About Us
StoneHurst at Hampton Valley is a unique spot nestled on a 90+ acres of land with not just one but TWO amazing venues.
​
The Mansion at StoneHurst and The Barns at StoneHurst are two different venues for two different types of couples on their special day.
​
Each venue comes with their own parking lot, ceremony site and bridal/grooms suites – we believe that no bride should see another on their special day and we have worked extremely hard to ensure we keep it that way.
If you wish to be the only wedding on property that day, that is also available with our Full Buyout option! This is where you use the mansion suites to get ready, enjoy cocktail hour in our mansion and then trolley ride down to the barns for an evening of dinner and dancing!
Jenna Hayward
General Manager
As the General Manager here at StoneHurst at Hampton Valley what I thought could only ever be a dream came to reality when our owner allowed me to take the reins and design a wedding venue with the wants and needs I thought people were looking for. Originally from Long Island and now living close by in Canterbury with my husband Rob and my children Madison and Carter, I was able to use my experiences in both places to bring together the most unique barn and mansion I think CT has to offer.
​
As a full in-house catering venue not only can I promise that we will provide the perfect backdrop to your special day but I can also promise that the event coordination as well as cuisine, cocktails and service will be top notch as I can honestly say, it doesn't get much better than our StoneHurst team.
We pride ourselves on helping you plan your wedding from start to finish, from helping you with outside vendors, décor, food, coordination, drinks, setup, cleanup - I can say that we truly do everything for you. Your only job the day of your wedding will be to show up, relax in the suites and take it all in.
I hope you enjoy StoneHurst at much as I do! I look forward to seeing you here soon! Xo, Jenna
Kasey Beckwith
Event Coordinator
Originally from Franklin, CT, I grew up on a small farm in a small town with a family rooted in small business and, of course, as a teenager I couldn’t wait to leave. But life has a funny way of teaching you and helping you grow. Now, after all the traveling and moving around, I live just a town away and couldn’t be happier to raise my kids on this small town life! We live in a big old
farmhouse with chickens, dogs, cats and a big garden.
What I Love about Stonehurst: Finding my place on the events team at Stonehurst felt like serendipity! I spent several years coordinating smaller events at a local winery but I always dreamed of weddings. When a position opened up at Stonehurst and I walked through the doors for my interview, it was like a meeting with friends at the most magical, beautiful space; created for EXACTLY what brides dream of. As soon as I witnessed a wedding, and the Stonehurst team in action, I knew I wanted to be a part of the magic.

Hi, I’m Siara Kotlyarenko I’ve worked at Stonehurst for 4 years now and even got married here myself! I’m a jack of all trades. Server, wife, a mom, and occasionally a
“house woman” for the night.
I’m the calm energy, clear communication, and hard work behind every successful event. I take pride in making the planning process smooth, stress-free, and genuinely
enjoyable! I love what I do, and nothing makes me happier than seeing couples truly present and relaxed on their big day!

I am a resident of Preston, CT and enjoy the life that New England brings with its four seasons. When i’m not spending time with my two dogs, Loki and Big, traveling or spending time with family is an important part of my life. I’m enjoying watching my niece grow and learn.
What I love about Stonehurst: Being part of one of the biggest days of peoples lives and helping their vision come to life. Our team is one of the best. We always work together to make your dreams come true!

Samantha Sheldon
Event Coordinator
I am a local to the area and have been a proud member of the Stonehurst team for many years. I have dabbled in most every position at the venue before making my way to coordinating.
With a bubbly personality, a flair for details, and a passion for love stories, I bring energy, charisma, and creativity to every celebration. Whether it’s an intimate
gathering or a grand affair, I thrive on turning “I do” dreams into stress-free, unforgettable moments - with a lot of laughs and a little sparkle along the way.
