“The FRANKLIN CASTLE is so beautiful to look at and imagine another time.”

From the reviews

This Castle was extraordinary! Every detail was incredible! If you ever get to stay here, the experience is worth the price! Definitely a castle experience all the way through!

★★★★★ — Ashley, Sep 2023

An awesome venue that has a lot of history. You can tell the new owners have put a lot of work into restoring this Oklahoma treasure.

★★★★★ — Jess, Sep 2018

Attended the first biweekly local market here. The Castle is beautiful. It was a perfect venue to reduce the uncomfortable crowds and noise that occur at the Saturday morning Farmers market. Perfect venue for a wedding. Really glad the community is finally using this local treasure

★★★★★ — Trish, Jun 2024

My fiance and I are getting married here next fall. Mike, the owner, is so incredibly kind and patient. Not to mention how beautiful it is!

Getting married at Franklin Castle

A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Franklin Castle doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
