Greystone Mansion offers historic architecture and lush gardens for ceremonies and receptions. Couples can host ceremonies in the Formal Garden or hold receptions in the mansion's inner and west courtyards.

Greystone Mansion is a historic Tudor Revival estate located in the Beverly Hills foothills. The architecture is characterized by its stone facade and a notable grand staircase that overlooks the downtown skyline.

You can host a wedding ceremony in the formal garden, which features a green lawn surrounded by white roses and box hedges. For receptions, the venue accommodates up to 150 guests. While various outdoor areas are available, food service is restricted in the formal garden, and all music, decor, and catering must be contained within specifically rented areas.

The grounds offer diverse backdrops for photography, ranging from the structured elegance of the inner courtyard to the expansive views from the terrace. Because the property is a public park, non-commercial photography requires a permit, which is available between 10:30 am and 5:30 pm. Couples often utilize the variety of textures and perspectives provided by the manor’s architecture and the surrounding gardens to create a cohesive visual story.
