Castleton Estate is a hosted, luxury wedding venue offering a fully planned and professionally managed estate experience. Because of the scale of the property and the level of service included, weddings at Castleton represent a higher investment than a traditional venue rental.

Our Castleton Experiences range from $15,995-$29,999 with most couples investing $50,000+++ overall for a Saturday wedding. This range reflects the full scope of the Castleton experience, including exclusive use of the estate, full planning and design services, professional florals and event design, in-house culinary experiences, staffing, and the core vendor team required to execute the day at this level. 

Our Sunday and weekday wedding package is designed as a more intimate, streamlined experience which often begins at $40,000+++, while still offering the same thoughtful care and elevated hospitality.

We believe in transparency and guiding couples early so expectations are clear and the experience feels confident, intentional, and beautifully supported from start to finish.
