I first found the Riverhouse searching on Zola. My husband and I spoke with Holly for our initial appointment. Holly had light music playing over the speakers when we arrived, and when I walked into the ballroom and onto the dance floor, I looked at my now husband and said, “This is it, I hope they have a date in 2025 available”. The planning process with Kelley and the team was wonderful! The worksheets that are provided make planning easy and outline all the tasks clearly. We attended their vendor show which helped us determine exactly what we were looking for in our vendors to design our perfect wedding day. Our detail meeting about a month before our wedding day was smooth and we easily made all our banquet choices. A week before our wedding, we met with Holly to ensure our day of timeline was exactly how we wanted it – she totally nailed it day of! We have been to many weddings, and we believed that food was one of the most important parts of our day. We were blown away by the quality (and quantity!) of food at the Riverhouse. At our tasting, my husband and I ranked the appetizer, salad and dinner choices. The rankings were so high, we had trouble narrowing it down! It’s been about 3 weeks, and our guests are still complementing our food and saying how beautiful the venue was. The mac and cheese bar has been a HUGE hit with our guests. On our wedding day, Holly and Loretta kept everything smooth and seamless and both ladies provided a calming atmosphere when things started to feel chaotic (shout out to Loretta for grabbing me tums!). It truly seemed as if all the staff at the Riverhouse enjoyed our wedding event as much as our guests did! The food service was outstanding and went right along with our timeline, our bartenders were flawless, and we totally spied a little bit of dancing going on to our music and we were absolutely overjoyed! We would like to thank everyone at the Riverhouse for making our day amazing! We hope to see you all again sometime soon!

I had my wedding here last week. Holy crap, they knocked it out of the park. Several people said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. They said the food was so good they’d come back if it were a restaurant. The cake was also outstanding and so delicious (shout out to Paula!). More than all of that, Jonna the bridal attendant took care of me and my husband so well that we hardly had to worry about anything. We got to eat everything because she set it aside for us and we set aside time for a calm moment. She made sure we got to take the cake home. She was an excellent communicator, made sure everyone was where they needed to be and she was somehow always there when we needed her. It was like she was everywhere all at once! I thought I was going to need to corral people to help me take stuff home that night. Nope! She knew who my immediate family was and had them grab a few things. She made it all low stress. Linda was amazing in the planning process. She was communicative and diligent on following up on our loose ends. I always felt like she was there if I needed her. Chris was our salesperson and did a wonderful job. He went above and beyond and met us right before (or after) closing because it was the only time that worked for us. He made us so excited to book the place and the team truly delivered!! I wish I could get married AGAIN and I’d do it here! Ps you HAVE to book Bruno of Beauty and Life Captured! If you book here. He is masterful with the lighting of this place. Truly so talented!

Just had our wedding here on June 21, 2025! The Barrel Room - We had 32 guests and it was the perfect fit. They also have a bigger room, The Green Room if you have a larger guest count. Planning - Christine the New Park staff were absolutely amazing! She answered every single question we had, helped us out with those small details, and made every step so easy! Thankfully the venue took care of the tables, chairs, & place settings. We got 2 hours for set up & 1 hour for tear down, and as a DIY bride this was so great! Food - We really wanted a meal that we would enjoy and didn’t want traditional “wedding food”. We opted for Patty’s Pizza catering stationed hors d’oeuvres from Salt & Pepper Catering. Our guests were obsessed with the pizza and kept talking about it all week. Highly recommend - Veggie, Artichoke, Meatball, Pepperoni, with Caesar Salad. Spring Rolls, Korean BBQ skewers, Pollo Asado Empanada, Nashville Hot Chicken Bites, Beef Barbacoa Empanada. They also have a ton of other options like a pub menu, Gato’s Tacos, brunch, buffet, & dessert options. Alcohol - We opted for the Beer, Wine, & Liquor option and it was a hit with our guests. The Blender was a hit even for those who don’t usually drink beer! Parking - There was an event the same day as our wedding so the parking was a bit tight but they have parking in the back street parking. Thankfully we told our guests to use ride-share so they could enjoy the open bar! Decor - The Barrel Room was already so cute we really didn’t need much extra decor. From cute pink palm tree wall to the barrels with plants everywhere, it was stunning. We were able to pick the table and place setting arrangements and napkin colors. We also got to use their arch which added a great addition to the ceremony space. Music - I am such a music girly that I really wanted my exact playlists playing. They provided this speaker mic that worked perfectly for our needs. I created several playlists on Spotify that we used all night and plugged in our IPad. Our guests had a blast and so glad we opted to go this route. Happy to share my playlists, if you are interested! Dog Friendly - Another requirement we had for our wedding was to have our pup attend. There was plenty of room for us to have him there and be a part of the ceremony while also having his own space to relax during the rest of the wedding. Things to Know - If you are having your ceremony in this room, they don’t really have a place to “hide” before your guests arrive. We really wanted to spend a lot of time with our guests so we both were in the room as everyone arrived. If they didn’t have the event the same day, they offered for us to hide in the green room. Overall - We really wanted an all inclusive type venue that was within our budget. Our main priorities were food, drinks, and overall guest experience. If you are having an intimate wedding where you want to have your ceremony, cocktail hour, and rehearsal dinner all in one space, this is the place for you! I’m sure this would also be great for a bridal shower or rehearsal dinner! Or look into The Green Room if you have a larger guest count!

I had my wedding here and it was great. Melissa and Andrea were very helpful and responsive to all my questions. I liked that I was able to adjust what I wanted for my day of before the wedding day rather than being locked into what I had decided the day I signed the contract. They were very flexible and I would recommend them as a wedding venue to anyone. I would have preferred to have the venue for the whole day rather than the allotted time allowed but that doesn't reflect on Melissa and Andrea and how my wedding day went. The wedding was perfect, I would pick The Mountain Room over again.

We had our wedding at South Farms on the most beautiful day in August 2025 (August 23rd), and we could not have asked for a more seamless, enjoyable, and memorable experience. From start to finish, everything felt effortless thanks to the incredible staff—especially our planner, Sam Blick. Her expertise, attention to detail, and excellent communication made the entire process so easy for us. Sam and the team went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. They supported us with décor decisions, room layout, and the day-of flow, and even made the week leading up to the wedding stress-free by letting us drop off décor items early. In fact, Sam even started unboxing and decorating for us the day before (well outside of her job description!), which was such a kind and thoughtful surprise. They even hosted a “decor trial,” allowing us to mock up flowers, tablescapes, and other details in advance—which was a huge help in visualizing the day. And then there’s the venue itself—absolutely stunning. Our guests (and us!) were in awe of the rolling hills, the wildflowers in bloom, and of course, the iconic White Barn, which truly feels like a centerpiece on its own. The setting gave us the perfect mix of elevated elegance and intimate charm—we didn’t need to add much to make the day feel beautiful and special. We also have to talk about the food. This is not your typical “wedding food.” The executive chef is unbelievably talented and flexible, serving dishes that highlight thoughtful, locally sourced ingredients. It felt like dining at a true farm-to-table restaurant. Weeks later, we’re still getting texts from guests raving about the lobster rolls and filet mignon! We’ve been to weddings where the food was cold or forgettable—South Farms was the complete opposite. Yes, the price point is higher, but if food is important to you, it’s absolutely worth it. We left feeling confident that we got every bit of value out of our investment. We are so grateful we chose South Farms as our wedding venue. It gave us the most perfect day, and we cannot wait to come back for their socials and events to relive memories of our favorite day at our favorite place.

We picked Georgina's because this was the first place I took my wife for lunch when we first met. Harold is a God sent! All of my concerns were quickly removed with every last detail completed to perfection! Harold made our picture-perfect wedding come true. All of my family and friends raved about how spectacular the wedding was. Where do I start with the food...EVERYTHING was phenomenal. My only regret was I didn't go back for seconds. Harold orchestrated a dream come true wedding that flowed seamlessly. I also have to give props to Trisha. She made everyone feel welcome and I know in my heart that she played a vital role in our wedding. Trisha, the folks who attended and their young kids still talk about you teaching them dance steps. You truly made an impact on our memorable day. Lastly, a shout out to the bar staff...You folks put a TOP SHELF event!

I had my wedding ceremony and reception at The Hills Labor Day weekend of 2022. The venue is beautiful and perfectly manicured. The new pergola was a nice touch. The reception space is beautiful from the minute you walk in the doors. The views in the main room are stunning and breathtaking. The gold chairs and high ceilings make the room feel very grand and are a great setting for a wedding. Frank was very accommodating to all our requests. Allison was amazing- she anticipated and exceeded our needs and wants from the early stages of planning to providing helpful updates during the party. Everything ran smoothly and was handled eloquently. The staff was attentive and friendly. The Bartenders were smiling all night long. All my guests were complimenting the delicious food and gorgeous venue. The bridal suite was perfect for me and my wedding party to gather ourselves before the ceremony. The aesthetic and decor was very modern and clean. I had the best time at My wedding and I’m very Grateful to The Hills management & staff for providing the perfect space for us to celebrate with our loved ones. 10/10 highly recommend!

Less than a week ago, my now Wife and I hosted hundreds of our most near and dear loved ones for a wedding experience that was absolutely impeccable. From the beginning, Angela and her staff were attentive and supportive of our entire vision and dreams. Our goal was to recreate the authentic Italian wedding experience that we have come to enjoy in our travels, here in Connecticut-and the Grand Oak Villa delivered! The food is absolutely authentic and delicious, the acoustics and atmosphere are amazing & the decor and lighting is elegant. We would give anything to invite our friends and family to celebrate with us again, and Grand Oak Villa is where it would be.

I can’t even put into words how special my wedding was thanks to The Lake House (but I’m going to try lol). I found this location on Zola and when I contacted the owner, Paul, it was like speaking to an old friend even though we had never met before. He is so sincere and thoughtful and has the best tips and tricks for wedding planning. I never hired a wedding planner and I was a little overwhelmed in the beginning of my planning process but Paul was there every step of the way for me. He answered all my emails filled with dumb questions and he advised me in the best way. Carole, my wedding coordinator at the venue, was an absolute gem as well and made things so easy. My wedding was 11/16/24 (the last wedding of their season!) and I still have guests telling me how fantastic everything was. Especially the FOOD. I truly dream about the filet mignon and tiramisu we had about twice a week lol. I can’t say enough amazing things about this venue. I would have my next birthday party here just so I can see Paul and Carole again and eat more of the delicious food lol. The location is GORGEOUS and they truly made my wedding the best night of my entire life.

I booked a board retreat here (August 2025). The view was simply breathtaking, and the ambiance created an elegance that permeated every aspect of the day. What truly sets this place apart (besides the view and beautifully maintained grounds) was the impeccable organization Samantha and her crew depicted. Every detail was clearly well thought-out and executed flawlessly, making the entire experience incredibly smooth and enjoyable. The timeline flowed seamlessly, transitions between different segments of the retreat were effortless, and there was a palpable sense of calm that allowed everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. This is the second time booking here and both times the food was delicious and flavorful.
