“We had the pleasure of having my husband’s group Christmas party at Andover Country Club in Andover, MA. We could not have been happier and more impressed by the professionalism of our event coordinator Jordyn. From our very first conversation until the evening of the party, she was unbelievably diligent, respectful of our needs and requests, very courteous, accommodating, and a joy to work with. We had all the details in the contract, but it wasn’t until we saw it , that we realized they went above and beyond to make this event very festive and unforgettable for everyone. Our guests were in awe of the venue, with all the decorations, the exceptionally prepared delicious food, and the impeccable service throughout the event. We can’t wait to come back for our annual party at the end of this year! We highly recommend this place for any event! They know how to do it and they do it the best!”

“I highly recommend Four Points Wakefield for wedding room blocks and events! Almost all of my wedding guests (plus me and my husband) stayed here for my wedding weekend, and I hosted my after party and farewell brunch here. I coordinated the room block and events through Katie, who was an absolute delight to work with - she was very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs were met. She even put together a slideshow of me and my husband to welcome guests to the hotel, which was a huge hit! The staff at Four Points Wakefield also were extremely professional, friendly, and on top of the events - they helped put out the food for the after party, which we hosted in the hotel bar, and set up a lovely brunch for our guests after the wedding. Both events went so smoothly due to the staff! Lastly, the suite we stayed in was a perfect place for bridesmaids to get ready in. Overall, I was so impressed with Four Points Wakefield’s service!!”
