The facility was stunning. We had amazing weather and the pictures were spectacular. The wedding coordinator was so great. Every transition went so smoothly and it was just a wonderful wedding filled with joy and celebration. My friend (Mother of the groom) was so happy that everything went so easily and she was able to just enjoy her boy and his new wife on their big day. This crowd was so fun and we definitely kept the bartenders busy. They were also fantastic. They were fast and friendly. Definitely professional. The dance floor was packed all night and the DJ was amazing. If you want a spectacular wedding...this is the place.

This review is regarding this venue as a wedding destination…read more This venue is picturesque however Tammy is rude and unprofessional and I would not recommend working with her to any bride.* This venue will NOT accommodate you in any way. You aren't allowed to bring any of your flowers/setup until 2PM the day of the wedding (have fun with that when the ceremony is at 4PM! I'm sure brides love running over with the event stuff right before their wedding). There is no reason for this other than the staff/Tammy refuse to arrive earlier to accommodate brides. Just know this prior to booking and be prepared to manage your day accordingly. There are very rude signs all over the event saying if there is outside alcohol, the event is immediately stopped. As in canceled. Stopped. Done. I don't think anyone minds that policy, but this is indicative of how rude the managers/owners of this property are. Here are some other interactions I witnessed: 1. The bride's mother was giving the venue the alcohol check the day off. When the bride's brothers arrived to decorate the arch, Tammy harangued them "Where's my check?" They had nothing to do with the payment and were simply trying to help their sister who of course couldn't come over to set up the wedding because the Tammy and staff don't open the barn before 2PM. When the brides mother arrived, Tammy ran to her car and didn't even let her out the door. "Where's my check?" Then proceeded to follow her until the poor woman (75 years old) fished the check out for her. Maybe the bride's mom was supposed to pay Tammy earlier, and I understand this is a business, but yikes. 2. As groomsmen and bridal party/family waited to go take pictures with the bride and stood in the main barn area, Tammy brought in a prospective couple who wanted to look at the venue and showed them around the barn and brought them to the set up table area. This was so unprofessional. We're literally minutes away from the ceremony. On top of that, I found out later that our bride wasn't allowed to tour the barn during the weekend/when events may be taking place back when she was thinking about booking, and had to take time off during the week in order to get a tour. So what the heck? 3. The groom asked for his favorite bottled beer to be stocked. During the event, Tammy was behind the bar and in front of many guests, saying "He didn't drink any of this damn beer and now we're stuck with it." Among other complaints. How unprofessional is this? You're paying them a lot of money. They should accommodate you and maybe wait until you leave to complain about you. I will say that as far as the organization during the event, Tammy did a nice job moving people around and getting everything to run smoothly. I'm just shocked that this venue with this organizer has won awards by yelp and other bridal organizations that it's a "Best of" place in MA to get married. Yes, it's very pretty, but isn't service and pleasantness a consideration? *Full transparency: I was not the bride at the wedding I attended here, I was family adjacent, but I witnessed the bride and her family and the interactions with Tammy all first hand.

Pat and Skip run a home grown local business right out of their house and make their guest feel welcomed as they tour their beautiful property while searching for the PERFECT christmas tree. Every tree is one flat (extremely reasonably priced) rate no matter what size. They offer hay rides on an old fashion tractor pull, and complimentary hot chocolate as well as freshly made zucchini bread are always on the menu available in the barn. Lastly, but probably most important, are the memories and pictures you will have and be able to cherish for the rest of your life.

I was pleasantly surprised by this event…read more I will admit I was worried about the Revere crowds. My memories of Revere Beach center around Plumbers Cleavage, Tramp Stamps, and jiggling pot bellies. Fortunately this crowd was no where to be seen. It was a very diverse, international crowd. Many foreign languages being spoken. And I think I was the token blonde in the crowd. We choose to go on Sunday evening. Hoping the crowds had thinned. It was still pretty crowded. I can only imagine how crowded it would have been earlier based on the throngs of people leaving. Traffic and parking was a nightmare. We must have spent 45 minutes to go the last 1/2 mile - we had planned to park at Wonderland. Fortunately some people were leaving and we were able to snag their parking spot. We finally arrived after 7. We circled the sculptures, first on the ocean side- seeing the backs. By the time we got to the front side to circle back, the crowds had thinned even more and, though still packed, we were able to get easy photos of all the sculptures. I plan to return next year. Will probably try to go earlier in the week to see the sculptors at work. And will definitely take the T.
