From the reviews
Sadly only got to experience one of the three houses on a private tour during a wedding. It's small, not toooo much to it, but still extremely interesting and very well maintained.
I was attending a baby shower here and was delighted. It's so beautiful. I never even realized it was there because it's hidden away from the street. What a gorgeous venue!!
Getting married at Webb Deane Stevens Museum
Webb Deane Stevens Museum 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.
