About This Vendor
William Mason House is a breathtaking wedding venue in Thompson Hill, CT, situated among the rolling hills of picturesque backdrops. Built by mill owner William H. Mason around 1845, this venue is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in Connecticut. The structure of this site is matched by only a few others of its style, with elements of Gothic arches and beams surrounding the house. This stunning mansion opened its doors to weddings in 2023 and now shares the magic and charm of the site with nearlyweds celebrating their love. After being abandoned for decades, the historic estate of William Mason House was privately acquired in 2019, now restored to its former glory with love and care. While elements of the house's history are honored, it now incorporates a variety of newer, more modern features, bringing the atmosphere of a bygone era to the twenty-first century. Atop the original 1845 mahogany staircase lie period-themed guest rooms. Each space has been restored with antique reproductions and furnishings, 19th-century lighting, marble en suite bathrooms, gas fireplaces, and glamorous contemporary comforts. These luxurious rooms are ideal for overnight guests or nearlyweds and their wedding parties to avail of in preparation for the day, topped off with a glass of champagne. Each room includes complimentary refreshments, a-la-carte continental breakfast, plush comfort wear, fine linens, central air, heat control, and more. William Mason House provides the most incredible photo opportunities, with luscious green landscapes and romantic gardens. With original glass windows, arched ceilings, gilded chandeliers, period art, and historical fineries, the house itself offers beautiful photo backdrops. The gorgeous outdoor area is ideal for a romantic ceremony, with fountains, flowers, and space for a custom-decorated tent. The talented team offers a selection of wedding packages to suit each event's theme, style, vision, and budget. Couples are invited to contact William Mason House with any questions.

William Mason House Reviews
The William Mason House was a dream venue. A castle fit for a Queen, from a fairytale book. My family and I arrived two days prior to our wedding, I booked the weekend getaway package. The rooms are timeless and elegant, the bathrooms covered in marble and gold. We relaxed in the showers and tubs with Molton Brown London products, and lotions! Plush robes, slippers, coffee, and WMH creamer were all provided. We enjoyed a breakfast on the veranda, listening to the birds. My mother, mother in law, and sisters in law, got ready at the spa for our rehearsal dinner. We booked the rehearsal dinner at the sister property, ANYA. Menu options were given to us weeks prior for the rehearsal dinner and wedding. We enjoyed the outdoor lap pool in the spa, and felt at home on this venue. It is truly a weekend wedding experience. The day of the wedding, we got ready in the SPA, enjoyed the veranda and a light breakfast. The wedding coordinator handled all my vendors, I did not worry about their arrival or setup. We did our first look pictures by the fountain in the gardens, and around the mansion. The ceremony was held at the outdoor chapel, and it faces the gardens. Our cocktail hour was on the veranda and we had passed hors d’oeuvre and a champagne tower! The venue partnered with The Cup Bearer, who sabered Veuve champagne bottles. Our reception was held in the tent. The tent is glamorous and elegant. It is breathtaking. Black and white timeless floor, white WMH bar, and gold chandeliers. We rented the table settings, table numbers, and table cloths from the venue. Everything was stunning and the food was delicious with a beautiful presentation.

My husband and I had our wedding at The William Mason House in August of this year.From the second you drive up to the property you will be in awe of the landscape. As we took our first walk through inside of the William Mason House, my husband and I both could not believe the attention to detail in every corner of the venue. From the beautiful decor to the ceilings that left us both speechless- there is truly no wedding venue like this one. As a bride planning a wedding on her own, the decor and natural beauty that came with the venue was truly a lifesaver. I did not have to worry about purchasing and planning additional decor which saved time, money, and stress. One of the other reasons we chose this venue is the way the staff was able to take whatever “dream” we’ve had of our wedding day and make it a reality. The staff here was attentive, accommodating, caring, and truly treated my husband, myself, and all of our guests like family. Without the help of Kelly, Lisa, Channing, Evan, and the rest of the William Mason House Staff, our wedding would not have been possible. Anything I’ve ever dreamed of my wedding being- the William Mason House exceeded far beyond what I even thought was possible. This venue is a true fairytale. I wish my husband and I could have another wedding just so we could experience this amazing weekend again!
