Booking Fall River Country Club for our wedding was the BEST decision we made. This venue is EVERYTHING and it was the most reasonably priced of all the venues we looked at. The view over the water is breathtaking and provided the best backdrop to our ceremony. We were also able to take beautiful pictures out on the course with the water in the background. The best part of our wedding was dancing outside under the tent all night. The DJ provided up lighting that lit up the tent to the music and it made the whole experience. We had a fire pit tended to all night as well for those that needed a quick break! I cannot stress enough how incredible the food is, especially the dessert which is all homemade by the chef!! They will even customize the menu for you! Lastly, their staff is unmatched. From day one we worked with Tammy to make all of our wishes for the day come true. Tammy is an outstanding coordinator and a total pro in this business. She was always so kind, calm, collected, and organized which is a bride’s dream! She went above and beyond for us and anytime I asked her for something she would say yes we can, or yes we have that, or no but I can get that or make that for you. I felt completely taken care of the whole way. She made everything so easy and I felt like I didn’t have to lift a finger. I dropped off all of my decorations the day before and she had the entire venue set up (plus extra!) perfectly for our wedding without ever asking me a question the day of. I was so impressed with how everything looked. Then at the end of the night she made sure it was all packed up in our cars and I didn’t have to do a thing!! She made sure all of our needs were met throughout the day and checked in on us to make sure we had food and drinks. The wait staff and bartenders were also so kind and attentive to all of our guests. They truly made me feel so special. I had the most incredible wedding day, absolutely perfect, and it is no doubt due to all those at the Fall River Country Club! Book them now I promise you will not be disappointed!!!

If you’re looking for a scenic wedding venue on the water with amazing food, easy communication, and seamless coordination, The Lakehouse is it! Almost a month later and we have not stopped receiving compliments about our wedding day. We got married in early November, so there wasn’t much foliage on the trees, but that did not take away any of the beauty of this venue! We lucked out with weather and had a gorgeous outdoor ceremony in front of the lake. The transition from our ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception was flawless and incredibly well-organized. The venue itself is breathtaking with its large windows, offering stunning views and a layout that allowed for an easy and natural flow throughout the day. There are also SO MANY photo ops, so even if weather didn’t cooperate, we would have had gorgeous photos no matter what! The food was nothing short of amazing! All of our guests, even our most high-maintenance ones, were highly impressed from our passed hors d’oeuvres, to our piping hot dinner. They LOVED the cookies & milk station, as well as our late-night french fry bar! I had been dreaming about this day for as long as I can remember, and I am super type-a, so I have been planning every detail for awhile! It was important to me that certain details were executed the way I had envisioned them. We were assigned Victoria as our Event Producer about 8 months prior to our wedding. She gave us the best advice and suggestions throughout the planning process, which is appreciated when you have so many decisions to make! We had a large wedding of 180 guests, as well as an 8-piece band, so it was important to us to have a large dance floor. Victoria put together the perfect floor plan that allowed us to dance the night away! On the day of our wedding, she setup all of our décor the exact way we envisioned it, and then some! We were so happy to have her there, and she was equally excited to be there for us. We truly did not have to lift a finger once we got to the venue! Our Event Manager, Aubre, kept everything running smoothly behind-the-scenes on our wedding day to the point where we did not have to worry about a thing. Our Wedding Attendant, Emma, was always right there when we needed her! She carried my bouquet or drink, bustled my dress, and even made sure we had and ate our appetizers, dinner, and dessert! These 3 women were lifesavers, and we could not have gotten through the day without them! They were so kind, thoughtful, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure us and our guests were happy and taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful, stress-free experience, and we are so grateful to The Lakehouse and Saphire Event Group team for making our wedding day so perfect and unforgettable!

Galilee Beach Club was the perfect venue for our wedding! From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us like royalty. Their communication was friendly, supportive, and accurate throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking, with clean, modern decor and views that will take your breath away. We loved having our feet in the sand while getting married with the beautiful ocean as our backdrop. The food was incredible - better than most venues we've been to. Emily, the host, and the entire staff were so encouraging and made sure all of our guests were having a great time. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day at this amazing venue!

We used the Tree Top Room. A little under 100 guests. The outdoor ceremony space is beautiful. It’s deceiving because we were wondering how our guests would fit but it was more than enough. It’s also shaded which was perfect for a hot day. Wedding packages are very inclusive and don’t leave a lot for you to worry about. We went with the Ruby package which included 4 passed apps, a cheese and fruit display, champagne toast, salad course, choice of 3 entrees, wedding cake allowance and center pieces for the reception tables(sweet heart table was an extra fee but was reasonable). We added a late night snack station as well. We worked with Janet and had a Day of coordinator, banquet captain and a bridal attendant. The entire staff were absolutely amazing. We got so many compliments from our guests about how smoothly everything went, how beautiful the venue was and how delicious the food was. If you are looking for an all inclusive place that will literally do everything and take away any chance of stress.. I cannot recommend them enough!! They really know what they are doing!
