“We had our wedding on June 7th 2025 at Lord Thompson Manor. I cannot express enough how you should have your wedding here. Andrew, Jackie, Janice and Ted are top tier. Janice made us feel so special and throughout the day advocated for me. When the rain stopped and i wanted pictures outside, Ted went and got a leaf blower to blow away the rain so that my dress didn’t get wet. I do not say this lightly that they will forever be like family to me. They made the best day of our lives extra special. Our guests are still saying to us they can’t stop thinking about our wedding, that it was magical and the best wedding they’ve ever have ever gone to and I owe that all to Lord Thompson Manor. I will be eternally grateful for the way they made us and our wedding feel extra special. You are making a mistake if you do not book with Lord Thompson Manor.”

“As soon as we toured Pinecroft Estate and met with Shelley, my husband and I knew that we had found our venue. Shelley was wonderful in coordinating every last detail, from our decor, to our menu and weekend schedules, she had everything covered. We loved that they had so much decor inventory to choose from that made it easy to personalize our day. Our guests raved about the food, the ambiance, and how beautiful the entire day was. Our bridal party was in such good hands with our day of coordinator Shauna, everything ran smoothly and we were able to be fully present and enjoy our day knowing that they had everything under control. I can’t sing their praises and recommend them enough, our wedding was truly incredible thanks to Shelley, Shauna and the staff at Pinecroft Estate!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our wedding! We wanted a venue with history, beautiful views, affordable, and only had one wedding a day -- and we got it! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning scenery and beautiful architecture. The staff was incredibly accommodating, the bartenders were so thoughtful. One brought in mint from her garden, as mojitos were my favorite drink! While there were a few moments of uncertainty and lack of communication in the planning process, it didn't take away from the magic of the day. The outdoor ceremony space was perfect, surrounded by lush greenery and gorgeous views. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful everything was! Inside, the reception area was equally impressive, with plenty of room for dancing and celebrating. The food was absolutely delicious, and they offered a variety of options that everyone loved. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect, from the decor to the service. Overall, our experience at this venue was nothing short of magical. We feel so lucky to have chosen this place to start our new chapter together. Highly recommend it to any couple looking for the perfect and affordable wedding venue!”

“We could not have asked for a better wedding venue—or a better coordinator—than what we found here. From the very beginning, Alyson was an absolute dream to work with. She made the entire planning process feel easy and stress-free, always kind, composed, and incredibly helpful. Even with the usual wedding chaos and a forecast that turned into torrential rain, Alyson never once lost her cool. She handled everything with grace and calm, and we genuinely feel like we hit the jackpot having her by our side. Thanks to her, the day came together perfectly. She played a huge part in creating what truly was the best day of our lives. The barn itself is stunning, and even though the weather didn’t cooperate, the venue’s gorgeous new pavilion gave us a beautiful backup plan that kept everything feeling magical and cozy. Our guests loved it, and we were so relieved to know we were in such good hands. Also, the dinner was delicious—we received so many compliments on the food. Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and we’re still glowing from the experience. If you’re looking for a venue with heart, beauty, and someone as amazing as Alyson to help bring your day to life, this is it.”

“Donna was truly the MVP of our wedding day. From the moment we started working with her, she made us feel completely supported, organized and confident that everything was under control. Her attention to detail, professionalism and calm presence allowed us to actually enjoy our wedding instead of worrying about logistics. Not only is the venue absolutely breathtaking, but Donna ensures every detail comes together flawlessly. The grounds, the views, and the overall atmosphere created the perfect backdrop for our wedding and her expertise made it shine even more. On the day of the wedding, Donna handled every moving piece seamlessly. She kept the timeline running perfectly, coordinated vendors, answered questions before we even had to ask them and solved any issues behind the scenes without us ever knowing. She made everyone feel comfortable and taken care of. What sets Donna apart is how much she genuinely cares. She treated our wedding as if it were her own and went above and beyond in ways we never expected. Thanks to her, our day was everything we dreamed of and more. If you’re looking for a coordinator who is organized, experienced, kind, and absolutely exceptional at what she does, Donna is the one. We cannot recommend her, Kristen and the crew at Pleasant Valley Country Club highly!”

“We truly could not have asked for a better wedding venue. We booked well in advance, which meant I had plenty of questions throughout the planning process. Every single time I reached out, the team was quick to respond, helpful, and incredibly patient. From day one, it was obvious that they genuinely cared about making our wedding everything we wanted it to be. On the wedding day, Ariana was our coordinator, and she was absolutely amazing. She was always nearby making sure Chris and I had everything we needed and checking in to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. Every time I turned around, someone from the venue was asking if they could get us anything or help in some way. It made us feel so taken care of throughout the entire day. Erin handled our design details and was wonderful to work with. There were a few last-minute adjustments I wanted made, and she handled them quickly and seamlessly. Everything looked exactly how I had envisioned it. One thing that really stood out was how experienced and organized the entire team was. They clearly know weddings inside and out. They kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes so we could focus on enjoying the day. The food was absolutely incredible. We attended a tasting beforehand, which was such a fun experience, and somehow the wedding-day meal was even better. Guests are still talking about how amazing the food was. The drinks were equally impressive. We chose signature cocktails based solely on ideas we liked and trusted the venue to bring them to life, and they absolutely nailed it. We received compliments on them all night long. I was initially a little nervous about the venue hosting multiple weddings on the same day, but that concern completely disappeared once we experienced it firsthand. Our ceremony and reception felt completely separate and private. Once we left the ceremony space, we were in our own building and focused entirely on our celebration. I didn’t even see the other bride all day. It never felt crowded or shared, and it certainly didn’t take away from the experience. Another unexpected bonus was the surrounding area. There are so many beautiful lake houses and Airbnbs nearby, which made it easy for our friends and family to stay close and turn the wedding into a full weekend experience. The venue itself is stunning, the food and drinks are incredible, and the staff goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. We had the best day of our lives, and a huge part of that is because of the team that made it all happen. We cannot recommend them highly enough.”

Some ideas need time and space to materialize. Transforming an old rodeo horse farm into a creative compound for events and projects has proven to be a challenging example. Over time, thoughtful outbuildings and spaces are popping up throughout a fourteen-acre campus of oak forests and wild meadows. One hundred feet of wiggly barn welcomes experiences from intimate projects to large wedding celebrations with loved ones. Now, it’s a steady push towards sustainable, creative projects working in sync with the natural surroundings. Get out in the woods, get a little weird. Try to have a good time.

“Right when we saw Okay Island and met the team we knew it was the right fit for us. The communication was straightforward and reassuring every step of the way, which made planning stress-free. What sets this place apart is that it doesn't feel like a wedding factory—it's a true reflection of Adam's artistic vision, built by his own hands. The greenhouse with its natural lighting and the field beyond created the perfect backdrop for our day, and guests couldn't stop talking about the unconventional vibe. We felt like part of the Okay Island family rather than just customers, and that personal touch made all the difference. The whole experience felt organic and genuine, exactly what we were looking for.”

“Highfields Golf & CC was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, Tracy the wedding coordinator was incredibly responsive, quick to answer our questions, and open and informative throughout the planning process. She helped to make sure we had everything squared away, from when we should be sending out our save the dates and invites all the way up to what sort of vendors we would need in order to help make our day special! We had multiple meetings with her well before our wedding to make sure we are hitting all the milestones, while helping to offer good advice, and ideas on what we should add for our day. Tracy was so friendly and great to work with, she was so accommodating and helped us fulfill any special requests that we had as best as she could! Tracy was even with us on the day of our wedding, helping to coordinate all of our vendors and be the point of contact for them, so we ourselves did not have to worry about anything other than getting ready! The venue itself is so pretty and in a great location, tucked away off the main road it is a nice secluded area! The ballroom itself was spotless, with a modern and updated design that provided an elegant backdrop for our celebration. But the real highlight was the beautiful outdoor ceremony space, which offered a scenic and serene setting for our vows. With ample room to accommodate all of our guests, the seamless flow between the ceremony area and the ballroom made the day effortless. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue to host our special day!”

“I had the pleasure of working with Hope Lodge Venue recently as a wedding photographer and I can say they are a fantastic choice . Their communication style is incredibly responsive, helpful, and enthusiastic - they go above and beyond to ensure every detail is taken care of. Great quality of work for a the value ; the venue is open, clean, bright, and airy, creating the perfect atmosphere for a wedding or big event . One memorable example was when the staff dressed up along with the Gatsby-themed wedding, truly immersing themselves in the couple's vision. My only suggestion would be for them to potentially expand their parking area in the future, but overall, Hope Lodge Venue is an excellent option for couples seeking a beautiful, well-managed wedding venue and one they could decorate and make their own.”

There are so many spots on the farm for your ceremony, for photos, etc. The farm was in full bloom in June as well. The bridal and groomsmen suite were also stunning, and offered a beautiful and cozy space for everyone to get ready in the morning. Bill and Nicole are also incredible. They truly did everything possible to make our wedding day so special. We didn't have to worry about a single thing, they were on it. From making adjusting for weather, setting up our beautiful reception tent, to attending the fire and more, they made our day absolutely flawless. If anything went wrong, my husband and I didn't know about it because Bill and Nicole just took care of it. We absolutely loved our wedding day and our guests kept saying the same.

“From day one, Lauren and the team at Alpine Country Club made planning our wedding feel effortless. Lauren handled every detail with such skill that the day ran like clockwork, and we honestly can't say enough about her professionalism and warmth. The venue itself was gorgeous and had more than enough room for our 177 guests to move around and enjoy themselves. The only small hiccup we experienced was with the bar service—several guests mentioned the bartenders seemed stretched thin, which was a bummer since my husband and his police officer friends/family were ready to celebrate. Despite that one issue, Alpine Country Club delivered an incredible day for us, and we'd absolutely recommend them to other couples looking for a solid venue with an outstanding coordinator & unbeatable pricing!”

“It’s been 3 months since our October wedding and our friends/family still rave about our wedding night. Glenpharmer was still relatively new to weddings and most guests had never been to the location before. The compliments of the facility were endless. Everyone was beyond impressed with the food that was cooked to perfection. The quality of the alcohol and drinks provided are far and away better than your standard venue. I’m not much of a review person, but your wedding is important so we need to give credit where credit is due. Glenpharmer knocked it out of the park for us.

“My husband and I were married at Salem’s this weekend and I wouldn’t change a thing about the day or the entire planning process! Honestly, I didn’t know anything about planning a wedding but Donna and Martha took care of everything I needed and even the things I didn’t know I needed. Through out planning communication was clear and timely. Donna answered all my questions and accommodated any changes (even last minute) without batting an eye. Salems has great relationships with local venders and their ability to collaborate made it all the more seamless. On the day of my family and I chose to get ready at Salem’s; we had a comfy suite and they served us a delicious sit down lunch with salads and mimosas in a private dining space. When a couple of little girls showed up as a surprise the kitchen staff even made them their own macaroni and cheese plates! The ceremony space and overall landscaping was perfect with flowers and fresh cut grass. Our guests loved taking photos on the beautiful grounds and our professional photos look like they are straight out of a fairy tale. At the reception everyone raved about the delicious prime rib dinner and strawberry short cake. The serving staff and bartenders were fun, personable, professional, attentive and really seemed invested in making my family’s day perfect. If I could do my wedding day again I would absolutely choose this venue.”

“From the moment we stepped into The Graduate Providence for our venue tour, we were awestruck by the beauty of the space. The colors, the ambience, and the ornate decor were exactly the aesthetic we were envisioning for our wedding. We felt immediately certain that we had found our venue. The deal was further sealed when we met Elise, the venue coordinator. She is the embodiment of the type of professionalism, enthusiasm, and wisdom you hope for in a wedding venue coordinator. She patiently answered every question we had, responded to every email promptly, and made us feel extremely at ease about our big day with the level of attention and respect she paid to our ideas. She took the time to understand exactly what we had planned and executed it flawlessly. She truly was a decisive factor in our booking The Graduate Providence. The Graduate Providence itself is an absolutely extraordinary location. We had our ceremony on the Parkview Terrace, our cocktail hour on the Atrium Balcony, and our reception in the Capital Ballroom. We loved how convenient it was to have our wedding in one place (and how convenient it was for our vendors, many of whom had worked with the Graduate Providence before and were thrilled to do so again) and yet, every space within in felt so unique. We also loved being right in the heart of downtown Providence, with so many restaurants, shops, and iconic sights conveniently close by for our guests. On top of that, every staff member with whom we interacted—from the front desk to the waitstaff—could not have been more delightful. They were so friendly and polite throughout the entire process. We had a pretty significant number of out-of-town guests, and all of them reported that they absolutely loved their stay at The Graduate, many thanks to the attentiveness and care of the staff. We truly cannot speak highly enough or more fervently recommend The Graduate Providence for your wedding day. It honestly defined our entire wedding day in the best way. We are eternally grateful to Elise and the entire Graduate staff for all of the hard work, care, and enthusiasm they put into making our wedding day a dream come true.”
