  • The Best Wedding Venue!

    Avenir was the perfect venue for our wedding. From start to finish, the team was quick to respond to all of our questions and help us plan our special day. Kacey, the event coordinator, was incredibly helpful and made sure every detail we wanted was executed to perfection. The venue itself was absolutely stunning - the high ceilings, beautiful decor, and amazing food all contributed to creating an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. I highly recommend having your wedding at Avenir, as the staff are extremely helpful and attentive, and the overall quality is truly amazing.

    From the moment we booked this place we knew we made the right choice. Kacey, our Event Producer, was PHENOMENAL from start to finish. Everything about the staff and the space was incredible. They handled everything day-of, seamlessly coordinating with our vendors, and organizing decor, timeline and tasks. The food was also fantastic, as were the desserts! Our attendants that day were super helpful and all of our guests loved the venue and the way everything flowed so effortlessly that day, truly perfect. The picture of elegance and timelessness. Highly recommend Avenir and their whole team!!

    Avenir was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we started planning, their communication was organized, professional, and incredibly responsive. The venue itself is chic, stylish, and truly luxurious - the perfect backdrop for our special day. Sydney, our event producer, made the entire process so easy and took a lot of the stress off of us. Our day of attendant Kaitlyn was also fantastic, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout the night. Avenir went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.

    We recently got married at Avenir, the Walpole location of the Saphire Event Group, and it was nothing short of a fairy tale. They were the 1st location we toured and it was everything I had always pictured in a wedding venue. Stunning, elegant, modern, Avenir has it all, including the most stunning and massive marble white dancefloor that we spent hours upon hours dancing the night away on. From our first tour to the day after our wedding, they were accommodating to every single request, organized and never missing a beat, and an overall pleasure to work with. To make it helpful I broke down some of the highlights that were the extra cherries on top to us: Staff: our first interaction with Avenir was through Emily, who is on their sales team. She was the sweetest, running through every detail, pricing, and question with us on our first visit, and had no problem accommodating multiple visits with us so that both sets of our parents could see the venue prior to making a decision. We never felt like we were being pushed or sold, and no request or question seemed outlandish; she was such a joy. When we booked with them and got to meet our event coordinator/ producer Sydney, it made me feel so secure in our decision. We sat down and she went through every single detail, wrote it down in front of us, gave us a copy, and was really great at bouncing ideas off of, giving suggestions, and helping guide us, without ever making us feel rushed. There was nothing we wanted that they couldn't make happen, and it was all done with a smile on their faces. Day of, we had rain and bad weather, and she moved things around and adjusted timelines that still got us exactly what we wanted and made sure we had enough time and locations for photos, and dinner, which meant so much to us. We had a guest lose their coat that night and they went above and beyond to make sure that even a week later, that guest was taken care of, while also not putting the work on us as the bride and groom. The entire night they were always attentive and so helpful to all of our guests and us. They overall are some of the most professional and kind event staff I have encountered. Day of management: They have an amazing system of having a coordinator for front of the house, back of the house, and someone that stays with the bride and groom all night so you're never looking for them, or honestly really handling anything. They do a good job of having a meeting two weeks before where you can choose all of your "just in case" people, so your only responsibility is to have the best night ever. It allowed us as the couple but also our parents and special guests to be in the moment and having the most fun. Food: I have been to too many weddings in my life, with many of the same guests having attended mine, and everyone was raving about the food. Dinner was delicious, prompt (we had an accelerated timeline to open the dancefloor that they handled with ease) and hot. No one walked away with an unhappy or an empty stomach (and we can be total food snobs so that's saying something.) They also had a great selection of entrees to offer that made it easy to accommodate any variation of guests and their dietary preferences, all of which you get to taste ahead of time at one of their tastings. Overall, it really was a perfect night and we have the staff at Avenir to thank for that. We can't thank you enough for helping us throw the wedding of our dreams. If you're on the fence, just pick Avenir!
