Romantic Victorian Mansion Wedding Venue in Delaware’s Scenic Auburn Valley

Slip into a storybook moment at Auburn Heights, an 1897 Victorian Queen Anne mansion in Yorklyn. This historic garden wedding venue in Delaware near the Pennsylvania border features wraparound porches, a rose arbor, and museum-preserved interiors. They set the scene for a refined open-air celebration. Imagine posing on the verandah for golden-hour portraits, then wandering the sunporch and patio for cocktails before dining beneath a tented canopy of lights. Here, you will find bride and groom suites, heirloom furnishings, and grounds that photograph beautifully. This Victorian mansion wedding venue in Delaware blends romance, history, and effortless flow from “I do” to last dance.

Make Auburn Heights yours for the day with one-of-a-kind guest experiences.
