For almost 20 years, Onteora has been hosting weddings. Over that time, we have made many renovations and additions to the site to provide a flexible and accommodating space precisely attuned to the unique needs of weddings.
This 5 page " walkthrough" takes you through a scenario of how weddings work here, and give you some idea of what you and your guests will experience. While every wedding here has its unique aspects, what you see here can provide a solid framework for your own personal wedding planning.
Onteora was built in the late 1920’s as the summer estate of mayonnaise millionaire Richard Hellmann. It’s located on the side of Mount Tycetonik, in the middle of the Catskill Mountain Preserve, 8 miles from the famous town of Woodstock.
