Tarrytown, NY, USA < change city >

"Lyndhurst is America's finest Gothic Revival mansion and a remarkable example of the Hudson River's grand and historic estates. Lyndhurst has always been a place to escape the city and to enjoy the spectacular beauty of the Hudson River and the peaceful surroundings of the country."

""This 1838 Gothic Revival mansion was designed by Alexander Jackson Davis for William Paulding, a two-term mayor of New York, and owned after 1880 by railroad magnate Jay Gould. The mansion, located just off Route 9, features 19th and 20th century decorative arts, furnishings and toys. The museum is a property of the National Trust for Historic Preservation." - Historic River Towns of Westchester"

"Beautiful castle and grounds. Open for visits Tuesday through Sunday 10am - 5pm. See website for guided tour schedule."

"Be ready to spend more than you would on decorations for the tent than you would in a 'normal' hall or room - but you cannot beat Lyndhurst as a location - very much like traveling back in time - such a unique venue. The staff is also phenominal - especially Joseph. Food is the best I have ever had at a wedding"

"Fantastic location - the roses are hit or miss depending on the season. All weddings at Lydhurst start at about 6PM or so - which in July was hot, but not unbearable."
