Location
Jefferson Street Mansion stands proud as part of Historic Benicia's Arsenal as it was once the Executive Officer's Quarters. Built in 1861, the East Coast architects found inspiration in French military heroes such as Napolean and American Revolution General Lafayette and incorporated many elements of the Empire style of design. Once the US Military of the Arsenal was decommissioned in 1960, the mansion moved into private ownership. In 1998, it was purchased by its current owner and restored to its former glory, specifically to be a beautiful setting for special events.
Jefferson Street Mansion has a quiet, secluded feel yet is easily reachable from Napa, Solano, and Contra Costa Counties. This picturesque venue attracts couples wanting a destination wedding as well as couples from Vallejo, Concord, Richmond, San Rafael, San Francisco, Oakland, Alameda, San Leandro, Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, Fairfield, Napa, Sonoma, and Santa Rosa.

Thank you to all the staff for accommodating us! They were so friendly and devoted to making our day special. Everything was incredible and set up as we asked. The mansion is so beautiful and unique. It was the perfect scenery to take photos. Our family and friends had such a good time at our reception. My husband and I were very fortunate to have our event at Jefferson during a time we thought wouldn’t be possible. We loved our experience with Wedgewood Weddings and highly recommend them!

Beautiful venue, easy planning!
The venue was the perfect mix of elegant and beautiful while still being low key and natural, and it was exactly what we were looking for.
The flow of the event was great, with ceremony and reception, and all in all we had an amazing time, and LOVE the photos we got from this venue.
Kristen was our main point of contact, and she was really flexible with us and made the planning process so much easier than if we didn't have her.
