The Altamont Manor is one of those places that wraps you with the warmth and nostalgia of times long ago. Stepping onto the grounds feels like a journey back to an era of gentility and grace. As someone who was privileged to work here when it was renowned for fine dining, I was moved to see that it is now an impeccable wedding venue.  Restoring a treasure like Altamont Manor while preserving its rich history and maintaining its character is incredibly difficult. It has been done meticulously and with great care. The wrap around porch with the dramatic arched entry, and the gardens of iris and hydrangeas providing the backdrop for once in a lifetime photographs, the views for miles and the gentility of another era all come together as a place where memories are cherished and new ones are lovingly crafted.

We scheduled at the Altamont Manor with Harvey (the owner) back in January and had our pick of the litter for wedding dates. We chose September and couldn’t have been happier. With the Manor you have many options of having the actual wedding ceremony outside, inside or on the deck-area. So if it DID rain, we had 2 backup plans. Luckily the weather was PERFECT and we had it outside down by the little fountain. Theres stairs but also wheelchair access for anyone who needs it. Inside and out… this was important for some of our relatives. Our guest list we tried to keep small-ish at about 46people. The manor could EASILY host double that. Maybe for gigantic 150+ people you may be crowded inside the reception hall, but if its a nice day then people will be outside, inside and all over the place… not just packed into one spot. Harvey is very flexible with all that you require. Not only that but he provides lists of vendors that have worked very well with the manor in the past. The lists are broken up into price ranges which was incredibly helpful for us. We were trying to cut costs as much as possible so ultimately went with a buffet style brunch on a sunday and chose to be our own florists :D But everything worked out well and our food vendor knew this place inside and out. The Manor offers a kitchen for them and generous space inside for setting up eating tables, buffet area and theres room for a dance floor as well. The Altamont Manor comes with a sound system for free, though just 1 very powerful speaker, but will get the dance vibes going. Theres plenty of ability to do sound system hookups or a band to really get things going. Harvey also walked us through the practice the day before the ceremony as well as we used his services for our photography (he offers a discount if you book there and use his photography business). Its like a 1 stop shop between that and his help with the vendors. Made things very easy and a lot less stressful. Honestly, its a 10/10 kind of place. We looked at getting married at other cheaper venues, barns, hotels, but nothing gave that “wedding” vibe or was toooo much work with tooo many vendors to get up and running (im looking at you barns!). This place smashes that wedding vibe out of the park. Wonderful, wonderful experience. Seriously, check out the manor!

I cannot recommend Altamont Manor enough for your wedding venue. Harvey was so incredible to work with and helped us every step of the way. The grounds are just gorgeous and our guests absolutely loved the experience of being on the grounds. We are so thankful to have had our special day here and highly recommend you do the same!

We pulled off the wedding of our dreams at Altamont Manor. The grounds and building are so beautifully maintained and served as the backdrop for gorgeous photos we will treasure forever. Our out-of-town guests were so impressed with the breathtaking views of the mountains and fall foliage. The garden and manor are both accessible for guests with disabilities, which was a big priority for us. Owner Harvey is a true wedding pro -- his thoroughness and attention to detail kept our event going smoothly. His list of approved caterers is excellent. Pricing was incredibly reasonable given the popularity of our location and date. If you're looking for a fairytale celebration in a unique setting with lots of historic charm, this is it!

The Altamont Manor is an absolutely beautiful wedding venue. Harvey and his team are a pleasure to work with and made our day run smoothly. They think of every aspect, and can guide you through the whole process. The garden is absolutely beautiful, and elevates the pictures and guest experience. Its unique design made our wedding so special.

My new husband and I originally chose Altamont Manor for the amount of options for our day that were available. The backyard area as well as the rooms inside were beautiful and came in handy when it was cold and wet outside on our day. Even though the first choice for our ceremony wasn’t available we still had a beautiful day. The owner, coordinator, and photographer Harvey took special care to make sure our day went smoothly despite the weather, and worked with our other vendors to make sure we had everything we wanted. While he was more particular and slightly pushy with some of the details than I needed him to be, it is obvious that he knows how to put together a beautiful day.

The Altamont Manor itself is gorgeous, a mansion-turned-restaurant-turned-wedding-venue that packs a lot of character into every corner. The very wide veranda was great for gathering guests before and after the ceremony, and almost became the ceremony site itself when rainy skies were projected all week. But the clouds cleared up that morning, and we got to do our fully outdoor ceremony on the spacious garden lawn. Inside, the bar/lounge is a cool, quiet room right on the other side of the dance floor, which was plenty wide for all our wedding guests to join a line dance, even with a full band set up on one end and a catered buffet on the other. Step down two steps and you're in a big dining area, which easily accommodated our ~75 guests, with lots of natural light coming in the tall windows overlooking a stunning mountain landscape.

But when you pick the Altamont Manor, what you're really getting is Harvey, a man with 800 weddings under his belt, and a great story to learn from for each. We knew we wanted something different for our wedding, and Harvey turned our wild ideas into practical advice - instead of nudging us back onto the beaten path, he helped us think through the logistics of the wedding we wanted to have. So that band mentioned above - that was the wedding party (including the bride and groom) - and Harvey facilitated the whole ordeal, picking the right place to play from, letting us come by the day before to set up and rehearse, and ushering our guests inside after cocktails so we could surprise them by entering with instruments.

We can't overstate how supportive and flexible Harvey was. When we said we wanted our elderly grandmothers to be the flower girls, Harvey suggested setting up extra seats at the back in case they needed to rest before walking down the aisle. When a friend painted a custom backdrop for our photobooth, Harvey helped us pick where to set it up. When we decided our centerpieces would be origami, Lego, and tissue paper flowers, Harvey rolled with it, and when we said we wanted guests to arrive early to CRAFT those floral centerpieces WITH us, Harvey offered up some folding tables to give them a place to do it. (And when the bride's father surprised us with freshly cut lilacs, Harvey even supplied an emergency vase to display them in!)

Our wedding was incredibly DIY, but instead of "do it yourself", Harvey's attitude was always, "here's how we can make that work". You don't realize this when you get engaged, but bringing dozens of your closest friends and family together for a big party is a big task. Harvey Vlahos helped us break it down into achievable pieces without us abandoning the whimsical weirdness that made it OUR wedding. We truly can't imagine getting married anywhere else.

I booked with Harvey at the Altamont Manor for my daughter's baby shower late April 2025. It was PERFECT! The venue was beautiful, elegant and spacious for the 55 guests in attendance. There is nothing but accolades to Harvey and Donna for making an important event so special.

Altamont Manor is full of charm and unique beauty. We intended to have our ceremony outside by the fountain, but due to rain we held it on the wrap around porch instead. It was a very intimate and sweet ceremony, and the porch was giving "Pride & Prejudice" vibes.
The reception hall is lovely, with big windows which let in a lot of light. We had 60 guests and were more than comfortable using the lower half of the reception space.
Harvey, the owner, is very helpful. He helped make sure everything ran smoothly the day of, and leading up he was very thorough in his communication.
It was a wonderful experience. If you want a magical, slightly whimsical, start to your marriage, I recommend Altamont Manor. I wouldn't change a thing.

Highly recommend the Altamont Manor and would definitely book another venue here.
