I chose Tracey as my wedding planner with high hopes despite no current reviews. Unfortunately, her…read morelack of reviews should have been an indicator of her skills as a planner. Tracey lacked communication with me, my vendors, my bridal party, and my family and was late on multiple occasions. Due to poor communication between a vendor and her, I had to change the venue site two days before my wedding, which was rather stressful. He had requested to assess the venue over three months in advance, and she told him no, never consulting with me to ask if he could come out. I found this out two days before our wedding. She was unable to handle simple tasks and failed to assert herself and take charge of her defined role. She stood in the background watching the entire weekend. I would like to call her an expensive guest, but even my guests contributed more to my wedding day than she did. My bridal party "met" Tracey at the rehearsal dinner. However, she attended but didn't speak one word to anyone and sat at the end of the table. On the day of the wedding, she stood in the background, didn't help solve any last-minute concerns, ate out food, didn't engage with anyone, then took our wedding leftovers home. We were happy to send food with her but so profoundly disappointed in her role over the weekend. A word of caution: after meeting with my vendors before and after my wedding, there was talk they would no longer do business with Tracey due to their poor experience and lack of communication. This may restrict the vendors for future weddings if choosing to work with Tracey as a planner.

my now husband and I decided to tie the knot in the white mountains. We needed flowers last minute…read moreand all the flower shops were closed besides DG. We were so stressed that no one would be able to help us. We walked in and were immediately greeted with a friendly smile and a positive can do attitude when asking for help. Tracy was able to put together the most beautiful bouquet in less than 20 minute. she even added a boutonniere to match my bouquet. Tracy laughed with us and cried with us, and took the stress out of last minute shopping! 1000/10 would recommend this shop to anyone in the area needing flowers!

Jackie's team prepared many components for us from bouquets, a stunning ceremony chuppah, gorgeous table arrangements and lovely touches throughout our venue such as hanging greenery on the chandeliers. It was elegant yet still simple and rustic which is exactly what we wanted. Thank you Jackie and team for making our wedding day everything we wanted!

She just bought the business this spring and she is doing a great job running the place. My fave part of the inn was this great porch overlooking the yard. It was so peaceful and we sat out there for several hours. Sadly it rained the whole time we were there but we stayed nice and dry on the porch and relaxed listening to the rain on the roof. The breakfast was so good. We had so many things to eat and everything was delish. Mariah also directed us to a local running trail that was very close by - which was perfect for us (even tho it was raining). Lastly - we met so many awesome people that were also staying there from all over the world. Had great conversations at night and also the next morning at breakfast. Def hit this B&B up if you are in the area. You will not be disappointed.

Leon and Nellie have been friends of my family for years (even longer than the decades we've been…read morecoming to New Hampshire), but somehow we'd never stayed at the Spruce Moose. Even without the familial connection, I'd be absolutely in love with this place. Family and friends gathered this past weekend for a memorial hike in honor of my dad, who passed in 2007. Leon and Nellie went out of their way to accommodate us, down to even offering additional rooms when some extra guests appeared and getting up extra early to make us to-go egg sandwiches we could take long on our hike up Mt. Washington. Both our group and the other guests at the Inn were treated like treasured friends in their home and it felt like a big old family reunion for us all. The Spruce Moose is the perfect location---a short walk to the adorable North Conway village, and a quick drive to countless hiking options. The decor makes you feel like you're visiting friends in a luxurious mountain home. Zeb and Avery, the two trusty labs, greet you at the door and will cuddle you on the couch for hours if you let them. The beds are comfy, and the rooms contain no tvs so you can truly enjoy the nature around you (though there IS wi-fi if you need your technology fix). Breakfast in the morning is delicious and filling. Tea and coffee are available at any time. It was an amazing weekend, in no small part to Leon and Nellie. I will be back to the Spruce Moose the next time I come to North Conway!

My room was beautiful, the shower had great water pressure, and the lodge itself is super warm and cozy. I honestly felt like I was visiting relatives I just hadn't met yet.
