Krystel, Tofique, & Andrew made my dream wedding!
The Red Lion Inn in Cohasset is truly a dream wedding venue. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the historic charm and breathtaking beauty of the property. The cozy warmth of the barn made for an unforgettable ceremony and reception—it felt intimate yet grand, with its rustic elegance setting the perfect tone for our celebration. One of the standout features is that it’s not just a venue, it’s a real, historic inn. We loved knowing we could return to this special place for anniversaries and relive our wedding day memories—a truly unique aspect we didn’t find at any other venue. The team at the Red Lion Inn was nothing short of incredible. They made us feel so cared for throughout the entire process. A highlight for me was when they quietly snuck me a plate of appetizers during cocktail hour so my husband and I could enjoy some delicious bites while taking portraits. It’s those thoughtful touches that made the day even more magical. I can’t recommend the Red Lion Inn enough—it’s a stunning, one-of-a-kind venue with a team that goes above and beyond to make your wedding day unforgettable.

My husband and I had our wedding at the Red Lion Inn in October and it was absolutely perfect. The staff was extremely attentive and took great care of us, the rooms were cozy, the food was delicious, and the venue itself is beautiful. Tofique (events Operations) and Krystel (wedding planner) were integral parts of ensuring our day ran smoothly. Our day could not have been better and we are grateful for the Red Lion Inn team for helping to make it so!

From start to finish, the staff at the Red Lion Inn - particularly our event coordinator, Sam - was attentive, thoughtful, responsive, and kind. They were there for us throughout the planning process, answering our emails promptly and offering assistance at every turn. The day-of went very smoothly and we are so thankful for them! The venue is STUNNING and the Inn offered a lot of different options to choose from along the way (e.g., chair style, napkin settings, etc.). If you choose the Red Lion Inn, you will be so thrilled - I know we were! 3
