I couldn’t be more grateful to Marc, their staff and the entire Siragusa family for helping to create the most magical night of our lives. Marc was the best person I could ever hope to work with to create the wedding of my dreams. He was very responsive, professional, friendly and made the planning process a breeze! He coordinated with all of the vendors, made sure everyone understood the timeline and took care of all of the little details to ensure everything went smoothly. Him and his staff exceeded my expectations in creating the vision I had for our big day - it was absolutely stunning! My vision was a rustic & elegant style wedding - and they blew that out of the water, I received so many compliments on how beautifully everything was set up for our wedding! The staff were also extremely friendly and on the ball with everything, I am beyond impressed with the Westbrook Inn and their staff. The value that you get with the tent, bar, staff, chairs/tables, set up/break down, coordination and so much more is extremely rare to find around here. They recently hosted a micro wedding reception for my brother and also did a fantastic job. Needless to say, I will continue to use The Westbrook Inn for all our future special events - 10/10 would recommend!

Having your own 100-acre private lakeside resort for the weekend makes a great wedding venue.

Our site, facilities, and setting match almost any wedding venue in the northeast, and our food and customer service is outstanding.

  • Full catering menu to choose from
  • Provides a dedicated team on-site

  • Best for events with big guest lists
Choosing Camp Cody as our wedding venue was a huge decision and an excellent choice. Anna was so helpful throughout the process, and Dora was amazing weekend of–I never saw her standing still. The venue is so gorgeous, and being able to host our friends and family for a whole weekend made everything go by more slowly, with plenty of opportunities to connect with everyone. The Capture the Flag game we held morning of was a big highlight. The food was INCREDIBLE, and our guests haven’t stopped commenting on it. Everyone says you don’t eat at your wedding, and you better believe that was not true for us. As a person with a lot of food allergies, I’ve never felt more cared for and accommodated, and it was amazing to have that for our guests as well. In one notable moment, my cousin with celiac jumped with joy at the prospect of having gluten free pancakes and french toast for breakfast. The accommodations were comfortable, even in 30-40 degree temps overnight, the heat really works! Staying on site and not having to run around everywhere looking for everything and everyone made a big difference as someone without a planner. Also, arranging folks in cabins was not as stressful as we expected it to be. With our smaller wedding, we had plenty of space to spread people out. Thank you again to White Mountain Weddings for an amazing weekend!
