“We didn’t use tuckerman hall for our ceremony but our cocktail hour and reception were held here. I can imagine all of the following review would apply if we had also chosen to have our ceremony there! We couldn’t have had a more seamless, perfect wedding day with Paul, Adrian and their team at Tuckerman hall. Stepping into the venue during our tour, the hall speaks for itself - absolutely stunning throughout the whole building. Getting access to the whole building all day of the wedding certainly was a selling point - the bride groom, grooms room, first look spot, photo spots, stair case… it all made for gorgeous pictures. Getting to be there all day made our morning of completely relaxed (we had an evening ceremony) and stress free. Never ran into my husband or groomsmen, Paul made sure to bring gifts or anything else between rooms so there was never cross-over until the first look We cannot say enough good things about Paul and Adrian - no planner or day of coordinator needed! The day before, we were able to bring nearly everything we’d need for the wedding day to the venue ahead of time and we even got to practice our first dance in the hall. Adrian was an exceptional help with this and our first dance ended up lovely! Throughout the reception, Paul and Adrian checked to make sure there wasn’t anything we or our guests needed or wanted, and all of their staff was above and beyond pleasant and professional, chatting with everyone like old friends rather than employees at your event. Leah at the bar was absolutely fantastic, so was her son who walked my parents to their car after and helped us load up our florals! Paul helped my bridal party get the suite cleaned out and the majority of things packed into my maid of honors car at the end of the night, but also set a time with us the next morning to get the rest of our decor and things. By the time my parents and my husband & I arrived, they had carts all loaded up with all of our things so all that was needed to do was transfer to the car. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day - Paul & Adrian saw our vision and executed the plan perfectly every step of the way, with planned planning meetings ahead of time, to excellent follow through the entire way though. Paul provided a list of vendors we could look through - DJ was spectacular, caricature artist for favors with the DJ was a major hit, food was so unbelievably delicious - top tier vendors all around. Our guests couldn’t say enough amazing things about tuckerman hall, their team, or the food (Tuckerman’s specific catering company they work with was top notch and we’re still drooling over the food two weeks later) the caterer & preferred vendors work so wonderfully together and there is simply nothing negative to say! They seem to be enjoying themselves and being at the event rather than dreading their shift - and it was noticed and appreciated by both my husband and myself, as well as our guests! Everyone had the best time, bride & groom included and cannot stop talking about it If you want your wedding to go off without a hitch and be absolutely stunning every step of the way, tuckerman hall is absolutely the way to go!
