Choosing The Cut in Gloucester was one of our best decisions. The rocky shoreline gave us stunning photos, and the venue was perfect for our reception. The staff were professional, honest, inviting, and accommodating throughout the planning process and on our wedding day. The spacious bridal suite with pro makeup mirrors made getting ready effortless, and the staff went above and beyond by bringing extra stools and a steamer without us even asking. The room layout, huge dance floor, and elevated stage created amazing flow and energy for our lively and unforgettable wedding celebration. The Cut is beautifully decorated and well-organized, offering tremendous value for the quality of their work and service.

I attended a wedding vow renewal at/in Black Craft Salem's haunt. We all walked down the "aisle" which was the actual haunt. We followed the "bride and groom" throughout the haunt to the very end where the actual ceremony took place. There were beautiful glowing candles everywhere and the lighting was perfect. The BCS crew was very nice and made us all feel welcomed. I have NEVER been to a ceremony as thrilling, fun and terrifyingly beautiful as this one. I could not get over the atmosphere it was McCabe and, exciting and eerie at the same time.... I felt like I was on a movie set. . EVERYONE who loves Halloween, horror and haunts in general needs to have every type of ceremony in this venue - NOT just weddings and vow renewals. BORAH! was the officiant and was the funniest thing ever, she roasted the couple and made us laugh so hard we neven shed a few tears. Thank you BCS for hosting such a remarkable space for this ceremony. I will be booking my wedding at Black Craft if I ever decide to tie the knot.

Olio was the first (and only) wedding venue we toured. Immediately following our tour, my partner and I cancelled all tours/meetings with other venues - we knew that if we were going to have a wedding, it had to be at Olio. Sarah and the Olio team ALWAYS met us with genuine enthusiasm and kindness. All communications with Olio were authentic, seamless, and enjoyable. Since our family lives all over the country, Sarah and the team went out of their way to accommodate and ensure each of our family members could tour Olio when they were in town. Our wedding exceeded any and all expectations. It is impossible to articulate the beauty of this venue. All of our friends and family continue to rave about the space, story behind Olio, and the wonderful venue team. Olio is incredible without any decorations, but can be a blank canvas for people with big ideas. There is East End Peabody Veterans Memorial Park down the road that is perfect for photos, and a Granite Coast Brewing Company a few doors down for an afterparty. Olio and their team will make you feel supported, and with their authenticity comes a critical level of mutual trust. Thank you Olio for being the best venue, and team, we could have ever asked for!

We had a wonderful experience at Taffeta Music Hall! We rented them for our reception venue, and they couldn't have been better! From the absolute vibe of the concert hall, to the amazing lighting and disco ball (included with the rental fee), to the care from their staff, we couldn't have been happier! They included their concert sound system in the rental fee, which made a DJ set up cost effective. We could use any licensed caterer (so we used our fav spot in Nashua - Soel Sistas). Their bartenders took great care of us, and they even mixed up some sweet tea for my Southern family in for the wedding! :) Chelsea answered my millions of questions leading up to the event so thoroughly! Overall, love Taffeta, Chelsea, and her team!

My husband and I had one goal in mind when we were planning our recent wedding: we wanted everyone to have fun! There is not a better place we could have imagined for our wedding than Bayside Bowl!! From our first FaceTime to the sweet note we just got in the mail two weeks after our wedding, every step of the process was smooth and we couldn't have been in better hands than with Micaela and the entire team at Bayside. With a wedding of a little over 100 people, we got pretty much unanimous feedback that our wedding at Bayside was one of the most fun that anyone had ever attended. In truth, this is largely due to the care and ease with which Micaela managed everything! We had an absolutely stress-free wedding and felt so well-taken care of throughout the event and in the run up. You'll enjoy the tasting event where you get to sample offerings from Bayside's awesome menu before your wedding, and the food was also a hit with the guests! We couldn't have wished for a more perfect wedding weekend than the one we had at Bayside.

On September 21st, 2024 my husband and I got married at Maine Studio Works with 143 guests. We got ready in “studio A” then had our ceremony, dinner and reception in ”studio B”. I don’t even know where to start with how amazing this venue was for our wedding. Great location with a blank canvas that allows you to make the space your own! The best part about using this venue for our wedding was working with the owners, Nora and Zack. Weddings can be stressful and overwhelming but Nora and Zack made it such a fun and positive experience. They went above and beyond as venue owners. They are both easy going, attentive, professional, accommodating and most of all creative when it came to helping us execute our vision in their space. Our favorite things about the space included; having studio A to get ready in, walking out of the big sliding door towards the aisle, having the garage door which opened up to outdoor space, and the tall ceilings which helped the room feel big and not too loud. Our guests were in love with the venue. To this day our guests comment on how cool the space was to get married in and how we were so lucky to work with such a great team. Nora and Zack are two of the most down to earth people I’ve ever met and highly recommend using their space for your next event!

Arts at the Armory delivered on the wedding of our dreams! We knew when we started planning that we didn't want a cookie cutter wedding. We wanted a venue that would celebrate our vision and work with us to bring a little magic to life. And WOW did they ever! We felt great supporting the local art community in Somerville and truly felt that sense of community the whole way through. The Armory team championed our ideas and supported all of our unique touches. When there were limitations, they offered creative solutions that made our day so special. For example, Flora, the bar manager, helped us work within their bar license limitations to create elegant and elevated Prosecco cocktails that our guests loved. The space itself is really remarkable even as a blank canvas. Once their team stepped in with the lighting and sound design, my jaw dropped. Stepping into the space once it was transformed into our dream venue brought me to tears. I know our wedding was completely unique because of all the special attention the entire Armory staff offered us. Special shout out to Kim, their production manager, who really helped me see through each little detail to bring it all to life. If you are looking for a venue who will let you be who you are AND offer meaningful expertise along the way, stop looking now and just book the Armory.
