AERIN x Mayflower Inn Holiday Experience

AERIN x Mayflower Inn Holiday Experience

A Festive Collaboration

This holiday season, the Mayflower Inn & Spa, Auberge Collection, will be transformed into a winter wonderland through an exclusive collaboration with AERIN, the luxury lifestyle brand founded by Aerin Lauder. 

Known for its timeless New England charm, the Mayflower in Washington will take on a new level of seasonal splendor as AERIN’s effortless elegance graces every detail—from an 18-foot Christmas tree trimmed with vintage glass ornaments to whimsical folk-inspired decor, and a children’s tree sparkling with toys and treasures.

Guests can experience the holidays in true AERIN style through curated touches throughout the property, including a limited-edition AERIN x Mayflower ornament available exclusively to guests. The inn’s Signature King Suite with Library becomes the AERIN Suite, complete with Aerin Lauder–selected décor, bespoke amenities, and a signed copy of her book, Living with Flowers, for December stays.

For a more intimate celebration, the Private Fireside Fête offers an elegant five-course dining experience in the AERIN Library, where floral tablescapes and seasonal dishes set the stage for an unforgettable evening.

The partnership culminates with an AERIN Holiday Trunk Show & Pop-Up on December 5 and 6, featuring giftable treasures from AERIN’s world of beauty, fashion, and home. This inspired collaboration invites guests to celebrate the season beautifully in the heart of the Connecticut countryside. —auberge.com/mayflower
