Welcome

A weekend at Holloway is unlike any other day of your life.

Built in 1898 as a family summer estate and lovingly restored over three generations, Holloway has hosted four hundred and twelve weddings since opening to couples in 2009 — and not a single Saturday with two events.

You and your guests have the run of twenty-eight acres of meadow, garden, and old-growth woodland. The 1898 manor sleeps twenty-six. The carriage house sleeps another fourteen. The barn — restored in 2019 — seats up to two hundred for dinner. The ceremony lawn looks out over the Hudson.

We host fourteen weddings a year. That is the only number we are willing to do well.

— Margaret & Owen Holloway, fourth-generation stewards

The Estate
The Property

A grand estate, kept intentionally small.

Holloway sits at the end of a half-mile gravel drive, beyond a stone gatehouse and a row of two-hundred-year-old sycamores. The house faces west toward the Catskills; the meadow opens east toward the river.

The original carriage house, restored in 2018, holds the kitchen, prep spaces, and a quiet bridal suite with a clawfoot tub and a balcony over the rose garden.

What you won't find here: another wedding next door. Holloway only hosts one event at a time. Your weekend is your weekend.

We toured eleven venues. None of them showed us prices. None of them returned calls in under three days. Holloway sent us a packet the same afternoon, with everything — what it costs, what was available, what wasn't. We booked the next week.

Planning Notes

The case for a Friday wedding (and why we'll talk you into one)

The data is overwhelming: Friday weddings cost less, draw stronger attendance, and give you Saturday to actually celebrate with your guests. Here's how to convince your future mother-in-law.

Frequently Asked

Answers, before you have to ask.

Do you really only host one wedding per weekend?
Yes. Holloway hosts fourteen weddings a year — never two in the same weekend, never one Friday-Sunday and another the following Friday. Your weekend is yours, and yours alone. This is non-negotiable for us, which is why we book eighteen months out.
Is the venue rental price all-in, or are there hidden fees?
The package prices listed above include exclusive estate use, on-site venue manager, day-of coordinator, all tables, chairs, linens, glassware, china, climate-controlled barn, lighting, sound system, and parking attendants. The only additional costs are: food and beverage (priced per guest, as listed), your vendors (planner, photographer, florals, music), New York sales tax, and gratuity if you choose. No setup fees. No teardown fees. No surprises.
What's your weather plan?
Every package includes a built-in rain plan: ceremony moves indoors to the manor library or the barn loft, depending on guest count. We make the call together by 11am the morning of, based on the radar — and if we move you inside, we move you back out the next morning for brunch. No upcharges for the rain plan.
How accessible is the property?
The main floor of the manor, the barn, the ceremony lawn, and the verandah are all wheelchair accessible. We have golf carts for transport between buildings. Two of the guest rooms in the manor are ground-floor accessible. The carriage house has an installed lift.
Can we bring our own vendors?
Yes, with one exception: alcohol service must be coordinated through our licensed bar program. Everyone else — caterer, photographer, planner, florist, band, DJ, officiant — is your choice. Our preferred vendor list is a suggestion, not a requirement.
What about pets?
Yes. We've had dogs in ceremonies, a llama (once), and a particularly well-behaved sheep. Please mention pets in your inquiry so we can plan accordingly.
How does the booking process work?
Three steps. (1) You send an inquiry and we email you a full pricing packet within 48 hours. (2) If we're a fit, you come for a private 90-minute tour, Tuesday through Thursday. (3) If you'd like to book, we hold your date for fourteen days at no cost while you make your decision. A 25% deposit confirms the booking; the remainder is split across two payments leading up to the wedding.
When can we tour?
Private tours are by appointment, Tuesday through Thursday between 11am and 4pm. Tours run about 90 minutes and include a walk-through of every space, the proposed timeline for your date, and a conversation about budget and vendors. We never schedule two tours on the same day.
