Amazing Experience!
We booked Hampshire House late in our planning and were worried about pulling everything together, but Victoria and her team made the entire process smooth and stress-free. From start to finish, she communicated clearly and worked with us to understand what we wanted without ever being pushy. On the day of our wedding, Victoria kept everything running perfectly—she wrangled our family, handled all the details, and even printed out name plates we forgot. The venue itself was gorgeous and elegant, and our guests couldn't stop complimenting the space and how everything came together. Victoria genuinely cared about making our day special and went above and beyond to make sure we felt supported. We couldn't have imagined our wedding without Hampshire House and Victoria's help. Would recommend to anyone!

May 2026 Wedding
The Hampshire House was love at first sight for me! The venue is stunning and everything I had envisioned for our intimate wedding. As the planning process began Sydney made every step clear and easy to complete. She really understands the wedding industry as a whole and helped guide us through the process. When the wedding day came the staff was amazing and beyond accommodating. Sydney made it possible for us to actually enjoy our day which I am truly grateful for. I highly recommend using the Hampshire House as your wedding venue.

Absolutely Beautiful!
I truly cannot stop obsessing over our choice to have hosted our wedding at Hampshire House. If you're looking for an elegant, world class experience with top notch catering, you will not regret choosing Hampshire House. My husband and I worked closely with Michele to plan our perfect day. From start to finish, Michele was attentive, professional, and so so helpful and responsive. She made this process so easy for us and helped us navigate through all of our choices for the big day. The wedding day itself was FLAWLESS and sooo seamless. Michele, Savannah, and every single staff member was kind, attentive, and made sure that our evening flowed smoothly. If there was anything wrong, we really did not know about it. We are so impressed with the level of care Hampshire house dedicated to us. Thank you all so much again for such a beautiful experience. All of our guests cannot stop complimenting us on how beautiful the venue was and how delicious the food was!
Michele Giacomozzi.•May 1, 2026Thank you so much for these incredibly kind words! It was truly an honor to be part of your wedding day, and we’re thrilled to hear how seamless and special the experience felt. On behalf of Michele, Savannah and our entire team, thank you for trusting Hampshire House with such an important celebration. We loved celebrating with you and wish you both a lifetime of happiness! 💍✨

Wonderful event space
We can’t say enough great things about the wonderful pre-wedding dinner and welcome reception we had at the Hampshire House in February 2026. The second floor library worked out perfectly for both events. It was beautifully decorated, table settings were elegant, and the staff were very accommodating to us bringing in our own personal touches such as flowers and photos. Coordination with Victoria Costa was seamless. She was very easy to work with, attentive to our needs, and offered many helpful suggestions. The food and beverage options for both events were outstanding. Our customized appetizer and dinner selections were delicious as were the dessert selections for the reception. Victoria’s suggested choices and quantities were just right for the number of guests. Throughout the evening our on-site manager Tori Green made sure the events ran smoothly and efficiently, and we never felt rushed. All the staff — waitstaff, bartenders — were friendly and professional. Tori really ensured the evening was special. The bride and groom were so very happy. It was an amazing start to a very special weekend.

A lovely, elegant wedding venue
We had a wonderful wedding reception at the Hampshire House! The space is gorgeous and the location unbeatable. We loved decorating the fireplace with flowers and even getting to turn on the fire. The space felt elegant and homey - just the vibe we wanted. It ended up being a bit rainy on our wedding day, so it was also great to have an indoor space and not worry about rain plans. The staff was very easy to work with, we loved the food, the service, and the live piano with dinner.
