Built in 1940, many of the details of Bois-des-Fosses, the du Pont estate in Chevannes, France, were lovingly recreated at Brantwyn. In 1990, the estate was purchased by The DuPont Country Club, meticulously restored and decorated with the guidance of the Winterthur Museum. Brantwyn's rooms are richly appointed with tasteful furnishings, which lend them a refined, yet relaxed, ambiance and makes them ideal for weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners, business meetings and family celebrations. The magnificence of the rooms is accented by the exquisitely manicured 60-acre garden which offers a breath-taking backdrop for photographs in every season. In the springtime, the wide, emerald lawns are perfect for afternoon weddings. On summer evenings, the gardens are filled with the delightful fragrance of flowers and cooled by a magnificent fountain. Brantywn can accommodate up to 150 guests for formal dining and up to 200 for a cocktail and hors d'oeuvre reception. Wedding Coordinators: Joan Snyder and Diana Ryan |
