Chateau Mariposa is a micro-wedding venue (hosts up to 50 guests) located in Brooksville, Florida. This beautifully-appointed property is a Mediterranean-style country home set on two and a half wooded acres. A peaceful oasis that is newly renovated for guests and close to contemporary amenities, these inviting premises make a wonderful backdrop for joyful festivities.

Facilities and Capacity

Chateau Mariposa is surrounded by pastoral countryside with both farm animals and local wildlife, along with the beauty of spring-fed waters. Manatees are likely in these springs from November through April, as the waters remain at a constant 72-74 degrees. The gardens have beautiful blooms at all times of the year, and a custom-crafted pergola proudly stands in the midst of the backyard area. This signature feature of the property has been handcrafted from towering pines harvested on the property and makes a stunning centerpiece for a couple's special celebration. Lovebirds can exchange their vows in this magnificent setting that is truly meaningful. Inside the country home, rich flooring and heavy, dark wood beams balance and ground the event space. Careful attention to detail is clear in the soft textures, light-filled spaces, and airy ambience, inviting couples and their loved ones to share a magical experience.

Services Offered

We find, more often than not, that Chateau Mariposa is the place the bride goes to BEFORE the place she goes to, to say I DO! Check out "Mariposa Moments" for the Girls, Glitz & Glam moments before the big day! Of course, we host wedding ceremonies, elopements and receptions for up to 50 guests. These premises also facilitate other celebrations such as engagement parties, showers, and rehearsal dinners. The staff offers event cleanup and the use of on-site accommodations, get-ready rooms, WiFi, and outside vendors. Additionally, event rental items are available, including chairs, tables, linens, drapery, and lighting.

Chateau Mariposa Intimate Wedding

I first visited Chateau Mariposa as a bridesmaid for a friend’s wedding. I loved it so much I put down a deposit to get married here in 2026.
This is the perfect venue for an intimate micro wedding with a beautiful nature backdrop.
The house is stunning and provided the most picturesque setting from start to finish.
Carmen is so wonderful and kind. She was so attentive to our needs and was always accessible through the planning process.

Dream Micro Wedding at Chateau Mariposa

Chateau Mariposa is an absolute gem — such a beautiful and unique find that was perfect for our intimate micro wedding. From the moment we arrived, we knew this home was something special!

The home itself is stunning and served as the perfect backdrop for our first look photos. My bridesmaids and I stayed at the property beforehand, and getting ready in such a well-lit, thoughtfully designed space made the whole experience feel even more special. The natural lighting throughout the home was amazing — everything felt calm, cozy, and picturesque.

Our ceremony took place under the pergola, which was a gorgeous backdrop for our ceremony. Every corner of Chateau Mariposa has something to offer, whether it’s for photos, relaxing, or making memories.

But what truly made our experience unforgettable was our host and venue owner, Carmen. She was a gift in every sense of the word — so kind, helpful, and incredibly thoughtful. From the planning process to the day of the event, she went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly and that we felt supported throughout.

If you’re looking for a special place to host a small wedding or celebration, Chateau Mariposa is it. I couldn’t imagine a more perfect setting or a more wonderful host.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
