“The 1830 Wedding Barn is an absolute MUST for a wedding venue. I have nothing but incredible things to say. The location is beautiful and private, the barn has enough room to fit everything we needed (we had around 100 guests), there are beautiful spots to take photos, and they offer florals as part of a package, which saved so much time (and they were beautiful). Not to mention, the owners are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. Not only did they provide a beautiful place, but their willingness to help out allowed my husband and I to enjoy the day. They decorated for us, organized stuff with the vendors, helped with cleaning up, etc. I would choose this venue over and over again, and suggest it to anyone looking to get married!”

“Heidi was the most helpful during the planning process. She answered any and all questions I had about the space and logistics. She was professional, prompt, and knowledgeable. Matt was amazing on the day of the wedding. He made sure the ceremony and reception went smoothly. He even drove my husband, myself, and our photographer back down the mountain after the ceremony in his own car! He continually checked in with me and made the day much easier. Now for the space itself - we were immediately blown away by the King Pine ceremony location at the top of a mountain overlooking the beautiful lake. We got to take the ski lift up to the ceremony with our guests and I know those will be unforgettable pictures! Our reception was tented at king pine field and everyone raved about the whole thing from start to finish. We spent our time canoeing and kayaking with our dog and spending time with our friends and family. I can’t recommend having your wedding at Purity Spring enough!”

“Choosing Camp Cody as our wedding venue was a huge decision and an excellent choice. Anna was so helpful throughout the process, and Dora was amazing weekend of–I never saw her standing still. The venue is so gorgeous, and being able to host our friends and family for a whole weekend made everything go by more slowly, with plenty of opportunities to connect with everyone. The Capture the Flag game we held morning of was a big highlight. The food was INCREDIBLE, and our guests haven’t stopped commenting on it. Everyone says you don’t eat at your wedding, and you better believe that was not true for us. As a person with a lot of food allergies, I’ve never felt more cared for and accommodated, and it was amazing to have that for our guests as well. In one notable moment, my cousin with celiac jumped with joy at the prospect of having gluten free pancakes and french toast for breakfast. The accommodations were comfortable, even in 30-40 degree temps overnight, the heat really works! Staying on site and not having to run around everywhere looking for everything and everyone made a big difference as someone without a planner. Also, arranging folks in cabins was not as stressful as we expected it to be. With our smaller wedding, we had plenty of space to spread people out. Thank you again to White Mountain Weddings for an amazing weekend!”

Having the entire weekend to celebrate made everything feel so relaxed and special, and it turned our wedding into a full experience rather than just a single day. Mackenzie, Nicole, and Dan were absolutely incredible from start to finish. Their attention to detail and organization made the planning process seamless. The day-of coordination allowed us to truly enjoy every moment without a single worry. The entire Autumn Lane Estate team was amazing. The venue itself is perfect. Having both the tent and the barn was great. Two separate spaces to eat and dance made transitioning to the dance floor easy and once the music started, no one wanted to sit down again! The cottages and cabins were another huge highlight. Having our family and friends stay on-site made it feel like a vacation getaway. Mackenzie and Dan have poured their hearts into this venue, and you can feel it in every detail. They genuinely want your weekend to be the best weekend ever. We can’t recommend Autumn Lane Estate enough. They are the best!”

The barn itself is exactly the rustic vibe we were going for - it’s spacious, airy (the huge ceiling fan was so nice for the summer) and full of twinkle lights! We paid extra to have our ceremony in the pasture - DO IT!! The Highland cows (yes…cows!!!) were witnesses to our wedding and it was such a fun touch for the guests to hang with them during cocktail hour! Kelsee - the venue manager - is absolutely amazing. She was able to answer every random question I threw her way, and helped to setup the space exactly how we wanted it! She’s also been renovating, and for our wedding we had both a bridal suite and grooms suite on site, which was perfect! I’d 100% plan another event there. I highly recommend this venue - for its charm, the cows (duh), and especially the people that work there!!”

First of all, the views from the spot are absolutely amazing - right on the lake, with a sunset view of the lake and mountains in the background. We loved having our ceremony and taking photos along the waterfront (and there are a bunch of different spots for photos). The use of the boathouse is great - it's a great building for people to hang out, store stuff, use bathrooms, etc. Everyone we worked with at Brewster was super organized, friendly, and communicative.

“We live out of state and booked Bear Mountain site unseen (we did a FaceTime tour). It was the best decision. When we showed up we were star struck by its beauty of the inn and staff. The wedding was better than anything I could imagine. The staff thought of everything from flowers for the rehearsal to laminating our table numbers. Also the food was 12/10 amazing!!!!!! The staff even went out of their way to make sure we had one of dessert in our room waiting for us after the wedding. I loved how our wedding party and family were all able to stay at the inn and spend the weekend together not just the day. Not to mention the indoor and outdoor spaces for the wedding. The owner was so laid back and involved every step of the way in the planning process. They made great suggestions for other needs like make up and flowered and dj and photos. They even suggested local activities like hikes and breweries.”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about The Everlee but we will try! From the moment we first toured this stunning new venue, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. The barn and pavilion are absolutely breathtaking, with every detail thoughtfully designed, and the outdoor ceremony space gave us the most magical backdrop for our day. One of the things that mattered most to us was having a truly private setting, and The Everlee delivered that perfectly. After touring several venues that felt like we would be on display, it was such a gift to find a place that felt peaceful, secluded, and completely ours for the day - it felt like home as cliché as it sounds. What truly made our experience unforgettable, though, was Andee. She went above and beyond for us every step of the way. Her planning and organizational skills are unmatched—she thought of every little detail before we even knew to ask. Even our families, bridal party, and guests had nothing but amazing things to say about Andee. Beyond her professionalism, Andee is genuinely kind, supportive, and calming, which made the entire planning process so smooth and enjoyable. On our wedding day, we were able to be fully present because we knew we were in the best hands. We wholeheartedly recommend The Everlee to anyone looking for a venue that combines beauty, privacy, functionality, and heart. And if you have the chance to work with Andee, consider yourself incredibly lucky—she is truly a dream coordinator and beautiful person inside and out!”

They were extremely helpful in walking us through all the details and ensuring everything was taken care of. The grounds and farmhouse/barn provided a beautiful, clean slate for us to transform into our dream wedding. The rehearsal dinner skating on their private rink could not have been more perfect - everything was communicated ahead of time and Mike was onsite to assist us if needed. I truly do not have enough good things to say about Flanagan Farm.

“My wife and I were worried about finding a space and a team to really help us bring our vision to light. We are a non-traditional couple with a very non-traditional theme, and the second we walked through the doors of Grace Ventures and met Stacey, we knew we found our venue. After sifting through a daunting list of potential venues, Grace and the team working there easily stood out. Over the next year, we kept in contact with Stacey and team to ensure our timeline was good, neither of us ever really having thought about or planned for a wedding had us feeling a bit over our heads at first. Stacey and team made the entire planning and executing process so incredibly easy that we were sometimes worried we were missing a step, only to be encouraged and reminded that we were on-schedule and ready to go. Stacey even steered us in the direction of incredible support staff, like Kyle at Moe's Subs and DJ Dennis after we hit a few snags with music and food on our end. We finally reached our day, and it couldn't have been more perfect. From the support setting up, to final adjustments and clarifications, to the bar and dinner service, it all went off without a hitch, and we couldn't possibly be more grateful. No matter which wedding package you decide on, just know that Stacey and team will take care of you and the details that will allow you to focus on your special day.”

“We are SO grateful that Claudine was a part of our big day. We worked with Claudine as the day of coordinator for our June wedding, but she helped us with much more than that. We knew Claudine and her assistants meant business as soon as they walked in with name tags and big smiles. There was truly a lot to keep track of the entire day— from directing lawn games in the afternoon and ferry departures in the evening, to the unexpected added duty of cake cutting and serving, Claudine was on top of it in every aspect. She was highly organized, very professional, and went above and beyond the entire time. Everything ran so smoothly thanks to her and it truly couldn't have been a better day!”

What stood out most to us wasn’t just how beautiful the property is, but how effortlessly everything came together. The team handled logistics (vendor coordination, setup, breakdown) so the entire day felt calm and easy instead of rushed or stressful. Even the next morning was smooth, with everything already organized and ready to go. Working with Nicole was a game-changer. She brought such a steady, thoughtful presence to the planning process and always seemed one step ahead. Whether it was sharing ideas, helping us think through decisions, or just being a reassuring voice, she made everything feel manageable and fun. She was also there for the little moments that meant so much, like helping my mom bustle my dress, which really speaks to how above and beyond she goes. Food was a huge priority for us, and Barn & Table absolutely delivered.
