Choosing The Cut in Gloucester was one of our best decisions. The rocky shoreline gave us stunning photos, and the venue was perfect for our reception. The staff were professional, honest, inviting, and accommodating throughout the planning process and on our wedding day. The spacious bridal suite with pro makeup mirrors made getting ready effortless, and the staff went above and beyond by bringing extra stools and a steamer without us even asking.

We had our wedding at the Marriott Long Wharf October 7 2023 and everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Meg Garruto is a true gem and was a dream to work with! We were actually booked at another venue and after some issues we decided we needed to find another venue and actually booked Long Wharf site unseen. Our original venue not working our was the biggest blessing in disguise. The attention to details and the accessibility to answer any questions we had was above and beyond. There was absolutely no stress in wedding planning thanks to Meg and her team. We also were so impressed with the food! From the cocktail hour to late night snacks everything was perfect. Our guests have been raving about the service and the food for the past week! The location of the hotel and the views are worth booking for alone. If you are looking to book a Boston area hotel for your wedding I would seriously consider booking long wharf before it’s too late! We are already looking into visiting for our one year anniversary (and we are not locals!) because we love the hotel so much!

Venezia Restaurant & Events was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, Jen and her team were personable, individualized, and flexible in their communication style. They respected our vision and brought it together effortlessly. Their venue was truly gorgeous, professional, organized, and stunning. Even though we chose winter, Olivia and as excellent in unlocking the dock area for photos and José even grabbed us spare flip flops when needed (without being asked) They handled any issues that came up and communicated with us the whole time. They also were willing to go above and beyond when we needed anything (such as a mishap with our florist) Jen and her team are truly the best! We couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else and look forward to being able to celebrate at the restaurant for the future.

I got married at Lake Pearl in July 2024, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! From start to finish, the entire staff was an absolute dream to work with. They truly held my hand through the whole process, making everything feel so seamless and stress-free. One of the best parts was that the venue included beautiful floral centerpieces and a delicious cake, which took so much coordination off my plate. Their preferred vendors and the staff are like a well-oiled machine, working together flawlessly. Lake Pearl is also the perfect backdrop for photos, with a beach, dock, gardens, and tree-lined forest areas that provide diverse landscapes for stunning photo opportunities. I got married in the new Belvedere building, which is a showstopper filled with great lighting and tons of windows! Getting ready on-site was a wonderful experience, with breakfast and lunch catered to the bridal suite, making for a perfect, relaxed start to the day. From the cocktail hour to the reception, everything went smoothly, and it truly was the best day of my life. A huge thank you to Jules and Janet for making everything perfect! Lake Pearl will always hold a special place in my heart, and I highly recommend it to any couple looking for an unforgettable wedding experience.

We had the most amazing experience at The Lakehouse for our wedding. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was something special—the setting is absolutely beautiful and created the perfect atmosphere for our day.
