The Full Package
Saturday
Your Day, Entirely
Saturday breathes with anticipation as the estate transforms into the most anticipated event of your social season. Lead your guests from the raw beauty of the landscape into the glamour of your stylized reception personalized to exude your energy.
Celebrating over a multi-course dinner and gushing toasts, your guests will feel the love and emotion you could never put into words.
Dance into the next day and eventually under the stars. The after-hours that doesn't end. Your guests will never forget this night.
Friday
Arrive & Settle In
By the time your inner circle arrives on Friday morning, the 3.5-hour drive pays its first dividend: the total surrender to a private, weekend-long residency.
Our distance ensures your guests aren't just attending, they are inhabiting your world.
Here, Friday night isn't just a rehearsal; it’s the moment the outside world officially stops reaching you.
Sunday
Linger a Little Longer
A slow morning on the estate. A farewell brunch. One last walk down to the beach.
No rush, because the best part of giving your people a full weekend is that it ends on your terms — with everyone full, rested, and already asking about the next one.
This isn't a venue rental. It's a multi-day estate residency — where the schedule disappears and the experience takes over. Here's what three days at Gilbertsville actually feels like.

"Outstanding. Gilbertsville Farmhouse has cultivated a team of passionate professionals to make your event run seamlessly — and make every single guest feel like they belong."
Common Questions
The minimum investment at Gilbertsville Farmhouse is $125,000+tax and can vary depending on guest count, season, and food selections. This covers exclusive venue access, 30-day planning support, full weekend coordination, guest services team, weekend beverages and snacks, and on-site catering + bar for your welcome dinner event and your full wedding event, including cocktail hour and reception. Lodging for 120 guests is paid by your guests like a hotel block.
The Chandelier Barn accommodates up to 250 seated guests for your reception. Our on-site lodging sleeps 120 guests across all accommodations — meaning your closest people wake up on property Saturday and Sunday mornings. Off-site guests are welcome to join all weekend celebrations. Local hotels are 15 minutes away.
Yes — Harvest 336, our in-house culinary team, handles all catering for your weekend. This is actually one of the biggest advantages of booking with us: one team, one kitchen, one point of contact from Friday arrival lunch to Sunday brunch. Everything is made from scratch with local, chemical-free ingredients. We're happy to accommodate dietary restrictions and work with you on custom menus.
Truly, no curfew. The estate is exclusively yours for the full weekend — you set the timeline. The Chandelier Barn typically wraps at 11pm, and then the After Hours Lounge takes over for the crew till 1am. Bonfires go as long as you want. We've seen Sunday morning sunrises from the beach. It's your property, your call.
We host only 27–28 weddings per year, which means dates book out fast — typically 12–18 months in advance for peak season (May through October). If you have a specific date in mind, the best thing you can do is text us or reach out through our inquiry form to check availability before it's gone.
We work with couples to build their own vendor teams for photography, florals, entertainment, and more. We have a list of preferred vendors who know the property well if you need recommendations, but you're never locked into anyone. Catering and bar service are the only in-house exclusives.
