From the reviews
We decided to stay at the Palmer house with our Ruby to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We had a great stay ! Everything was perfect the breakfast was fabulous as well the staff was very accommodating although the weather wasn’t great we decided to to leave earlier than expected to our surprise we got a message…
I recently did the elopement package at the Palmer House Inn, and it was truly a dream come true. The package included everything: flowers, champagne toast, cake, a wonderful minister, who was Billy, and even photography, which was Tom.
Getting married at Palmer House Inn
Palmer House Inn comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
