Testimonials

The day of my wedding was absolutely incredible at the Burden Mansion! Frank who assisted me as my ceremony coordinator was fantastic, and the venue speaks for itself in terms of beauty. Dana, who helped me with the process from start to finish was also wonderful and accommodating. It was a wonderful experience and a jaw dropping gorgeous space.

‟Beautiful venue. A historically protected architectural treasure. No need to travel anywhere as
it is conveniently located on the Upper East side of Manhattan. Our wedding was the Burden mansion which was perfect for an intimate wedding of less than 60 people. The Kahn mansion is even bigger and right next door. Also great setting for pictures. Dana was super helpful. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!”

“We recently got married at the Burden and Kahn mansions and we cannot sing their praises high enough! The entirety of both Mansions is beautiful and stunning. The venue coordinator, Dana, and her staff were great to work with from start to finish. Dana really knows what works best in the spaces, and was a great resource to us throughout our planning and during the execution of our day. Our only regret is that we cannot get married there again!”

My husband and I were planning to have a relatively small wedding. We wanted something classy and elegant. The Otto Kahn mansions is the first and only place we saw and we finalized the venue in a week. All the guests were amazed by the place – it’s just so gorgeous and full of history. Dana is the most wonderful person to work with. She is responsive and very transparent with all the details. We are so lucky to get married there. Also, they don’t charge you extra on a Saturday. All the fees are simple, transparent, basically just per hour! Love it!
