. Tall hurricane votives were used to house softly lit candles with lush floral arrangements in creamy tones accenting guests’ seating. A crisp color palette of green, black, and white provides a breath of fresh air which creates a modern yet romantic wedding day experience.
