Woodsgate at STROUDSMOOR is
one of the oldest and most charming
of the many buildings, which span
the property. Once a mill for storing
grains and winter foodstuffs, it now
hosts some of the inn's most unique
events. The minimum number of
guests required to reserve
Woodsgate is 75; a maximum of 150
can be accommodated for a
traditional served meal; 200 for a
cocktail reception.
A cobblestone path leads guests into
the woods and the bride to her
groom at the altar.
The Woodland Chapel is created by
50' oak and maple trees, god's
green earth and blue skies.
Outdoor ceremony locations are
available from April through
November. Indoor options are
available for December through March.
Old-world charm is embedded in the stonewalls of Woodsgate's entrance level. Here a pub-like atmosphere is created by comfortable wing chairs, century-old beams, a stone bar, fireplace and baby grand piano. A spiral staircase leads guests to the dining room, where a hardwood dance floor, pierced tin chandeliers, bent-wood chairs, lavish table settings and beautiful vistas of the surrounding woods invite guests to relax and enjoy.
If your heart desires an outdoor wedding ceremony, consider the Woodsgate's Evergreen Garden or Woodland Chapel, where an occasional deer has been known to attend.
A forty-foot stone privacy wall with coach lights and iron gates surround Woodsgate creating the ultimate "Secret Garden" for the perfect ceremony.
A pine arbor festooned with yards of silk and flowers creates the ceremony altar amid towering oaks.
