“I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Nicole, Keith, and the Greatful Dane Lodge! My husband, Shaun, and I had our wedding here this past weekend, and I’m so “greatful” that we came across this venue when we did. After touring nearly 10 venues, we were starting to think we would never find the one. As soon as we met Nicole and saw the lodge, we knew this was it. Not only is the pricing genuinely affordable for a wedding, but the venue itself is absolutely stunning. All 55 of our guests were raving about it throughout the entire night! We booked the Destination Wedding Package since most guests were traveling from out of state, and everyone staying on site was comfortable and had plenty of space. From the moment we booked, I never once felt pressured, rushed, or like we were being nickel-and-dimed for every little thing. Nicole and Keith went above and beyond to make our wedding weekend everything we hoped it would be, and I could not be more appreciative of all the work they put in behind the scenes to make it happen. If you’re looking for a venue where you’ll be treated like a person rather than a paycheck, and where the owners genuinely care about making your wedding special, TOUR THIS PLACE!! You’ll fall in love with it just like Shaun and I did. ️️ We truly could not recommend the Greatful Dane Lodge, Nicole, and Keith enough!”

In 2011 we purchased an old dairy farm in a quiet corner of Harrisville, New Hampshire. We cleared fields, planted orchards and gardens, built barns and a commercial kitchen, boiled maple syrup, raised pigs and sheep, and opened a farm store. Our goal was to create a thriving farm that would serve our family, the community, and visitors like you. Today, that dream is a reality. Mayfair Farm offers a complete special events package that is truly unique. With our inspiring views, welcoming barn, and farm-to-table menu, your family and friends will share a one-of-a-kind experience. Our menu is hand-crafted and ethically produced, and each item is made with the most important ingredient—love. And, as our client, you will enjoy the benefits of flexibility and collaboration as we guide you through each step of the event-planning process.

“The Perfect Combination of Beauty, Comfort, and Efficiency We were married at Mayfair Farm on Labor Day weekend 2025. We had about 130 guests. We had many requirements regarding food, drink, comfort of guests, the ceremony, and meals. It’s hard to imagine a host with greater caring, talent, taste, and efficiency than Sarah, the owner. Everything was perfect, even beyond perfect, like a dream! Facility: Mayfair Farm is a beautiful venue. The custom-designed barn was perfect for dining, dancing, serving, and preparation. The firepit right outside the barn made for memorable gatherings, especially on a chilly evening, and with the fun of preparing S’more’s for the guests over the fire. The scenery is gorgeous, particularly the top-of-the-hill ceremony spot surrounded by New Hampshire hills and mountains. The gorgeous view and natural setting added much to the wedding experience. The short walk up the hill to the ceremony hilltop was easy, and elderly guests were driven up without any issue. The barn and farm have professional kitchens so that preparing and serving a meal for 130 people went off without any issues. There was plenty of parking for guests. There is an AirBnB on-site where we stayed and got ready. It was comfortable and great for the hair/make-up preparations before the ceremony. Sarah made her entire facility available to us for the entire weekend—this made things highly convenient and relaxing. For meals, they helped us arrange for a beautiful tent to be set up right outside the barn, so we could use the barn for dancing. The table set-up was gorgeous, which contributed to a memorable, emotionally touching event. Planning: Sarah is a total professional, with the taste and experience to make our event as perfect as we had hoped for. Interacting with Sarah was a pleasure. She is kind, creative, and deeply cares about our hopes for the day and making them come to fruition. She made terrific suggestions on logistics and food, and was creative and responsive in iterating until we finalized the menus. She specializes in farm-to-table food, with local farmers, and this made everything healthy and delicious. She assisted us with vendors (e.g., flowers, tent, wedding planner, bartender, toilets) who provided excellent services. Sarah has a staff of efficient, trusted people who know just what to do, while at the same time exuding warmth and friendship while working. Whatever tension might be present on a wedding day, these workers diffused it and made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. This is huge and played a big role in the perfection of our wedding weekend. Day-of Excellence: All of the above contributed to a wedding weekend that seemed effortless for us and our guests, and of course we saw and understood the tremendous amount of teamwork, talent, and effort went on behind the scenes. We felt relaxed, as did our parents and guests. We all enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere and the meaningful, beautiful gathering, ceremony, and celebration. Bottom Line: Mayfair Farm and Sarah provide a specialized offering unlike any other, and at a reasonable price. If you want a wedding in a rural setting, with farm-to-table food prepared to perfection, and a flawless, relaxed ‘vibe’ to the day, look no further. The bonus is that we felt cared for, we saw our vision come to life under Sarah’s supervision, and we saw Sarah’s employees and vendors enthusiastically and efficiently make everything happen perfectly. Highest recommendation.”

“Our wedding at Field to Fork Farm felt like something out of a dream. Patrick and Daniela poured so much heart and soul into every detail — and when the skies suddenly opened up just as our ceremony was about to begin, they didn’t hesitate for a second. They welcomed all 75 of our guests into their home, offering warm homemade bread and cheese as we waited for the storm to pass. What could have been a moment of chaos instead became one of the most beautiful memories of our entire day — laughter and comfort shared in their cozy kitchen as rain fell softly outside. When the clouds finally cleared, we stepped out into the field to have the outdoor ceremony we had envisioned all along. The air felt fresh and full of magic, and from that moment on, the night unfolded perfectly — dancing, joy, and love all around us beneath the glow of the tent lights. Patrick and Daniela’s kindness, warmth, and grace made our day what it was — not just a wedding, but a feeling we’ll carry with us forever. If we could do it all over again, we’d choose Field to Fork Farm a thousand times over. It was everything we dreamed of, and more.”

“We found this venue after searching, searching, and searching for the wedding location of our dreams. And then we saw it… It wasn’t finished yet, but just from the vision and the photos of what it was going to look like, we were already in love. It had everything we wanted: a beautiful indoor space to get ready, big windows that connected the inside with the outside, and the option to host cocktail hour outdoors. It was exactly what we had dreamed of both indoor and outdoor spaces in one perfect place. From the pictures we knew it was special, but when we saw it in person… it was even more beautiful! Everything is luxurious and so well taken care of. Honestly, you don’t need extravagant decorations because the venue itself is the decoration—it has everything you need and more. From sewing kits and pins to fix your dress, to a toothbrush everything you wouldn’t even expect is already there. It’s fully equipped and thoughtfully prepared. And we can’t talk about this venue without mentioning Kim, the owner. She is incredibly hardworking, kind, and so patient throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, she helped us in so many ways. She was there from the beginning, attentive to every detail. Her service is beyond what you expect truly above and beyond. Everything was clear from the start no surprises, just honesty and professionalism. Choosing this venue was, without a doubt, the best decision we made. Everything went smoothly, everything was beautiful. I would get married there a million times over. In fact… I want to get married there again! Thank you for making our day unforgettable.”

“From the first time we met with Kristen, we were impressed by her transparent and honest communication style. Kristen was extremely professional, empathetic, and timely in all aspects of the planning processing including addressing any issues that came up. Kristen's experience and warm personality made us feel comfortable amidst the whirlwind of wedding day. We couldn't have asked for a better or more attentive planner, we felt like her only couple. During our wedding we had the pleasure of meeting and working with her husband, who was equally kind and supportive with a shared passion and commitment to making couples dreams come to life.

“We are SO grateful that Claudine was a part of our big day. We worked with Claudine as the day of coordinator for our June wedding, but she helped us with much more than that. We knew Claudine and her assistants meant business as soon as they walked in with name tags and big smiles. There was truly a lot to keep track of the entire day— from directing lawn games in the afternoon and ferry departures in the evening, to the unexpected added duty of cake cutting and serving, Claudine was on top of it in every aspect. She was highly organized, very professional, and went above and beyond the entire time. Everything ran so smoothly thanks to her and it truly couldn't have been a better day!”

“We are so happy we stumbled on Tumbledown Farms for our wedding! The barn itself is exactly the rustic vibe we were going for - it’s spacious, airy (the huge ceiling fan was so nice for the summer) and full of twinkle lights! We paid extra to have our ceremony in the pasture - DO IT!! The Highland cows (yes…cows!!!) were witnesses to our wedding and it was such a fun touch for the guests to hang with them during cocktail hour! Kelsee - the venue manager - is absolutely amazing. She was able to answer every random question I threw her way, and helped to setup the space exactly how we wanted it! She’s also been renovating, and for our wedding we had both a bridal suite and grooms suite on site, which was perfect! I’d 100% plan another event there. I highly recommend this venue - for its charm, the cows (duh), and especially the people that work there!!”

Set in a beautifully renovated and restored 100-year old barn overlooking rolling hills of conservation land, the Barn at Gibbet Hill is one of New England’s most unique venues for weddings and special events. The Barn offers rustic elegance with unparalleled views. The first wedding at The Barn at Gibbet Hill took place in 2002 when Jed and Asia’s fantastic outdoor wedding plans got rained out. Back then the Barn was completely unrenovated – hay bales were moved to the edge of the room and the tractor had to be parked outside so a makeshift wedding aisle could be made. After witnessing the undeniable magic of that day, the idea to transform the Barn into a permanent wedding venue began to take hold. Two years later, after a massive renovation of the Barn was completed, The Barn officially opened for business. And two years after that, CBS-4 crowned the Barn the best wedding venue in the Boston Area!

“We found the Barn when searching for an all-inclusive yet customizable venue (so our wedding would feel like us), with good food and staff that would make the day feel seamless. LGBTQ friendly was a must. Ultimately, we’re so grateful we picked Gibbet Hill! Furthermore, having a daytime celebration allowed us to have the wedding we wanted within our budget. Overall, the Barn’s team was genuinely invested in making our vision come to life, and they more than delivered on our big day. From our very first intake and tour, we knew we were in good hands. Our planner, Bree, was with us from the beginning, answering every question with warmth and confidence that immediately put us at ease. Throughout the planning process she was professional, responsive, and just fun to work with. We also picked many of the Barn’s preferred vendors, who all spoke highly of one another so it was clear they had great experience and flow as a cross-vendor team. On the day itself, the entire Barn staff operated with a calming efficiency that made everything feel effortless. They had a grounding presence that kept us on track without ever making us feel rushed and that tone made an enormous difference. Our top notch team, including Bree, Sarah, Jess, and so many other amazing staff also helped with our dresses, carried our trains, drove us in a golf cart for photos, and took wonderful care of our guests throughout the reception (who commented on how well they were looked after). We even found out afterward that the team had helped our flower girl tend to a wasp sting during the festivities. That kind of attentiveness speaks volumes. Any issue that arose they handled with utmost professionalism. Also, the food was fantastic and we STILL get so many compliments from guests! Our personal goal as the couple was to enjoy the food and that we did. One highlight for us was also the “reserved for newlyweds” appetizer plate brought to us in the bridal suite. Such a thoughtful touch. We cannot recommend The Barn, Bree, and the entire team highly enough. If you’re looking for a venue where you’ll feel genuinely cared for from the first conversation to the final exit, this is the place. Thank you so much to the staff at the Barn at Gibbet Hill for making our wedding so special!”
