Even though Derby is Connecticut's smallest city in size, it is a great place for a wedding, as it was recently named an "All-America City," and we found some excellent resources to help you with the wedding planning process.

One of Derby's available wedding venues, Grassy Hill Lodge, is the perfect place for a quaint and charming New England wedding, as it features cathedral ceilings, two stone fireplaces, hardwood floors, and charming gardens with waterfalls and a gazebo.

Marie Antoinette Bridal Salon can have you looking picture-perfect on your big day with its couture bridal gowns and veils. It also carries tuxedos, and a selection of wedding invitations and wedding favors.

Derby has both the Naugatuck and Housatonic Rivers flowing through it, and has plenty of beautiful scenery throughout Witeck Memorial Park and Osbornedale State Park, so if you want a natural setting for your engagement or wedding photographs, you will have plenty of open spaces to choose from.

Brozak Photography, a local wedding photography service, has affordable packages for any budget.

In addition to its parks, Derby has some historical areas of interest and museums you can enjoy during your free time, including Derby Green, which is located in the center of the city, Osborne Homestead Museum, Kellogg Environmental Center, and Derby Dam Fishing.
