Northampton House Gardens

We have been getting just a touch of warm weather here and all the sunshine is making me hungry for spring! Our hedges in the garden are starting to perk up and I am itching to go outside and plant our first patches of early spring flowers.


To get everyone excited about spring and summer I am putting up some photos of the gardens last year- I have shots of our rose arbor, our water fountain, the gazebo, and (of course) some of our spring and summer brides!

Awesome Catering

Today I would like to take a moment to brag about the food at Northampton House. This past month I have been working on updating our reception menu and I am sooo excited about how awesome all the food on it is!

Let me just list a few of my favorites:

Crepe Bars:
This is a live action station. Your guests get to watch our employees make each crepe fresh for you. Sweet crepes - we let you build your own crepe with all the different goodies from fresh fruit, puddings, whipped cream, dulce de leche, and even nutella!

As the French would say: Bon Appetit!


Northampton House Made Dessert Bars:
Chewy Apple-Cinnamon, White Chocolate Blondie, Double Chocolate, Raspberry Shortbread, Lemon, and Sweet Cherry. These are basically terrible because they are absolutely the wrong size to stop eating and taste too perfect. They are two delicious bites each - which means I don't start feeling guilty about eating them until I've eaten WAY too many.



Hors D’oeurves Platter:
Decadent and fancy this includes savory finger foods - To get your appetites wet I'll just say this includes items such as: Tomato Basil Bruschetta, Cheese and Crackers, Vegetables and Dip, Fresh Fruit trays, and Meatballs skewers dipped on tangy orange sauce
... 


Have I even mentioned our Plated Cheesecakes? Warm crisps and cobblers? Or our awesome Soft Pretzel Buffet?

Our Winter Scenery


Northampton House is striking in the winter with red brick against a frosty white backdrop. Yesterday we had some lingering fog here and all the trees and bushes were flocked with snow. I got some really fun pictures of Northampton House surrounded by a winter wonderland!  

This is a great shot of Northampton House's south facing entry. It is one of my favorites - love the snowflakes drifting down in front of the building.
