A Garden Wedding: The Beauty Within the Manor Courtyard

The views at Stonebridge Manor simply cannot be beat! When you arrive on property at the Manor you’re immediately greeted by the lush greenery that embraces the house. Upon entering the Manor Courtyard, on one side appears the stone bridge surrounded by full green trees that seem to touch the sky and to the other your eyes look upon the grand, brick facing estate.

Around the deep green lawn lies an intimate ceremony space. In the front, a wrought iron arbor stands with a chandelier. Our couples become centerstage, with all eyes on them as they exchange vows.  Meanwhile the grand trees provide a canopy of shade, swaying softly in the breeze.  Oh how romantic ceremonies in the Manor Courtyard are!

After the ceremony, guests are greeted by our friendly staff and invited to the stone bridge with smiles, tray passed appetizers, and refreshing beer and wine. Background music plays softly in the air.  As the sun sets, the twinkle lighting along the perimeter of the manor adds to the dimly lit sky in an incandescent elegance. The stately trees are wrapped with more twinkle lights and the Manor grassy area is lined with lamp posts.

Wrapping around the corner of the manor, the courtyard seems to spark a magic from within the soul that radiates love, joy and tranquility. Votives flicker on each of the set to perfection guest tables. As though pulled from the pages of a fairytale, the Manor Courtyard displays just how remarkable Arizona can be for outdoor weddings.  In the East side of the Manor terrace, a wrought iron arbor stands that is draped with the natural beauty of  vines and greenery. Hanging in the center of the Arbor is lite lantern and strands of white market lights. Its a popular spot for a sweetheart table. The guests tables are set around the Manor Terrace with soft white cafe lighting hanging above the tables.

The Manor Courtyard comfortable holds up to 150 guests with seating and tables for dinning, dancing, and mingling. In the event the weather is temperamental, the Manor Courtyard offers a banquet room located in the downstairs of the Manor.  The manor banquet room is styled with a timeless, classic beauty, that works perfectly with just about any design style. The beautiful hardwood floors make for a wonderful dancing surface.
