Tyler Gardens

A five-acre garden influenced by the varied cultures of France, Italy, and Philadelphia may be found on the 200-acre Tyler Gardens estate. The mansion and gardens on this estate are like a Bucks County dream, transporting tourists back to the elegant days of the 1930s.

George F. and Stella Elkins Tyler built these four-tiered formal gardens in 1930, and they include a variety of flora and fauna, manicured lawns, imposing stone walls and staircases, gravel paths, old-world fountains, and dramatic bronze sculptures. These gardens, as the website puts it, "are reminiscent of a golden period of elegance with fairy tale beauty."

The wedding package includes five hours of event time, a huge tent reception with vinyl-wood flooring and a full lighting package, tables for various usage, and mahogany Chiavari chairs and ceremony chairs. There's also a dance floor, a bar area, patio couches with a fire pit, fans or heaters depending on the weather, and a bike bar for cocktail hour. Additional options, like as chandeliers for the reception tent, are available.

Typical Cost: $4,000 for the ceremony and reception; $35/per person fee and $175 membership fee to the Historical Society of Princeton

Capacity: 300

Bonus: The venue provides a golf cart and attendant to drive guests from the parking lot to the ceremony space.
