We loved having our wedding at The Keeler Tavern! It was cozy, warm and intimate and the beautiful antique ambiance was just what we were looking for. Combined with the comparatively affordable price point for the area, choosing Keeler Tavern for our wedding was easy and we don’t regret it. We also appreciated the unique and affordable option to hire a Keeler Tavern Museum docent to give mini museum tours during our cocktail hour. (Our guests loved it!) Mary Ann (the point person at Keeler Tavern) was easy to work with and helped to answer all of our questions. It rained on our wedding day so we didn’t get to use the garden space for our ceremony as originally planned, but the patio tent was still a beautiful setting for the ceremony and the reception hall with all of its windows was lovely and cozy during the rainstorm. We would absolutely recommend Keeler Tavern as a venue for an intimate wedding in the Ridgefield area.

19Main 

5.0

New Milford, CT
  • Up to 130 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $6,000

Constructed soon after the Great Fire of 1902, The United Bank Building was built to house two banks whose previous buildings had been destroyed, New Milford Savings Bank and the New Milford First National Bank. The two banks immediately organized to rebuild, quickly agreeing in principal to build a joint facility on the site of the New England House, a locally well known tavern and inn located at the corner of Bank and Main Street. For most of its life, the building had been used in some form of a bank, but had been largely under-used in recent decades, and had fallen into disrepair. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 and taken over by Village Green Investments in 2015. After 9 months of renovations, the building became 19Main. Throughout renovations, we strived for modern amenities with historic elegance; three vaults remain from the building’s former bank days.

We are so pleased and happy with 19Main's venue and team, for us, it was Kylie. We decided to have our October 2025 wedding at 19Main due to it's unique building - the vaults, mezzanine, and large bridal and groom suites sealed the deal as well as being right on the beautiful New Milford town square. We reserved the venue in early January 2025 and worked with Kylie who guided us through site tours and being our main point of contact in general. We opted to rent the entire building and have a day-of coordinator (Kylie) and access to place settings (glassware, silverware, china). We are thankful we went with the 'expanded wedding package.' On the weeks leading up to the wedding, we had multiple vendor meetings and Kylie served as the linchpin for everything and she was incredibly organized. On the day, we had guests moving between the two large spaces (ceremony to cocktail hour to reception) with plenty of space to explore. The guests were thrilled to see an old bank be converted to such a beautiful venue. 19Main really left an impression on us and our guests - we couldn't be happier to have had the pleasure of getting married there and working alongside Kylie.

We got married at the Elm City Club in early November and only have amazing things to say about the experience! Every aspect of the wedding planning execution went super smoothly working with Sandra and her team, and our guests all loved the beauty of the venue, food, and atmosphere. Would absolutely recommend for anyone planning a small to medium sized wedding in Connecticut! Be sure to book way in advance though since it fills up very fast. Pros: -Venue is gorgeous and has a tremendous amount of personality. In our opinion this is the best place to have a wedding in Downtown New Haven, way better than doing a wedding in a hotel. It even has the option of coming pre-decorated if you'd like. -Sandra and her team are extremely professional responsive. Sandra has great attention to detail and helped us plan every bit of the wedding day which helped to put our minds at ease. The club staff all did an incredible job the day of and were very professional as well. -Food was outstanding. Chicken marsala and swordfish were cooked to perfection and the dessert table was a smash hit! (One of our guests gasped when she heard there was a dessert room) -Pricing is very reasonable, especially for Connecticut! There is a lot of flexibility with pricing tiers for food drink.

Bill Miller’s Castle was the first and last venue we looked at. We just knew it was where we needed to be married. And it was everything we could have dreamed of and more for our wedding! From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the character, beauty, history and warmth of the space. It’s truly one-of-a-kind, and our guests are still talking about how magical it felt a month later. The staff was incredible—professional, kind, and attentive to EVERY detail. Lisa Miller made the entire process seamless, and on the day of our wedding, everything flowed perfectly. The castle provided the most stunning backdrop, from the ceremony to the reception, and our photos and video look like something out of a fairytale. It has its only salon area to get ready and hair and make up was done flawlessly. Photographers will have a field day! Choosing Bill Miller’s Castle was the best decision we made. It wasn’t just a venue—it became a part of our story. We will cherish the memories we made there forever.

Our wedding at the Bird and Bottle Inn was better than I could have imagined. Stefania was a dream to work with. She was quick to answer questions, no matter how big or small. She was upfront in her communication. She was totally grounding and easy to talk to, especially on the day. But most of all, she made us feel like our day was important and special. The food was 10/10. Guests are still talking about our food four months later. Everything was delicious and HOT! It was remarkable that each plate had hot food that had to come from the kitchen to the tent. It felt like a seated meal at a 5 star restaurant. All food allergies were taken into account. People with allergies were still able to have a delicious meal where they didn't have to worry. I cannot say enough kind words about the staff. They were passionate about good service. Each table remarked on how kind, professional, and knowledgeable their waiter was. Like Stefania, they made us feel like our day was special and unique, not just another event they were working. The grounds and rooms are stunning and comfortable. It rained on our day and staff were able to quickly turn around and make sure our ceremony in the tent was beautiful. We didn't even care that it rained because the ceremony was still wonderful. Perhaps the highest compliment is that our guests are recommending the Bird and Bottle to their friends for their wedding. I can't say enough good things about this venue. If you are looking for a charming place to get married with exceptionally kind staff that knows exactly what they're doing and has AMAZING food, this is the place for you.

Alex knew all of our family members and bridal party’s names, and was extremely personable. She went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of all night. She brought me a snack before the ceremony and continuously brought me my water all day and night (without me asking)They truly make you feel like a VIP throughout your entire day and their top notch team(along with our caterer David Alan) ensured that everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. In the early stages of planning we worked with Jessica Hess and she is extremely helpful and communicative. The mansion truly felt like home for the day. We hosted our ceremony on the vista , cocktail hour was on the terrace, and we had dinner in the East ballroom. Guests were in awe of the estate (we also lucked out with absolutely perfect weather), and how every detail was perfectly executed. Our special day was truly a dream and felt like it was out of a movie! We could not recommend the Wadsworth Mansion enough, and can't wait to return for future celebrations.

Shaun, who runs the show and executes perfection, is the BEST. From the first tour of the venue to the day of she made sure my vision came to life and I cannot thank her and her staff enough.

Everything with Three Village Inn from start to finish was nothing but amazing. We worked with Tom and we can’t thank him enough. We did the package the venue offered and all the vendors were so great to work with as well. Communication was never an issue and he was just so great. To be honest, the entire staff was a pleasure to work with. Our maître d’ was Jonathan and he was attentive and a pleasure to work with as well. The food at both cocktail hour and dinner was out of this world. Absolutely delicious. Our guests still talk about it. The venue itself is just beautiful and the grounds are great for pictures as well as the beach across the street. We had our ceremony indoors and they did such a great job. Our wedding was more than what we could’ve dreamed of.

Whitby Castle was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the very first interaction, their communication style was responsive, kind, and warm - they made us feel like we were their top priority. The quality of their work and the value they provided was nothing short of amazing, perfection, and beautiful. They constantly checked the weather to ensure our outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour were flawless, and their attentive staff went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of. And the food - oh the food! It was even more amazing on our wedding day than the incredible tasting we had beforehand. Every single dish was out of this world delicious. We are forever grateful to the team at Whitby Castle for making our special day truly unforgettable. We had several add-ons (sushi, Venetian, and donuts and apple cider to go) and every single one was a hit. Every single guest kept talking about the food and how beautiful the venue is!!

Tarrytown House Estate is a truly beautiful wedding venue and an incredible value for what it offers. The grounds are stunning, especially in the fall, with endless photo opportunities that made our entire weekend feel like the Broadway production we planned (Note: our wedding had a light Broadway theme that worked very well at TTHE). From the ceremony to the reception to the afterparty, the property offered a wide range of adaptable spaces, which made it easy to tailor the layout to our vision and comfortably accommodate a large guest list. The food was a standout. It was delicious, abundant, and consistently praised by our guests, both for quality and quantity. Many guests commented that it exceeded their expectations. The venue’s preferred vendor list and Ann’s suggested vendors were also a huge help. It saved us time, reduced stress, and ultimately helped us manage costs without sacrificing quality. One of the biggest highlights was the speakeasy afterparty space, which was a total hit and made the post wedding Pajama party, memorable finale. The venue is also very accessible in terms of planning. We were able to visit often, walk the grounds freely, and truly familiarize ourselves with the property ahead of the big day, which made us feel confident and prepared. The only challenge worth noting is that the hotel room layout can be a bit confusing, and the property is not the most accessible for older guests or those with limited mobility. That said, we forgot to ensure that less mobile guests were given the most accessible room and they do have a golf cart to shuttle guests around. We also cannot say enough good things about Ann, our venue coordinator. She was exceptional from start to finish. Her communication was clear and timely, and it was immediately obvious that she is deeply experienced and knows this venue inside and out. She was warm, friendly, and incredibly personable, and she genuinely made us feel like she was on our team rather than trying to sell us on upgrades we didn’t need. Ann was an invaluable source of insight, advice, and creative problem-solving, and she was always willing to entertain and help execute our more ambitious or unconventional ideas (e.g. a Reindeer Ringbearer). She consistently offered thoughtful, cost-effective guidance that helped us bring our vision to life without unnecessary stress or expense. On the wedding day itself, she was incredibly present, calm, and responsive, handling details seamlessly and making us feel fully supported. At every step, she made us feel like her only and most valued clients. Overall, we would highly recommend Tarrytown House Estate and Ann to any couple looking for a beautiful, flexible venue with excellent food, strong vendor partnerships, and truly outstanding coordination.

SERVICE WAS SEAMLESS AND WE LOVED THE DUET STYLE MAINS. IT ALLEVIATED STRESS NOT HAVING TO ASK EVERYONE WHAT THEY WANTED TO EAT. PAUL MADE SURE OUR SPECIAL DAY WAS PERFECT. HE WAS AROUND ALL DAY TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS CORRECT AND HE HANDLED ALL THE VENDORS AS THEY ARRIVED AND WE WERE ABLE TO RELAX AND ENJOY THE WEDDING! We didn’t need a planner.

Full disclaimer, my husband and I both work for Connecticut Wedding Group. So, you may think this post is a tad biased, but we'd have to disagree... You see at the start of our engagement we did entertain some "obligatory" research, but, this was incredibly short lived. We came to the quick conclusion, before we even got to scheduling tours, that there's simply no way we could ever put our biggest investment in anyones hands but our own planning & culinary teams. Every weekend we see our couples share their big day with all of the most important people in their lives. A moment you only get once, and our team pours their whole hearts into making every minute pure perfection. My husband was (hands down) here for the food, while I was here so I didn't need to plan my own wedding and worry about all the logistics that my brain normally can't avoid. Our guests continue to rave. It was the best day ever, and we are so deeply grateful to our team for doing what they do. Our only regret is we can't do it again and again and again.
