Located in Villanova, Pennsylvania, The Willows is an elegant mansion venue that hosts weddings. Set in a scenic park on Philadelphia's Main Line, this historic estate sits high atop a hill overlooking the breathtaking grounds of Willows Park Preserve with its rolling hills, ponds, and trees. Couples who choose to celebrate their day here can enjoy exclusive use of the mansion and its surrounding patios, courtyards, stone walls, and gardens.

The Willows mansion is a beautiful example of Spanish Revival-style architecture. The exterior features a red-tiled roof, smooth plastered walls, wrought-iron balconies, and a Spanish-style courtyard. Inside the mansion there is a gracious foyer, dining room and paneled library. The solarium, with Italian marble terrazzo floor and glass doors, opens onto a curved terrace with a view of the idyllic and serene surroundings. The venue can host up to 150 guests for special occasions, with outdoor dining and dancing taking place beneath a white tent.

Best of the Best

We got married at The Willows in October of 2024 and from start to finish the experience was superb. Peachtree makes every client feel as if they are the only ones in the world and it was nothing short of a joy to work with them. They are the definition of above and beyond. Beautiful venue and a rockstar team!

Amazing wedding!

Me and my husband just hosted our wedding at the Willows on September 27th! We toured a few venues before this one but as soon as we saw the willows we fell in love. The staff and service were amazing as well as all the food. Our coordinator Micah was so helpful in the planning process with all of our questions. I could not recommend this venue/caterer more!
