The setting
“My Cousin had her wedding at this location this month, and I thought this was very cute, with a rustic style look and feel.”
“Chrisman Manor was exactly what we were looking for - a beautiful outdoor space, an indoor chapel if needed, and a separate, elegant room for the reception.”
“We had the most beautiful wedding rehearsal outdoors in the Wilshire courtyard which set us up for flawless wedding ceremony at the pond the following evening.”
“The only thing I would suggest from a photographer, and no deductions here, is to add some trees to the west of the outdoor ceremony space.”

From the reviews
We loved our wedding at Chrisman Manor so much! From our first visit and tour with Kyrstan we knew we wanted to get married here! We were between dates but ended up scheduling our NYE wedding which was a blast! We loved having the Pinterest closet to explore and help with our decorating budget.
The ladies at Chrisman Manor were such a joy to work with! They were more than willing to let us visit the venue as many times as we needed to help us visualize our day! The venue itself is beautiful! The bridal suite is MASSIVE! Luckily, my bridal party of 8 could comfortably fit, including more!
My Cousin had her wedding at this location this month, and I thought this was very cute, with a rustic style look and feel. Pretty decent in size, had 2 patio areas one in the back and another of to the side. It's perfect for a small to medium size group event.
My husband and I had our dream wedding day at Chrisman Manor. The venue is absolutely beautiful and the addition of The Wilshire on property takes the venue over the top! Kyrstan is so amazing to work with - she was incredibly flexible, professional, and understanding of the craziness of the wedding industry.
Getting married at Chrisman Manor
Chrisman Manor comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
