NHC Events at Searles Castle was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding! Their communication style made planning so smooth - the coordinators were extremely responsive, effective, and quick with their replies. The venue space itself is just gorgeous - beautiful, clean, and well-maintained with a medieval flair that made me feel like a princess. The NHC team was fantastic at maximizing the layout and effortlessly handling all the details and logistics. They were very hands-on, doing everything they could so my husband and I felt no stress.

Where do I even begin - Stone Garden is a fairytale dream! Every single aspect of our experience, from the first moment we set foot on the property, was perfect! We used Stone Garden as our ‘welcome party’ venue the night before (we had a taco truck come yard games and bar service by Stone Garden), our wedding ceremony and reception venue, our florals, our bartending with custom drinks, and our coordinators. We are SO happy we did. For our wedding, we wanted something outdoors but with a rain plan, with a view on the water, with parking, flexible with our decor ideas, and close to hotels. We got all of this and beyond. Kristen and Frank really make magic happen. They are experts in paying attention to detail, going the extra mile to make your vision come to life, and making you feel important and celebrated. The second we met them we knew we were in good, trustworthy hands. Our wedding dreams included driving up to the ceremony in a 1955 Chevy, disco balls hung over the dance floor, tons of candles and bud vases, an extra cake for a birthday, vintage furniture, a portrait artist, an audio guestbook, and more. All of this was PERFECTLY achieved in the most gloriously beautiful way. IN THE RAIN. We were expecting a drizzle but it totally poured on our wedding day. Kristen and Frank communicated with us up to the final hours to decide how we could make the most of our day, and they were able to pivot and adapt to every single change- including moving furniture and putting sides on the tent. Their team kept us fed, informed, and completely carefree all night long. Our guests cannot stop telling us how beautiful the venue was (the view, the landscaping, the lights, everything!) and how nice and talented all the staff were. Everyone asks me how I found such a gem. We all loved it so much. It felt elegant and cozy at the same time. Every single recommendation for vendors, hotels, transportation -every piece of advice offered to us by Kristen and Frank- was so valuable and impeccable. I will never stop talking about my flowers- Kristen absolutely NAILED my vision and I have preserved all of them in as many ways as I could. Frank made the most gorgeous, delicious drinks for us and we drank them out of our own special glasses we brought from home, and the staff kept them full for us all night long, without us ever once asking!! Kristen’s coordination staff even took photos and videos for us throughout the night, and some of my very favorite keepsakes of the whole wedding are from them. They are angels!!! The whole team!!!!! I cannot recommend Stone Garden enough, I will be raving about it FOREVER.

The Hawthorn Portsmouth NH 
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $15,000
  • Offer

Our story begins in 1858 when Frank Jones arrived in Portsmouth with a dream of brewing ale. Within three decades, The Frank Jones Brewery became the largest ale producer in the country. As ale production expanded, the brewery added a cooperage and scald house to clean the barrels. Workers used scalding hot rocks to sanitize barrels because soap and water would cause them to warp. Once cleaned, the barrels were filled with Jones’ signature ales. The Hawthorn now occupies this Scald House, retaining its original red-brick walls, towering beams, and industrial windows. “Cheers,” then, has a whole new meaning at The Hawthorn. When you raise your glass at your event, you’ll be toasting in a place that’s positively brewing with Portsmouth ale-making heritage and local history.

We got married on 10/4/24 and can honestly say it was the most perfect day, thanks in large part to the amazing team at MCC! From our first tour of the venue to wedding day, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The venue itself is stunning—elegant, spacious, and with breathtaking views of the golf course that created a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and every detail was thoughtfully designed to make our day unforgettable. The food was absolutely incredible! Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious everything was and said it’s the best wedding food they’ve ever had. From the passed hors d'oeuvres, to the main courses and sides, the catering team truly outdid themselves! What made the whole experience even better was the help and guidance from Fallon and Kim. From the very beginning, the planning process was so smooth and stress-free. Fallon and Kim are so organized, professional, and attentive. They helped us with every detail, offered fantastic suggestions, and made sure everything was executed perfectly. It was clear they genuinely cared about making our wedding day exactly what we had envisioned. Thanks to MCC, our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out, and we’re so grateful to the team for their hard work and dedication.
