Stetson Mansion Wedding Info

Info: Historic Elegance

Built as Florida's most modern and elegant mansion in 1886 by John B. Stetson, the famed hat maker, the Stetson Mansion is an architectural masterpiece embellished with rich details including 16 different intricate parquet floor patterns and 10,000 panes of antique window glass. On wedding day our brides step down the grand staircase once graced by the Queen of England, Countess of Portugal and First Lady of the United States. Florida's First Luxury Estate sits on 3 private gated acres and has been enhanced with a multi-million dollar restoration and complete update to today's standards and style. The interior will be thoroughly decorated for Christmas so keep this in mind when planning interior photography around the holidays.

Couples who chose our National Historic Place for their wedding usually have a keen interest in history and provenance. Their curiosity about Florida’s finest example of luxurious 19th century architecture might have attracted them to the mansion for one of our historic or Christmas tours where they were overwhelmed by the beauty of the home and knew this is where they desire to get married.

The Stetson Mansion Estate is available for outdoor weddings with tenting.

The Perfect Day

"My coordinator and I planned the most perfect day which reflected my own personal style. The estate is a versatile backdrop for any imagined event from the elegance of the "Gilded Age" mansion, the country charm of the grand front porch and gazebo to the stunning redwood equestrian carriage house doors. Our small ceremony was perfect in the shaded meditation garden that always has a comfortable cooler temperature." AW
