Kimball Jenkins Estate

  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

This venue was originally the private residence of the Kimball family, the elegant Victorian Mansion and Gardens as well as the casual Carriage House will give guests a memorable experience at this historical Concord, NH estate.

Kimball Jenkins was the most fairytale, dream wedding venue for our wedding in October. The large sycamore trees filled with autumn leaves, the beautiful details inside of the mansion, the unique carriage house, and the large garden area where we held our ceremony & outdoor tent reception was all of the decor we needed to complete our wedding. My husband and I really enjoyed working with Dawn (the wedding venue coordinator), she was really what sold us on the venue! The opportunity to work with someone who was so professional, flexible, and friendly was what made the wedding planning process that much better. Dawn did an incredible job helping us plan our outdoor tent rentals, use of all of the amenities on-site and went above and beyond to help us on the day of the wedding. All of the staff at kimball jenkins are very welcoming! We will always remember kimball jenkins estate as our rainy, fairytale wedding venue & will definitely be back to see the beautiful downtown concord area, the estate at kimball jenkins and to say hello to Dawn!!

On behalf of our family and staff, we look forward to working with you to create lifelong memories

Absolutely speechless. Dell-Lea is chef’s kiss perfect. We had the most amazing fall weather and foliage and sunset. Completely blow away by how effortlessly beautiful the day was - we brought no outside/ceremony decorations because the backdrop is so stunning. Laurie - our day of coordinator - was the master of all masters. She handled everything and seemed to be in 10 places at once all night long. She always checked in with us to see if we needed more food or drinks. She seamlessly handled a vendor snafu - our three bus drivers did not order a meal when I asked before our final headcount was due, but requested a meal on arrival at the venue. Laurie provided them each a meal and I didn’t hear a peep about it until the night was over! She helped my family pack up our decorations at the end of the night and made sure we had everything we needed. She even donated my bridesmaids bouquets to a local nursing home! The food - cannot say enough about how delicious the food was. Multiple guests came up to us during and shortly after dinner service to rave about their meals - the stuffed chicken, espresso encrusted filet, and cashew cheese ravioli. All so good, and my husband and I had all three at our table! The appetizers - incredible! The family recipe crab rangoons are worth the hype! The bartenders were incredible all night and nailed our signature cocktails. Working with Dell-Lea was seamless. I sent only a handful of emails before our details meeting because everything is so clear. Dell-Lea offers rental decorations, so we chose to rent table numbers, eucalyptus strands, centerpiece accents, and popular signage, saving us so much money. We cannot say enough good things about Dell-Lea - our day was so beautiful and perfect. We hope to be a guest at Dell-Lea someday!

Rosewood Country Inn

Bradford, NH
  • Up to 85 guests

Victorian Inn where silent film stars like Charlie Chaplin, Gloria Swanson, Mary Pickford and many more would summer. Our Inn retains the charm of yesterday, but with an eye to the future with electric car charging stations, WIFI, and modern conveniences to keep you entertained.

I cannot say enough positive things about the Rosewood Country Inn as a wedding venue. This venue is special in that you get the entire 11-room inn for the weekend (Fri-Sun), and so we were able to have our closest friends and family staying with us, which was a blast! The inn offers a beautiful country setting on the outside that is perfect for an outdoor ceremony. We held ours at the gazebo in the courtyard, which was surrounded by beautiful trees and scenery that make for gorgeous pictures. The dining hall of the inn hosts the reception, and is perfect for an intimate and stylish dining experience that then morphs a dance floor! The food is excellent (Stan's stuffed french toast can't be missed), not only for the reception but the rehearsal dinner and breakfasts on Sat and Sun. Stan and Odo are extremely kind and gracious hosts, who let us make our wedding truly our own!

Saltonstall Farm 

5.0

Stratham, NH
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $11,000

Historic, breath taking 4 story barn The farm and barn are about 200 years old, and the barn was originally used for cows. Over the years, it has been very well taken care of, so the original beams are still there, in sizes and shapes that you just can't get anymore! The owners are the third generation in their family to take care of the property and are very grateful to be the current stewards. The barn renovations completed in 2020 and it is all ADA compliant and up to code. In the barn, there is a full sound system, 14 chandeliers, a beautiful live edge bar top, two high end composting toilets (the flushing kind!), massive barn blue doors on each end, and a grand entrance staircase. The barn holds up to 200 people and is big enough that you don't have to rent a tent even with tables and chairs, a major benefit and money saver! In the event of rain, you can use the barn as a ceremony and reception space.

We absolutely LOVE Saltonstall. We worked at the barn before the renovation, and after. Sophie & Kyle did an incredible job with the updates and renovations. It truly is a special place. There's nowhere else quite like it!
