We had the pleasure of having my husband’s group Christmas party at Andover Country Club in Andover, MA. We could not have been happier and more impressed by the professionalism of our event coordinator Jordyn. From our very first conversation until the evening of the party, she was unbelievably diligent, respectful of our needs and requests, very courteous, accommodating, and a joy to work with. We had all the details in the contract, but it wasn’t until we saw it , that we realized they went above and beyond to make this event very festive and unforgettable for everyone.

City Winery is as an awesome venue for a wedding. We were able to do a walk through the day before and bring items for set up the day before, which made our day of much easier. The City Winery team was amazing at doing all the set up. They are pros! From reception tables to ceremony chairs. Their sound system is amazing for a DJ and contributed to the reason that our dance floor was packed for three hours straight. Having a 180 person wedding was great for this venue, as we were able to use the dining area, bar area for cocktail hour, and concert venue for the reception. From overseeing our ceremony music to allowing us to truly transforms the space, this venue is a great fit for someone with creative ideas! Additionally, the location was great for our guests and photos (as we got to take some on the roof and get an amazing view of Boston).

We had an amazing wedding at AFH - all of our guests raved that it was an amazing venue. The art makes it unique and more interesting. It has two floors and you can do a more dramatic entrance using the staircase. They contact at AFH, Rich, was very kind and easy to work with. They do have an exclusive caterer that you have to use and they are pricey. But the food is amazing and worth it.

I highly recommend Four Points Wakefield for wedding room blocks and events! Almost all of my wedding guests (plus me and my husband) stayed here for my wedding weekend, and I hosted my after party and farewell brunch here. I coordinated the room block and events through Katie, who was an absolute delight to work with - she was very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs were met. She even put together a slideshow of me and my husband to welcome guests to the hotel, which was a huge hit! The staff at Four Points Wakefield also were extremely professional, friendly, and on top of the events - they helped put out the food for the after party, which we hosted in the hotel bar, and set up a lovely brunch for our guests after the wedding. Both events went so smoothly due to the staff! Lastly, the suite we stayed in was a perfect place for bridesmaids to get ready in. Overall, I was so impressed with Four Points Wakefield’s service!!

The Banks was the perfect choice for our small wedding. From the very first conversation, the team was kind, responsive, and detail-oriented. They genuinely cared about making our day special - And the food was incredible! (This is the main reason we chose a restaurant as our venue!) We chose the Fireplace Room and it was cozy and perfect for our group. We used the same space for both the ceremony and dinner, and it was great because it made everything so easy for us and our guests. Food wise, they had a great variety and even accommodated several dietary preferences without missing a beat. If you’re looking for a venue that’s intimate, stress-free, and serves amazing food, I can’t recommend The Banks enough. They truly helped make our wedding unforgettable.

We had our ceremony and reception at the Foundation Room and it was everything we dreamed it would be! The House of Blues staff was so so accommodating. Meaghan was an absolute dream to work with for the year leading up to it and she did not let us down at all. She was with us every step of the way, from the time that we toured the venue to very end of the night. She went above and beyond to take care of every detail all day long. I cannot stress enough how incredible of an experience we had working with her. She paid attention to every detail, listened to us and made every little change we asked for. She also coordinated with all of our vendors beforehand and even set up our macaron tower. She truly brought our vision to life and helped us throw the best New Year’s Eve party. The House of Blues staff was on top of table turnovers, quick clean ups, made sure we had everything we needed and were so helpful with set up and clean up. They made it a seamless, worry free night for us. The food was delicious and our specialty cocktails were even better! Meaghan worked with us to craft tasty specialty cocktails that were a hit with our guests. She also made sure everything came out right on schedule.
