One thing that meant a lot to my wife, myself, and our families is that John is people focused, honest, and that the process was transparent. We understood every charge and why it was there.Mike
We can’t even begin to thank you for everything you’ve done for us. It was so appreciated to work with such a sincere, professional and passionate “wedding coordinator” as yourself. You helped us with so many aspects of our wedding and were the backbone to our perfect evening. From the bottom of our hearts – Thank You!Lauren and Billy M.
We wanted to thank you for catering our wedding at the Morris Arboretum. The food was amazing and all of your staff were professional and worked so hard on making our wedding run smoothly. You were such a pleasure to work with and left us to do nothing on our wedding day except relax and enjoy ourselves! We cannot thank you enough.Jesse and Amy
While many of our guests commented on how delicious everything was, it was my mother-in-law who was most impressed and it isn’t easy to impress her.Jaimie
Your dinner was exceptionally delicious – we were so pleased with the variety of hors d’oeuvres and entrees.Elizabeth E.

For over a century, Cairnwood has been hosting wedding receptions within its halls. The tradition began with John and Gertrude Pitcairn opening their home for a marriage celebration in 1896.
Reminiscent of a French chateau, Cairnwood’s distinguished architecture, flowering gardens, and expansive lawns provide a distinctive backdrop for a truly exceptional event. Couples welcome guests into their own spacious mansion. The graciousness of the estate provides a setting that departs from the ordinary with endless indoor and outdoor possibilities.
Cairnwood is available for sit-down dinners with 200 guests or an opulent stations-style event for up to 275. The rooms, terraces, grand staircase, balconies and gardens inspire couples to create a unique and memorable celebration.

An attached terrace (covered from May through October) can seat an additional 50 guests for banquets and is ideal for an outdoor cocktail reception. A clearing adjacent to the Barn is suitable for a tent which can accommodate up to 500 people (tent not included in facility rental).
The Ridgeland grounds’ historic beauty makes it a popular spot for weddings and parties, while the Barn’s rustic charm makes it an ideal location for private events, conferences, meetings, retreats, and more. There is plenty of parking available for this facility.
The Barn at Ridgeland and surrounding facility are available on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. Other days and times are occasionally available; please inquire about a particular date.
