Choosing the Barn on the Pemi was the best decision we made when it came to planning our wedding! From the very beginning they made the process so easy! As soon as we toured we fell in love! The atmosphere is perfect and the greenhouse gives the option for an outdoor wedding regardless of the weather! We knew that we wanted a Halloween wedding, but end of October is always a toss up with weather! We lucked out and got a 70 degree day and ended up switching to the terrace! The views were breathtaking! Our coordinator Krysta was incredible! She was always there to help out with any problems or questions leading up to our wedding! She went above and beyond the day of and truly made our day so special!! By the end she didn’t feel like a coordinator, she felt like a friend! The food was incredible! All our guests have reached out to rave about the food! Overall the barn was just incredible in every aspect and gave us the wedding of our dreams!

Had my wedding at mountain top on 7/31 and it was everything i could’ve ever dreamed of. All of my guests are still raving about it saying “wedding of the century” and “best wedding I’ve ever been to”. They helped me with all the planning and made the process so much easier. They have so much to offer, from gorgeous views to fun activities. The groom and groomsmen all went skeet shooting the morning of before the wedding and they had so much fun. We rented several guest houses and had the Jewel as our bridal suite and it was absolutely stunning. The staff there was very attentive and helpful. My planner, Miranda, was super helpful and my day of coordinator, Elizabeth, was absolutely amazing. She worked so hard to make the day run smoothly and everything was so perfect. Genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day and I can’t wait to go back there on our anniversaries and enjoy all that the resort has to offer. It was worth every dime

Keith and Nicole at The Grateful Dane Lodge were absolutely amazing. They kept in touch with us throughout the planning process and promptly answered any questions we had. The venue itself was the best space I've ever been in - I knew it would be my wedding venue the second I walked into it, long before I was even engaged.

My husband and I got married at Lake Shore Village Resort in May 2025, and it was the wedding weekend of our dreams. If you want a venue where everyone can stay together, relax, and celebrate in one beautiful lakeside location, LSVR is it. We wanted a camp-style but elevated experience, and LSVR delivered beyond expectations. Marissa, our coordinator, was amazing: organized, calm, and on top of every detail. Even when rain forced us to move our ceremony into the tent (along with all the other May/June Saturday brides in New England), she and the team handled it flawlessly and the ceremony and reception ended up feeling incredibly intimate and special. We had 130 guests on-site for three days of pickleball tournaments, a pizza welcome party, kayaking, volleyball, and an after-party bonfire (thanks to Leif, who kept the fire going all night). The farewell pancake breakfast hosted by Michael and his wife was the perfect ending to the weekend. We cannot recommend this venue or team enough. Our guests are still talking about it and so are we. Thank you Marissa and LSVR!! We can't wait to come back one day!

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!

Cardigan Lodge is THE place if you want to spend quality time with your people on your wedding day. We had guests come up Friday afternoon and they stayed through Sunday morning which allowed us to meaningfully connect with each of our guests. A favorite moment was early Saturday morning drinking coffee and puzzling by the fireplace before the commotion of wedding day began. Every meal was excellent and accommodated a large variety of dietary restrictions. The AMC staff was happy to help and executed each task we asked of them with care and attention to detail. Carter (business manager) and Skye (lodge manager) were excellent to work with. They were responsive to our questions and set expectations for what the AMC would provide vs. what we would need to coordinate from the start. For us, the lodge was a blank slate and, with the AMC's help, we made my lofty vision a reality. But really, Cardigan Lodge is beautiful as is and the mountains and forest provide a stunning backdrop on their own. My husband and I cannot recommend Cardigan Lodge enough, we wouldn't change a single detail if we had to do it over again. photography - Erica Warren Photography florist - Mountain Roots Farm

We got married on May 30th, 2026 at The Westbrook Inn and it was everything that we had hoped for in a wedding weekend, and then 100x more than that. The team, the venue, the grounds, the care, the weekend package - every single thing was perfectly run, beautifully executed, and well communicated. We cannot recommend The Westbrook Inn highly enough to any couple looking to have the best weekend of their life. In planning, Marc was exceptionally organized, communicative, and helpful. Once the weekend came, the entire Sirigusa family was so delightful and professional that it became a topic of conversation among many of our guests, who noted how warm everything felt and how much they appreciated the family environment. Specifically with the weekend itself, Marc and Karen were above and beyond anyone’s best hopes. They were on top of every detail, ahead of any potential setback or obstacle, and added to the joy, fun, and energy of it all. There are a million moving parts, and they were moving us through it all fluidly, calmly, and easily. They were so on top of everything that we were able to just breathe and enjoy the day. The grounds, tent, and property were all so beautifully decorated, colorful, warm, and inviting, and because the whole weekend was in one place, it all felt very familial and backyard wedding-y, while being handled and directed by a professional’s professional. The flowers were in bloom, the trees were gorgeous and made it all feel very private and cut off from any noise from the outside world, and the house and tent were just beautiful spaces. As for our weekend package, that was a massive draw - and in retrospect was even better than we had hoped. The convenience of checking in on Friday and not having to leave the property for the entire weekend made everything feel so easy. We were able to even drop off decor with them in advance, so that we had no worries on Friday checking in for the weekend. So many other venues that we looked at required same day drop off because they usually had a wedding the night prior, which felt rushed / stressful. Anything Westbrook can do to alleviate stress, streamline efforts, and reduce burden on the family throughout the weekend - they do it! Everything was so beautiful and well run, we can’t imagine a single thing we would change - and we are so lucky to have had the best weekend of our life here!
