Celebrate your special day amidst some of the most spectacular scenery in the Northeast. With its windswept salt marsh, miles of barrier beach, and beautiful hilltop mansion, The Crane Estate is an unforgettable destination for your wedding, whether it’s a large affair or an intimate gathering.
When you choose the Great House on Castle Hill, you have exclusive use of an elegant seaside mansion, set dramatically atop a hill overlooking Crane Beach and Crane Wildlife Refuge. The sweeping half-mile-long Grand Allée makes a stunning backdrop for your event.

If you’ve always dreamed of saying “I do” with sun, sand, and surf as your setting, then choose Steep Hill Beach for a seaside ceremony. Two private lawns overlooking the Atlantic provide the perfect spot for a reception to remember.

For a more intimate setting, consider the Barn. No matter which venue you choose, our professional and experienced event staff will be there to help you every step of the way.
