Willowdale Estate Is One Of Those Places That Feels Like Magic The Moment You Arrive
Tucked away in Bradley Palmer State Park, this charming venue combines a beautiful, restored mansion with stunning grounds that are perfect for any celebration, and especially perfect for weddings! Willowdale Estate is located in Topsfield, Massachusetts and has a rich history dating back to the early 1900s, when it was originally built as a private estate. Over the years, the mansion and surrounding grounds have been beautifully preserved and restored.

Today, Willowdale Estate blends historical beauty with modern amenities, making it a unique and timeless venue for special occasions. And what's especially fun for this California girl is how the venues on the East Coast are always so symmetrical in design 😍

Features stunning wood beams, large windows that let in natural light, and a beautiful fireplace that adds warmth and charm.
