Smolak Farms

North Andover, MA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor

Smolak Farms is steeped in history. At the age of two, owner Michael Smolak bore witness to his Aunt Willie’s wedding on the farm. Little did he know then, back in 1954, that that wedding would be the start of a long and beautiful tradition of using Smolak Farms as a cherished wedding venue. The beautiful rolling hills of orchards and farmland span 125 acres, and provide the perfect backdrop for this very special bonding of two people. Being connected to nature and all the beauty it holds is an incredible way to start a union not just of two people, but of two families, and two lives.

We just had our wedding at Smolak Farms and could not have had a better experience start to finish. Elaine was a godsend throughout the entire process. Elaine has been available and accommodating since day one. Throughout the entire process, she constantly checked in with us to ask us if we need anything or had any questions. She was readily available to answer any and all questions and offered suggestions and feedback throughout, that was greatly welcomed by us. As we got closer to our wedding date, Elaine helped us feel relaxed and organized. The day of the rehearsal, Elaine and her team were ready for our rowdy bridal party, and kept us organized and on track for a quick rehearsal. Elaine and her team were extremely detail oriented and had everything organized and set up the day of - they not only received and set up our charcuterie, board delivery and pastry delivery, but the entire venue was decorated beautifully beyond our initial vision. We got so many compliments that we owe to Elaine and her team on the location, ceremony, and reception. Elaine and her team went above and beyond all of our expectations for our wedding day and truly brought our wedding vision to life, and then some. We had been told to expect things to not go according to plan, we did not experience that at all. Everything went more than perfect that day. We couldn’t be more grateful for them and recommend Smolak Farms more highly!!! Thank you Elaine and team!!!!

The Red Lion Inn is first class. We booked our wedding about 8 months out for just shy of 200 people. We were immediately assigned Krystel to work with who managed everything!! After I sourced our vendors, Krystel took on communication with them of when they were arriving, what they needed, etc. Krsytel was there to answer any questions we have and make our day special to us. We upgraded the tables as I did not want linens on the tables and Krystel worked to ensure the flow the room remained amazing. We had a 9 piece band that was perfectly situated and taken care of. The day of Tufick was THE MAN. He kept everything moving smoothly, we couldn’t have been worried or concerned about a thing. The food was incredible, the after party was a blast and we have memories for a life time

Not your ordinary venue! Exclusive private venue with lawn, patio, pool, fire pits & wooden venue all yours to enjoy. We offer catering options to fit every budget. Onsite accommodations for bridal party and honeymoon suite. We offer you choices not restrictions.

782Wrentham was the perfect setting for our belated wedding reception. We had time to decorate and add personal touches on the morning of the event. My makeup artist (Gyna Paine) traveled to me and used the rental space as my bridal suite. The venue was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of seating and parking for 100 guests. For dinner, we all were seated under a large, well-lit tent. The vendors we hired (DJ/photo booth, dance floor, bar service, and catering) made for a unique event that wow-ed our family and friends. We’ll remember August 24th, 2024 forever.

I had a wonderful wedding thanks to Patrick and his family. It unfortunately rained but we were able to move things around to accommodate, Patrick and his family were very helpful with setting things up. I recommend hiring a good tent company the one I used I wasn’t happy with. The bridal suite and barn was a great touch that helped a lot with the rain and getting ready. I highly recommend this venue if you are looking for a simple, rustic, organic, all natural wedding.

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.

We absolutely LOVE Saltonstall. We worked at the barn before the renovation, and after. Sophie & Kyle did an incredible job with the updates and renovations. It truly is a special place. There's nowhere else quite like it!

We cannot thank Lauryn enough for making our wedding at Harrington Farm unforgettable! As our event specialist, she was with us every step of the way, always just a phone call or email away. When the rain started the moment I got to the altar, Lauryn didn’t hesitate—she ran to get umbrellas for us and our parents, ensuring we stayed dry during such an important moment. Her quick thinking and preparedness in that unexpected situation really highlighted her dedication and care. Throughout the entire process, Lauryn’s communication and attention to detail were remarkable. She had everything we could possibly need on hand during the wedding, prepared for any potential emergency. Thanks to her, our day ran smoothly, and we could relax and enjoy every moment. We highly recommend Lauryn to any couple looking for an organized, thoughtful, and professional event specialist. She truly made our wedding day perfect!

Flag Hill Distillery & Winery, a unique, award-winning distillery & winery venue in Lee, New Hampshire, prides itself on being the largest vineyard in the state of New Hampshire.

They include a ceremony space, full catering and bar, day of support, a bridal suite, and a set of cabins for the wedding party & family to stay in afterwards (at an extra cost). We had very few issues with Flag Hill, but had a harder time communicating with the staff that manages the cabins (Rivercrest Villas). Food: great Drinks: not super strong but great! Venue space: amazing, breathtaking photo opportunities. We had about 80 guests and felt like we had more than enough space Staff: friendly, responsive to both inquiries and feedback, bartender was awesome Overall, I'd recommend this venue to anyone!

Rehoboth, MA
  • Up to 150 guests

  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $6,500

We are situated in the southern Massachusetts and Rhode Island area, approximately one hour from Boston, 20 minutes from Providence, 45 minutes from Newport and one hour from Cape Cod. Our working family farm provides a picturesque background to your event of any kind. We host weddings, bridal and baby showers, corporate and private events.

My husband and I got married at Terrydiddle Farm on June 29, 2024 and it was MAGICAL. Lissa and her team, the impeccable grounds, the horses, the lawn games, Sophie the dog... Everything was absolutely perfect and everything we were looking for. Tons of our guests, friends and family raved about our venue, saying it is the best wedding venue they have ever been to. When we toured Terrydiddle, we said we'd take a bit to think about it, and we called Lisa to confirm 10 minutes after leaving the property. A great perk they have is their "open house" where you can tour the venue while they have it set up for a wedding. It gives you such a great idea of what your day will look like. The bridal suite is so cute and was so helpful for our morning and holding our belongings, the barn and cocktail area is perfect for mingling with people after the ceremony, and the lawn games are just the best touch. Tons of our guests were playing corn hole! The fire pit was awesome for us and our guests too, and we included a cigar table, which was a huge hit! We used Terrydiddle's staff for our bar services, which worked out perfectly. The reception tent is so beautiful and the rental options (arbor, sweetheart table, barrels, etc) make things so helpful for decor purposes and eased some of my stress, as we mostly did mostly DIY. Lissa and her team do an amazing job keeping their property clean and gorgeous. The perfect wedding venue through and through.

Cisco Brewers Portsmouth is a wedding venue located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The event space provides fresh, top-quality brews and a picturesque setting for your special day. A laid-back, contemporary atmosphere and flexible spaces ensure an event you and your guests will remember for a lifetime.

My husband and I aren't even sure how to quite put our happiness and appreciation for Cisco Brewers into words! Every aspect of our wedding was absolutely perfect. The communication was seamless, from start to finish. The included setup and breakdown of the wedding was AMAZING, but the added attention to detail and little finishing touches really made the night. Brielle was great from our first venue tour, all the way through the end of the wedding night- she always made sure we had no stress, was extremely tactful and sweet in dealing with guests, and made sure we had the night of our lives. Every other staff member we met was equally as amazing! We were lucky with the weather to hold our entire wedding and reception outdoors, but knowing the indoor Alemaker's Hall was a backup made us feel even more confident with our decision. Our guests continue to reach out to us to tell us how great of a time they had, and how beautiful everything was!
