What can I say. The Fall River Country Club and Tammy hit it out of the park. I’m not a difficult person but I am a specific one. I don’t expect everyone to be like me, but the whole event and anyone associated with it came within 99% of my expectations. From the meetings, to being able to view it during other set ups, to her answering every question and making all requests and accommodations happen – her and the venue were just fantastic. If you want something all in one place without having to deal with so many different moving parts, then the FRCC and Tammy is the place for you. The venue had ample parking and the food was fantastic! Being organized is key. If you are organized the FRCC will 100% carry out your vision. The bridal sweet is huge, you can order restaurant service if you are going to be there a long time, she opens early if you need it that day … I’d go and look at it, if it checks your boxes, then make the rest of it happen. You will not be sorry. The views are just amazing, the spots for photography both inside and outside are beautiful. The bathrooms were clean and spacious and has a cute nook to put wedding baskets if you so choose. We had the wedding in Nov so I said please, in the common areas please feel free to leave your decor. Very tasteful and the staff, from cook, to bar, to wait staff - just phenomenal. Never sitting still. If you ask a question or needed something they came right back to you, not some half hour later. I can honestly say if planned properly your vision will be executed and your day will be a stress free one. They also had a smaller room upstairs that we reserved for the out of town guests / rehearsal dinner so they could drive to the location and get a lay of the land. We had a diff, more casual menu for that. It came out exactly how we planned.

We loved having our wedding at the Ballroom at Providence G! The space was very upscale and elegant. It looked fantastic in photos, and it felt great in person too. We also really enjoyed working with the staff at the venue. We worked hand-in-hand with several different people, and each person was organized, kind, and detail-oriented. And even though we talked with multiple people throughout the planning process, everything was very cohesive and all of our requests were honored (with no exceptions whatsoever). We also enjoyed having our cocktail hour on the Rooftop at the Providence G. The vibes up there were immaculate, and we also loved the appetizers and drinks.

Some ideas need time and space to materialize. Transforming an old rodeo horse farm into a creative compound for events and projects has proven to be a challenging example. Over time, thoughtful outbuildings and spaces are popping up throughout a fourteen-acre campus of oak forests and wild meadows. One hundred feet of wiggly barn welcomes experiences from intimate projects to large wedding celebrations with loved ones. Now, it’s a steady push towards sustainable, creative projects working in sync with the natural surroundings. Get out in the woods, get a little weird. Try to have a good time.

782Wrentham was the perfect setting for our belated wedding reception. We had time to decorate and add personal touches on the morning of the event.

For dinner, we all were seated under a large, well-lit tent. The vendors we hired (DJ/photo booth, dance floor, bar service, and catering) made for a unique event that wow-ed our family and friends. We’ll remember August 24th, 2024 forever.

I got married at Lake Pearl in July 2024, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! From start to finish, the entire staff was an absolute dream to work with. They truly held my hand through the whole process, making everything feel so seamless and stress-free. One of the best parts was that the venue included beautiful floral centerpieces and a delicious cake, which took so much coordination off my plate. Their preferred vendors and the staff are like a well-oiled machine, working together flawlessly. Lake Pearl is also the perfect backdrop for photos, with a beach, dock, gardens, and tree-lined forest areas that provide diverse landscapes for stunning photo opportunities. I got married in the new Belvedere building, which is a showstopper filled with great lighting and tons of windows! Getting ready on-site was a wonderful experience, with breakfast and lunch catered to the bridal suite, making for a perfect, relaxed start to the day. From the cocktail hour to the reception, everything went smoothly, and it truly was the best day of my life. A huge thank you to Jules and Janet for making everything perfect!

The Spring House was an absolutely spectacular location for our wedding. We were married on the back lawn since it was high season, and then moved to the patio for our reception. Both have unobstructed views of the ocean. Once the ceremony was over, servers were at the ready with our speciality drinks. The cocktail hour food was incredible. Highly recommend the raw bar option, the oysters are shucked to order. Seated dinner was even better. Our guests cannot stop raving about the wedding and the food especially. Tanya, who is the coordinator, is a total gem. She was so patient, answering every single question. I hired a day of coordinator, but Tanya took care of every detail. She was so kind and pivoted easily to accommodate me when I realized that some of our more difficult guests didn't make the correct menu choices. We have been coming to Block Island for many years and we knew we wanted to be married there. The Spring House made everything truly special. Our wedding was perfection. Multiple guests have called to tell us that they felt that it was one of the best weddings they had been to.

I’m not much of a review person, but your wedding is important so we need to give credit where credit is due. Glenpharmer knocked it out of the park for us.

My husband and I had our wedding here in September 2024 and the place was everything we dreamt of. Bridal suite is incredible, cocktail room was perfectly sized and the chandelier was absolutely stunning in the main room. Shy Ann was very attentive all day, got all my bridesmaids Starbucks and ran out the door when we were leaving to make sure I sprayed my veil with perfume before heading to the church. Highly recommend the cape club to anyone looking. You won’t regret it. (Photos by Michael and Laura Sparks Keegan Photography)

We had our wedding reception at the Villa this September and it was everything we dreamed of and more! Biggest thanks to Ellen Jones (our event producer) and all the employees at this venue. The Villa is absolutely gorgeous. The grounds are amazingly kept and beautiful! Our reception was in the tent and it provided the indoor and outdoor feel we were looking for! The food was absolutely amazing! Our guests absolutely loved all the passed hors d’oeuvres and meals. The Villa made communicating and planning so easy for us! Ellen was an absolute gem. She communicated extremely well from beginning to end and made the whole process very easy. Our wedding reception was somewhat unique (we didn’t do our ceremony at the Villa and we wanted our wedding ceremony video to be played during cocktail hour) but Ellen made sure it was the exact vision I was aiming for. She sent many helpful tips throughout the process. We are forever grateful for Ellen and I hope everyone books with her and the Villa for the most seamless wedding process possible!

August 16th I married the love of my life surrounded by our family and friends. I always wanted a backyard wedding but as we started planning for it it became overwhelming. When my mom suggested we tour The Sagamore, I was more than willing. From the moment we stepped on the property it was all my husband and I hopped for without the responsibility. We immediately put our deposit down and started working with Beth. The venue is drop dead gorgeous, the food was incredible, and Beth was amazing. Leading up the day Beth was more than helpful and offered plenty of advice to us. The day arrived and no issues occurred, or at least I never knew about them. We missed the food tasting but sent family in our place as I was in the hospital giving birth to our son. When our wedding day came we were just as excited as the guests to try the dishes we had picked. We got more compliments on the food than I thought was possible. The staff were phenomenal and made the night as seamless as possible. I would recommend The Sagamore in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a venue. I had my dream wedding thanks to Beth and the whole Sagamore crew.

Our wedding at the Barn was picture perfect. We worked with Kate at some of our originals tours and then had Jocelyn and Lauren for the detail planning and big day. They were wonderful through the whole process and so prompt to respond and have great attention to detail. They constantly made sure we had everything we needed all day and that we got to try all our wonderful food. Our guests raved about the venue space and the food. We have 79 guests which was a great amount of a nice intimate celebration. Our only regret is how quick the day went by. Highly recommend this venue and their fabulous team.
