Our August 2026 wedding at Merrill's on the Waterfront was incredible! From our first inquiry and visit, to probably hundreds of emails, questions, and updates in between, Victoria was the best coordinator anyone could ask for. Her responsiveness, communication, knowledge, and enthusiasm made every single question go answered and every detail was executed exactly as we had hoped. I don't think you could find a venue with a more response and helpful coordinator than Victoria! We went with the full buyout option and are so happy with how the flow and structure of the day went, with plenty of space for our guests to mingle, dance, and have a great time. With nearly all guests coming in from out of town, the location with the hotel right across the street and so many things to do downtown in walking distance (plus waterfront views of course) made Merrill's the perfect choices for us. Hands down the best wedding venue in New Bedford!

Picking the wedding venue is the first big step in planning the big day, after seeing the venue at Bittersweet Farm and meeting with our to be coordinator, it was a quick and easy decision to book them as a venue. We had a Fall wedding and we were fortunate to have great weather to hold the ceremony outside which is beautiful, however this venue having a 'Plan B' for the ceremony to be held inside in case of bad weather was a key selling point. Our wedding coordinator Alexis was amazing, communication was great and the day of she was so organized on directing us for the ceremony and reception. The food is also a huge highlight, all our guests kept praising how good the food was. Needless to say this was the best venue we could have picked, also we strongly feel you get your money's worth and Bittersweet gives you a very well valued package that isn't no where near where other overly priced venues are charging.
