Granite Rose could not have made our wedding day easier. Carly was an absolute star during our rehearsal the night before and helping the day of - everything was perfect. From the food to the bar service, and the amount of people telling me just how beautiful the venue is. Their package sold us from day one and I can’t imagine a better venue to work with - everything was so easy and they were always so quick to reply when I had questions. If you’re looking for a gorgeous venue with a fraction of the planning stress, Granite Rose is the one!

Welcome to The Barn at Union Lake Orchard. This 3rd generation farm has been offering its farm fresh produce for 40 years. Our hand crafted, 3 story, timber frame event Barn provides you the beauty and timelessness of farmland in Barrington, NH. Framed by colorful flowers and rows of lush peach trees this event space will be one to remember. Our wedding season is late May through mid October.

Awarded Best of Zola
My daughter was married in September and it was a wonderful event. The barn is beautifully designed, it looks great even before you add any decorations. The Caverly’s are responsive, helpful and easy to work with. The location, up on the hill, surrounded by peach trees is a photographer’s dream. We had our ceremony and cocktail hour outside, reception in the barn, but I had peace of mind knowing the barn was large enough to accommodate the whole event if it rained. I highly recommend this venue.

Saltonstall Farm

5.0

Stratham, NH
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $11,000

Historic, breath taking 4 story barn The farm and barn are about 200 years old, and the barn was originally used for cows. Over the years, it has been very well taken care of, so the original beams are still there, in sizes and shapes that you just can't get anymore! The owners are the third generation in their family to take care of the property and are very grateful to be the current stewards. The barn renovations completed in 2020 and it is all ADA compliant and up to code. In the barn, there is a full sound system, 14 chandeliers, a beautiful live edge bar top, two high end composting toilets (the flushing kind!), massive barn blue doors on each end, and a grand entrance staircase. The barn holds up to 200 people and is big enough that you don't have to rent a tent even with tables and chairs, a major benefit and money saver! In the event of rain, you can use the barn as a ceremony and reception space.

Sophie and Kyle are down to earth, caring, and a joy to work with. We planned a wedding for June of 2020 and had to postpone the reception by a year, which was no problem at all. The farm is a truly idyllic setting, and the 5-story newly renovated barn is astoundingly beautiful and fully equipped for multimedia experiences. Everyone who attended our party had a well-deserved blast after sheltering in place for so long. Thank you, Saltonstalls! Best wishes for your new adventures. <3

Long Hill

4.8

Beverly, MA
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $6,000

Elegant plantings and cultivated grounds fill this public garden with vibrancy that's more than a century in the making. Long Hill is a property of The Trustees of Reservations, a Massachusetts non-profit corporation. From 1916 to 1979, Long Hill was the summer home of noted author and editor of The Atlantic Monthly, Ellery Sedgwick. He summered here with his first wife, Mabel Cabot Sedgwick, an accomplished horticulturist, gardener, and author of The Garden Month by Month, and his second wife, Marjorie Russell Sedgwick, a rare plants specialist—both of whom created a delightful, enchanting landscape, surrounded by more than 100 acres of woodland. Today, visitors delight in the beauty of Long Hill’s structured and naturalistic gardens as well as a network of woodland trails. A diverse collection of trees, shrubs, and distinctive perennial plants provide color during the growing season, peaking in May and June and providing structure and beauty throughout the year.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had our wedding at Long Hill July 2023 and it was everything we could have imagined. The venue was absolutely beautiful, and we received countless compliments from guests, asking “how did you find this place?!” The gardens were beautiful for our ceremony/cocktail hour and the tent was gorgeous for the reception. Helena, the coordinator for Long Hill, was super communicative and made sure everything ran smoothly day of. The entire venue was gorgeous, steeped in history and made the perfect backdrop for our photos. We would highly recommend this venue!

The Greenhouse at Highland Farm

5.0

Scarborough, ME
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Limited services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $8,000

Maine's only greenhouse event venue exclusively designed for wedding receptions and ceremonies. 2021 marks 72 years of Highland Farm’s history in Scarborough, Maine. From the beginning, the property has been operating as a greenhouse. In fact, in the 1800’s, Highland Farm was the largest supplier of cut flowers in the Northeast. Highland Farm is a family owned and operated business, and the undeniable sense of family and welcome energy is palpable the moment you step on the grounds. The saying is true here: “you come as strangers and leave as family.” The Greenhouse and The Farm has been run by 3rd generation owners, Joe and Christine since 2008, but Joe and Christine’s involvement in the farm runs far deeper than ownership. In 2009, the couple was married in one of the working greenhouses

Awarded Best of Zola
Both Christine and Jessica made the days leading up to my big day seamless. They were extremely responsive to my many questions and couldn’t have been more kind and professional. The value of the venue is incredible, from the beautiful setting and well kept grounds of the property, to the bridal suite and the florals available for use. I was incredibly happy with our choice to use The Greenhouse as our venue!

Awarded Best of Zola
It's not often that I have had such a wonderful and productive working relationship with another vendor. Knowledgeable, warm, inviting, passionate about organic farming, meticulous are all thoughts that come to mind when I think about Goronson Farm. Maureen and her crew produce the finest organic flowers, fruits and veggies. Then there are the ducks and chickens...simultaneously companions and navigators on the farm...also blessing us with their (delicious) eggs. You instantly feel the world melt away the moment you turn down the drive towards the farm. Almost instantaneously you're transported a million miles to some sort of epic oasis far from it all. Simply put: it's just a stunningly beautiful place. I can't (and won't) stop recommending Goronson Farm. Five stars are not emphatic enough.
