Wellfleet Preservation Hall was the perfect venue for our 100 person wedding. From the beginning, the staff was incredibly helpful and responsive, making the planning process smooth. Over the course of the year, there were multiple event coordinators as people changed over. Heather, who we ended up working with, picked up our event and the details professionally and was very timely in communications and very attentive during the rehearsal and the wedding day. The hall provided liquor and bartending services at a very reasonable rate, and also had tables, linens, and high tops available, which helped us save on rental costs. They also have audio/visual setups which was a help to our DJ. If you don't want to plan each vendor individually, I'd recommend a wedding planner. There are no packages for this venue, so we brought in catering, rentals, floral, dj, etc. The venue garden is absolutely beautiful, with a functional and artsy space indoors that allowed our 100 guests to move seamlessly between the indoor hall areas and the lovely garden and patio area. (It would have been cramped with any more than 100 if eating inside). It does have an elevator as well and is easy for older guests to get around. We did our ceremony outside in the garden, cocktail hour on the patio, dinner upstairs, and dancing downstairs with the bar on the patio. I'd highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful, functional, and unique space for their special day. Our guests keep telling us how wonderful it was.
