We cannot say enough good things about Birch Wood Vineyards. I was a Covid bride so there were a lot of planning unknowns and I was never the bride wanting to postpone and was willing to do whatever we had to do to make it happen. The team at B...
irch Woods knocked it out of the park and exceeded every one of our expectations. From the initial meetings, Melisa was open and honest with how the billing process was (laying out everything in detail with no hidden fees), always there with any questions we had throughout planning, to our decoration drop off, everything was seamless. She ran through the entire day on how things would go. I knew just then this was the place for us. I am a very organized person so finding someone who i could trust was everything. So the morning of, my bridal party used the suite to get ready, it was the perfect set up for hair and makeup. I was blown away by how much work everyone put into finding spots for every decoration I had. When my husband and I were taking pictures, we had our own bartender/waiter to make sure we had enough food and drinks and were not missing out during cocktail hour. The food was spectacular, and the night was perfect. At the end, the team had boxed up everything, and was already putting it into our cars, they even managed to save pieces of my wedding cake. My husband and I think back on this day and remember it as one of the best days of our lives, one we wish we could re-live again and again and for that we cannot thank Birch Wood enough. The team was incredibly organized, the food was AMAZING, everyone was so sweet to us. I received so many messages from guests on how Birchwood made them feel safe and how it was just the perfect wedding during a pandemic. Thank you for your hard work, it showed! We will forever be great full for everything your team did for us.

eauty of Birch Wood lies in the people who work so tirelessly to help their events run effortlessly. From the second we said "I do" to the venue, up until our real "I do's" the day of the wedding, Birch Wood made this entire process a breeze. They answered every question I had without pause, helped organize various pieces of our day, and expertly coordinated everything on the day of. Our wedding was magical, and we have Kacia and the entire Birch Wood team to thank.

g was seamless from start to finish; they keep you organized, on schedule, and are always available if you have any questions or concerns (seriously, they will email you back SO fast it is amazing). What we loved beyond the fact that it is absolutely beautiful, is that it truly felt all inclusive. It was so nice to be able to borrow all of their decorations (no need to buy table numbers, placecards, etc. that you'll never use again) and that their packages are so easy to customize. Our wedding day was perfect, and exactly what we wanted. They worked with us to have our vision of an outdoor ceremony, even though it was raining almost all of the morning. Kasia, Denise, and Linda keep you on time, organized, and make sure anything you want is taken care of. Our guests were so enthusiastic about the venue and the food is great as well, but as a bride I cared most about the people we were working with. The nice thing is, they'll pack up some food for the bride and groom as well for the next day :) My advice: book this venue, but book it WAY in advance since they are so popular.

I cannot recommend Birch Wood Vineyards enough. From the second we toured, we knew we had found our place. The grounds are beautiful no matter what season you're thinking about getting married during. Indoors you're greeted by dark wood, huge ...
wine barrels, fire places in every room. Which gave us the coziest, romantic, winter wedding that I thought I could only dream of. The staff is so knowledgeable, they were always very quick to respond when we had a question. They offer an all-inclusive package which made helping us find photography, dessert, and flowers a breeze. The service on the wedding day was unmatched. Everyone from the wedding coordinator, to the waitstaff, to the bartenders, were all so amazing. The food was unbelievably good - portion sizes are so much larger than what you typically think of when you're picturing a wedding meal. If we could, we'd get married here every weekend! Thank you Birch Wood!!

neyard yourself! The communication through all the hardworking managers, staff, owners, etc. was beyond what I could have expected. They always got back to you in such a timely manner. They were patient, flexible, helpful, reassuring, everything and more. Thank you all for making my wedding planning process such an exciting and stress-free time for me! The night of the wedding was truly something I will never forget! I said to my friends and family multiple times, my main take away on my wedding night was how amazing the two coordinators were. I know for a fact I would not have been able to get through it so successfully without them! Denise & Kacie, we can’t begin to express our gratitude. Denise and Kacie anticipated needs I never even knew I had! For example, the walkthrough process they took control and made expectations so clear and concise for family members and bridal party. Arriving that morning of, they had laid out all my bridesmaid’s gits, organized the getting ready area, had morning snacks prepared, etc. They unpacked and packed everything up, having such an organized system down. They took care of *everything. * But most importantly, they prioritized YOU and your HUSBAND above everything else. They treated you like nothing else matters but the two of you, and it was such a special feeling. In all the commotion you would expect to experience the day of your wedding, I have to say Denise kept me so leveled. I was so calm and collected, and I most certainly would not have been without her (anxious person here). Her reassurance, confidence, kindness, and excitement for me as a bride was something you can’t just pretend to do. We will forever be grateful for everyone who played a part in making our wedding perfect. We are so lucky! Thank you!

y if we tried. Birch Wood is a top notch venue and helped bring our vision to life. They provide you with a list of vendors you can trust and feel confident in hiring. Their food is second to none. We still go back for their experience nights, to get another taste of their delicious cuisine. If you don't pick the sesame chicken bites, Mac and cheese bar and chicken tenders for a late night snack - I can tell you you're making a mistake! Our family brings up the food and the atmosphere of our special day every time we see them. They say things like "best wedding we've ever been to" "wedding of a lifetime" "best meal ever" "best cocktail hour ever" "most beautiful ceremony space". We honestly knew we'd received compliments on our day, but are shocked by the amount and the sincerity behind them all. We just gleam with pride knowing we had the best team of people that helped us bring our vision to life! Day-of coordination is included with their wedding packages, and thankfully so! Denise, Linda, and Melissa were absolutely AMAZING! These women were by my side whenever I needed them to be, overlooked the flow and the timeline of events, and took care of any issues behind the scenes and without ever letting me know of any issue (was there even any?). Denise came up to me multiple times asking "what isn't perfect? can we make anything better?" I couldn't believe the attention to detail they all have. I knew from our rehearsal I would not have anything to worry about on the day of, and that I could truly just enjoy the day and the moments and spend my time making memories with the people I love. I wish I could do it all over again. I would in a second, no question about it. WE LOVE BIRCH WOOD! Thank you, thank you, thank you! From the bottom of our hearts, The Blanchettes 🤍🤍🤍

To the entire wait staff, you are the best in the business. Fast and courteous. To the kitchen staff. The appetizers and main course were outstanding and our Prime Rib was overflowing on the plate.

d the wedding checklist they gave us was super convenient and easy to follow! Now for the big day! Kasia was our day of coordinator and she made sure everything ran smoothly from our 10AM arrival to our 9:30PM departure. I never had an ounce of stress because she was so organized, approachable, and quick to find answers to any questions! Every single one of our vendors approached us and had high praise for the entire staff and especially Kasia. Specifically, our photographers said that she ensured they had their time to eat with the rest of the guests which is not something that always happens. We really loved our vendors and were so happy Kasia made sure they were taken care of too! One more specific detail, my dress didn't have a bustle and Kasia had the awesome idea to safety pin it up into a bustle. No one even knew it was just a safety pin and it allowed to be much more comfortable walking around the reception! Further, the venue is BEAUTIFUL and the food was AMAZING. Every single guest (100+ people!!!) had high praise for both and many guests expressed that it was the best wedding meal they've had in a long time. We cannot thank Birch Wood enough for making our special day incredible! Wedding shouldn't be stressful and Birch Wood does everything they can to ensure you have the best day ever, we'd highly recommend booking them for your wedding!

lpful, personable & well organized. You all played significant roles in assisting us to create a beautiful,memorable wedding. Planning a wedding, especially out of state,can be a bit chaotic. In one of our initial meetings the contract was discussed in length and at anytime throughout the planning year we had questions or concerns, BWV got back to us within 24 hrs to e plain/ discuss. Not once did anyone make us feel like a bother. We had a rehearsal run the night before along with dropping off any and all items to be used the next day( memory pictures, guest sign, place cards, favors etc) Scott, the staff manager, went over everything in detail so there would be no confusion or surprises on the big day. Saturday, the ceremony area, remembrance hutch, cocktail hour room and reception space were set up exactly the way the newlyweds requested and it all looked fabulous!! Birch Wood is such a warm beautiful venue that unless you over decorate it could not look bad. On it’s own it is lovely. On the day of, the bride & her entourage got ready in one of BWV upstairs suites. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived to see a large and delicious tray of pastries along with mimosas (yummy) . Thank you Birch Wood as it was a nice touch and very much appreciated!! As warm & lovely as the venue is, the staff equals it. I am still receiving. compliments not only on how phenomenal the food was( oh those lamb pops & scallops) but how attentive & courteous all the servers were. One guest thought that their group was assigned their own staff members because no sooner were they done with oen appetizer someone was there with another~this continued throughout the whole cocktail hour. Several guests had their meals boxed up because they ate so much during that hour. As with many events where alcohol is served, you usually find someone(s) who over indulges & our evening was no exception. Scott and his staff( particularly the always smiling bartenders) remained calm and handled this guest with extreme professionalism. Scott made me aware of what was happening (and as host I appreciated it) and reassured me they had it under control and to focus on my daughter and enjoying the rest of the evening, which I did. 98% of our guests never knew or heard the drama and that is due to Scott and the staffs steadiness and expertise ( along with his foresight) to guide this guest to the side out of people’s sight. I will be forever grateful to them as my daughter & most guests will only remember a drama free, beautiful evening. Here we are 4 weeks later and still receiving rave compliments on the wedding. I highly recommend BWV if you are looking for a warm and inviting but yet chic and elegant venue. The food is top notch and I think you will be hard pressed to find a staff as exceptional and caring as Birch Woods. I can only hope to come back someday as someone’s guest !! Thank you all for help creating my daughter’s dream day!!!

PPY that we did. From start to finish, our wedding day was truly perfect. Now let’s talk about the food…. I’m going to backtrack a bit and talk about the food tasting we had prior to our wedding. Unfortunately due to covid, our food tasting was “to go” back in January. Bummed out we didn’t get to experience this at the venue, the food did not disappoint. We thought “if the food is this good to go, I can’t imagine how awesome it’s going to be at the wedding!” And WOW! The food was so delicious! From our macaroni and cheese bar to our late night tacos and the main courses in between (chicken Marsala and prime rib) everything was phenomenal! We would go back over and over for date night dinners just to eat everything all over again. Now for the staff….literally the nicest, genuine, professional people you’ll ever want to meet. Shannon and Melisa are the event planners and we’re so extremely helpful in the planning process. They were able to answer all of our questions within 24 hours. 3 days prior to our wedding we had our decor drop off, and thats when we met with Scott, the event coordinator. He was very thorough and had a clipboard and a check list to go over. He even took a picture of one of the set ups to be sure it looked the way we wanted it. During our decor drop off meeting, he went over every detail about the wedding from A to Z. Scott was also more than accommodating to meet us off site for our rehearsal dinner. Then the day of our wedding came and that’s when we realized how awesome ALL the staff is! Ashley was super helpful. She held my bouquet, helped bustle my dress, and even helped me in and out of my Bruins jersey because it took several people to make sure my hair and make up was still perfect. While my husband and I were taking pictures, there was a waiter with a water in one hand and a cocktail in the other to provide us in between each shot. The moment we finished a drink, they immediately went back for a refill. Great, great service! And I can’t forget the dancing waiter that everyone referred to him as! The family and friends at the table he was serving kept raving about how great he was! We really felt they went above and beyond in making our day the best day of our lives. We would redo our wedding day a million times over and over due to Birch Wood’s amazing venue and staff. We HIGHLY recommend having your wedding at Birch Wood Vineyards!!!

I promise, as unnecessary as that seems now, it's a god send on your wedding day. Leading up to it, coordinators are extremely prompt with email responses and can answer any questions you have. The vendors they work with and recommend are top notch - doing the Ultimate Vendor package really made everything a breeze and took a lot of stress off of us. We really had a perfect time with lots of great memories.

Food is important for a lot of people. Most people enjoy eating, well the chefs here enjoy cooking and it shows! From the displays of the food to the taste, it was immaculate. The food was also a high topic conversation that people reached out to me about after the fact. This place truly cares about what you want for your day and you can really feel that! If your looking for your event to be perfect and everything you want it to be then I wouldn’t look past Birch wood vineyards. I now understand why the people who I know got married here said they booked it before they left the parking lot and it shows!

Her and Rachel were so kind and helpful after the ceremony in helping to hold flowers, keep us hydrated, and most importantly- make sure our day was exactly what we wanted. When some stitching came loose on my dress they were there with safety pins in a flash. We even had a couple of kids at the ceremony who were greeted with coloring books - a fun surprise we had no idea coming (and the kids and their parents loved it). Every member of the Birch Wood Vineyards staff was so kind, it made our entire wedding day that much more special. I certainly can’t leave out all the amazing food! From the mac n cheese martinis to the salads to dinner itself, everything was delivered and our guests couldn’t stop raving about it.

nt, and received a swift response to our online inquiry. Melisa greeted us and walked us through the space we knew would be the perfect backdrop for our wedding. The rustic, cozy, and lodge-feel is perfect for any season; but in our case was a true show-stopper for our December winter wedding. The major perk - you have the whole site for your event! There’s no worry about directing your guests which room to find. Two grand event spaces - for a ceremony & reception and a cocktail hour room. It was so refreshing to see a space specific for the mingling and sipping guests would be doing between ceremony and reception. With a bridal suite and a groom’s den available, we enjoyed the whole day getting ready and celebrating with our wedding party! Of course there’s also the gorgeous vineyard and beautiful landscape for ceremony and/or pictures. Walk into the venue and you’ll be sold. For two years we prepared and planned and everything to-do was so clearly defined by the team at BWV. We never felt overwhelmed in the process; and anytime we had a question, someone on the team was eager to help! Did we mention our wedding was in 2020? You can imagine the constant concern and worry about hosting an event, but Melisa and the rest of the team kept us positive and grounded in hosting our wedding. The packages are suitable for any budget, customizable for anyone looking to add some extra enhancements, and even include a vendor package option, which was a great option for us as we saved time and didn’t face any stress in choosing the main vendors you search for when planning a wedding. The food to put it plainly is delicious, but to put it more robust - the food is undoubtedly the best food we have ever had at an event venue. (We aren’t biased that our wedding was hosted here!) The stationary hors d'oeuvres were so beautifully displayed and the passed hors d'oeuvres were actual melt-in-your-mouth bites of delicious food. So good that we indulged in the leftovers after the wedding in our hotel room! The dinner options are extravagant. There are so many options to choose from all with their unique flavor profile. The compliments we received were overwhelming and we could only agree that it was out of this world delicious. The team went above and beyond. We worked with Scott and Kasia the day of our wedding and they were so attentive, so kind, so professional. We were catered to with every step, every sip, and every smile. We are still in awe at the service we both received throughout our day. The bar staff was amazing: so personable, quick, and friendly. As we are very specific and detail-oriented people, there were nerves letting someone else decorate the space when there was a vision in mind - but we were ASTOUNDED by the way they ran with our vision and brought our decor and ideas to life. The service is impeccable, the grounds are gorgeous, and the venue was a wonderful location for the moment we began our forever! If you’ve made it this far in the review - hopefully you’ve already called or emailed to book your day. You truly won’t be disappointed!

Fast forward to the day of and we are facing a snow storm in October. While it happens once and a while, not something you plan for often. Of course you want things to be perfect, and this was a new hurdle. The venue had the lot plowed, the paths shoveled and the fire places burning. In what could have been a real downer of a day due to weather, it really turned into something special do to their focus on details. Every vendor from our package was great. The DJ, the photos, the video, the cake and the limo. All of it went so smoothly day of for us which really allowed us to just have a good time and celebrate. If you use Birchwood, trust their vendors you won’t be let down (shout out to Get Down Tonight Entertainment, Precious Moments videography, Chickidee Hill cakes and Black Tie Limos). And finally, the staff. Kasia was with us from minute one day of the event. She and her team executed our vision for decorations flawlessly. Many times making recommendations that really added to the event or were better than our own ideas. Having a team that knows how to keep a schedule for us was wonderful, it allowed us to hit every important moment with out having to worry about it much ourselves. I can’t state enough how wonderful the Birchwood staff was for us. Our friends and family were raving about how beautiful the venue was, how amazing the food was and overall just the great night they had at our wedding.

Words cannot truly express how grateful we are that we chose Birchwood Vineyards as our venue for our wedding (8/14/2020). We toured over 5 NH venue options before touring Birchwood, and within 5 minutes of our tour, we were sold. Here's why: ...
1. Aesthetic -- the beautiful vineyard enveloping the outdoor ceremony space, combined with the elegant rustic cocktail & reception space was the match made in heaven for what we were looking for. Birchwood staff puts thought and excellence into every visual detail of their venue space - especially when it comes to their gorgeous, seasonal landscaping! 2. The staff -- from the very first tour, and throughout our entire experience, both myself, my now husband, my parents, and anyone that interacted with the Birchwood staff have had nothing but praise for them. They truly are your partners, and their level of customer service and attentiveness to their couples & couple's families is next level. When Covid hit, and backup plans needed to be discussed, Birchwood was immediately prepared to offer alternatives to our original plan, and do anything in their power to still make our day special, given state guidelines. 3. This place has thought of everything -- no, I really mean it. Everything. From hooks in the main foyer and the bridal suite for optimal wedding dress photos, to the immense amount of space in the bridal suite bathroom for all types and sizes of dresses to fit, to the layout and design of every space, this venue has truly thought everything through! Past the detail in the spaces, when it came to day-of details, the staff was on top of it ahead of time. They had already sent us a "bridal party drink order form" so they could bring our choice of cocktail to us during photos. We had talked through every detail of the day so everything could run as smoothly as possible. We felt so taken care of! I could not speak more highly of Birchwood Vineyards and would recommend them to ANY bride in the New England area!

Our wedding was in July, and between the amazing blooming flowers and the grape vines, we could not have pictured a more beautiful backdrop for our outside ceremony. Their reception room is so gorgeous and has that perfect rustic romantic feel to it. Their bridal suite is also to die for! It is so gorgeous and bright, which was perfect for our getting ready photos. Kasia, Scott, Melisa, and Carina were always coming up to check on us to make sure we had everything we needed.

Sarah was so amazing during the process of getting me down the aisle and taking pictures after the ceremony. There was an issue with my bustle right before the reception and she pinned me up and fixed it so fast that I didn't even have time to stress about it! Carina was also very helpful while taking photos by grabbing safety pins to fix my bustle and running up to get my sandals because I was sinking in the grass in my heels during photos! During the reception, Scott was always checking in on both of us and was so attentive and supportive the entire night. He made sure we sat down and had something to eat, kept us on track with the events throughout the night, and was always right there when we needed him for anything at all. I also can't say enough phenomenal things about the food! We chose the filet mignon and the chicken toscana and they were both AMAZING! We had so many people come up to us saying the filet mignon melted in their mouths. My bridal party also would not stop talking about the coconut chicken hors d’oeuvres! At the end of the night, Scott and the team had already packed all of our decorations up and had loaded everything in our cars before the reception was over so that we would make it to our after party before the bar closed. They also packed up multiple take out boxes for us with cake, our leftover dinner, and plenty of grilled cheese from our late night snack station! Scott and Sarah escorted us to our cars after the night was over, and I can't lie and say that I didn't get a little teary eyed when we all hugged goodbye and thanked them for truly making our day so incredibly perfect. We have heard SO many times that our wedding was the best wedding our guests have ever been to.

The staff at Birch Wood Vineyards did everything for us; we did not have to worry about a thing! Their customer service and attention to detail was excellent. All of their preferred vendors (many of which we hired) were top notch. During photos, a member of their staff was specifically assigned to my husband and I. During the dinner, the General Manager, Scott, visited every table to ask if anyone needed anything and put our parents' leftovers in the fridge until the end of the night. The food was delicious; my husband and I actually had time to enjoy our meal. They also catered to our guests who had dietary restraints. At the end of night, their team packed everything up for us. The only small error we can think of is that our guests were welcomed with the wrong signature drink, but it was probably a miscommunication and so minimal considering we had open bar anyway! Thank you, Birch Wood Vineyards, for helping us host a beautiful wedding. We had so much fun, and all of our guests keep raving about how great it was. Highly recommend!

my wedding here one day. Fast forward 2 ½ years and my husband and I were engaged. From the minute we got engaged I knew we HAD to go back to Birch Wood and do a tour. When we arrived on a Saturday morning, we were given a tour by Melisa, she was amazing. She showed us around the facility and really made us feel like we were the most important part of her day. She had up lighting turned on to our potential color scheme and even had a sample monogram above the fireplace with our names on it and this was just at the initial consultation and tour! Every moment from booking the venue to our big day was incredible! The staff at Birch Wood does everything they can to make your dreams become a reality. Melisa is phenomenal at her job and made the entire process stress free! She was always quick to respond to my questions and was always reassuring in any decision we made! I can only imagine how many weddings she has a hand in planning but at all time she always made us feel like we were the only one! The day of the wedding was perfect! From getting ready in the beautiful bridal sweet, to getting the first look at the venue decorated, all the way to the end of our reception, everything went perfectly! Scott & Kasia made sure everything ran smoothly and always made sure we were happy and taken care of. The only bummer is that our day seemed to go by way to FAST! I wish we could relive that day over and over again. We have received so many compliments from family and friends about how amazing the food was, how beautiful the venue was, and most importantly how incredible the staff was at Birch Wood. We cannot begin to thank all of them enough for making our wedding the best day ever! I don’t think I could imagine a more perfect day!

We cannot thank every single person who was involved in the front of the house or the back of the house enough for making our once in a lifetime event this amazing! Some of our guests echoed our feelings that the grounds were picturesque, multiple interior fireplaces made it feel cozy, the decorations were gorgeous and the food was remarkable.

I really want to highlight the exceptional Birch Wood staff who made our entire wedding experience as stress-free as possible. Throughout the planning process, we worked primarily with Melisa and Kasia. They were accommodating, responsive, always prepared for our meetings, following up via email the same day and even updating the online portal. The online portal was another huge plus - you can view your wedding timeline/details and vendors, and complete the seating chart all from a portal they set you up with). On the day of, Kasia, Alison and Scott were there to ensure everything went smoothly. Kasia was there to greet us in the morning and get us settled in the bridal suite. She also met the vendors as they arrived and setup our decor. Alison pinned the boutonnieres, helped me with my shoes, bustled my dress and ensured we were always enjoying ourselves. Scott was always visible. He greeted guests and most importantly, made sure my grandparents, who have walkers and wheelchairs, received special attention. My grandmother still raves about Scott and how he got a golf cart to take them inside after the outdoor ceremony. She jokes that she felt like she was the bride, and that could not make me happier. At the end of the night, the staff packed up the décor we brought and made sure nothing was left in the onsite suites, making the "clean-up" aspect still hands free for our families. Our guests continue to say how our wedding was one of the best they have ever been to and that is the ultimately compliment. We had an unforgettable experience and cannot thank Birch Wood Vineyards enough.

BRIDES- the bridal suite is absolutely STUNNING and cozy and makes for beautiful getting ready photos. The food... OH MY HEAVEN. The food provided by Birch Wood is sent straight from heaven. Our guests were raving about absolutely every aspect, from the displays in cocktail hour to the presentation of the salad to even my picky Nana saying that was the best piece of chicken she has ever had in her entire life. As if all of this is not enough to sway you, let me take a second to talk about the staff. The staff at Birch Wood Vineyards takes you into their family for the entire planning process. I never felt like I was bothering anyone and everyone was always so quick to jump in and help answer questions. On our actual wedding today the help was outstanding. There was not 1 thing that I worried out. They took all of our decor and set it up in the most beautiful way. They made sure we were completely comfortable and helped us find a place to order lunch from. I mean I even forgot my deodorant before the ceremony and they ran up to get it for me! Scott was the best! I literally felt like part of the family. He helped calm my nerves before I walked out to the ceremony by making me laugh and he was the first one to meet us and congratulate us afterwards! He even offered to drive us back to the hotel after the wedding since we didn't have a limo. Absolutely everything was packed up before it was time to go and was brought out to our cars by staff. Our friends and family could not believe that someone was walking around and making sure that everyone enjoyed their food and was checking in on them, the level of service provided is much higher than 5 star! I really and truly don't have the right words to describe this place and all that comes with it. Our wedding day was truly the best day of our entire lives and a huge part of that was because of Birch Wood Vineyards and the service that they have provided to us. I cannot recommend a place more.

It truly is hard to put into words how incredible it was to work with the Birch Wood Vineyards staff. The property alone, inside and out, is absolutely breath taking, but to have an ENTIRE staff as attentive, knowledgeable and pleasant as they ...
do, is close to impossible to top. We were greeted at our initial visit by Melisa with a smile and a warm welcome who proceeded to give us a tour and sat down to look thru the different options and potential dates available for 2018. We were shocked when they only had two dates left in October 2018 but now, having experienced our own wedding there, we completely understand why. We left our initial visit and within three hours, called to confirm October 14, 2018 for our wedding. This was without a doubt, the easiest decision for us in the planning process. Our taste testing was that of a real wedding. We experienced cocktail hour as if we were guests at a wedding along side many other couples who also chose Birch Wood as their venue. We ate dinner in the room in which our reception would be held which included a salad, four mini entrees and desert. The food was INCREDIBLE! Various meetings were scheduled with Melisa and Amanda throughout the months leading up to our wedding where they kept us on track for deposits, to ensure we covered all details and to answer any questions we may have had. I must have emailed them 20 times with questions and each time I received a response within three days with a detailed answer and excitement for our wedding as if it were their own. Upon arrival for our rehearsal, Kasia was by the door with a cart ready to load all of our decor and misc items for the wedding the next day. Scott took inventory of all items that were dropped off and made sure to fully understand how we pictured everything to be set up. Our cocktail hour sheet for the bridal party and parents (yes, they take your drink choices in advance and have them ready with your passed apps immediately following the ceremony) was reviewed. Kasia and Scott showed a level of excitement that once again, assured us that our wedding would be perfect. We arrived the day of the wedding and both Kasia and Scott were extremely attentive to us throughout the day, kept us on track, had the guys pinned and were there as we took our foot steps out of the building to walk down the isle. Throughout the night they made sure we had everything we needed and that expectations were met. The food was incredible and the service on all fronts absolutely blew us away. As I took a last walk around, Scott had my car packed of all decor, packaged food, gifts, cards and cake. He handed me the keys to come back any time the next day and tanked us for choosing them for our wedding. The level of service is truly remarkable and Birch Wood Vineyard should be known for not only their beautiful venue but most importantly, their impeccable service and knowledgeable and pleasant staff. They gave us a wedding better then we could have ever imagined and have been told by numerous guests that they too noticed the service and that it was "the best" wedding they have been to. Birch Wood Vineyards, we will never be able to thank you enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. We feel extremely fortunate to have worked with you and are thankful to look back for years to come and remember how big of an impact you had on one of the best days of our lives.

We have had SO many guests tell us it was the best wedding they had ever been to and the food was amazing as well. I couldn’t have been any happier with how everything went. If your looking for a venue don’t look any further. Book with birchwood and you do not have to worry about a thing!

sant. We had the pleasure of meeting with one of the wonderful coordinators, Amanda. She was amazing. She helped us with everything from picking the date, times, food, vendors, and really guided us in the wedding process which we had no clue about. She was always smiling and always made us feel special. The day of the wedding we had the absolute pleasure of having Scott and Kasia manage our wedding. They were impeccable. Everything that needed to be done was done. Every step was carefully thought out and they were right there with us and helped guide us. I got multiple guests commenting on how accommodating Scott and Kasia were. We cannot be more grateful to have had them there on our wedding day. The entire staff that worked our wedding that night were incredible. The bartenders and the waitstaff were amazing and always smiling. The food was spectacular!! We could not be happier and we were really amazed at the service and beauty of this venue. We had the best time and we kept hearing about how much fun everyone had, how delicious the food was, and how beautiful everything looked. Thank you Rue and Sallie for creating this space and filling it with the most amazing staff. We will be forever grateful. -Mr. and Mrs. Gaglione

ay of the wedding Kasia, Scott and Sarah (I believe) made this day perfect. The venue is stunningly beautiful and the food was amazing. Several guests have told us it was the best wedding food ever. From the moment we arrived the day before for the rehearsal through the morning after when they called us about a missing jacket and leftover food and cake, we were treated with first-class superior service. Birch Wood surpassed our expectations and then some. Thank you, Birch Wood for making my daughters dream wedding a reality.

An incredible fantastic experience as Birchwood Vineyards hosted my daughter’s wedding this past Saturday. (Nov. 11th) Everything went as planned and then some. Our experience with Amanda Ferdinando (Wedding and Event Planer) was larger-than-li...
fe. Initial meeting with her was so well planned. She offered various ideas and listened to ours. She planned everything flawlessly. The day of the wedding Kasia Condon (Event Manager) was there to help lead the way. Making our day so much easier so we could enjoy my daughter’s wedding. She was great to work with. General Manager Scott Benfield was always visible and making sure everything went as planned. The wedding had to be held indoors due to the cool weather. Birchwood set up the venue and guests were greeted by Scott. The venue with up lighting was a great added feature. After the ceremony we went into the Vineyard Room for a cocktail reception. The appetizers were plentiful and delicious. I really mean delicious. We opted for the wine barrel which is their own wine. Staff was so responsive while passing appetizers. We then proceeded into the Estate room where the main meal was served. Tables were elegant. Atmosphere was the tops especially with music and up lighting provided by Tommy Demers of Get Down Tonight Entertainment. All the guests raved about the food. Not a single person had a complaint. All said the food was so delicious. Cooked to perfection. Again staff was friendly and right on top of things. Sarah Woodbury Event Coordinator was there the whole time as with General Manager Scott. They packed up all the extra’s (card box, memory, box, posters, and other things) we brought in and actually placed them in my car. This experience was far above and beyond what I anticipated as a father of the bride. From the Bridal Suite to the Grooms Suite, the Vineyard, everything was spot on. My daughter and Son In-Law had the best time and so enjoyed the night. I highly recommend Birchwood Vineyards

ible. On my wedding day I pictured everyone especially the staff to make me feel welcome and excited because it’s the biggest day of your life! That was the complete opposite of how I felt. This woman made me feel so rushed and she seemed so miserable I can’t imagine her making any bride feel special. She left us alone for majority of the day which I preferred, but towards the end of the day when I was finishing getting ready she kept rushing us. It seemed to get chaotic for a reason I did not understand. We will be ready when I am ready, I am the bride. Everyone can wait for me. I knew we would be ok with time and we were running a little behind (what wedding doesn’t?) She put in my earrings for me, that’s how much I was rushed. I didn’t even have time to put my garter on. My hairdresser put in my veil and she didn’t even allow us to have time to pin it in. My veil fell out during the ceremony. Once we were doing pictures, the photographer told us we were half an hour ahead of time. You can imagine how frustrating that can be. When it was time for us to make our entrance (it was indoors so we were in the reception area taking photos) they had us all cram in between the woman’s and men’s bathroom area and I had made it clear that I did not want the cocktail hour guests to see us before we all made our entrance. You know how that goes, everyone starts to talk to you and it was just not the way I had planned it. I found it shocking they did not have a set plan seeing as they do weddings 4 days a week it seemed, but the woman with accent acted like I was the biggest inconvenience for wanting to not see all of the guests before we made our entrance. I felt like it was going to be less special. They brought us through the kitchen eventually when they realized how unhappy I was. That seemed like a big deal as well. Later on when cake was served, it was put in the back behind the dj booth and we were told by friends days later that they didn’t even know where the cake was and favors so majority of people didn’t get either!! We paid of a lot for the cake and that was aggravating. We only took home a little of the cake and I had a separate gluten and dairy free cake for myself and that somehow didn’t make it home with us at all. We had about 5 no shows and we told that woman in the first place we knew of 2 people who could not make it and that we would like to take home the meals that we had paid for. We did not receive any of these meals and all we brought home was a little cake. I sent them an email, informing them that I was not very happy with how my day went and was expecting that they would be sympathetic for their behavior and would like to improve their staff.. that’s not what happened. Basically told me they are sorry for how I felt and defended their employees. There was no real apology. After spending that much on a wedding there, it was a slap in the face. I made it clear in every meeting we had that I do not drink and have been sober for almost three years and in the response back, they asked me if I wanted to come and pick up a free bottle of wine on them. I was so disappointed and hope they don’t make anyone feel like I did.

heir venue and abilities to make our day as perfect as possible. Their connections with other services such as limo services, DJs, photographers, florists, and bakeries makes the entire event seamless and smooth while only worrying to make single payments to a single venue. They truly made this event absolutely effortless. On the day it self the staff ran like clockwork. Always pleasant, presentable, quick, and organized. Our wedding coordinator was a god send and this day truly would have been a mess without her. The food was fantastic, the venue was gorgeous, the grounds were well kept with many great photo opportunities. This venue is nothing short of gorgeous in their photos but please understand that even that does not do it justice. This location is absolutely stunning in person, too good to be true, a dream, or as some would say, exactly what you want on your wedding day. The staff puts in a tireless amount of effort to achieve perfection with every inch of these grounds, every square foot of the venue, and every plate served. This is done with an obvious and wonderful amount of passion and drive. Me and my wife had originally planned on doing a back yard wedding. It took months and months of constant planning to organize. It required working with separate vendors for flowers, cake, chairs, tents, bathrooms, catering, photos, a DJ, local parking, getting the cities approval, the list goes on and on and on. Long story short, the wedding was less than a month away, and a car hit me at 45 mph. Shattered most of the right side of my body. We had to re-plan an entire wedding from a hospital bed and have it done within 3 months. Birch wood did that. I love them with all my heart for that. You. Will. Not. Find. Better.
