We had our wedding at Groveland Fairways by Wedgewood Weddings on 4/26/25! We initially got in contact with Groveland Fairways in the very early part of 2024, and it didn’t take long for us to decide that this was the venue for us! Since booking, the venue changed ownership and became a part of Wedgewood Weddings & Events. WW honored our pre-existing contract we had with Groveland Fairways and the transition was seamless! From the get-go, the WW team set up our planning meeting, details call, final meeting, and rehearsal. We had A LOT of TBDs after our first planning meeting, so thank you to the WW team for your patience! We primarily worked with Nicole, but the whole team was VERY involved. Everyone at Groveland Fairways was professional, organized, accommodating, available, and helpful. I’m originally from CT, so on more than one occasion I’d let the WW team know (with only a few days notice) that my mom was coming up and wanted to stop by the venue to plan things out and visualize the day. We never felt like an inconvenience and the WW team was there for us if we had questions but also let us walk around and do our thing. We planned to get married outside by the arbor (Terrace Garden), but the old saying “April showers bring May flowers” stayed true to its word and we had rain. Fortunately, Groveland Fairways has a beautiful indoors option (Fireside Room) and it worked out perfectly for us. It was a more intimate setting for us and all of our favorite people. WW offers multiple enhancements if you want to elevate your special day or make it more custom to you and your style, but we felt that the venue was simple and beautiful on its own! It fit our 135 guests very comfortably. There are multiple spots around the venue to take pictures - whether it be on the front porch, under the porte cochere, up in the new bridal suite, outside on the putting green, or around the grounds with the arborvitaes and white trellis in the background. We don't have enough good things to say about Groveland Fairways, it's charm, and incredibly thoughtful team! Thank you to everyone at Groveland Fairways, who made this experience SO EASY and our day so special!

From the very beginning, the team at The Granite Rose made the entire planning process feel easy, organized, and joyful. Jillian, Anna, Lily, and Briana were incredible every step of the way. During planning, they were also extremely helpful in working within our budget, helping us get the best possible value while never taking anything away from the guest experience. Everything felt thoughtful, intentional, and worth every penny. We brought in a lot of our own décor and were able to drop everything off the day before. When I arrived on my wedding day and saw the room, I was completely blown away. The setup was absolutely perfect — even better than I could have imagined. As a bride, I felt completely stress-free, knowing every single detail was being handled. A very special shoutout to Jillian, who stayed with us through all of the formalities and made sure the entire day ran smoothly. Her calm, reassuring presence allowed us to truly enjoy every moment without worrying about timelines or logistics. Victoria, the General Manager, is truly exceptional — fun, warm, professional, and incredibly organized. She made the entire experience feel joyful and seamless. Our Banquet Captain, Lucas, ensured everything ran flawlessly. Grace, Michael, Kiara, and Elijan provided amazing service throughout the night. The food was absolutely delicious thanks to Chef Jim and Sous Chef Corey, and Abby was a fantastic bartender who kept the energy high all evening. We also want to highlight our amazing vendors. Laurie from Susanne’s Weddings was so fun to work with and truly saw our vision, bringing it to life beautifully through the florals. Our cake from Jacques Pastries was both stunning and delicious — we especially loved the red velvet top tier. DJ Dan from Main Event kept the dance floor packed all night and played all of our favorite songs. Our hot pink, winter disco ball wedding vision came to life in the most beautiful way. We are forever grateful to The Granite Rose and this incredible team for giving us a day we will cherish forever.

From the moment we first inquired about hosting our wedding at Searles Castle, the team was responsive, attentive, and flexible in accommodating our needs. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a unique and well-appointed space that felt both spacious and intimate for our special day. Shawn and his team went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day went smoothly - they were super accommodating of our guests with mobility issues and I never found myself worrying as the bride, confident that the entire day would flow seamlessly. No request felt too big, and the team was very helpful when we needed direction on what to do. Having the day of coordinator included here is such a big benefit, and they rock at it. While booking we were reading all the five-star reviews for Searles, we knew we were choosing a great venue, but experiencing it firsthand was even better than we could have imagined. I've heard so many horror stories from other brides about their venues, but Searles was organized, attentive, and truly professional throughout the entire process. Not a single thing went wrong. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding day at this beautiful and unique space! Thank you!

We had designated rooms to get ready in, and the food was absolutely out of this world! There are multiple spaces to utilize, including the garden patio—perfect for our cocktail hour—and the main tent for our reception. Another bonus is that the venue is owned by the same company as Popovers, so we were able to order our cake directly and even do a tasting!

Overall - the venue was gorgeous and the food was phenomenal. Our day of wedding coordinator was the one who really knocked the entire day for myself. During pictures she was bringing us all around the venue - wanted me to take pictures in front of guests arriving - I ended up with mulch all in my dress even before walking down the aisle … overall that 30 minutes in time really left a bad taste in my mouth about the place. Another thing that wasn’t great was the coordination of other events at the venue. As my father and I were just about to walk down the aisle - another party was leaving their event and walking in our path. Not great to take away from our special moment. However - the food at this venue was absolutely phenomenal - guests are still raving about it from the apps to the starters to the dessert and late nights everything was amazing! I would say the venue needs to communicate better with not only the bride and groom but with the vendors they hire as they approach their event - as well as plan time for multiple events so there is not a cross over.

On the day of the wedding, Tammy was excellent in making sure everything went seamlessly - we were even able to have a signature cocktail that our guests raved about. Our friends and family loved the two-story layout of the barn, which created a really unique and memorable atmosphere. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our special day. Highly recommend the Smith Barn at Brooksby Farm!

Finding the perfect spot for our rehearsal dinner felt like searching for a hidden gem. We needed a venue that could comfortably hold 150 guests, offered a delicious menu, and had a charming atmosphere. Thankfully, our hunt led us to Portsmouth Gas Light's 3rd floor! From the moment we stepped into this beautiful downtown building (conveniently close to a parking garage!), we knew it was special. But what truly made the night unforgettable was Michelle, the Function Manager. Michelle was an absolute rockstar! She helped us navigate everything with ease, from handling dietary restrictions to selecting the perfect menu options and ensuring all our needs were met. The entire function team was professional and attentive, making the whole evening flow seamlessly. And let's not forget the food! It was incredible. Our guests raved about everything they tried. We highly recommend Portsmouth Gas Light for any event. If you're looking for a place with charm, delicious food, and amazing staff, look no further!

My now wife and I were searching high and low for a wedding venue that would be something different than the typical wedding cookie cutter experience. We wanted a venue that was like no other and that our family and friends fell in love with. We came across The Bell Inn and it was truly the greatest find. The beautifully restored historical property locally located in a beautiful north shore city was truly a gem to find. The inn is so picturesque and also located steps away from downtown Peabody which provided even more beautiful backgrounds for photographs. As if the gorgeous property that photographs beautifully wasn’t enough, the food is superb, and the staff is incredibly accommodating, kind and go above and beyond. Every request and inquiry we made was met with a smile that exceeded my wife and I’s expectations. The moment we walked through the door we knew that this was the place we wanted to get married at. It is truly the perfect venue because it is one stop shop. My wife and I checked in on Friday afternoon to one of the ten picturesque suites. Each suite was meticulously clean and beautifully decorated which paid homage to the history of the building. We had our delicious rehearsal dinner which all of the guests raved about. We then enjoyed our dream wedding in the outdoor courtyard, with a menu my wife and I hand picked with the Inn manager’s help. Shout out to Heather who is simply the best! To finish the evening we were able to host our after party in the speakeasy. The next morning we had a delicious brunch to end the dream weekend. Everyone has not stoped talking about our wedding, including us. The rooms, the tavern, the courtyard, the speakeasy, are all the space you need! We love the Bell Inn and can’t wait to return for date nights, anniversaries, and to one day bring our children. The Bell Inn isn’t a place to us they became a family.

We had a room block here for our wedding in Beverly, and hosted a brunch the day after (you have to have a catered event at the hotel in order to have a room block). Overall, our experience was pretty good. The hotel has been recently renovated and the rooms were beautiful. The King Suite was great to get ready in - I had 11 people getting hair and makeup done, with 4 artists, and there was enough space. Having the Regatta Pub on site was perfect for a welcome event and post-wedding spot and could easily accommodate a large influx of people. The brunch was ready to go with plenty of tasty food and drink. They also were able to hand out welcome bags when guests checked in. Kristen, who organized the room block, was extremely communicative and responsive to our emails, and helped us add rooms to our block a couple times. We are rating 4/5 stars for a couple reasons. First is that housekeeping never came to the suite to clean after we had left for the wedding, so we returned at the end of the night to all of the room-service coffee/breakfast items that had arrived at 8:30 that morning. When we called the front desk, no one answered. Secondly, while the brunch was great, they do charge a large room fee and administrative fee.

We had the absolute joy of celebrating our wedding at The View at Pepperrell Cove, and it truly exceeded every one of our expectations. From the moment we stepped into the venue, we were swept away by the breathtaking ocean view. The space itself is beautifully intimate and welcoming, perfect for the close-knit celebration we dreamed of. One of the true highlights of our experience was the staff. Every single person was thoughtful, kind, and attentive—not just to our guests, but to us as a couple. They were always a step ahead, checking in, keeping the day flowing, and ensuring we were relaxed and cared for throughout. It genuinely felt like they were celebrating with us. We can’t say enough about Dionna, the event coordinator. She made the entire planning process so smooth and enjoyable. Communicating with her was effortless—she was always prompt, professional, and incredibly open to our ideas. We had a vision for the day that felt a bit outside the box, and she embraced it wholeheartedly, helping us bring it to life in a way that felt personal and magical. And the food—wow. We are still talking about it. One of the most special parts of this venue is the chance to work directly with their incredible chef, Eides, to craft a custom menu. We were able to incorporate some of our favorite flavors and dishes into a beautiful, cohesive meal that reflected who we are as a couple. Eides took everything we loved and elevated it into a culinary experience that was both unique and deeply meaningful. Sharing that with our closest family and friends was unforgettable. The location was also ideal—just minutes from Portsmouth, NH, which made it easy for out-of-town guests and gave us access to even more fun weekend activities. We truly can’t recommend The View at Pepperrell Cove enough. It’s a hidden gem that offers beauty, warmth, flexibility, and heart. We feel so lucky to have found it, and even luckier to have celebrated the best day of our lives there.

My husband and I got married at the Hilton in Woburn on 6/8/24. Anyone that knows me, knows I stress about everything like there is no tomorrow. The Hilton put all my worries at ease. I did have a few different wedding coordinators throughout the process but they all were very helpful and communicated well with one another when switching to a different coordinator. Ruth and Kari- the best of the best! Responded quickly if I had any questions or concerns. We had our ceremony and reception at the Hilton. Kari and Alli (director of banquets)- words cannot even express how grateful I felt having both of them help with the ceremony entrances as we had an odd amount of people in the wedding party. Kari and Alli were both there the day of our wedding and made sure everything was set up the way I envisioned it. Ruth, Kari, and Alli, thank you all so much for making my wedding day the best, most memorable day, of my life!

Manchester country club was the perfect venue for us. I can't think of a single con for the venue. Everything was amazing. There are so many pretty areas and it's separated from the rest of the country club and there is only one wedding per day so it feels very private. We got married on the balcony which was gorgeous. All the food was really, really good. The drinks were really good. My signature drink was a mojito and it was a perfect mojito. Both Kim and Fallon were pros and very easy to work with and incredibly helpful. In my opinion the biggest separator between this venue and other venues we looked at was the bridal suite. We got access to the bridal suite at 9am and the bridal suite is a room that was made to be a bridal suite. It's got a sitting area, a makeup and hair counter and chairs, an area with 3 walls of mirrors, and a private bathroom. The mirror area made really nice getting ready photos. My bridesmaids and I spent hours getting ready and it was so nice just to show up in the morning, have the hair and makeup team come to the venue and just be at the venue for the rest of the day and not have to worry about changing locations. We also were free to take photos before the ceremony so a couple hours before the ceremony we took our first look, wedding party, and close family members photos. We spent the first 20 minutes of the cocktail hour getting the remaining photos and then enjoyed our own cocktail hour. We looked at other venues where you were not allowed at the venue until as little as 90 minutes before your ceremony and that was not for us. My goal for the wedding was to minimize stress and be able to enjoy everything about the day and Manchester Country Club was great for that. Everything was easy. There were zero surprises with the bill and zero hidden fees. Considering how good the food, bar, and overall experience was, I was very happy with the prices. Our guests loved the venue too. Just an amazing venue. This was the second to last venue we toured, out of a list of six we wanted to see in person, and by the end of the tour I knew this was our venue.
