Overview
The Music Room (now known as the Hamlin Room) has an elaborate beaux-arts plaster ceiling with musical motifs. Sliding or pocket doors originally opened the Music Room to the Entrance Hall allowing music to be heard through out the house. Today the opening has been walled in but the oak-paneled side of the pocket doors with hardware removed has been incorporated into the Entrance Hall wall. Post & Hamlin rooms combined can host 120 guests for a wedding ceremony with a center aisle and 145 for a wedding ceremony holding the ceremony in between the two rooms.
