About

Dresser Mansion is a wedding venue located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Built in 1919 for oil magnate Carl Dresser and his wife, Pauline, this century-old building blends style and practicality. Its gorgeous interiors were dreamt up with parties and entertainment in mind, making it the perfect spot for an incredible wedding celebration. The property was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2001, and the passage of time continues to enhance its splendor. Today, the mansion is delighted to welcome couples wishing to celebrate their love in elegance and comfort.

Facilities and Capacity

Dresser Mansion can accommodate up to 225 guests for unforgettable wedding celebrations. The space is also perfect for intimate gatherings, so no matter the size of your guest list, it’s a beautiful setting for a wedding. The wedding party can enjoy the entire mansion, from the pretty courtyard to the atmospheric library. Sound systems are present throughout the space, allowing couples to add the perfect musical backdrop to this elegant property. Whether you want an indoor ceremony or reception in the spacious ballroom or an open-airy celebration on the lush green lawn, there’s something for every taste. Spacious get-ready rooms and a catering kitchen are also available for your convenience. Pauline Dresser drew her decorative inspiration from her tour of Europe, and the mansion is a slice of continental elegance in the center of Tulsa. Italian artisans stuccoed the property’s exterior walls, and its interior walls were textured and glazed by master craftspeople to resemble travertine marble. Today, the venue is proud to uphold the value that Pauline placed on elegance and comfort. The property’s original beauty is assiduously maintained, and the property’s team of expert staff is committed to providing exceptional service.

Services Offered

Dresser Mansion offers a range of services to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for every client. When the special day arrives, couples can prepare for the celebrations in private quarters for each nearlywed. The team sets up tables and chairs before guests arrive, and to-be-weds can work with the caterer of their choice for a truly unique event. A tent can cover the brick patio, so outdoor celebrations are possible no matter the weather.

A Fairytale Wedding Venue

I absolutely loved the Dresser Mansion! I loved the house, the grounds, the staff (Charlie) and the various vendors. My whole experience at the house made for a beautiful fairytale wedding. It is a memory that I will hold onto for the rest of my life. The house is a beautiful historical landmark of Tulsa. It comes with remarkable craftsmanship, and interior and exterior beauty. It is ripe with stories of the past owners, parties, and events. It is so special to know that now, my own special event adds to the rich history of the home. My guests loved exploring the home, and hearing about how it was built in the early 20th century, the stories of the wood ceilings coming from King George V's forest, the Portuguese tiles of the sun room, and the velvet handrail for Mrs. Dresser... I could go on. But Charlie was always so kind and gracious. He even let my husband and I have the house early on our wedding day, as he worked to set up tables, and hose down driveways, etc. He was always very communicative and responsive to our correspondence. And he put us into contact with amazing vendors that he and the venue work with on an ongoing basis. I think everything came together as well as it did because Charlie cares about the events he holds at the mansion. The caliber of vendors are exceptional. They were amazing. I do not have one complaint amongst them all. My guests keep telling me "it was like a fairytale, " "it was beautiful", "it was peaceful"... and that's what the house was. I truly am so thankful for the opportunity to host my wedding at the Dresser Mansion. It was truly memorable!

The Dresser Mansion is our favourite wedding venue in Tulsa, OK! Charlie and Bethany are so nice and easy to work with. You don't need to do much to have a fairytale wedding here. I love the old world feel and the teal bride's room. You won't regret getting married here. The outdoor courtyard allows you to have a pretty garden ceremony while still having access to the Mansion for the party! Our brides love this venue and it's a real treat to photograph!
