Tuckerman Hall was the first venue we visited that made us feel like our wedding vision was coming to life. We wanted an elegant, grand space for the reception but we also wanted to intimately accommodate 100 of our closest family and friends. To say Tuckerman Hall delivered would be a massive understatement! Paul, Adrian, and their team worked closely with my husband and I to ensure that we were happy every step of the way and that each and every detail was accounted for. The bridal suite on the morning of was a dream and every minute of our special day felt carefully crafted just for us. Our guests continue to rave about their experience and we expect they will continue to do so as we remember our special day. We highly recommend Tuckerman Hall and their team! read more

We had our wedding reception at Tuckerman Hall in September 2024, and it was literally a dream come true!! Tuckerman Hall is gorgeous. Not only is the architecture incredible, but the ornate details of the Great Hall and blue and gold colors in the design work are immaculate. We had the entire building for our wedding, with a beautiful bridal suite on the top floor for me to get ready, and more rooms for the groomsmen and also for our own private cocktail hour. We even had the parking lots to ourselves, which is a key detail for couple's whose guests are driving in and not staying at a local hotel! Paul and Adrian are absolute professionals to work with; they know exactly how to run a wedding reception and have the format down perfectly. They are genuinely enjoyable people to work with and we are so fortunate and thankful to have had the opportunity to partner with them for our special day. We did not need a day of coordinator - in fact, I think such a coordinator would have been in the way if we had hired one! Paul even went so far as to search the hall high and low when we realized we had forgotten our sentimental cake knife behind (it belongs to my parents from their wedding). Adrian made sure that all of our special songs were ready and available as a backup in case of any DJ issues (there were no issues, but they were prepared anyway!). Also, we are Armenian, and Paul learned important phrases on his own to express his well wishes to us! Paul and Adrian made the experience feel so personal, we felt we were truly well taken care of. Months later, we keep going back over our pictures and memories of the event that would not have been possible without the incredible care and effort from Paul, Adrian, and their incredible staff at Tuckerman Hall! Now, the food. Tuckerman Hall works with Scott Toupin, a local caterer. Not only does Scott have competitive prices for wedding catering, his entire menu is DELICIOUS! My husband and I both chose the prime rib for our dinners and could not have been more pleased! We will absolutely be keeping Scott in mind if we ever need event catering again. Tuckerman also has an all-alcohol liquor license, so we were able to have an open bar with the best recommendations available. My husband and I aren't big drinkers, so Paul was able to get refreshing lemonade just for us! There is so much more that can be said, but we're already approaching four paragraphs. Tuckerman's staff were all extremely friendly and kind. Paul, Adrian, and Scott are all superstars to work with for major event planning. They are SO well organized! In conclusion, Tuckerman Hall was the best choice we could have possibly made for our wedding reception, and we will remember our time fondly for the rest of our lives. read more

My husband and I celebrated our wedding reception at Tuckerman Hall in October of 2024. Our experience was wonderful, and we could not recommend this venue more to couples looking for a wedding venue. The building itself is absolutely gorgeous, with the main ballroom being such a stunning backdrop for our reception. Our family and guests were so blown away by the classic beauty throughout the building. The Tuckerman Hall staff made planning our reception seamless. Paul, Adrian, and their entire team were so supportive and guided us throughout the planning process. They set up multiple meetings with us to go over all of the important details and made sure that our wedding day was perfect. We were so impressed with their organization and the effort they put in to make our special day happen. They could always be reached via email with questions and concerns and got back to us quickly with the information we needed. They shared vendor recommendations with us and helped us select trusted vendors for food and entertainment. We were especially impressed with their caterer, Scott Toupin. His food was exceptional, getting rave reviews from all of our guests, and his staff was skilled and efficient. On the day of the wedding, the staff arrived early to greet my bridal party and me. They provided us with a beautiful bridal suite to spend the day getting ready in. The staff coordinated with all of our vendors on the wedding day to ensure everything arrived on-time and was set up properly. We heard from many of our vendors that the Tuckerman Hall staff was easy to work with and coordinated all of the moving pieces of the wedding day like a well-oiled machine. We were so pleased with our wedding reception, and heard great reviews from our guests about the atmosphere, food, drinks, staff, and music. We appreciate the entire Tuckerman Hall team for their work in making our wedding day dreams a reality. We are very thankful we chose to hold our wedding at Tuckerman Hall and highly recommend this venue to all potential clients! read more

We had our wedding reception at Tuckerman Hall in April 2025 and it was absolutely incredible- start to finish. Paul and Adrian are lovely to work with, incredibly organized, and so attentive to all the details, and the space itself is gorgeous. We were able to bring everything to Tuckerman on Friday morning and even rehearse our first dance in the space which really put us at ease. The getting ready space was perfect for the bridal party on Saturday morning and since Tuckerman Hall is so beautiful, it also provided great photo opportunities. The food from Scott Toupin Catering was absolutely incredible! We had so many guests remark on how lovely all of the staff that they encountered were. We really felt that the staff cared so much about this being a really special day for us. We would absolutely recommend Tuckerman Hall as a venue to anyone! read more

Tuckerman Hall was a stunning and elegant venue for our wedding. The architecture and decor throughout the hall is classic and beautiful, which provided us with the perfect ambiance for our ceremony and for breathtaking photographs. New England weather can be tricky in October, and we were able to have all of our wedding events there - from getting ready in the bridal suite, to the ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception. There are so many beautiful rooms throughout the venue. The bridal suite is spacious, including a full kitchen and bathroom. There were rooms throughout the venue where we took breathtaking photos - from the stairwells, to the room where the cocktail hour was held, to the outside. I have to say that the best part of booking a wedding at Tuckerman was working with Paul and Adrian. Paul was always quick to respond and assist with questions that we had. Adrian coordinated our music beautifully and kept us on track throughout our wedding day. Everything went off without a hitch, and I know that their hard work was the main reason for that. The team overall was fantastic, helpful and enjoyed the wedding as much as we did! read more

We love the beautiful, small and intimate venue at Tuckerman Hall in Worcester. Accordint to their website, it was built in 1902, a triangular-shaped building located next to the Worcester Art Museum, containing a 550-seat hall adorned with magnificent details and ornate gold leaf accents. We've seen several performances here, but none better than Avital Meets Avital, who offers their unique spin on what' I'd describe as "New Age Moroccan Jazz", if such a phrase can be bandied together. The band is led by Avi Avital, the first mandolin soloist to be nominated for a classical Grammy. Avi Avital was fabulous on his mandolin, and accompanied by bass, percussion and piano. Omer Avital (not related to Avi) played the double bass and oud, has been praised by the New York Times as "extraordinary". He is both a talented musician and composer. He composed many of the songs played on this evening. Yonathan Avishai, who is based in France, plays played piano effortlessly, is "one of the major figures of the emerging Israeli jazz scene." And Itamar Doari, their percussionist, was in a word, fabulous, providing so much sound, one would think he was accompanied by an additional drummer. Worcester was the kickoff for the Avital Meets Avital global tour, including cities across the US, Canada, Switzerland and Germany. We would welcome an opportunity to visit Tuckerman Hall, and listen to Avital Meets Avital in the near future. read more

Easiest 5 star review I've ever written. First off, the wedding venue is gorgeous. The space comfortably held our 140 guests, with a dedicated room for cocktail hour and additional space for a bridal suite which was perfect for getting ready the morning of. Beyond the facilities, Paul and Adrian, who coordinate the space, worked with all of our vendors to ensure everything for the day of was planned to the t. We didn't have to worry about anything at all that day - they called the florist, the DJ, the photographer, the caterer and made sure everything was going to go to plan. Our wedding guests couldn't stop talking about how elegant and well organized the wedding was which we attribute to the venue and staff! read more

Tuckerman Hall, the best kept secret in Central Mass, is the most gorgeous wedding venue around. Tuckerman boasts high ceilings, beautiful columns, lovely flooring, and a wonderful stage for a chuppah and grand piano as part of the ceremony. Paul and Adrian, managers at Tuckerman, were easy to communicate with, worked very hard to ensure our day was perfect, and know how to ensure a successful wedding takes place. I was worried about having to individually hire all the vendors (i.e. catering, etc.) but no worry was needed. Everything went off without a hitch and Paul & Adrian spoke to all the vendors on my behalf to ensure everything was ready to go. Adrian goes above and beyond - all of my table numbers came in broken and he fixed all of them by hand. Their attention to detail is top notch. The day of the wedding we didn't worry about anything and had the most lovely, enjoyable day of our lives. We were so happy to have the whole day in one place - getting ready, ceremony, cocktail hour, and the best party I've ever thrown. The venue has multiple suites for the various bridal parties to get ready in and wonderful spots for pictures. I really loved taking photos on the balcony and outside the venue in front of the columned entrance. Tuckerman hands down is the most beautiful venue around and I unequivocally recommend it to all future brides searching for their dream wedding venue. read more

We can't say enough good things about Tuckerman Hall, Paul and Adrian. We recently held our wedding at Tuckerman and we had an incredible experience. Paul and Adrian took care of our every need and planned the day down to the minute so that everything went off without a hitch. The Hall itself is absolutely stunning and has every amenity a wedding party could need. The private bridal suite was a huge selling point for us, and our guests are still commending on how beautiful the cocktail hour and reception halls were. Paul and Adrian are very well connected with various vendors in the greater Worcester area, and this knowledge made for a truly seamless and stress-free day for my husband and I. If you are looking for a gorgeous, historical and accommodating venue, look no further than Tuckerman! read more

Not only were Paul and Adrian a pleasure to work with, but they pulled off the most epic wedding day we could have ever hoped for!! Every single detail was accounted for. I didn't have to think or worry about anything on our special day at all. It was completely in the hands of both Adrian and Paul. They worked with all of our vendors behind the scenes to ensure that the photographers had the access they needed, the DJ had all the equipment set up where it was needed, the caterer had everything prepared, and the baker brought the cake to the right location at the right time. They were so pleasant to our guests and to our wedding party. The staff at Tuckerman Hall was extremely accommodating and they gave us many compliments on our wedding! It's so nice to have the entire weekend to set up and to clean up rather than trying to squeeze it all into one day. Tuckerman Hall was absolutely beautiful in the daytime and at night. I cannot recommend them enough! Having the convenience of rooms for both the girls and the guys to get ready in at the venue location itself is huge! The space is perfectly sized for over a hundred guests to feel comfortable. We heard from several guests that this was the best wedding they had ever been to because the atmosphere of Tuckerman Hall with Paul and Adrian overseeing all the details felt warm and inviting while also impressive and beautiful. Thank you so much!!! read more

My husband and I had our wedding cocktail hour and reception at Tuckerman Hall in June of 2022 and our experience was absolutely perfect. If I had to sum up the look and feeling of Tuckerman Hall in three words I would say elegance, soul, and splendor. From the time I toured the venue in April 2021 and all through the following 14 months of planning process, Paul who manages it was incredibly helpful. He was consistently readily available via email phone or text whenever I had questions pop up as I was going through the planning process. He was very helpful, patient, and reassuring. In the weeks prior to the big day my family, Paul and the caterers that Tuckerman recommended all had a meeting going over every detail of the event and I felt totally assured that I was in great hands and I wouldn't have to worry about a thing on that day, even though I didn't have a wedding planner. I was right. The day went better than my hopes and expectations and in no small part thanks to Paul, Adrian, their staff, and the staff from several of my vendors whom I got from their recommended list. Not to mention the venue was simply breathtaking. Seeing it empty, but all dressed up with the linens and flowers I had selected, moved me to tears. Seeing everyone dancing with the band playing on stage later that evening after dark is a memory I will never lose. Every single guest told us how beautiful the venue was. We had many lifelong Worcester residents as guests and only one or two had seen Tuckerman before. Our guests from around the country were equally as awestruck. Getting ready in the bridal suite upstairs with my mom and my ladies was so fun and relaxing- we all have great memories from it and beautiful photos. It was also great getting to drop off so much of our stuff the day before and practice dancing with my dad and my husband, as well as being able to pick things up the day after the wedding. It all went off without a hitch and I have some of the most beautiful wedding photos I've ever seen because it all took place within this absolute gem! It's two months later and I'm still getting compliments about the venue. Thank you Paul & Adrian! read more

If you are planning to have a wedding at Tuckerman Hall, then I sincerely hope that you don't want to be in charge. Paul Levinson is the executive director/wedding planner. He would not let my fiancé and I get one word in during our appointment. He answered his cell phone during our appt. He did his spiel and then told us to call or email him if we had any questions before he swept us out to meet with two ragamuffins on their way in. He is very full of himself. While I appreciated his attention to detail, I definitely felt that the wedding would be his. It is such a shame because I have dreamed of being married at Tuckerman Hall since I was young. Also, EVERYRHING is a la carte. If you offer wine service and opt for a $5 bottle of wine, you have to pay a TWENTY ONE DOLLAR UNCORKING FEE PER BOTTLE. The prices are so expensive. Go to Mechanics Hall. read more

Tuckerman Hall was the perfect wedding venue for us! It is elegant and classy and the owner and hall manager, Paul, really takes pride in the building. Having a personal connection to this place, Paul ensures that everything is taken care of. He was fantastic to work with and his partner Adrian was also great. We were thrilled with how smoothly everything ran and how gorgeous the venue looked! We had an evening wedding and it was so beautiful at night! It is a great place to hold the ceremony and the reception; having 2 ballrooms allows you to transition from ceremony to cocktail hour and then to reception without being in the same room the entire time. Tuckerman Hall is breathtaking and really sets the tone for a very elegant wedding. read more

We held our wedding reception at Tuckerman Hall in April 2018. The place is absolutely breathtaking. Paul and Adrian who run the events were great. They were available, accommodating and communicated well with us, our vendors and guests. We were able to get in the day before to drop off and set up some things. There is big bridal suite which is perfect for getting ready. The boys had their own separate space a few floors down to get ready. I did not worry about a thing the day of the wedding. It was, truly, the best and most fun day. I am so happy I went with Tuckerman Hall. read more

We had our wedding reception at Tuckerman Hall in late April 2022 and it went very smoothly. Paul and Adrian were great to work with throughout and made sure everything went as we had hoped on the day of. We were drawn to the venue by Paul's personal/family connection, the history and character of the building, the rooms themselves, and close proximity to hotels and highways (we used the Marriott right across the street so guests could easily walk). They were very organized, helpful but not pushy, responsive, and worked well coordinating with all other vendors. Caterer options are provided (required list), but great recommendations were provided for other vendors as well. Had 120 guests and fit very comfortably for both the cocktail hour downstairs (with piano) and the main reception ballroom upstairs. Beautiful bridal suite, although we didn't require it all day but has a great set-up and is a big plus for brides as well. Several beautiful rooms upstairs we could use for our couple and bridal party photos. Very easy to work with and professional in all aspects - would highly recommend. read more

We looked at countless venues. The first reason Tuckerman Hall was immediately at the top of our list was the beauty - the architecture is stunning and the space truly speaks for itself with very little additional dressing. The second reason Tuckerman Hall was our number one is because of Paul and Adrian. They CARE about the space and about making your wedding day special. This is the opposite of those wedding factory venues that crank out 3, 4, 5 weddings a day. They give you their time, full attention, and care more about making your wedding experience unique than turning the place over multiple times on a weekend. Paul worked with us and our caterer to sort out every little detail, and even stocked the bridal suite fridge with our bubbly of choice. Leading up to the wedding he was available and attentive to all of our needs. Adrian is the other half that completes the whole experience. He specializes in AV, but that is oversimplifying what he does. The day of the wedding he is running around nonstop making sure everyone is where they need to be, when they need to be there. When my husband and I were making our rounds to say hello to everyone just before dinner, Adrian came running in to get us and our photographer because there was a beautiful rainbow outside (it had rained for most of the day). The rainbow was fleeting but he wanted to make sure we captured that special photo. That's just one example of how Paul and Adrian run things. If I had to plan it all over again, I wouldn't trust anyone else to do it the way our Tuckerman Hall team did it. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone, they are the best. read more

Our wedding reception was held at Tuckerman Hall on 6/1/19, following a Church ceremony. Cocktail hour was downstairs in separate room, and the guests entered the spectacular main area for dinner and dancing. Throughout the entire wedding planning process Paul and Adrian worked closely with us to ensure the day would go just as we hoped. They focused only on our wedding all weekend, and we had access to the Hall from Friday through Sunday, so there was no rushing on the wedding day to bring things to the venue etc. Additionally, there is a stunning bridal suite on the top floor where my bridesmaids and I got dressed, had breakfast/lunch, and prepared for the day! Paul and Adrian made sure that entrances, dances, cake cutting etc all happened on time and smoothly. They also keep the hall in excellent shape - every corner of the building is clean and has clearly been cared for and kept up over the years. Down to the chiavari chairs which are in pristine condition also. Tuckerman Hall is a perfect venue for a timeless, beautiful wedding. read more

We originally had our wedding reception booked at a county club but after looking at Tuckerman we decided to make the switch and it was the best decision I ever made. Aside from the venue being absolutely breathtaking, Paul and Adrian were the ones who made the process as easy as possible. For us the best feature was the bridal suite upstairs. Its a beautiful space that made getting ready a breeze with a large group. The venue has so much charm that every corner there is a place you want to photograph. The night was perfect and there is not one thing I would change. Paul and Adrian are the dream team that will not disappoint and without their help we would have been lost! They are the definition of professionalism and have a true passion for what they do. If you want a magical wedding definitely choose Tuckerman. read more

I can say nothing but amazing things about my experience with Tuckerman Hall! My wedding on October 8, 2016 went off without a hitch. I've heard compliment after compliment about the venue and how beautiful and unique it was. We had a fantastic experience with the staff as well. There's no need for a day-of coordinator when working with Tuckerman. They take care of every detail and help to keep the festivities moving. Adrian and Paul made sure that our wedding day was perfect and I can't recommend Tuckerman Hall enough! If you're looking for a venue that will "wow" your guests and keep you worry-free throughout your day, this is the place! read more

Tuckerman hall is an amazing wedding venue. Paul and Adrian went above and beyond making sure we had the perfect day. From the very first meeting with Paul we felt like we were taken of. First of all, they only do one wedding per weekend so their time and effort was dedicated to use from when we arrived and dropped belongings off on Friday to Sunday morning when we were able to pick up everything from the hall from the night before. This was important to us as we didn't want to feel like we were rushed out. They thought of details that never would have even crossed our mind and made sure that everything was in place. While we were hesitant about having to select each individual vendor, we were given a list of vendors that had worked at Tuckerman hall and with Paul and Adrian which really made it feel like a cohesive team. The day of our wedding they made sure that the time schedule we had created was followed and everything went smoothly and flawlessly thanks to all of the running around that they did. The venue itself is beautiful. All of our guests commented on how impressed they were with the building. The acoustics were great but volume was controlled so older folks weren't overwhelmed by the music. The bridal suite was a huge selling point for us as well. The bridesmaids got ready in the suite which included a mini kitchen equipped with a fridge, coffee machine, dishwasher, full bath (huge shower with towels), and multiple full length mirrors. Our hair and makeup artists loved working here and were impressed with the number of outlets and mirrors. Our photographers loved the building as well. The lighting, various rooms, and architecture made for some amazing photographs. Finally, the location is great. It is right across from two hotels (about a block away) and close to many after party spots. We planned an after party at the Fix and guests were able to walk there after the reception and stop by the hotel to change if needed. Overall we had zero complaints about the whole weekend and our guests only had good things to say. We would highly highly recommend this venue and working with Paul and Adrian . read more

We just wanted to thank you for coordinating and making our wedding reception a beautiful and memorable time in our lives. You did a wonderful job and it was a pleasure working with you. We know it's been already six months since the wedding (how time flies) but we figure it's never too late for a thank you. Thanks Again. read more

Tuckerman Hall is a hidden gem in Worcester, MA for a wedding venue. My husband and I both grew up in Worcester and our family and friends live nearby. We wanted to stay local for our wedding and there was not any other place in or close to Worcester that gave the same "WOW" factor like Tuckerman Hall. The historical building offers so many beautiful features that you do not find in other venues, from the hard wood floors, the tall ceilings, the architectural details, and the staff. The staff at Tuckerman, Paul and Adrian, are dedicated and committed to ensuring that everything goes smoothly for your big day. Every detail is ironed out before and they work extremely hard the day of (were both sweating) to make sure everything is perfect and goes as planned. As a bride, this was wonderful because I did not have to worry or think the day of and was able to enjoy every minute! We had a band, which played on the stage so it seemed like a concert. When I say everyone was on the dance floor all night, I mean the floor was shaking!! Because Tuckerman is a symphony hall, the music sounded amazing and no one wanted the party to end! Guests from my wedding had never been to or even heard of Tuckerman Hall and are still talking about it today - even 2 friends planned their weddings there after attending ours! The bridal suite at Tuckerman is just stunning. I had a large wedding party, 10, and we all got ready here. There is a beautiful kitchen, which worked out perfect for breakfast, lunch, and mimosas, and full bath for girls to freshen up if needed, and plenty of space for everyone. If you are getting married at Tuckerman, I suggest using the bridal suite. I have been in many weddings and I have not seen one like this! Your wedding day is suppose to be the most magical day of your life. Ours was the best day and we couldn't thank Tuckerman Hall enough for helping to create our dream wedding. read more

We would like to thank you for doing such a wonderful job at our wedding. The hall was great and we could not have asked for a better place to have our reception. All of our guests had a great time and they loved Tuckerman Hall. Thanks again for doing a great job. read more

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Tuckerman Hall on August 16, 2014 and could not have picked a better venue! From the moment we stepped inside and saw how beautiful the main hall is, we knew it was the perfect venue to have our wedding. Paul and Adrian were so easy to work with and made it their priority to make our event perfect and accommodate our every need the day of the wedding. Their attention to our event and every detail it entailed is what every bride and groom wants for their wedding. We had a band for our reception and they sounded phenomenal in the acoustics of the hall. Tuckerman Hall is truly a beautiful jewel to the city of Worcester! read more

We selected Tuckerman Hall as our venue of choice for our wedding and we could not have been happier! We looked at 10+ venues during our initial search and it was clear upon arrival that Tuckerman Hall was the space for us. Not only is the venue beautiful, it comfortably accomodated our 150 guests and the service was terrific. Paul and Adrian know their stuff and they made everything very easy for us -- from recommending ceremony musicians to local florists to caterers, and they even took care of the lighting. Their prices are fair and as wedding coordinators, we could not have asked for better. We received numerous compliments from our guests that the wedding was one of the best they've ever attended and we have Tuckerman Hall to thank for that. The location was perfect, the service was stellar and the event went off without a hitch. There's no doubt we'd recommend Tuckerman Hall to others for their future events! read more
