“Southwick is not only a great place to go for a fun summer activity, but it was also the best venue I could have ever asked for. They are beyond helpful throughout the whole process- beginning to end. Sarah is an amazing coordinator in every sense of the word. Heather is incredible at what she does as well, really loved having her as my bridal attendant. They did a beautiful job with my wedding and I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Southwick!”

“We loved having our wedding at the Seacoast Science Center. The venue is simply stunning. We were able to have both our ceremony and reception there with gorgeous views. Holly was so responsive over email during the process. Guests loved being able to go inside and see the marine animals too - it made for such unique and memorable experiences. We got so many incredible photos with the water in the background. Having our wedding at this one-of-a-kind venue really made our day feel special.
