About Wrenwood Mansion

A blush-toned garden mansion with fountains, a pool terrace and lawns that glow at golden hour.

Set in Lake Forest, Wrenwood Mansion pairs a distinctive garden mansion setting with a planning team that runs one celebration at a time. Ceremonies take place in the venue’s signature space, with cocktails flowing into a reception room dressed around your palette — never a template look.

Couples book Wrenwood Mansion for its light, its logistics and its calm: step-free guest routes, a private suite for preparations and a coordinator on the day who has run this room a hundred times.
