Weddings at Clermont State Historic Site provide a stunning selection of outdoor venues situated on the picturesque Livingston estate, available for rental for wedding receptions and other private events. Depending on the chosen location, the estate can comfortably accommodate between 50 and 300 guests, making it suitable for intimate gatherings and more significant celebrations.

Since its opening to couples in 1996, Clermont has offered a unique and enchanting experience for those looking to celebrate their special day amidst the beauty of this historic National Landmark property. Couples can select from various serene locations for their ceremony, reception, or both. The estate features wooded hideaways, century-old gardens, and breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the majestic Catskill Mountains, providing a royal experience for the couple and their guests.

Unlike many other venues that rely on an in-house caterer or require a specific catering service, Clermont offers couples the freedom to create a personalized dining experience. They provide a curated list of approved caterers who have demonstrated their ability to execute successful events at the estate over the past five years. This selection highlights the quality and reliability of these caterers and gives couples a sense of assurance in their choice. However, what truly sets Clermont apart is its encouragement for couples to bring in any preferred caterer. This openness allows engaged couples to think outside the box and choose a catering service that aligns perfectly with their vision and taste preferences, whether a family-owned restaurant, a local favorite, or a unique cuisine from a specialized caterer. This flexibility enables couples to curate a dining experience that is not just a meal but a memorable part of their celebration that reflects their unique story and style.

Whether it’s a formal sit-down dinner, a casual buffet, or a trendy food truck, Clermont’s policy ensures that every detail reflects the couple’s personalities and desires. By putting the power back into the hands of the couple, Clermont creates an atmosphere where each event can genuinely feel like a personal celebration, ensuring that all aspects of their special day are as they envisioned.
