Everything with Three Village Inn from start to finish was nothing but amazing. We worked with Tom and we can’t thank him enough. We did the package the venue offered and all the vendors were so great to work with as well. Communication was never an issue and he was just so great. To be honest, the entire staff was a pleasure to work with. Our maître d’ was Jonathan and he was attentive and a pleasure to work with as well. The food at both cocktail hour and dinner was out of this world. Absolutely delicious. Our guests still talk about it. The venue itself is just beautiful and the grounds are great for pictures as well as the beach across the street. We had our ceremony indoors and they did such a great job. Our wedding was more than what we could’ve dreamed of.

We got married at Stonebridge this past weekend, and it truly exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we started planning to the very last song of the night, everything was absolutely incredible. The food was phenomenal, the cocktail hour was amazing, and our ceremony was absolutely beautiful. Every detail came together perfectly, and our guests are still talking about how much they loved everything. A huge thank you to Diana, who was incredible throughout the entire planning process. She was so responsive and always one step ahead, making what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless! Terrence is hands down the best maître d’ in the business. He made sure we always had a drink in our hands, reminded us to eat, kept us hydrated, and ensured we actually got to enjoy our wedding. He somehow managed to be everywhere at once, and to top it all off, he ended the night on the dance floor serving cannolis to our guests! His energy and genuine care made such a difference. Tracey was the absolute best bridal attendant we could have asked for. She was there for anything and everything we needed and constantly checked in on both the bridal party and the groomsmen since everyone was getting ready in the suites. Everyone loved her, and she made the entire day feel so relaxed and stress-free. The updated bridal and groom suites are absolutely stunning. My sister-in-law even had her 2-month-old baby with her, and there was more than enough room to create a quiet little corner for them without feeling crowded. It worked out perfectly, and everyone had plenty of space to get ready comfortably. Stonebridge gave us the wedding of our dreams. Every member of the staff went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day.

We truly couldn't be happier with our wedding at the Roger Shermann Inn. The staff, in particular our point of contact, George, really went above and beyond.

Our guests enjoyed the food, which was both delicious and accommodating for multiple dietary restrictions and preferences.

If you want a PARTY, book this venue. They have multiple rooms at this venue you can book depending on your headcount. We booked the Majestic Room on the top floor for 75 people. They also have the Swan Room that can fit over 150 people or something like that. The whole second floor was dedicated to our event. Here are some of the features it had that just makes sense functionally: we had a bridal suite that fit our whole bridal party and parents, an elevator since it was on the second floor, a grand staircase, our own bathrooms and bar separate from the downstairs area, a built-in dance floor, and a welcome landing. We had to bring minimal decorations, like centerpieces and such. They provide table settings, everything in the bar, name cards, and table numbers. We suggest finding a vendor for uplighting. Our DJ provided it for us and made the room look amazing. The food is fancy and delicious. In the days that followed our reception, we received compliments about the entrees and passed hors d’oeuvres. They are plated like an inspired high-end restaurant. We had an open bar and everyone was very pleased with the service. TLDR: these people know what they’re doing. The space is BUILT for weddings, not retrofitted, and it shows. The service is WHITE GLOVE and the food will impress your guests. Book this venue!

We couldn't be happier with our choice to get married at Keeler. From the start, Mary Ann made planning easy by answering all our questions and being genuinely kind to work with. The space felt romantic without being stuffy, and the gardens were absolutely perfect on our wedding day. We had about 70 guests and the venue was the ideal size for everyone to feel comfortable while enjoying the beautiful history of the grounds. Yes, you need to bring in all vendors, but the reasonable venue fee meant we pulled off our dream wedding for under 30K—something we never thought was possible in this area. The staff was helpful throughout the day, and we ended up with a celebration we're truly proud of. Completely recommend!!
