Founded in 1814, The West Boylston Company was a large textile manufacturer in West Boylston, MA. At the turn of the century the company faced a crisis: the site of their mill would be flooded to form the Wachusett Reservoir. Instead of abandoning the mill, the company dismantled it brick by brick and shipped it to its new home in Easthampton, where it was rebuilt on the banks of the Lower Mill Pond. Now, a century later, The Boylston Rooms retains the integrity of the 1814 original mill in every brick and beam. Our rental includes planners and decor at no added cost. Whatever your style, with over 140 pieces of decor, if you can picture it in the space, we can make it happen.

The Boylston Rooms was by far the best choice of wedding venue for us. Not only are the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception spaces gorgeous, but the entire team at The Boylston Rooms is extremely kind, caring, and will do anything to make sure you have the most special day. The venue also has a huge amount of decorations on hand, so there's plenty to pick from for decorating each space! Erin, Myles, and Jacquetta were amazing during our entire planning process (especially with all of the frantic emails I sent them!) and they were especially incredible the weekend of our wedding. I couldn't have asked for a better team to make sure our day went smoothly. They truly cared about making sure everything was exactly what we wanted. We had the perfect wedding and a huge part of that was The Boylston Rooms team! I am so glad we chose this venue and would recommend it to absolutely anyone looking for a gorgeous wedding venue that is managed by an amazing team!

My partner and I recently enjoyed the greatest day of our lives at Harrington Farm. Our wedding day in late Sept was everything we could have asked for and more. From our expert wedding coordinator to the amazing staff, my partner and I are so grateful to have enjoyed a wedding day that was a perfect blend of our personalities, and a venue that combines the refined beauty of a traditional-style wedding with the fairytale magic of a forest mountain hall. No matter who you are, planning a wedding is going to be stressful with many logistical details to cover, and our amazing wedding coordinator, Lauryn Mattson, was 100% on top of every detail and deadline from day 1 of planning. She created a wonderful balance of helping us curate the look, feel, and flow of our wedding day with all the details we wanted to hand-select, while also taking care of all the little things that my partner and I were less invested in, so that she and I could truly enjoy the season and the day without being overwhelmed by choices. Lauryn was kind, organized, helpful, and patient with us through the whole process, and she first and foremost helped make this day what it was --- many, many thanks to her. The staff at Harrington Farm were attentive, kind, and made us feel relaxed and taken care of throughout the reception. Kathleen and Cindy took care of all the little things, and made sure that we as the bride and groom had plenty of food and drink throughout the evening. The food was delicious, the bartenders made some of the best drinks I've ever had (which is not what I usually encounter at weddings), the servers were kind and professional, with many other details that blew us away --- the well-tended outdoor fireplace, the delicious coffee bar, and just the all-around beauty of the entire space. Our vendors and the venue clicked together perfectly. The week leading up to our wedding, we were so stressed about the weather (like many couples I'm sure) as we wanted to have the ceremony outside. And on the day of, we had a tropical storm downpour on us. And the day was still perfect! Harrington Farm was very flexible and set up a beautiful ceremony in their indoor space, and it felt magical to tie the knot in front of the stone fireplace filled with candles while the storm was raging outside. And despite that, the cocktail hour in the covered tent outside was cozy and warm! We couldn't have had a more romantic or magical wedding day. It's no small feat to plan a wedding for anyone involved, and the fact that it came together so perfectly meant so much to us, and truly allowed my partner and I to just focus on each other when it came time to say I do. For all the meticulous work behind the scenes from the event staff, the servers, the people who maintain the grounds, and the extreme attention to detail from our wedding coordinator, you have our very deep gratitude. It's a memory we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

Woodwinds

4.3

Branford, CT
  • Up to 600 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $110

WoodWinds is one of the most sought after Connecticut wedding venues for wedding receptions, banquets, corporate events or any special occasion, in the Tri-State area. A wedding in our impressive European Country Manor will reflect your personal vision. Imagine a magical experience, enhanced by a unique ceremony and reception on the beautiful grounds of WoodWinds. Envision standing on a grand staircase under the twinkle of Austrian Crystal chandeliers, taking pictures in a magnificent garden and dancing the night away on a marble dance floor.

The Woodwinds made my dreams a reality… When we first walked into the woodwinds and met Vanessa, we were blown away by the staircase. I immediately could picture my fiancé and I taking pictures there with our wedding party. As we walked through vanessa painted such a beautiful picture of what our day would look like and how easy everything would be. We were told “all you need is a DJ, Photographer, and JP and we take care of the rest” they were not kidding. I mean we actually had someone the night of our wedding basically thinking for us. He was like a tour guide taking us step by step through our night. The entire process from booking to partying was absolutely seamless. Vanessa toured us, answered all of our questions, even my moms questions while we face timed her during our tour, and helped us with the contract so we could lock in our date for this beautiful venue. Once we had our date, Michael took over and I must say… he rocks!!!!!! He is like a floorplan guru. We explained where we wanted everything and as we spoke he was rearranging everything live. We wanted to do a memorial table, photo booth, welcome table, favor table and he just had space for everything. FYI they have this thing called the MTA…it is a lifesaver. As we got our RSVP’s in, it was so overwhelming, but Michael was to the rescue and when I called him he sent it right over and explained it and having a space to organize our RSVP’s and what meals each guest were getting was so helpful. The best part is when I started getting those calls…”oh don’t sit me with Joann”…it was so easy to drag them to another table. All the woodwinds staff was so knowledgeable about the venue and the food. I didn’t know what to write on our invitation cards for meal selections so I called them up and Kate answered and knew what every food dish was and explained it in such detail I was starving after the conversation. The planning team was impeccable…the night of our wedding was just as smooth and its almost like all the employees were sitting in our meetings and phone calls because they all knew exactly what we wanted, where all the decorations went, even down to what my favorite drink was so I never had to ask. I’m so happy we got married at woodwinds and they made our dreams come true. We could not have asked for a better experience and we may have to start doing anniversary parties just to go back!!!

We had an amazing wedding reception at the Delaney House. I walked into wedding planning clueless and Nicole helped guide us through the whole process, with selecting an amazing photographer and DJ, to taste testing entrees and wedding cakes, everything went smoothly and as planned! The staff were very attentive during the reception and everyone commented what a beautiful wedding it was, even on a rainy day! We had our after party at the Mick and stayed at the D Hotel.

6/4/21 was the best day of our lives and Union Station, Neil, and his amazing staff, all Played a huge role in that. My husband and I started the planning process back in 2019, our original plan was 10/2020 150 person wedding. Due to Covid we pivoted to a 20 person micro-wedding. I was blown away by how Union Station helped me along the way. Neil’s professionalism and communication was perfect. He made the absolute best out of covid. We chose Union Station for its charm, and location, I wanted a beautiful indoor setting, (the option for outdoor photos in the neighborhood are endless). But looking back I feel very fortunate that the venue had such a great team. The food was delicious and the presentation looked fantastic. My guests loved our bartender and the great drinks she made. We picked a dj that played acoustic guitar and the acoustics of the venue are perfect! Another bonus you can walk to the venue from the hotel and the town is so cute and fun our guests had lot of fun in the local bars and restaurants!!
