From the reviews

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! There is not more to say. This 100 year old castle is great place to stay. Awesome views of the surrounding area. Large enough to house large groups. Plenty of area to let friends and family spread out. Highly recommended. You must remember this is a 100 year old building. It has character.

★★★★★ — Scott, Jan 2025

We just had the most magical wedding at Wrensmoor. The beauty and unique character of Wrensmoor is unparalleled. And the magic continued into the wee hours as the entire wedding party and close friends spent the night. Reagan the host was awesome and Chef Tiffany and her crew served up the tastiest food.

★★★★★ — Cyndy, Sep 2023

I had the honor of working at the magnificent Wrensmoor Castle. The team was incredibly friendly and cooperative throughout the entire planning process, especially when we had a couple of changes. And the catering services they provided? Absolutely top-notch!

★★★★★ — Lily, May 2024

Spectacular!! I recently had the honor of seeing my daughter marry the love of her life, in a freaking castle, on a hill overlooking the city below. It was a gala on such a grand level that I will never forget staying here, it was indeed magical. Champagne, caviar and chef catered dinners!

Getting married at Wrensmoor 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 — Wrensmoor 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.

Galas & corporate events at Wrensmoor Castle

Reviews and the castle's own info mention galas, corporate events, or private parties at Wrensmoor Castle — castle venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
