Our Missouri wedding and rehearsal dinner options are designed to retain the quiet charm of our property, while creating an exceptional event that will be long remembered.  We have developed our programs to provide a warm, welcoming atmosphere for you and your guests.

Complex events such as wedding parties require extensive planning and attention to details.  Included in most of our packages is the use of our Wedding Coordinator for the planning of your wedding and the day of your ceremony to ensure your day is just how you want it.

We have many different on-site locations that can be used for your wedding.  The mansion’s front parlor is perfect for small weddings, combining elegance and warmth to enhance your wedding ceremony.  The mansion’s grounds as well as our spacious gazebo are also beautiful settings for your outdoor wedding.

Our Woodside Restaurant can comfortably seat up to 60 guests, while our garden patio can sit an additional 40 guests.  Larger outdoor events, using a tent, can be arranged but have additional associated costs.

Each event at The Garth Woodside Mansion, regardless of the reason or occasion, brings to life the highest standards of culinary arts and gracious service. We look forward to hosting your wedding event.  Please contact us to set up an appointment with our Wedding Coordinator, Erik (573)-470-3492 or email at eriks@garthmansion.com
