Beauport Hotel Gloucester

s exactly it. Working with Amanda P. was great. She made sure to listen to all of our needs from beginning to end, making sure our wedding day was perfect. Our guests still rave about the beautiful location and the delicious food. What better way to mark the last day of Pride, than to marry my absolute favorite person, in this gorgeous place.

appointed. I have so many great things to say about this venue. For one, the space is absolutely beautiful, new, and well-maintained. We lucked out with a beautiful, sunny wedding day so we were married outside on the deck overlooking the ocean! But we both slept well at night knowing that even if it rained, our day wouldn't be ruined and guests would still be comfortable, warm, and dry. In addition to that, here's everything else we loved about our day at the Beauport! -Melissa, our event manager, was fantastic. She not only answered all of our questions and met with us 3 separate times (normal procedure for their events team), but she stayed ALL NIGHT and helped me with my bustle, hair, veil, told us where we needed to be & when we needed to be there, organized all of our vendors, everything. She and her team also packed up all our decor & flowers at the end of the night and put it away for us to easily take the next day. It was like having a wedding planner included in the cost of the venue! -The fact that all our family & close friends could stay onsite was also wonderful! First, we were able to make a weekend out of it. Our families were able to spend time together during the weekend at the rooftop pool, getting meals, and exploring the local area. The shuttle service at the hotel even made trips to drive us and pick us up at our rehearsal dinner! We also were able to all get breakfast on the patio the morning after the wedding. We felt good knowing that guests could stay onsite after the wedding and weren't driving. It just made the whole experience really nice and it really felt like a "wedding weekend" since we were all together at the hotel the whole time. That isn't always the case if you have to stay offsite from a venue, and families are at different hotels. -The hotel also cleaned our room while we were at the wedding (the room myself and my bridesmaids got ready in) so we came in after the wedding to a beautiful, clean room and a nice gift (handwritten note, mariposa ring dish, and chocolates) from the hotel! It was just SO NICE to come back to a clean room after our wedding, especially since my girls and I got ready in that suite and it was a little messy when we left (from the chaos of the day!). -The hors d'oeuvres were AMAZING. I'm not even exaggerating. So many people told us how good they were and I tried them all myself. They made up a huge tray for the bridal party (not just one of each item) and we were able to get plenty of everything. They also had sparking water and lemonade in the room for the bridal party before the ceremony. -The food was also good and we enjoyed our meals. Plus there was so much to choose from! You could really customize so much. Late night snack and dessert options were also available. And the bar you could do in whatever combination you wanted. Open bar, consumption bar, consumption bar for a few hours, signature drinks, etc. Food was also served quickly and efficiently. Overall, the whole experience was just seamless. They are experts at what they do! I honestly feel like we got a great deal financially as well, given that we were looking at spending significantly more at other local venues that didn't offer the same perks I just mentioned (outdoor weddings only, would need offsite hotel, not as many food options, limited bar "packages", etc). I was just so pleased with our experience here and I can't say enough about the hotel and the whole team. Plus, we can make anniversary trips to the Beauport Hotel now--it will always be a special place for us.
