Built in 1911 for Charles Lindley
The Historic Lindley-Scott House
About us page
The Historic Lindley-Scott House has been serving the San Gabriel Valley and surrounding areas since 1978 with personalized weddings, wedding receptions, Banquet Facilities, and Catering. Our Wedding Chapel is open year-round, located in the city of Azusa close to the San Gabriel Mountains on 4 acres of lush gardens.
The Lindley-Scott House was built in 1911 for Charles Lindley, president of the Foothill Ranch. In 1924, Mabelle Scott Anderson, owner of the Mabelle Scott Rancho School for Girls, acquired the house. Later, the residence was named after these two owners, who left a historic impression on the estate and the community.
The house and grounds are maintained with an eye to preserving this history. As a time capsule to the past, gardens, rockwork, house, and elegant, winding driveway are little changed from that day in 1911 when construction finished. Between the Lindley Scott House and the Carriage House, an original hitching post stands where the family readied its horse drawn coach before the era of the motor vehicle.
Wedding ceremonies and receptions are held in dedicated areas on site. The ceremony itself is held on the front lawn of the residence, amidst its expanse of lawn and venerable, old trees, including a majestic cypress and an expansive California Live Oak. Certain rooms inside the residence are available for photography for the bride and her bridesmaids before the ceremony. This area contains a foyer featuring antique furniture, and a grand staircase leading to the Victorian-style dressing room. This wedding area has been situated to facilitate the bride’s arrival by horse-drawn carriage or antique automobile.
The Carriage House, built in 2003, seats 200 guests, and matches the architectural vision of the Lindley-Scott House. The reception site is a two minute walk from the ceremony area. Once the ceremony concludes, guests will follow the enchanting path through the gardens to the carriage house, where they will take their seats to enjoy refreshments from the bar while the bridal party finishes their photography.
