A Simple, Transparent Introduction to Pricing for Weddings

This is designed to give you clarity—without overwhelming you

At the Alton Mill, we don’t offer traditional wedding packages. Instead, we provide inclusive venue pricing with the flexibility to design a day that feels like you.

Venue Rental Investment

Wedding venue rental typically ranges from:

$7,500 — $8,500

Pricing varies based on:

  • Time of year
    Our peak season is May through October, but we’re happy host weddings year-round. Weddings held from November through April may benefit from 10% to 20% savings

  • Day of the week
    We know Saturdays are golden, but couples considering less in-demand days can save up to 20%

  • Use of the Annex Courtyard
    While it’s one of our most popular spaces, we know that some couples may not want to include it. This tented space is the difference between $7,500 and $8,500.

  • Guest count
    Couples planning an intimate affair of 50 or fewer attendees are offered a discounted rate of $4,750

This investment reflects exclusive event use of a multi-space heritage property — not just a single room.
