About
The Historic Bates Mansion is a vintage wedding venue situated in Tucson, Arizona. Owned and operated by husband-and-wife duo David and Allie Lazarus, this enchanting property provides celebrations of all shapes and sizes with a rustic hacienda-inspired backdrop. The mansion was once occupied by businessman C.T.R Bates and was the meeting place for the prestigious local institution, the Mountain Oyster Club. David and Allie first fell in love with it when looking for a venue to host their own wedding festivities. Upon purchasing the property, they began redesigning it to provide private events with an inviting old-pueblo-style atmosphere right in the heart of downtown Tucson. It has been fully renovated for a feeling of both comfort and convenience and features inviting event spaces, invaluable amenities, an in-house caterer, and more.

-a random quote off the internet
But it really is true. David and Allie Lazarus started the marriage and their business journey together at the Historic Bates Mansion. Allie loved the venue so much she dragged David into starting their our special wedding and event space at the Bates. David with a Sales & Marketing Background & Allie with her amazing coordination skills and personality bring you a high level of customer service and trust. Let us handle the big stuff so all you have to do in the end is say "I DO."
