Stenton is an 18th-century colonial mansion in Philadelphia's Germantown neighborhood, built and passed down through six generations of the Logan family beginning with James Logan, a prominent colonial figure and confidant of William Penn. The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America in Pennsylvania has stewarded the property since 1899, and the City of Philadelphia has charged the organization with preserving Stenton as a National Historic Landmark. The house retains period rooms furnished with the Logan family's own collection, spanning William and Mary through Chippendale styles, along with early American textiles and a c.1730 portrait of James Logan attributed to Gustavus Hesselius displayed on the stair landing. Behind the mansion, a Colonial Revival garden offers a landscaped setting that reinterprets an 18th-century garden in the tradition of Deborah Logan's own stewardship. Beyond its exhibitions and educational programming, Stenton is available for private rentals, hosting customized tours, private parties, picnics, and photography and film shoots on its grounds. Renters have access to designated areas of the historic mansion and its landscaped grounds, set against the backdrop of one of Philadelphia's oldest surviving colonial estates.

The historic gardens at Planting Field make the ideal location for weddings, rehearsal dinners, and other special occasions. After the gardens have closed to the public, ceremonies for weddings and other celebrations usually start at 5 o'clock or later. To guarantee the exclusivity of your event, only one nighttime event is scheduled for each date. A payment of $15,000 is required to reserve Planting Fields for your private event, and the host is entitled to one year of Sustaining Member perks. Wedding ceremonies call for a $5,000 donation, which entitles the host to one year of Family Member perks. A spectacular Gold Coast mansion from the 1920s still stands today as a statement about art, architecture, and landscape, and its name is Planting Fields. The grounds, which were originally created by the Olmsted Brothers and are situated in Oyster Bay, New York, have 409 acres of greenhouses, rolling lawns, formal gardens, wooded pathways, and exceptional plant collections. Please get in touch with Lilly McGurk, Director of Stewardship and Events, at lmcgurk@plantingfields.org to arrange a walkthrough or to check the available dates.

Le Fanfare is a lovely and welcoming original Italian restaurant and event venue in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. It serves traditional Italian cuisine. Le Fanfare, tucked away at the end of Manhattan Avenue and nestled amid the traditional Polish bakeries and butchers, serves modest Italian cuisine accompanied by live jazz music. The menu is complemented with an all-Italian wine list as well as classic drinks. Greenpoint was chosen as the location for their next project because the energy there was similar to that of Nolita fifteen years ago, according to the owners, jazz musician Luca Fadda, his wife Giorgia, and their long-time friend Nicola Paganelli (whose family owns the Meloni winery in their native Sardinia, Italy). Chef Adam Ross oversees the kitchen, which serves only the highest-quality foods that are presented in a straightforward and friendly manner. All of the pastas and breads are prepared right here in the restaurant. Seasonal Italian cuisine is created using regional products and ingredients that have been meticulously selected. It is the perfect setting for any type of event, including a small wedding reception, rehearsal dinner, wedding shower, baby shower, and anniversary party. We have established ourselves as a leading Brooklyn wedding venue for couples wishing to host approximately 60 persons seated. Most of our menus are served family-style, and we have a variety of selections to choose from to suit your preferences. We have created an environment that is suitable for any form of celebration!
