Have a Destination Wedding at The Mod House in the Hudson Valley
Why spend a year planning a wedding only to squeeze the whole experience into five hours?
Take the weekend.
The Mod House is a midcentury modern private estate wedding venue in Ellenville, New York, for couples who want the feeling of a Hudson Valley destination wedding without asking 100 people to get on a plane.
Come upstate. Settle in. Have drinks. Get married. Throw an excellent party. Wake up and do it again over brunch.
A Destination Wedding Near NYC
A destination wedding doesn't have to mean Mexico, Italy or the Caribbean.
The Hudson Valley gives you mountains, small towns, wineries, breweries, great restaurants, antiquing, hiking and plenty of places to disappear for a weekend, all within reach of New York City.
The Mod House sits between the Hudson Valley and Catskills, making it an ideal home base for a destination wedding weekend near NYC.
Friday: Welcome to the Weekend
Skip the formal rehearsal dinner.
Bring in pizza or a food truck. Put on a great playlist. Have cocktails outside. Let everyone meet each other before the wedding begins.
The goal is simple:
This is going to be a very good weekend.
Saturday: Get Married
The Mod House is a 1959 midcentury modern home surrounded by more than three private acres.
Get ready upstairs. Have your ceremony outside. Move to the lawn for cocktails and dinner.
Then head downstairs.
There's a private speakeasy with a bar, lounge and dance floor waiting for you.
No shuttling everyone to an after-party. The after-party is already here.
Sunday: Don't Rush Home
Have brunch. Drink coffee outside. Discuss whatever happened in the speakeasy the night before.
That's the beauty of a wedding weekend: the celebration gets to end naturally instead of when the venue turns the lights on.
Your Own Private Estate
The Mod House doesn't feel like a traditional wedding facility.
It feels like you've somehow acquired an incredible midcentury house in the Hudson Valley and invited everyone you love over.
For couples planning a wedding of up to 125 guests, that intimacy is the luxury.
One house. One very good weekend.
