“The Colonial Hotel was the perfect choice for our wedding of 200 guests. Mary and her team were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our planning process, and they proved it when we needed them most. The day before our ceremony, the forecast called for rain and strong winds, but Mary jumped into action and rearranged our entire event indoors in less than 24 hours without missing a beat. What really impressed us was how they managed every single dietary restriction for all our guests without any issues or confusion. The space itself is elegant and timeless, and everything felt effortless from start to finish. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to make our day special.”

“We had our dream wedding at Grill 28 in September, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From start to finish, the staff was incredibly attentive, making the entire planning process smooth and enjoyable. One of the best things about this venue is that it provides all the necessities, including tables and chairs. We brought in some of our own chairs for the reception while using theirs for the ceremony. They also offer a wide selection of linens and even the option to add an extra tent to accommodate more guests. What makes this venue truly special is the flexibility to curate your wedding exactly as you envision it. Nestled on the beautiful Pease Golf Course, it’s a hidden gem—a true diamond in the rough! Unlike many wedding venues, we never felt like there was any price gouging. Everything was very reasonable and transparent. The accessibility of this venue is also a huge plus. It’s wheelchair-friendly, and the main tent is set on a concrete pad, so you don’t have to worry about wet or muddy grass—a huge relief if the weather is unpredictable! We had designated rooms to get ready in, and the food was absolutely out of this world! There are multiple spaces to utilize, including the garden patio—perfect for our cocktail hour—and the main tent for our reception. Another bonus is that the venue is owned by the same company as Popovers, so we were able to order our cake directly and even do a tasting! The menus are fully customizable, which made everything feel even more personal. Another big plus is the ample parking, making it easy for all of our guests. We truly have nothing but amazing things to say about Grill 28. If you're looking for a wedding venue that offers both beauty and exceptional service, this is the place!”

“Finding the perfect spot for our rehearsal dinner felt like searching for a hidden gem. We needed a venue that could comfortably hold 150 guests, offered a delicious menu, and had a charming atmosphere. Thankfully, our hunt led us to Portsmouth Gas Light's 3rd floor! From the moment we stepped into this beautiful downtown building (conveniently close to a parking garage!), we knew it was special. But what truly made the night unforgettable was Michelle, the Function Manager. Michelle was an absolute rockstar! She helped us navigate everything with ease, from handling dietary restrictions to selecting the perfect menu options and ensuring all our needs were met. The entire function team was professional and attentive, making the whole evening flow seamlessly. And let's not forget the food! It was incredible. Our guests raved about everything they tried.

“We genuinely could not have gotten through our wedding day without the Grove at Briar Barn Inn and Julia. We showed up with a bunch of stuff to drop off and honestly no real plan, but Julia made it all come together seamlessly. From start to finish, her communication was timely and to the point, and she was always available to answer any questions- which made planning so much easier and less stressful!! The venue itself is beautiful and the food was incredible—nobody can stop talking about how wonderful it was! Julia went above and beyond to help us on the day, and everything we hoped for actually happened. It was 100% worth it and we can't recommend them enough.”
