The Carriage House is 3000 square feet, mostly glass with oversized barn doors, draping with twinkle lights in 20-foot high ceilings. The space can accommodate up to 150 guests for a seated dinner and dancing. It serves as a backup space for the ceremony if the weather doesn't allow for an outdoor ceremony. It is heated and cooled. Check out our Photo Gallery for lots more phot0os.
Rosa Lee Manor is still an operating farm. It is owned by the Hunter family since the early 1800's. At one time, it was several hundred acres. Today, there is still 200 acres of the original farm in our family. Rosa Lee Manor LLC was established in 1994, in memory of our beloved grandmother, Rosa Lee Adams Hunter. There are many historic structures - and memories - tucked away on the property.

Few decorations are needed. The grounds are already decked out with fountains, twinkle lights, lanterns. We have a few items for rent including rustic centerpiece lanterns or you may bring your own. The gardens are in full bloom that time of year, reducing the need for decorations.
You may select all of your own vendors, including caterers. We have been in business since 1995 so we're acquainted with many good vendors and can make recommendations if you need help. Caterers must have proof of insurance. We allow beer or wine, no liquor. An insured bartender must serve your bar.
Overnight in the Main House or our 1905 vintage farmhouse is available as options you may add.

If you are interested in a tour, I'm happy to meet you. Due to most weddings being on the weekends, I can meet you for a tour on Thursday evenings, most Fridays and some Sunday afternoons. If there's a day that works best for you, let me know and I'll check our schedule.
If you have other questions, please feel free to ask!
Thanks!

The Main House was originally established as a bed & breakfast. Today, it is used for dressing areas for the wedding party. It's also available overnight with six bedrooms and 8 beds (up to 12 guests).
You won't need to blow your budget decorating. You can dress us up or dress us down. Although, we provide a countryside setting, it is elegant. So you can pull off a very elegant event, or your event can feel rustic and charming. The grounds have endless rose gardens and perennial gardens which will reduce or even eliminate your need for decorating.
We have intentionally not commercialized the property, so there are no paved parking lots or glaring flood lights. Instead, there are quaint winding roads, twinkle lights and lit torches to create the romance needed for any special event.
We are nature lovers. We protect our wildlife. While you won't see (or smell) our livestock (cattle, horses), you may see herds of deer, wild turkeys, black bear, many many birds. Our gardens are designed to attract butterflies. Our water features will provide a beautiful backdrop for your photos as well as background sounds of fountains and falling water in harmony with the night sounds of chirping frogs and hooting owls.
Meet your hosts: Bill & Cyndee Duprey
