“We were so pleased with our amazing experience at Fern Hill Barn!! Every member of the team was consistently working throughout the day to make things run smoothly and help take any pressure or stress off us as the bride and groom. We experienced a very aggressive pop up thunderstorm right as our outdoor ceremony was supposed to take place, and I have never seen a team take action like they did. Carly kept me posted on the forecast and when we were forced to move inside, the team was at attention, putting up the sides of the tent, moving florals, and keeping everything pristine for the tent ceremony. Joanne, our banquet captain, helped me with any and everything that day - from adjusting my veil and dress, to calming my nerves about the storm, and even making sure we had our first congratulatory drinks once we were married. I cannot thank everyone enough, and we will surely be recommending our venue for years to come. All our guests were so pleased and so complimentary of the food, the cake, the friendliness of all staff, and the overall atmosphere. THANK YOU FERN HILL BARN TEAM!!”

First and foremost, they were extremely accommodating with my allergy and the allergy of our guests, my mom’s wheelchair, and allowing us to have a dog at the venue as our ring bearer. Second, the venue was beautiful. The food delicious. And service incredible. The price was exactly what we were looking for: AFFORDABLE. But the best part was Haley.

Kristen was extremely professional, empathetic, and timely in all aspects of the planning processing including addressing any issues that came up. Kristen's experience and warm personality made us feel comfortable amidst the whirlwind of wedding day. We couldn't have asked for a better or more attentive planner, we felt like her only couple.

“We couldn't be happier with our August 2026 wedding at Hartman's! From beginning to end, we felt truly cared for and supported by the family. If you are looking for a venue that is homey and warm, this is it! Carissa worked hard to build us a menu that infused my husband's Puerto Rican heritage and helped us make thoughtful decisions throughout the process; no ask was every too big! We really appreciate that Hartman's handled the food, flowers, day of coordinating, etc., so we had very few vendors to find on our own (really just DJ and photographer-- both excellent suggestions from the venue). Their pricing was very reasonable and transparent. Truly an absolute gem tucked away in central MA. Thank you so much, Carissa and family for the unforgettable weekend!”

In 2011 we purchased an old dairy farm in a quiet corner of Harrisville, New Hampshire.

Mayfair Farm offers a complete special events package that is truly unique. With our inspiring views, welcoming barn, and farm-to-table menu, your family and friends will share a one-of-a-kind experience.

“To find a wedding venue that is as picture perfect, serene, elegant, and magnifies the beauty of New Hampshire all in one place is rare, but this is exactly what Mayfair Farm has achieved. My husband and I were lucky enough to have been married at Mayfair Farm in August 2024. From the very beginning, Mayfair Farm spoke volumes to us as not only does the entire venue represent our home state of NH, but their focus on farm-to-table food sold us in a heartbeat. As two foodies, my husband and I could not get over how unique of an experience it was to help curate our wedding menu based off of Sarah and Craig’s farm and to morph our food to fit our own food-loving wants. Sarah and Craig are a wonderful duo and to have been able to work with Sarah and her incredible team was a treat. They provided effortless class and taste throughout our rehearsal dinner and entire wedding day. Sarah and her team are easy to communicate with and provided excellent insight to any questions that arose throughout the wedding planning process. My husband and I cannot speak highly enough of Mayfair Farm!”

“Our guests can’t stop talking about our wedding…the breathtaking views, the incredible food from the smoker, and the coffee bar everyone loved…and it’s all thanks to Harrington. From the moment you arrive, the beauty of the venue speaks for itself, but what truly sets it apart is how effortlessly they make everything come together. We wanted a place that could truly do it all so we wouldn’t have to worry about a thing, and Harrington delivered in every way. The entire team worked tirelessly to make us feel special and ensure we had the best day possible. They went above and beyond for us and our 200 guests…making sure we always had food and drinks, checking in at all the right moments, and creating thoughtful touches that our guests are still raving about. And of course, a massive shoutout to our incredible coordinator, Lindsey. As the first in my family to get married, we had no idea what we were doing. Lindsey guided us every step of the way…answering every question, offering honest advice, and becoming a close friend and trusted guide throughout the process. I honestly can’t imagine what planning our wedding…or our wedding day itself…would have been like without her. We are endlessly grateful to the entire Harrington team for making our wedding day stress-free, beautiful, and unforgettable. If you want a wedding that wows your guests and gives you complete peace of mind, Harrington is the place.”

“My wife & I had the privilege to get married surrounded by our friends & family at the beautiful Montague Retreat Center in June of 2024. There’s a seemingly endless list of what drew us to MRC, but some key features to highlight: - Incredibly beautiful indoor & outdoor spaces - Comfortable, spacious, and accessible on-site lodging options - Flexible weekend buyout, enabling us to bring all of our ideas to life without much restriction or hurdles - Wheelhouse Catering: some of the best wedding food we’ve ever tasted in our lives - All of Montague staff, especially Jason Jason deserves his own dedicated review, but from the planning stages all the way through until the end of our weekend, Jason made himself available and ready to help. Jason referred several our vendors that made our day go off without a hitch, all of whom brought creative and personal touches that made our day so special. He consistently went above and beyond day of as well, from catching decorations that needed to be put out, to being hands-on assisting guests that needed extra help, and facilitating vendors to ensure everything was in its right place. His knowledge and general presence brought a calming energy that really helped us feel at home at MRC. For our wedding weekend (170 guests), we really took advantage of all we could at MRC. We observed first hand and heard from guests after our wedding that they felt they had plenty of space to enjoy themselves comfortably through the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. With the full weekend rented, we used every square inch that the venue offered: - Friday: Portable Brick Oven Pizza in front of the Great Hall - Saturday AM: family provided breakfast buffet near the dining tent - Ceremony: Outdoor up on the ceremony ring - Cocktail Hour: Custom Poetry and plenty of activities all around the barn - Reception: Live band with stage lighting & sound; DJ later in the evening - Saturday Night: Late night fire pit & snacks for the wedding party - Sunday AM: Bagel sandwiches from Tandem Bagel in the lower level of the barn We can’t stress enough how perfect our weekend was at MRC. Montague Retreat Center will always hold a special place in our hearts, as it left a lasting impact on not only us, but our friends and family as well. At the end of our wedding weekend, many of our family members suggested that we rent out the space for a night every few years for a recurring big family bash. We may have to do just that!”

“When we first moved to Brattleboro back in 2023, the Retreat Farm was one of the first places we visited. Not only is the mission of nonprofit phenomenal, the organization hosts events that bring community together and folks closer to nature. When deciding on our wedding venue a year later, the Retreat Farm was one of our top choices. At the time, the North Barn was being renovated and had not yet been finished, but even then we saw the vision. I also think it is important to mention, as a queer couple, we received nothing but respect throughout the entire process. From the beginning, everyone we worked with from signing the contracts to planning the actual wedding, we received enthusiasm for our less than traditional wedding (Gothic Victorian/Halloween themed). Retreat Farm from the beginning was exceptional! I cannot reiterate enough how kind everyone was to work with. Working with Samantha as the venue coordinator was a breeze. She was accommodating, fun, and well organized. She answered every question, no matter how little. Planning a wedding is no easy task, but every step of the way, Samantha and the Retreat Farm staff were there. Franklin and the staff day of were also all so accommodating and there to help address any last minute hiccup! Everyone was also so fun and inviting to all of our guests dressed up in their costumes. We had an outdoor ceremony on Outlook Meadow and I know the work that would've gone into hauling the arbor, chairs, and sound system up that hill, but they did what they could to make our day PERFECT! We had our reception in the North Barn and even with spending time in the space before, I could not have imagined how perfect it was with all of our decor! The wood beams, tables, and lights balanced perfectly with our elegant Victorian and silly Halloween decor! No matter what style wedding you're looking for, the Retreat Farm will help you make it happen in the most beautiful spaces! If I could give more than five stars, I would!”

“We had our wedding at Scott Farm Orchard and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Suzanne was responsive to emails and made planning so easy that we actually got to enjoy the process instead of stressing about it. The property itself is stunning with so many different backdrops and settings for photos and the ceremony, which gave us tons of options to make the day feel uniquely ours. On the day of, the team was seamless—Noa kept the bar running smoothly, Betsy made sure all our guests felt welcomed and knew where to go, and everyone worked together like they'd done this a hundred times before. We were also thrilled to have access to the Landmark Trust historic buildings nearby for our family to stay in; those beautiful old buildings were the perfect touch and so convenient to the venue. I am a professional photographer and have seen/worked with a lot of venues. Scott Farm exceeded my and my guests expectations. I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding”

“The Blue Bear Inn was the perfect wedding venue for us! We knew we wanted a venue that allowed dogs, was close to an airport (1 hr) for family traveling, had excellent food, offered beautiful scenery, could house our out-of-town guests, was mostly a one stop shop (with lodging, wedding venue, ceremony site options, day-of-coordination, catering, & cake/desserts), and provided historical romance vibes without being a barn — and the Blue Bear checked every box and then some! Carrie, Bob, and the team gave us such a special wedding weekend in May - they didn't plan the most perfect rainbow, but I know they would’ve if they could!”

“Where do I begin? The Chocksett was our second or third venue me and my wife toured, and we were impressed from the moment we pulled into the parking lot. We met with Tianna, who gave us a tour; from each get ready room, to the bridal suite, the ballroom, the outdoor ceremony space, and the restaurant downstairs. We fell in love with everything about it. When we sat down with Tianna after the tour, we were blown away by everything that was included and were pleasantly surprised by the cost (The previous venues we toured were significantly out of our budget). Tianna takes the time and truly cares and asks every little detail, details that we didn't even think of. From the moment we signed our contract with the Chocksett, Tianna made every single step 100% stress free for us - and if you're planning a wedding, you know how stressful the planning is! She handled everything. Every meeting with her was so easy, so stress free, fun, and she is such a genuine person. Fast forward to wedding day and I don't think we ever saw her stop moving. She wanted to make sure everything went perfect and smooth for us and that we didn't have to worry about a single thing. It ended up raining during our ceremony, and without any hesitation, let us know she was already working on moving everything to the indoor ceremony space and not to worry. She set up all of our decorations we provided, set up every place setting exactly how we wanted, the welcome sign and seating chart, the list goes on. I now see that when every bride said that the day flies by, that's an understatement. The entire day flew by from when we got there to get ready, to the after party. The day was everything we dreamed it would have been and more. Thank you to everybody at the Chocksett, especially Tianna. If you're looking for a venue, I promise, you don't need to look any further. Book at the Chocksett and work with Tianna. I promise you'll be just as impressed as we were. I wish we could go back and do it all over again. We cannot possibly thank you enough.”

“If you’re looking for classic New England inn charm that feels like a cross between a Nancy Meyers movie and Gilmore Girls, look no further. When we first started wedding planning, the sheer volume of decisions—from transportation to catering—felt completely overwhelming. The Inn on Boltwood made our lives so much easier; they truly are the perfect venue. We loved that the Inn is essentially an all-inclusive venue. Between the on-site catering, rehearsal space, coordination support, and the ability to stay at the property, it eliminated the stress of managing a dozen different vendors and travel logistics. From our very first viewing, we knew it was the place for us. Our wedding coordinator, Catherine, could not have been a better human to work with. She never faltered; she is kind, creative, and a true expert at running a wedding. The food was UNREAL. Our guests are still raving about it, and the variety was fantastic. As a vegetarian bride, it was such a relief to have high-quality, delicious meal options rather than feeling like an afterthought pulled from the freezer. We hosted our rehearsal dinner on the rooftop terrace, which provided a beautiful, elevated backdrop for our family to kick off the weekend. We also loved that the Inn offers great hybrid solutions for weather. While we were fortunate enough to have a perfect day for an outdoor ceremony and tented reception, it gave us such peace of mind knowing there were seamless indoor options available if it had rained or become too hot. The Inn also gives full access for photos, and there are so many stunning locations for picture-perfect moments throughout the property! The space feels so intimate that it felt like we were hosting the wedding at our own home. Beyond the venue itself, the location in Amherst gave our guests wonderful opportunities to explore—the Saturday morning farmers market was a massive hit! With other hotel options just five minutes away and plenty of parking, it was incredibly convenient for everyone.”

“We would 1000% recommend Windsor Mountain. The camp is beautiful, but we have to start with the staff. Gabby, our point person, was the kindest and most thoughtful human. We loved working with her. When we first toured the camp, we were sold not only by the setting, but by the fact that we would get to plan our weekend with her. In the months leading up to the wedding, we had a few meetings with Gabby to go over details and talk through our vision. She shared a full Google Drive for us with FAQs, room spreadsheets, food menus and more. We also attended a food tasting in the summer and got to tour the camp again. On the Friday morning before the wedding, we met with her and handed off everything. She and the entire camp staff took it from there so we did not have to think about a single thing all weekend. We had a perfect weekend. The staff were incredible, the food was delicious and our guests had so much fun. The location itself is stunning. The lake, the trees, the ceremony site, the cabins and buildings, open fields etc. made the entire camp feel peaceful, scenic and special. The lakefront treehouse for the couple to stay in is also beautiful. They have a solid rain plan, they worked with us to stay within our food budget and the activities are endless. There are a variety of cabins for guests and a house for those who may need extra amenities, such as elderly guests or parents with infants. Guests loved having access to the lake, zip line, ropes course, walking trails, etc. Windsor Mountain is amazing and we are so grateful we chose it.”

Set in a beautifully renovated and restored 100-year old barn overlooking rolling hills of conservation land, the Barn at Gibbet Hill is one of New England’s most unique venues for weddings and special events. The Barn offers rustic elegance with unparalleled views. The first wedding at The Barn at Gibbet Hill took place in 2002 when Jed and Asia’s fantastic outdoor wedding plans got rained out. Back then the Barn was completely unrenovated – hay bales were moved to the edge of the room and the tractor had to be parked outside so a makeshift wedding aisle could be made. After witnessing the undeniable magic of that day, the idea to transform the Barn into a permanent wedding venue began to take hold. Two years later, after a massive renovation of the Barn was completed, The Barn officially opened for business. And two years after that, CBS-4 crowned the Barn the best wedding venue in the Boston Area!

“We found the Barn when searching for an all-inclusive yet customizable venue (so our wedding would feel like us), with good food and staff that would make the day feel seamless. LGBTQ friendly was a must. Ultimately, we’re so grateful we picked Gibbet Hill! Furthermore, having a daytime celebration allowed us to have the wedding we wanted within our budget. Overall, the Barn’s team was genuinely invested in making our vision come to life, and they more than delivered on our big day. From our very first intake and tour, we knew we were in good hands. Our planner, Bree, was with us from the beginning, answering every question with warmth and confidence that immediately put us at ease. Throughout the planning process she was professional, responsive, and just fun to work with. We also picked many of the Barn’s preferred vendors, who all spoke highly of one another so it was clear they had great experience and flow as a cross-vendor team. On the day itself, the entire Barn staff operated with a calming efficiency that made everything feel effortless. They had a grounding presence that kept us on track without ever making us feel rushed and that tone made an enormous difference. Our top notch team, including Bree, Sarah, Jess, and so many other amazing staff also helped with our dresses, carried our trains, drove us in a golf cart for photos, and took wonderful care of our guests throughout the reception (who commented on how well they were looked after). We even found out afterward that the team had helped our flower girl tend to a wasp sting during the festivities. That kind of attentiveness speaks volumes. Any issue that arose they handled with utmost professionalism. Also, the food was fantastic and we STILL get so many compliments from guests! Our personal goal as the couple was to enjoy the food and that we did. One highlight for us was also the “reserved for newlyweds” appetizer plate brought to us in the bridal suite. Such a thoughtful touch. We cannot recommend The Barn, Bree, and the entire team highly enough. If you’re looking for a venue where you’ll feel genuinely cared for from the first conversation to the final exit, this is the place. Thank you so much to the staff at the Barn at Gibbet Hill for making our wedding so special!”

“I cannot speak highly enough about our experience hosting our wedding at The Curtis House by Gloriosa & Co. My husband and I got married a couple of weeks ago (September 2024) and our wedding was truly one the happiest, best days of our lives thanks to the love and personalization that Gloria and Emma put into planning and executing our day. We were drawn to so many things about the venue, including the charming setting of Ashfield, the rustic but modernized aesthetic of the barn, the beautiful gardens and greenhouse, and the house being an available space to get ready. We were also drawn to the convenience and uniqueness of being able to provide our floral arrangements from Gloria’s greenhouse and gardens on-site, and having all of the food and beverages taken care of through the venue’s catering and bar team. But what made us decide to book this venue for our special day was the attention that Gloria and Emma give each couple. This venue is not your typical wedding factory that puts on weddings multiple times a week, every week of the year; Gloria and Emma host between 12-15 weddings per year and consequently each couple they work with gets full access to the venue the weekend of their wedding and so much guidance during the planning process. We were able to cultivate a vegetarian menu consisting of so many of our favorite foods plus a number of signature dishes of the venue, such as a butternut squash galette that was a crowd favorite. Sustainability is also incredibly important to us as a couple, and Gloria and Emma are committed to sourcing only local, seasonal ingredients for the food and florals and minimizing waste, which meant so much to us. In terms of decor and furnishings, the venue has so much available for couples to use, such as tables, chairs, ceremony benches, several wedding arches to choose from, displays for food or guest favors, tableware, candles, string lights, and more. We did not have to rent or coordinate anything other than the few DIY projects we made, which Gloria and Emma effortlessly integrated into the set up for us. Being able to take care of practically everything through Gloria and Emma made planning so much simpler. On the wedding day, Gloria, Emma, and their team handled the venue set up in a few hours, which happened like a choreographed dance that required practically no work from us or our wedding parties other than providing input and approval along the way. Everything went extremely smoothly and we were able to be fully present. After our ceremony, my husband and I returned to the house, where Gloria had set up champagne and a spread of our hors d'oeuvres for us to enjoy over a few minutes of privacy, which is something she had recommended we do as we took in the moment together. Our guests have had nothing but positive things to say about our wedding and it was clear the day of how much fun everyone had. We have received so many compliments about how beautiful and authentic the venue was, how exquisite Gloria’s floral arrangements were, how delicious all of the food was (even the heavy meat-eaters loved the vegetarian menu), and how this will be a wedding they will always remember. Gloria made us feel like part of her family and we were so happy to be able to support her business. We truly could not have asked for a more memorable, personalized, loving, and beautiful wedding, and hope that many other couples have the pleasure of getting married at this special place.”
