Greystone Mansion: A Perfect Venue for Your Beverly Hills Wedding!


When you arrive at Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills, it is hard to believe that you are just a couple of blocks up from the world famous Sunset Boulevard.  You feel as if you have been transported to an estate in Europe with the manicured gardens, the tree-lined promenades, and of course the fantastical mansion itself.  The breathtaking location overlooks the city offering skyline views that add a perfect backdrop for your Beverly Hills wedding.

Greystone Mansion truly is one of An Amazing Affair's favorite wedding venues in Beverly Hills, and frankly the entire Los Angeles area.  Let us share some of the reasons why we think you should consider Greystone Mansion for your wedding, shower, vow renewal, or anniversary celebration.  

The Gardens, Courtyards, and Fountains

Greystone Mansion has several different areas for your ceremony and reception, each with their own special charm and atmosphere.

The Formal Gardens is one of the original features of the estate, with a lush green lawn surrounded by a slate promenade.  The original fountain at the head of the lawn is the centerpiece of your wedding ceremony in the Formal Gardens.  One of the amazing features of this area is that it accommodates up to 400 seated wedding guests comfortably.  This area is for ceremonies only.  You can select one of the other beautiful sites for your reception.  Although it can seat 400, it can also be scaled to suit a smaller wedding quite effectively.  



The Inner Courtyard is an escape from the everyday for your wedding.  The Inner Courtyard is created by the walls of the mansion itself with an arched portico entryway framing the fountain in the center of the courtyard.  The Inner Courtyard creates an intimate feeling for your guests and wedding even though it easily holds up to 200 guests.  There is nearly a fairytale atmosphere in the Inner Courtyard, without being too much.  Embrace your wedding guests in the arms of the Inner Courtyard.

The Terrace is a secret jewel for your exclusive wedding.  It offers a front row view of the cities of Beverly Hills and Los Angeles from the slated grounds with the equally stunning view of the mansion behind you.  The reflection pool adds a serene touch to the Terrace, and this area accommodates up to 80 guests.  Even the pathway walking to the Terrace has a feeling of being in a different time and a different place. 

The Pool creates a classically glamorous Beverly Hills event.  The original pool has been filled in with the outline of the pool incorporated into the design of the bricks.  The pool house provides changing and lounges for the bridal party, and private restrooms for the guests.  Mostly though, the pool house contributes the charm of a bygone era.  The Pool comfortably holds up to 150 seated guests.


The Mansion Itself

The First Floor of the Greystone Mansion is now open for events!  In years past, the only areas available for ceremonies and receptions were outdoors (which is still FANTASTIC!).  However, we are so excited that the First Floor is also ready to provide the atmosphere for your wedding!  With original features, including the iconic black-and-white checkered floors, your wedding at Greystone Mansion will create vivid memories for you and your guests.  With the intimate option of a seated dinner for up to 60 in the Grand Ballroom - to the grander option of utilizing the entire first floor for up to 200 guests, this indoor option is a dream that can come true for you and your guests.  

Ambiance and Opportunity

The grounds and the mansion provide the canvas and space for nearly any type of wedding, with any level of formality.  You could have a low key, outdoor garden wedding to an ultra formal, black tie event.  In addition, the Greystone Mansion adapts to many different themes or stories.  If you have always dreamt of a full blown Marie Antoinette wedding, a Renaissance Wedding, a Fairy themed event, and any decade of the 1900's from the Twenties on - this is the venue that can make your dreams a reality.  It is one of the best venues for a Goth wedding, hands down.  Masked Ball to Hollywood Glamour ~ Greystone Mansion would be a key player in your event!

The opportunities for before and after parties and events surrounding your wedding day are endless, as you are just a couple of blocks from Sunset Boulevard, and a few more blocks from Santa Monica Boulevard.  You are within reach of Hollywood, Santa Monica, and all that Beverly Hills has to offer.

If you are planning a destination wedding to the Los Angeles area, we also recommend  Greystone Mansion.  It truly creates a once in a lifetime event for you and your guests.

It is difficult to convey in words across the internet the depth of the beauty, the feeling of history, the charm and grace of the Greystone Mansion.  To quote our Creative Director, Max Gough, "Every wedding - aside from the beach weddings - should be held at Greystone Mansion!"   When you are on the grounds, it is hard not to have that feeling.  



We would love to take you on a tour of the grounds and the facilities to see if this is the special place you have been searching for ...for your Beverly Hills wedding.  We can also share preliminary information regarding fees and regulations.  Contact us at info@anamazingaffair.com or give us a call at 310.909.6769 and ask for Bridget.

  2. Yeah, I have also heard a lot about this spot. It’s a perfect Beverly Hills Wedding venue. However, I am looking for a beachside location and searching for affordable but awesome Malibu wedding venues within our budget.
