Married Among the Pines
An intimate Finger Lakes wedding where your closest people celebrate and stay together all weekend.
Begin Your InquiryOur Own Wedding Happened Here
We know what this weekend feels like
We were married beneath these pines and celebrated in the wildflower meadow just beyond them.
That's why Perry City Manors feels different from a conventional venue: a flexible timeline, one wedding at a time, quiet woods and meadow, a few houses full of the people you love, and room for the slow morning coffee, the long dinner and the last conversation by the fire.
The photographs on this page are from our wedding day.
Three Ways to Celebrate
However your weekend takes shape
Couples use the property in three different ways — and you don't have to hold your wedding here to make Perry City Manors part of your wedding weekend.
Wedding Weekends
The full experience: ceremony and reception on the property, with family and your closest friends staying onsite from Friday through Sunday.
- Ceremony in the pine forest
- Reception in the wildflower meadow
- Barn Manor for getting ready
- Farm Manor & Barn Manor for lodging
- Camp SkyTent tree tents, seasonally
Intimate Weddings & Gatherings
Smaller celebrations, and the gatherings around a wedding that people remember just as fondly.
- Intimate weddings & micro-weddings
- Elopements
- Rehearsal dinners
- Welcome gatherings
- Anniversary celebrations
Wedding Accommodations
Getting married somewhere else in the Finger Lakes? We've hosted many wedding parties, families, and friends attending weddings at other venues.
- A private home base for the weekend
- Room for the wedding party under one roof
- Peaceful, picturesque, and centrally located
- Space for a welcome dinner or a farewell brunch
The Setting
Pines, meadow, and open sky
A stand of jack pines makes a cathedral of the ceremony, tall, quiet and cool even in August. Past the treeline, the wildflower meadow holds the reception.
Barn Manor is where the wedding party gets ready. Fire pits, trails and porches take care of everything in between.
Stay Together
Stay close, all weekend
Celebrate with everyone you love, then let your closest family and friends stay right here.
18
Farm Manor & Barn Manor
Up to 18 overnight guests combined. Real beds throughout, two full kitchens, and porches made for the morning after.
2–3
Camp SkyTent
Tree tents tucked into the woods, May through October, add 2 to 3 guests per tent.
Nearby
For Everyone Else
Additional lodging for other guests is available in Trumansburg and Ithaca.
Finger Lakes
Close to everything worth driving to
Perry City Manors sits just outside Trumansburg, in the Finger Lakes wine region, between Cayuga Lake and Ithaca.
- Taughannock Falls — about five minutes away, and one of the finest wedding photography locations in the region
- Trumansburg village — restaurants, cafés, and shops within a few minutes' drive
- Ithaca & Cornell — roughly twenty minutes
- Cayuga Lake wineries — an easy afternoon for guests arriving early
The Day Itself
What the hours in between look like
Between the ceremony and the last dance there's a whole evening — a bar in the woodshed, friends playing on the porch, a table that won't stop laughing.
Planning Your Wedding

Build your team

For larger weddings we ask that couples work with a professional planner or day-of coordinator. It protects the thing you actually came here for: being present at your own wedding.
