Grounds and Garden Weddings

Imagine yourself dressed in your gorgeous wedding gown walking to the open double doors of the historic mansion and stepping onto a large pillared portico as your wedding guests, seated in the garden, watch you walk down the brick walk .  You step down into the Sunken Garden to the water feature where your groom awaits.  After the ceremony you mingle with your guests in a tent set on the beautiful lawn.  A wedding at Belmont Hall is one that will never be forgotten, by you or your guests.

House Weddings and Rehearsal Dinners

If you are planning a smaller wedding, the stately historical mansion is a unique venue.  Exchanging vows and holding your reception in rooms once lived in by a Delaware governor will make your wedding very special.  Your guests are encouraged to explore the downstairs of the home and the grounds while enjoying your event. Rehearsal dinners can also be held at Belmont Hall although the capacity of the house is limited to 50 people.
