Rising from ancient magnolia trees, the Woodruff-Fontaine House stands as a reminder of an era long gone. This beautiful FrenchVictorian mansion was built in 1870 along “Millionaires Row.” The mansion, home to two prominent Memphis families, was deeded to the city in 1936 and stood vacant for several years. The Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities rescued the house in 1962 and restored it to its former splendor.

As the evening approaches and the shadows lengthen, the atmosphere in the lovely courtyard and wisteria arbor of the Woodruff-Fontaine House takes you back to a more peaceful time in Memphis, the Victorian era. You and your guests may enjoy this peaceful setting for your wedding, reception, anniversary, or a host of other events.
