Wickham Park is a 280-acre non-profit private foundation set across Manchester and East Hartford, Connecticut. Established in 1960 from an estate left by industrialist Clarence H. Wickham, the park encompasses nine distinctly themed gardens — including the Hilltop, Irish, Oriental, English, Scottish, and award-winning Sensory Gardens — alongside woodlands, ponds, and open fields. The park hosts weddings, receptions, and private events across two dedicated venues. The Cabin at Hilltop Garden is a rustic log cabin — a replica of the original structure built by the Wickhams in 1927 — featuring wood floors, exposed beams, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and a connected 30-by-60-foot reception tent. The adjoining amphitheater offers a panoramic view of the Hartford skyline. The Emerald Room of the Irish Garden is a stone-sided hexagonal building with a wood cathedral ceiling, set within a half-acre walled garden complete with a water fountain, stone tables, and a gazebo courtyard. Both venues are available April through October and accommodate events ranging from intimate gatherings to receptions of up to 150 guests. Site fees include setup and cleanup, tables and chairs, audio-visual equipment, get-ready rooms, and parking for guests.
