About Greystone Mansion

Beautiful Greystone Mansion, located in glamorous Beverly Hills, is an iconic piece of Los Angeles history. Built in 1928 by architect Gordon Kaufman, the mansion belonged to the oil tycoon Doheny family. At the time of construction, the Greystone Mansion was worth four million dollars, the most expensive home in all of California. The city of Beverly Hills purchased the mansion in 1965, and from then on the 46,000 square-foot home on 16 acres of land became a public park, a site for renowned events like the Annual Hollywood Ball, and a filming location for various blockbuster movies. And it will be the perfect spot for your Beverly Hills wedding.
