    Picture-perfect setting

    We couldn't be happier with our choice to get married at Keeler. From the start, Mary Ann made planning easy by answering all our questions and being genuinely kind to work with. The space felt romantic without being stuffy, and the gardens were absolutely perfect on our wedding day. We had about 70 guests and the venue was the ideal size for everyone to feel comfortable while enjoying the beautiful history of the grounds. Yes, you need to bring in all vendors, but the reasonable venue fee meant we pulled off our dream wedding for under 30K—something we never thought was possible in this area. The staff was helpful throughout the day, and we ended up with a celebration we're truly proud of. Completely recommend!!

    Beautiful & intimate historic venue

    We loved having our wedding at The Keeler Tavern! It was cozy, warm and intimate and the beautiful antique ambiance was just what we were looking for. Combined with the comparatively affordable price point for the area, choosing Keeler Tavern for our wedding was easy and we don’t regret it. We also appreciated the unique and affordable option to hire a Keeler Tavern Museum docent to give mini museum tours during our cocktail hour. (Our guests loved it!) Mary Ann (the point person at Keeler Tavern) was easy to work with and helped to answer all of our questions. It rained on our wedding day so we didn’t get to use the garden space for our ceremony as originally planned, but the patio tent was still a beautiful setting for the ceremony and the reception hall with all of its windows was lovely and cozy during the rainstorm. We would absolutely recommend Keeler Tavern as a venue for an intimate wedding in the Ridgefield area.
