Below is a list of amenities that are available to you to ensure that your event goes flawlessly…
  • Exclusive use of the historically registered property at the top of Mount Adams dedicated solely to your event—no other events or ceremonies will be scheduled.
  • Exclusive use of the private, well-manicured grounds with unlimited access to surrounding views and property for unique photo opportunities, select gatherings, guest cocktail hours or memorable ceremonies.

  • Exclusive use of the Bride’s Suite & Private Powder Room for the bride’s comfort in addition to private use of the Groom’s Room & Bridal Staging Area.
  • Full access to abundant, well lighted, free parking—a notable feature in Mount Adams.
  • Upon guest arrival, a Monastery attendant will be stationed at the top of Pavilion Street & St. Paul intersection to direct guests. Plus, personalized signage at St. Gregory & Pavilion will be included to direct guests to the property’s private parking.
  • Professional coordination & scheduled early admittance for all vendors or sub-contractors providing goods or services for your event.
  • Personalized menu cards created, professionally printed and set on Gold or Silver charger plates at each place setting.
  • The Monastery provides etched personalized champagne flutes for the Bride & Groom as keepsakes. Notably, your champagne toast features The Monastery’s private labeled “Golden Wedding” bubbly. This is historically significant because Nicholas Longworth (1830, “The Father of the American Wine Industry”), purchased land in Mount Adams for vineyards where he produced America’s first sparkling wine called “Golden Wedding”. It achieved recognition and awards across the Atlantic. This piece of history is unique to your special event and is memorialized in your glass flutes.
  • Advanced planning assistance, customized room set up and professional event coordination detailing all aspects of your special event. Dedicated, experienced Executive Chef and Culinary staff; skilled banquet captains; TIPS certified bartenders. Professional orchestration of all elements.
  • The property is on the historic registry and it is being vigilantly kept intact. Additionally, it has been awarded LEED Certification through a careful restoration focused upon the environment. The USGBC states LEED properties save “resources and have a positive impact on the health of occupants, while promoting renewable, clean energy.” It is meaningful to a community when the interests of historic preservation can lock arms with the concerns for safeguarding the environment and advance together into a better future—honoring the past and respecting our children’s future. [USGBC: “LEED stands for green building leadership transforming the way we think about how buildings & communities are maintained and operated across the globe.”]
