Our venue hosts weddings up to 150 guests mostly outdoors. We typically host the ceremony in the front garden under the historic live oak overlooking the Manatee River followed by a reception in the back courtyard. The venue offers ceremony chairs, chairs & tables for the reception, extra buffet tables, cocktail tables, indoor reception room, outdoor living room with fire place, covered porch, catering station, etc...
The Bed & Breakfast offers 6 guest rooms so we can accommodate 12 guests. For additional accommodations we work with 3 different hotels nearby which are located in Bradenton. A full European style breakfast is included in an overnight stay. The B&B stays entirely private during the whole weekend.
We have different wedding packages to offer to our couples. Our most popular package is called the Day of Package. This package only includes the venue for the day no overnight stay. In case you would like to stay overnight we do offer 3 other packages with overnight stays. Discount is offered for weekdays weddings (Monday through Thursday or on a Sunday afternoon).
Our venue does not offer food. For every event we host we work with different caterers from the area. A list of recommended caterers is available upon request. We also allow to bring in your own alchohol on the premises.

Best venue!
Amazing experience!!!!!
Everything about this venue is Dreamy!
We celebrated our first New Year’s Eve as a couple at the Bed and Breakfast and when we got engaged May of 2021, their venue was at the top of our list. In 6 very fast months we planned a wedding! Throughout the planning process Mieke and Wim were extremely responsive, answered all our questions and gave vendor recommendations. Their customer service was invaluable.
On 1/15/2022 my husband and I said “we do” at the Bed & Breakfast, all our expectations were exceeded, it truly was a dream! Since our wedding we have enjoyed wine pairing dinners at their Bed and Breakfast, we hope to book a stay one evening and have had many phenomenal dinners at their restaurant Château 13, we are looking forward to celebrating our first wedding anniversary at their restaurant next weekend! Our wedding guests enjoyed their experience so much they’ve also been back to the Bed and Breakfast as well as their restaurant.
Mieke and Wim’s hospitality is top notch, they are now part of our family! We can’t thank them enough!

I can't put into words how amazing this Bed and Breakfast is. Wim and Meike are hands down the nicest, most accommodating hosts I have ever met, and the breakfast they made us in the morning was incredible! The house is stunning and the atmosphere is so calming. I could not have picked a better place to have our wedding and I am so happy I will have these memories forever!
