For outdoor events your event planner will have helped you decide on a rain plan. A ceremony or outdoor reception would be relocated to our Grand Ballroom. And yes! We can host both the ceremony and the reception in the Ballroom.

Short answer...no. But why would you want to? We are a full service food and beverage caterer with the best event food. Really all our guests rave about the food for years after each event. We're sure you've already heard great things about it.

No. We are licensed by the state and county to sell and serve alcohol so they don't allow us to have any other controlled substances on premisses.
With that said, we are always open to getting you any alcohol that we might not have on our typical menu.
And please let your party and guests know that any outside alcohol that will be brought and consumed on the premisses will have to be disposed of and our staff will have to enforce that law. We want you all to have a great day with great memories and stay safe while doing that.

No, but there typically aren't many events where we have leftovers, since we prepare for your guest count.
The Frederick County Department of Health requires that any leftover food be handled only by Ceresville Mansion, the licensed food service facility.

Yes we do! We're thrilled to be a partner with The Lemon Decor. And we offer a variety of packages at AMAZING prices (and I mean soooo good). See our Decor packages on our All-Inclusive Weddings Page.

Our staff will be available to help place and direct certain decor like place cards, signage, and party favors.
We do require a point of contact that is responsible for gathering and taking all customer items at the end of the night. Your event planner will assist you in organizing items that can be placed by our staff and what will need to be assigned to your point of contact. This ensures that all of your items get safely gathered and taken care of.

Yes, we allow candles at the tables as centerpieces and on the ballroom mantel. Everywhere else on the premisses we recommend using LED candles for safety. We'd be happy to help with tapper, votive, cylinder, and even floating LED candles.
