A Frederick County Maryland wedding venue that is affordable with an outside / garden setting. Whimsical, unique and vintage with rustic touches. Why consider Prosperity Mansion and Farm"? 1) Price- we are typically 40% less expensive than most wedding venues of the same stature 2) We offer THREE wedding packages to make us affordable 3) No Day of Coordinator required- MOST wedding venues now make it MANDATORY that you must hire a "Day of Coordinator or Wedding Planner". This comes at a significant additional cost of $1,200 to $3.000. Make sure that you add that into the quote for the cost of the wedding venue. 4) Select your own vendors- We do have a preferred vendors list but absolutely allow outside vendors as long as they meet our simple requirements. 5) BYOB- We have two local liquor stores that will deliver anything that you want in coolers iced up and ready to go on your wedding day.

Grapes, lavender, corn, and hay are among the crops now being produced. Springfield is home to a thriving apiary with 35 hives in operation. On the farm, you can see a diverse range of wildlife including hawks and falcons, white-tailed deer (including mule deer), groundhogs, turkey, and even a black bear. Acres of mature trees dot the landscape, along with one-of-a-kind specimens such as the Buckeye and Linden trees, which were imported from Germany centuries ago.
