First Floor

Indoor events are highlighted by the eclectic and exotic European decor of the historic home: marble floors and fireplaces, gilded mirrors, antique lamps, and oriental carpets. The full first floor has a capacity for about 80 standing or 50 seated guests who can move between the Greenhouse and Turquoise (dining) rooms, the Grand Foyer, the Living Room and the heated the East Porch. A popular scene is that of the newly wed couple strolling down the open mahogany staircase to the applause of their guests. A sound system is available for the music of your choice.

The East Porch features french doors opened in the warmer months. The porch adjoins the Living Room and the Mediterranean Courtyard

Living Room

The living room is inspired after that of the gallery of Mirrors at Versailles. Also features marble fireplace, antique lamps, and a Thonet sitting group.

Foyer

The foyer of Melange has much of the old French character left: Oriental carpets on the marble floor, ornate mirrors, an antique crystal chandelier and an accenting green curtain.
