The Andover Inn 

5.0

Andover, MA
  • Up to 50 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,000

Andover Inn is a New England inn located about 25 miles north of Boston, MA on the 500-acre campus of Phillips Academy, one of the oldest private secondary boarding schools in the United States. Built in 1930 and fully renovated in 2010, Andover Inn offers 30 modern guest rooms, three private function rooms, and an elegant 80-seat dining room. Andover Inn offers its guests a unique experience in an intimate setting and is the ideal location for a weekend getaway, family celebration, or corporate retreat. We are located within walking distance to the center of Andover, Massachusetts, where the town gives its visitors a “metro-suburban” experience featuring trendy shopping, foodie experiences, and local New England charm. With easy access to major highways I-495 and I-93, the Inn is just 30 minutes from Boston.

I was a floral designer providing centerpieces for a baby shower held there last fall (2023), in the Phillips Room. My experience as a vendor there was great. The venue was immaculate and modern inside, with the classic New England charm and vibe. The staff could not have been more helpful. They helped me with load-in, and the setup people were friendly and efficient. The coordinator Linda was also friendly, professional and on top of all the many details for the event (food, drinks, balloons, florals, favors, etc.). The room was light and airy, with lots of windows and light. The neutral background would work for almost any color palette. It is a beautiful venue in a classic New England setting, and I highly recommend it!

This historic space has been outfitted with every modern amenity to be the ideal space to host the perfect wedding. We provide a non-traditional venue so that our clients have a blank slate to start from and can make the space their own.

If you can dream it, it can be done at Olio. Located just North of Boston, Massachusetts, in the heart of New England, the venue is conveniently located and easily accessible to Logan Airport and nearby accommodations and attractions.

We got married here on Sunday 9/29 and I really can’t say enough good things about this space. The team was great to work with and all of our guests were so impressed by the space because it’s not like anything else really. I LOVED having the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one room because we wasted almost no part of our day shepherding folks from place to place. The caterer recommended to us, Premier, was also amazing and they were on it and had many great suggestions to make the day as great as possible as they work in the space often. If you want outdoor photos before we found two great little parks to work with and ended up doing our first look and family portraits at “Leather City Commons” which is a three minute drive down the street. Then the two of us walked the ten minute walk back to Olio from there and got some great photos by Peabody City Hall and there are truly a plethora of great brick walls to choose from for a good backdrop! For getting ready we stayed at the Bell Inn and Tavern and their team was also amazing! I got ready in a Junior King Suite my parents were staying in and their team flipped the bridal suite early (as they had a wedding party the night before) so we could do bridal portraits with the moms and my sister. My husband and I stayed there that night and the room is gorgeous. My only regret with that space is we didn’t stay longer because it was so beautiful!!! (And the room service food we ordered from the tavern for lunch was great!) Shout out specifically to Kelsey and Heather for all of their help. Logistically I was a little nervous about it being in Peabody as we live closer to Boston but parking is free on Sundays and folks could Uber easily to the venue. Many out of town folks loved being able to stay near Salem to make it a great weekend trip. Last, I cannot recommend enough having a day of coordinator. I know Sarah who runs Olio has her own planning company and would be amazing to work with. I was lucky enough to have an amazing coworker and friend who helped me out and I literally gave him a binder with everything and I did not stress about anything for the entire day. I did not see my cell phone or get asked a single logistics question all day and it was GLORIOUS. I think that covers everything and will absolutely update if I think of anything else that can help out future brides considering this great space!!!

The Stevens Estate At Osgood Hill 

5.0

North Andover, MA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

The Stevens Estate is a beautiful setting for your wedding reception and ceremony. With multiple unique spaces to use for your special day, create an experience that is truly “you two, and nobody else”. Choose the magnificent parlors, the manicured lawn or the airy Garden Room to celebrate your exchange of vows. Enjoy 153 acres of stunning property for your photographs. Allow guests to mingle with a combination indoor and outdoor cocktail hour on the terrace, lawn or inside the mansion.

Everything about this venue was incredible, from the picturesque mansion to the wonderful, supportive staff. From our very first interactions with the sales team (Helen) to our day-of staff (Casey & May), everyone was extremely professional, helpful, and a pleasure to be around. They were gracious in answering our questions, calming our nerves, and being an assuring force throughout it all. We are so grateful for the love and care they put into our special day to keep everything organized and on track. Fireside's food was phenomenal and all the late night snacks and desserts were a huge hit with our guests. There was also a nice flow throughout the night and our guests commented that they were grateful that they knew where to go at every point in the wedding. We had rain on our wedding day but we are pleased to say that the ceremony under the tent was still magical, and actually created a nice moody atmosphere and our photos came out amazing. The heaters kept the tent dry and comfortable all night. We hope someone else we know gets married at the Stevens Estate soon so that we can attend!

We were thrilled with Willowdale Estate as our wedding venue! Julia and her team were a joy to work with - communication was easy, efficient, warm and welcoming every step of the way. The estate itself is gorgeous, with colorful, elegant spaces full of character that made the perfect backdrop for our big day. They brought our vision to life and then some, handling every detail so that we didn't have to worry about a thing. The food was delicious and plentiful - guests are still raving about it! Not only was it our favorite day ever, but multiple people told us it was the most fun wedding they've attended. We highly recommend Willowdale for couples looking for a seamless, stress-free event in a beautiful, one-of-a-kind venue with top-notch service.
