My husband and I got married at Quonquont Farm this past August and we had the most incredible day! We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful venue! The event barn, pavilion, farmhouse, and gorgeous scenery around the farm made for the perfect space for our wedding. The events team was fantastic and so incredibly helpful from planning to frequent check-in meetings to the wedding day itself. – Allison Rodgers via Google reviews.

I cannot say enough good things about Quonquont Farm and its team. We got married here in September 2022 and it was truly perfect. Alexxis and the entire Quonquont team worked so hard to accommodate us as we planned our wedding from the West Coast, holding Zoom meetings, and FaceTime walkthroughs, and being quick to respond to emails. – Ava Marinelli via Google reviews.

This place is the perfect wedding venue- we cannot thank Quonquont enough for making our dream wedding come true.

Hillary was our event producer and did a wonderful job! Everything went smoothly on the wedding day, and there was plenty of staff to accommodate us. The wedding was even better than I could have imagined. Even though our initial event producer left for a different job, Hillary took over everything and did an amazing job. We had the ceremony on site and it was set up beautifully. Would recommend the Villa to any couple struggling to find a venue! – Jacob via Google reviews.

The Villa was such a fantastic venue and experience for us. Victoria, our wedding coordinator was literally perfect! It was amazing how smooth our wedding was thanks to Victoria and her staff. They literally have every single detail planned and coordinated. It seems over the top at first but then you realize why this venue prides itself on having your special day as smooth as possible. – Matthew Litchfield via Google reviews.

We got married on 8/13/22 at The Villa and it was absolute perfection. Ellen, our wedding planner, along with all the other staff were wonderful to work with. The day was seamless.

I wouldn’t change a single thing about my wedding. HIGHLY recommend this venue. – Kelsey Almeda via Google reviews.

Attended a wedding here in July 2022. The grounds are absolutely impeccable with beautiful gardens and flowers that are maintained at a level that a golf course would blush at. The inside is nice and well taken care of with excellent air conditioning for the July heat. Lovely indoor outdoor set up for ceremony and reception after. Absolutely loved this place and would recommend the venue for any type of event but particularly one that lets you enjoy the scenery outside! – Patrick Beaugrand via Google reviews.

Everything was perfect. The food was delicious. Everyone is still talking about the food a month later. All the workers were amazing and set everything up so beautifully.

We truly could not be happier with our choice of wedding venue at the Hampshire House. Our coordinators Michele and Lindsey were truly phenomenal every step of the way, from booking the date, through the tasting, and of course on the day of as well. The party at HH is well run, flowing well and with excellent servers and staff, without us needing to micromanage or even manage anything! On top of that, the venue itself is gorgeous, photographs beautifully, and is a perfect location for out-of-towners. We highly recommend the Hampshire House! – Melissa Yuan via Google reviews.

We went to a wedding here. Let’s start with the setting: superb. The staff: friendly and superb. The dinner service: excellent. The dinner itself: 5 stars superb. The drinks: good selection, courteous bartending and generous pours. The library is a great room for weddings, dining, and ultimately dancing. It is a great event venue. This is a popular venue so book early after a thorough examination of the facility. – Harvey Mains via Google reviews.

My daughter’s wedding was recently held at Hampshire House, followed by a brunch reception. Not only was it a beautiful venue in a quintessential Boston location, but the entire staff went above and beyond to make sure that every detail was carried out to perfection. From the first time that I spoke with Michele on the phone, I knew we were in good hands. All the details were meticulously taken care of so that there were no surprises!

The Gibbet Hill Barn wedding in Groton will forever be one of the most joyful, loving, laughing weddings I’ve ever photographed. The Barn at Gibbet Hill is just as beautiful on the inside as it has the outside. The day felt easy flowing and the staff was great to work with. Stefani, the coordinator was remarkable! The staff under her leadership was absolutely fantastic to work with. A great farm wedding spot! – Erica Ewing via Google reviews.

Best day ever!!!! They say it’s suppose to be good luck if it rains on your wedding day!? We had freezing rain, snow and sleet and the staff at the barn At Gibbet made everything run so smoothly! From the moment we walked through the door, we were taken care of! We are still in awe! – Kaylee Devincent via Google reviews.

My husband and I are so happy that we picked the Barn at Gibbet Hill for our wedding venue. From beginning to end, the Barn was always extremely responsive and professional, even when things became increasingly challenging and unpredictable with COVID-19. We initially picked a date in 2020 for our wedding, but were forced to postpone due to the pandemic until 2021. The Barn was very accommodating as we rescheduled, and still allowed us to hold a “minimony” on our original date. Both days were incredibly special, due in large part to the Barn. – Katherine Tsantes via Google reviews.

We had THE BEST time at Willowdale Estate. Our wedding was incredible and it is all thanks to the amazing team at Willowdale. We worked with Emily, who helped us plan the details.

Many guests commented on how delicious the appetizers, entrees, and cookies were! I cannot recommend this venue enough! – ChristineandScott Austin via Google reviews.

These historic Willowdale Estate wedding pictures will make you want to get married again. Or at least they did for me!

We hosted our baby shower here on 2/20/22, and absolutely loved the venue! The shower was stunning, and the event coordinator Alyssa was amazing from start to finish.

We photographed our first spring wedding at this gorgeous western MA venue last weekend and were blown away! From the covered ceremony pavilion (no worrying about rain!) to the Skinner Barn reception space on the property with tons of natural light, this venue was a photographer’s dream! We’ve been wanting to document a wedding here for years, because it’s practically in our backyard! So excited to capture more weddings at this lovely and photogenic space. Thanks to Dan for all of his help coordinating the wedding too, he was fantastic! – Dreamlove Photography via Google reviews.

My husband and I got married at VVF in May 2022 after finding the venue online. From start to finish, they made our wedding planning and day absolutely amazing and stress free.

I meet with Michael at Danversport and when we arrived she was already outside of the venue with all information in hand awaiting our arrival. He was so warm and welcoming and took all the time to answer our questions. We then called back a few hours after the tour to ask more questions about the venue and got a call back the same day!! They have been so helpful and we feel truly cared for. –
Teresa M. via Weddingwire.

We had our dream wedding at Danversport! We worked with several people during our wedding planning and everyone was very knowledgeable and attentive! Everything from the grounds to the food was exactly how I had imagined it. – Paige via Weddingwire.

Our wedding at Danversport was incredible. They literally do it all. They do the setup, coordinate the day of and make sure everything runs smoothly. The waterfront is amazingly beautiful and made great photos as well as the gorgeous ballroom. I can not say enough about the team and how everything came together so nicely. The timing was perfect all night and this is important as I have been to other weddings where there was a lot of downtimes and waiting around. – Michelle R. via Weddingwire.
