A town owned club in Harrison that began hosting weddings in 2026, with a banquet room its own pages call 250 and 350.
Harrison Meadows is owned by the Town of Harrison, its dining page states that the public is welcomed, and its weddings page says the club is excited to begin hosting weddings and banquets in 2026. Hold on to that last fact. This is a brand new events programme at a club the town took over, and there is no track record to check. The property is the former Willow Ridge Country Club, acquired by the town through eminent domain for $13.65 million. The wedding inquiry form is open, with no membership requirement anywhere on it, which is why we grade the policy as non members welcome rather than open to the public: the club never uses that second phrase about weddings specifically. The banquet room has floor to ceiling windows over the course. How many people it seats depends on which page of the club’s own site you read, because one says 250 and the other says 350. No price of any kind is published, by the club or by The Knot.
There is no price to work from here, first party or marketplace, so treat the inquiry as a pricing call. The capacity conflict matters more than usual, because 250 and 350 are different rooms in practice and only one of them is your wedding. Ask for the seated number with a dance floor, the per person rate by day and season, the service charge, and how tax is applied. Then ask how many weddings the club has run, since the programme began this year.
The club’s home, weddings, weddings and showers, and banquets pages, its Knot listing, a Westchester Magazine article on the town takeover, and the Town of Harrison recreation page, all read on 11 September 2026. Checked September 2026. First party means the business’s own site or rate card. Marketplace means The Knot, WeddingWire, Zola, Wedding Spot or similar. Nothing here is averaged or estimated.
The events programme began in 2026, so there is no track record, and the club’s own pages give two different banquet capacities, 250 and 350.
Harrison Meadows is a municipal operation. The Town of Harrison took the former Willow Ridge Country Club by eminent domain for $13.65 million and runs it, and Westchester Magazine describes the result as semi private, with non resident annual passholders now accepted. The dining page states plainly that the public is welcomed.
That structure is why a couple with no connection to Harrison can inquire here at all. Note where the openness stops: daily fee golf remains limited to Harrison residents and their guests, per the same Westchester Magazine reporting. Your guests can come to the wedding. They may not be able to play the course the next morning.
The club’s own weddings page says it is excited to begin hosting weddings and banquets in 2026. Read literally, that means the first weddings here are happening in the year this page was written. There is no history of a hundred Saturdays to ask about, no long serving maitre d’, no pattern for how the room handles a 200 person dinner.
A new programme can be excellent. It is simply unproven, so change what you ask for. Ask how many weddings the club has actually run, ask who the banquet manager is and how long they have done this work, and ask to see the room dressed instead of empty. A club that is honest about being new will answer all three.
The weddings page states that the banquet room accommodates up to 250 guests. The banquets page states that the banquet space can fit up to 350. Both are first party, both were read on 11 September 2026, and the club has not reconciled them. We print both and we do not average them.
The Knot describes a ballroom up to 250 plus an outdoor patio overlooking the greens for up to 90. If your list sits between 250 and 350, this stops being a detail and becomes the decision. Get the seated number, with a dance floor and a band in the room, confirmed in writing before a deposit.
Three pages carry no money at all: weddings, weddings and showers, and banquets. No per person rate, no package price, no menu price, no room rental, no site fee. No food and beverage minimum, no guest minimum, no service charge, no administrative fee, no statement about tax. The Knot listing carries no price either.
Everything routes through the inquiry form, so the first contact is a pricing contact. Ask for the rate by day and by season, because a new programme often prices its first year differently from its second.
The club states that since opening in 1917 it has been a place where the Harrison community comes together. The site branding simultaneously reads Established 2021. Both appear on the same website and the club has not explained the gap.
The likely reading is that 1917 belongs to the golf course and the property, which The Knot also dates to 1917, while 2021 belongs to the town’s operation of it under this name. We are not asserting that as fact, because the club has not. No course designer is published in any source we checked.
Vendor rules are not published. The Knot says food and catering are handled on site by the club’s own culinary team, and that vendor recommendations come through the club’s network. That is marketplace copy. The club’s own site says nothing at all about outside caterers. End time is not published, though the inquiry form asks you for a start and an end. Rain plan is not published, even though the patio is part of the offer.
Exclusivity is not addressed either. Ask whether the restaurant, the pool and the golf outings keep running while your ceremony happens on the patio. At a municipal club with a public restaurant, that question is more live than usual.
One broken link is worth noting: the membership options page returned a 404 on 11 September 2026. It has no bearing on a wedding, but it suggests the site is not closely maintained, which is a reason to get your answers in writing.
