Open in Maps →1005 Cathedral Rd, Bryn Athyn, PA
5:00 – 11:00 PM
A historic estate with gardens and terraces, about 45 minutes from the church. Cocktails, dinner, and dancing into the evening. Free parking on site.
Open in Maps →The church and reception are about 45 minutes apart, with a few unhurried hours in between. Take your time getting from Villanova to Bryn Athyn — a few ideas along the way.
Steps from the reception, the soaring Bryn Athyn Cathedral and castle-like Glencairn Museum are open into the afternoon — worth seeing even from the grounds.
Minutes from the church: a walkable main street of cafes and shops, and the historic Wayne Hotel bar — an easy place to relax before heading north.
Plenty of spots for a late lunch or coffee, roughly between the two venues. (Dinner isn't until the evening, so a snack is a good idea.)
Prefer to take it slow? Head to your hotel, freshen up, and arrive at Cairnwood relaxed and ready for cocktails at five.
Arriving Friday? Join us for drinks at The Radnor Hotel to kick off the weekend together.
