Saphire Estate was the perfect venue for our wedding! We were looking for something sophisticated and romantic with an indoor space as beautiful as the outdoor space in case of inclement weather. The wooded path, garden area, and lake are perfectly manicured for amazing pictures and the food was delicious! Kayla, Sydney, and Jeanine went above and beyond to make our day extra special!!

If you are looking for a classic historic mansion in Boston to host a wedding this is the place. We had our wedding reception here and everything was perfect, from the food to the decor. We worked with Sydney and she was the best in responding to all of my questions. She was very polite and made sure the day ran smoothly. Our wedding was beautiful, more than 75% of our guest were visiting from out of town and really enjoyed Hampshire House. We keep hearing from our friends and family how delicious the food was and they were so full at the end of the night they barely had room for wedding cake. Sydney and her staff are very professional and made sure everyones allergies were addressed, everyone was very pleased with the service. The night flowed so smoothly, I could not have asked for anything better.

We had our wedding here in August 2023 and it was absolutely perfect. Finding a venue (while living out of state) was the most stressful part of wedding planning - once we booked with Endicott, everything got SO much easier. We worked primarily with Erin, who is just so lovely! She gave us a bunch of recommendations - we booked almost all of our vendors from her (extensive) list. This made it super easy because most everyone knew the venue and were able to chat logistics months in advance. I don’t need to tell you how stunning this place is, but it truly was magical. The whole property was ours for the day, so the wedding party came in early to get ready and relax. Plus, we had a space for my husband and I to take a private moment after the ceremony. The grounds have so many locations for photos. They also have space in the basement for you to drop off your stuff (we had lots of decorations and provided all of our own alcohol) a few days before the actual wedding - total lifesaver. We ended up having about a hundred guests, which I think is probably the limit for an indoor reception. You could squeeze a few more tables, but it was pretty tight as it was. Any more than that and I’d say get a tent for the lawn. The last thing to mention is the price. Endicott Estate is really affordable, especially since you get to choose your own vendors. We ended up saving SO much money by skipping the venues with in-home catering and just booking everything separately. And you get the whole property for the day without breaking the bank. It’s not as “convenient” to organize everything yourself, but Erin and Kathleen helped us through every step of the process. You can tell that the staff at Endicott really enjoys what they do. Everything was fabulous and I’d highly recommend booking this venue!

Whatever special occasion you’re planning (in our case it was our wedding), look no further!!! I don’t think we could have ever envisioned a more perfect location in our wildest dreams----The hardwood floors, the cement walls, the openness of it all....those windows!! There wasn't a guest the whole night who wasn't equally as in awe as we were. Being in the Salem area for Halloween weekend was just the perfect cherry on top for our wedding vibe/vision. What's the catch? Being a blank slate was a little overwhelming for us at times, but made manageable by our amazing team of vendors. Olio was the perfect stage (pun intended) to bring our unique touch to every aspect of the day, and we couldn't be more grateful to have such an incredible backdrop. With the help of Sarah, that process of bringing it all together was as smooth as it could have been. We can’t recommend this venue enough.

From a wedding photographer's perspective, Willowdale Estate and its staff are absolutely top notch in terms of hospitality, attention to detail, and genuine care for their clients, guests, and vendors! Every interaction with their staff is warm and kind, completely driven by their desire to take care of everyone that visits the property. The events that I have photographed at Willowdale, both hosted by shared clients and other wedding creatives, have been extraordinarily memorable! I would highly recommend that couples consider Willowdale Estate for their wedding celebrations!

As a full time wedding DJ for a while, I've seen most venues in central Massachusetts. Nothing compares to Harrington Farm. The staff is attentive, detail oriented and is committed to creating the perfect day for couples. The building itself is perfect with a barn feel, cozy in the winter with the fireplace and stunning in the fall, spring and summer - sunsets and golden hour photos are unmatched. The ceremony spaces are just the right size with well thought-out landscaping. Cocktail hour in the Sperry Tent is magical with cool shade in the summer and just the right amount of ambiance. Inside the barn, the post and beam structure is gorgeous and the dance floor size is exactly right for an awesome party. The layout of the room makes it natural for guests to enjoy the music and still be able to talk with each other. As a self-proclaimed expert in wedding food, Harrington Farm is the one everyone else tries to match. If you're looking for a wedding venue that does it all and is the best around, look no further.
