I'm getting married there in August and I'm paying $95 + gratuity and tax for a Sunday afternoon. I could be wrong, but I think it was $125 + gratuity and tax for a Saturday night. Also, the price range varies depending on the time of year. You can give them a call and ask, I was given a price quote over the phone.

I don't know much about the price range but I do know it's a beautiful place-I would have looked into it but it was too small for my number of guests (270+).

I saw it a couple of months ago - it is a gorgeous place. Good luck

Did they finish all the construction?

Re: Vanderbilt Mansion at Dowling

we went to a wedding there and it was lovely!

BUT i think the max is 150...and they had 148...and it was TIGHT!! I think 130 or under is a better size...

the food is fantastic...as all lovin oven food is...so I wouldn't even think twice about that...and from what I hear they offer even more at the cocktail hour...

Re: Vanderbilt Mansion at Dowling

I just booked my wedding there 2 weeks ago, and I couldn't be happier. The BM and staff are very helpful. I think the price for a Saturday night was $125pp with 125 guarantee. It's really a beautiful place, I'm praying for a sunny day!

Definitely go see it and Good Luck!
