James Monroe’s Highland

About James Monroe’s Highland

President and Mrs. Monroe shared over 40 years as husband and wife, many of them at their estate they called Highland. Perhaps one of their happiest days was when their eldest daughter, Eliza, was married at their Highland homestead. In the tradition of these historic marriages, James Monroe's Highland warmly invites couples to celebrate their union on the grounds of James and Elizabeth Monroe. A picturesque and historic house with adjacent gardens, Highland offers unique locations for both wedding ceremonies and receptions. Each party is provided optimal privacy and flexibility. We encourage you to welcome your guests to Highland as James and Elizabeth Monroe welcomed theirs. With over 25 years' experience in hosting wedding celebrations, Highland offers a charming, historic backdrop for your special day.
