We just had our wedding there this past summer, and it was more amazing than we could have ever imagined. Not only is the venue beautiful, this is such a wonderful family to work with. They are truly good people who care about those staying with them/having an event there. The animals were gorgeous, and waking up to the birds was perfect. We loved the Treehouse!!! We will be staying again for our one year anniversary!

The venue at Pachaug Cottages is an absolute dream! They hosted us for our ceremony and reception of about 75 people on June 25 2022. With the ceremony space right on the lake, we were even able to arrive and depart by boat! The whole day went flawlessly and we definitely recommend having your wedding here! Some of our family even booked the venue for their own wedding this past summer and it was so fun to revisit the location and see all the new additions. The brand new pavilion is STUNNING. 10/10 would recommend 3

Riverbend

5.0

Higganum, CT
  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $25,000

Welcome to Connecticut Wedding Group's latest jewel, Riverbend—a masterpiece poised to claim its title as the state’s foremost wedding destination. Nestled in the heart of Higganum, this venue seamlessly blends the rich tapestry of the town's industrial history with a contemporary touch, resulting in an unmatched fusion of industrial charm and modern elegance. As you step through the entrance, prepare to be enchanted by a stunning architectural marvel nestled within a lovingly restored industrial gem. Towering, exposed-beam ceilings create an expansive atmosphere, and the weathered brickwork shares the timeless tales of a bygone era. Bathed in sunlight pouring through expansive windows, every corner is adorned with a soft, natural glow, ensuring that your celebration emanates with an undeniable warmth and inherent beauty. At Riverbend, history meets modernity to create the perfect backdrop for your special day.

Full disclaimer, my husband and I both work for Connecticut Wedding Group. So, you may think this post is a tad biased, but we'd have to disagree... You see at the start of our engagement we did entertain some "obligatory" research, but, this was incredibly short lived. We came to the quick conclusion, before we even got to scheduling tours, that there's simply no way we could ever put our biggest investment in anyones hands but our own planning & culinary teams. Every weekend we see our couples share their big day with all of the most important people in their lives. A moment you only get once, and our team pours their whole hearts into making every minute pure perfection. My husband was (hands down) here for the food, while I was here so I didn't need to plan my own wedding and worry about all the logistics that my brain normally can't avoid. Our guests continue to rave. It was the best day ever, and we are so deeply grateful to our team for doing what they do. Our only regret is we can't do it again and again and again.

Okay Island

5.0

Sterling, CT
  • Up to 175 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

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. [okayisland,com for more info.]

I can't say enough about how special and wonderful this place is. Our experience here was even better than anticipated. The property is beautiful and has plenty of space, and the barn is so unique and lovely. This is not a cookie cutter farm wedding venue, every detail has been carefully considered and taken care of. Adam, the owner, went out of his way to help everything go smoothly and our friends won't stop talking about how amazing it was. It was so special.

If you want a beach wedding and to work with the most incredible venue look no further. The second we walked into Galilee Beach Club we knew it place was “the one”. The venue is stunning inside and out. We got married on the beach overlooking the water. Cocktail hour was outside and they setup the cutest tiki bar. Emily, the Clubs coordinator was absolutely amazing. Some venues have coordinators where they just look out for the venue itself, Emily made sure my husband and I were taken care of every step of the way. She was incredibly communicative through out our wedding process and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we wanted. AND I MEAN EVERYTHING, from the smallest details like what we want our signature drink to be to making sure there was plenty of food and drinks for us in the bridal suite. The food was so incredible, plentiful, and came out hot! The wait and bar staff was so attentive and professional. I said from the beginning, I wanted a one stop shop venue, I didn’t want to have to deal with the small details, I just wanted to walk in and have everything there for us. Galilee Beach Club exceed our expectations. They did LITERALLY EVERYTHING from bathroom baskets to seating charts and coordinating with our other vendors. I literally have nothing but positive feedback. Book your wedding here, you won’t regret it. MANY thanks to the entire staff and Emily at the beach club. It was the best day ever.

The Riverview was great to work with. Leading up to the wedding (06/04/2023) we had no problems contacting our coordinator Adam and he was able to answer any questions we had. The rehearsal ended up on a Thursday night for our Sunday wedding, but we were able to drop off most of the decor items and go over the ceremony plans. We had DIYed centerpieces and ceremony decor and they were able to put it all out for us day of (pre-assembled) and helped put everything in our car the night of the wedding. We also had 2 bridal assistants that checked on us throughout the night, making sure we had food and drinks and helping bustle my dress and get tissues when I cried happy tears. Overall, the venue was beautiful, and we were glad we could have the ceremony outside but protect our guests from too much sun, or any possible rain. Other venues having poor back up plans for rain is a big reason we did not select some of the others we looked at. The Riverview helped to make sure things when exactly how we wanted through the night, and we were happy with how everything turned out.
