Gorgeous Wedding Venue
We got married at the Graylyn estate in March this year. The day turned out perfect - the wedding in the white garden was beautiful, the food was great and the staff was incredible and very efficient and welcoming.

Courtney helped coordinate with us and did a fantastic job of helping us navigate the details of the venue and answering our many many questions throughout the 6 months of planning. She also helped coordinate with the staff on the day and worked closely with our day-of coordinator. Everything worked like clockwork (or we didn't notice otherwise!).
Graylyn was gorgeous and we loved having our wedding there! If we had to do it again, we'd pick Graylyn in a heartbeat.

Thank You!!
We absolutely loved having our wedding and reception at Graylyn! Laurie was great to work with when we initially booked and she always took the time to answer our questions. From there, we worked with Courtney to coordinate all the details of the day and she was WONDERFUL! She took the time to answer all of our questions throughout the planning process and really listened to our ideas for how we wanted our wedding day to go. She was so responsive, thorough, and detail oriented! Throughout our whole wedding weekend we were so impressed by all of the Graylyn staff as well. Everyone we interacted with was so friendly and welcoming! We could not have imagined a more perfect venue!

I am very happy to say that I got married at the Graylyn Estate! It is such a beautiful estate inside and out with lots of history. The White Garden with the gazebo was absolutely beautiful for my spring wedding and the Atlantis Room was the perfect place for my reception. I do not believe that there could have been a more perfect place to have my wedding. Laurie Connolly and Julia Campbell were so helpful and responsive. The staff went above and beyond our expectations and our wedding would not have been the same without them. Also, I was very happy with the pricing they offer for a Sunday day wedding.
