Bournedale Function Facility

h our friends and family. My guests are still raving about the place and the FOOD...omg the food was absolutely amazing. This place is definately a hidden gem worth checking out.

ork with. We could not have asked for a better wedding venue, everything was just perfect! Thank you so much Bournedale, you are truly amazing!

ing and our guests were nothing but impressed. I highly highly recommend checking out Bournedale! Thank you for everything!! - The Mansfields

ee our vision. Darin will make sure your day goes so smoothly! If anything went wrong, I have no idea because he is just that good. He also is so reassuring throughout the whole day. Could not recommend this place more. The venue was absolutely beautiful and the overnight stay is a must! We had a bonfire after and got pizza delivered and the guests that stayed over had so much fun! The brunch the morning after was also amazing. Such good food, good staff, and a wonderful venue overall. Thanks for all you do Darin and the Bournedale staff!

. The food was SO good - I highly recommend the Mac & cheese bar! Darin even made sure I ate. The cabins & houses were a hit with all of our guests. The golf carts were a major plus! Especially after dancing all night. It was so fun to be able to continue to party with everyone by the fire pit after the reception. We had a very nice breakfast with everyone the next morning. It was so nice to be able to relax, hang out by the pond & in the indoor pool/hot tub with all of our friends & family before leaving. The icing on the cake was that we got to have our dog enjoy the day with us! It was truly the best day ever, I wish I could live it over again - thank you so much Darin, Robin & the Bournedale staff! - The Levaggis

ride) felt confident through the entire planning process because of their knowledgeable support and kind natured advice throughout the process. First- the location. Gorgeous picturesque pond and grass ceremony area, perfect for photos. A beautiful, clean, indoor reception space flooded with natural light, dancefloor, conversation alcoves, and a large wrap around deck overlooking the pond. A perfect space for letting loose on the dancefloor, having a friendly conversation, or stealing away for a moment on the porch to take in the scene. Second- the food. Oh my goodness, the FOOD was INCREDIBLE! We received many complements throughout the night, but the restaurant quality food was absolutely raved about. A really thoughtful touch- during the meal the event staff served my husband and myself our meals, and continuously checked in on us for food/drink refills. We were able to sit and enjoy our meal with our families. Third- the staff. You will never find a venue with more caring, fun people working to make your day special. Darin & Wendy truly know exactly how to run a wedding smoothly. Throughout the night, various staff asked me how I was feeling and at every turn I realized I was feeling relaxed and truly enjoying the fun of our day. Finally- the afterparty/overnight. This makes the venue such a unique gem. After the reception, everyone changed into comfy clothes and regrouped at the firepit overlooking the pond. We brought s'mores supplies and ordered pizza. A family member brought their telescope so we could look at the moon & stars. If it had rained, there was a really fun game room we could have used instead- this wouldn't have been a let down. The overnight cabins were spacious and had lots of different sleeping arrangements possible- we were able to give every guest couple their own cabin which everyone loved! The buffet breakfast the next morning is the same great quality as the previous night. When you are planning a wedding there are many decisions to make. I've been described as "laid back" throughout the planning process, and I attribute so much of that to Bournedale. Hiring Bournedale was the best decision we made because it was more than just a venue- it was a beautiful location, fantastic food, a smooth running day, a wedding staff that goes above and beyond, and a fun, unique and safe on-premise afterparty/ overnight. My 3 year old nephew said it best: "Can we get married again tomorrow?!"

staff is absolutely amazing and attentive! The entire planning process was seamless, and Darin was always a phone call away to answer any questions that came up. From our first meeting at Bournedale Function Facility (Darin) our experience was amazing. As a nervous mom trying to make sure my daughter’s wedding was everything she envisioned, Darin eased my mind constantly with my many emails, texts and questions. As fast as I sent him emails, he was there with in minutes to answer all my questions and help me with decisions we had to make. My daughter and her fiancé’s wedding day was amazing! I certainly gave the staff a lot to do with all the decorations and table set ups, but when I walked into that hall it was incredible to see how beautiful it was. Darin was there every minute to help us to make sure that everything ran extremely smooth throughout the day. I had so many compliments on his staff from our guests and how they wished every wedding they went to were like this. My daughter’s wedding day was even better than I had envisioned. Thanks to Darin and his staff, they are so organized and professional that you wouldn’t even need a wedding planner. Another thing to mention is that the food was delicious! Everyone raved about the food and how fast the bar service was, the line was constantly moving, and you had a drink within minutes! The after party at the firepit was so much fun! Even if it begins to down pour, there is so much to do within the recreation hall or spending time in each other’s cabins. I would not change one minute of that day, it was more perfect than I could have ever imagined, and I wish we could do it all again! If you are looking for a venue, where you will be treated like kings and queens, delicious food and an absolute amazing time, look no further because this is your place to pick! THANK YOU Bournedale!

e rescheduled 3 times with our original venue to find out later that they closed. Wedding planning was beginning to become more of a chore than it was fun until we met Darin and found the Bournedale facility. I could write a never ending review for this place but i will do my best to summarize…. The location is unbelievable and the experience is extremely unique. The ceremony was right on the water followed by boat rides during the cocktail hour. It has an indoor and outdoor space with tons of windows so all of our guests felt safe. The food is delicious and most importantly the staff were the friendliest staff I have ever encountered. They do weddings all weekend every weekend and still some how manage to have a smile on their face and made us feel so special. They set everything up, took everything down and were extremely accommodating. Darin and team made the stress of planning soooo much less stressful. We had more than half of our guests stay over and enjoy the bonfire to continue the party. I keep getting messages from people saying how much fun they had and how impressed they were with the dinner and breakfast!! I’m so sad it’s over ( seriously every time I think about Saturday I can’t stop tearing up) but so happy we have this perfect memory to remember for the rest of our lives. Thank you Darin and Bournedale for making our wedding dreams come true. <3

The staff is incredible, the food is incredible, the mood and energy is perfect. The bonfire, boat ride and local amenities are unbeatable. Not to mention the setting on the Pond is perfect for pictures and relaxing on shore. Guests can stay right on site if they like, and everything is provided for you. Would recommend 100% to anyone in the area who is planning their wedding. Every one of our guests who commented agreed that this was the best, most fun, most laid back, easiest wedding they had ever been to.

Darin and his staff were so helpful, accommodating, and understanding as we tried to navigate an incredibly stressful time. We ended up postponing just once, but everything else was perfect beyond words. The location is beautiful, the staff was so helpful and friendly, and the venue as a whole was the perfect atmosphere that my husband and I dreamed of. This venue is truly a steal for the location, AMAZING FOOD, and personal care that you get as a client. Our guests slept in the cabins and cottages on-site for a low cost that beat a Plymouth hotel any day, and our after-party was a wild and crazy time. Our friends and family are still talking about it as "the best wedding of all time" and "adult summer camp." It's so hard for me to put into words how much this staff means to me. I wish I could do it all over again. I wish I could give 500 stars. Darin and Bournedale, thank you so much for making my dreams come true.

absolutely amazing. He was so patient and answered all our questions! Fast forward to this year when we get the go ahead that we will have our wedding, we were ecstatic! Darin and his staff did EVERYTHING! I picked all my decorations and dropped them off before our big day and all we had to do on our big day was getting ready and enjoy! Not only is the facility perfect with the houses/cabins to get ready and stay over in after partying all night but the food was out of this world delicious! I would recommend this beautiful venue to all brides!

beautiful natural setting, Bournedale is the place to be. The houses where the guests stay were much nicer than any hotel. The cabins were also available to stay in. Darin, the coordinator, was exceptional at his job. He made everything so laid back, yet at the same time was receptive to any questions and requests we had. Everything went perfect. The staff was great as well. Having the whole camp to yourself for the day and overnight makes you feel like a kid again and you and your guests will have a good time. The food and drinks were also excellent. The after party and the bonfire, located on the shore of the lake, was a one of a kind wedding experience. If you are thinking about having your wedding at a location with an outdoors/camp vibe definitely consider having it at Bournedale! We could not have imagined a better venue.

absolutely perfect. The weater wasn't the best, but my coordinator Darin made it work for us, and we didn't even notice the weather; they were all so accomodating. we always wanted a low key, casual wedding that focused on our love, and Bournedale delivered. If you are looking for a venue without the common stuffy wedding vibes, you have come to the right place! You even have the option to stay over, which we did and were able to have breakfast with our guests in the morning! Check them out, you won't be disappointed!!

I was hoping for and more. It's such a beautiful and fun place and the food is excellent. Thank you to Darin and the rest of the staff for making our day so special.

e had a blast!

hs leading up to our wedding. He answered all of our questions in a timely manner, and would offer advice when we asked for his recommendations. He has several years of experience running weddings at Bournedale, and it shows. We were so lucky to have perfect weather when we got married, so our guests were able to go out on the pontoon boat during cocktail hour (which they loved), and we were able to have the bonfire afterparty as well. Everyone loved the food and the Bournedale staff made sure my husband and I got our meals and drinks, since there's so much going on. We had close family and the wedding party stay overnight in the houses on the property (where we were able to get ready as well). That was another main reason we chose Bournedale. We had several families traveling from far-away states, that having them stay on the venue property gave them one less thing to worry about. If you're looking for a venue with a beautiful water view, lodging options on-site, great/dependable staff, and delicious food, this is your place! Not to mention the price is so much more reasonable than other New England venues we looked at.

nty-four hours without costing an astromical amount. Upon meeting Darin, I knew this place was it. Darin is laid back, and extremely professional. His communication skills and ways to explain everything sounded so effortless. He was great in communicating via e-mail and never left any questions unanswered. He then texted and called come closer to the date. His colleague and event coordinator Robin, made her work of decorating and being readily available the day of so seamless. The chef was extremely professional, and the menu was filled with numerous selections. The mashed potato bar was a huge hit! And our guests raved about both the passed hors d'oeuvres and buffet. Having a brunch buffet the morning after was also a very nice perk, as many wedding venues do not offer this. It was a great ending to the weekend. The staff of Bournedale from Darin and Robin, to the chef and kitchen staff, bar and waitstaff were professional and so welcoming. There was a warmth of this place that is tough to find elsewhere. The grounds itself is so picturesque. We never cared much about the season we got married in nor did we have a specific date or month in mind, but ended up so happy we chose the date we did as the foliage was in full bloom and made for great pictures. From the moment the guests arrive, they are chauffeured to the ceremony location in a golf cart, and the golf carts are readily available throughout the night for guests. Our reception ended with a bonfire complete with S’mores and a late night pizza delivery. Also, come late night, it is BYOB! Our guests loved this option. We highly recommend Bournedale Campground, and would a thousand times over. We cannot thank the staff of Bournedale enough for their professionalism, kindness and courtesy.

the experience might be like. A friend from high school had her wedding at Bournedale and highly recommended it, so I had my sister go take a tour and FaceTime us. From that moment on, we felt blessed to have found Bournedale - and that feeling has only grown throughout the planning process and now as we reflect on our amazing wedding. Every aspect of Bournedale is perfect: + The location? GORGEOUS in all seasons. We got married in November and even with bare trees, it felt like a magical location on the lake. + The value? Insane. I'm still sort of in shock at the experience we had for what we paid. Bournedale was the most affordable location in the area and it offered a million more things for that price. + The coordinator, Darin? Invaluable. He absolutely made the day. I can't say enough about my appreciation and love for Darin. He is MEANT for this kind of work. He has a calm, relaxed demeanor and yet has every little detail 100% covered. He is thoughtful, honest, and kind, and I was so, so grateful to be able to work with him for this wedding. + The food? Insanely good. Like, actually. I know people always say how they had people tell them the food was good afterwards, but my friends are RAVING. Everything was perfect and delicious and like a meal you would have at a really nice restaurant. The variety was awesome, and the chef is just the sweetest person. He accommodated not just your regular dietary restrictions but more unique ones with a smile, making every single one of our guests feel welcome. I ate at the wedding (Darin and Robin, another coordinator, made sure we did!!), and I still regret not eating more haha! + The experience? Where else can you have a beautiful ceremony on a lake, cocktail hour, an incredible dinner, super fun dancing, a bonfire with marshmallow roasting, an afterparty, AND brunch?! I can't tell you how much fun this was. I've never been to another wedding like it. I was pretty overwhelmed by the prospect of a wedding, and this actually made it so much better - we had so many opportunities to connect with our friends and family in a relaxed way, and there was much less pressure knowing we'd see folks at the afterparty and at brunch. Most of our guests were from out of town, and if this is true for you, you absolutely need to pick Bournedale. + The staff? Genuinely kind, wonderful, helpful, loving people - every last one. It truly feels like a family-run establishment. Everyone from Arnie, the owner, to the coordinators, to the kitchen staff, to the great guys who drove us around in golf carts all night long were just the sweetest, loveliest people. I can't express my gratitude to them all enough for making us feel so welcomed and supported. Truly, there is nowhere else like Bournedale. I can't express how over the moon I am with the experience we had there. It's hard to imagine why anyone in Massachusetts or the surrounding area would ever plan a wedding anywhere else when Bournedale is an option. I am going to cherish my time there forever -- my now husband and I are already planning to send our future kids to camp there and want to rent it out again in the future for an anniversary or family celebration!

e had a blast! Food was delicious, venue was setjust how I’d envisioned it and everyone had a blast enjoying pizza and s’mores around the bonfire after!!!

wedding there a few summers ago, and we knew that when our day came, it would be a beautiful place to get married! Darin, the head of the facility, was incredible to work with from day one. He was extremely flexible when it came to meeting in person, and I can’t even tell you how many emails I sent with millions of questions! He answered each one promptly and was beyond helpful when it came to planning for our big day! We got a great deal booking out of season and on a holiday weekend, we had planned to have it on Sunday to get the Monday holiday rate, but Darin gave us the Saturday for the same price! The actual day was a dream. I was very nervous that something would go wrong, as all brides are, but everything we planned, every little detail, came out perfectly! Darin and Robin were amazing the entire night and we were able to have our dream ceremony outside in the middle of November. The sun was shining and Darin addressed our guests beforehand to let them know in a very professional and genuine way that even though it would be a little chilly, we dreamed of our ceremony outdoors and we would have some amazing photographs. The entire night ran so smoothly but of course, flew by! I didn’t even make it around to see the dessert table and guest book and place cards and all those details, but the pictures and compliments from guests said it all!! But out of all the compliments we got, the food got the most!! People had amazing things to say about the food, and that was VERY important to us! We had the roast beef carving station, baked stuffed haddock, and we added on the pasta station, which was the biggest hit of all! We had cupcakes and Italian pastries for dessert, and they did a fabulous job getting everything set up beautifully and in a great time frame. No one left hungry, that’s for sure!! All in all, my husband and I could not be happier with our wedding day. The venue was absolutely perfect, and we are forever grateful of Darin and the entire staff of Bournedale Function Facility!!

we forgot that it was raining and windy outside. The guest kept complimenting on the food and the venue itself. telling us this was the best wedding they have been to in a long time. Thank you so much for making our wedding day more than amazing!

bsolutely wonderful. I can’t recommend them enough. We didn’t have to worry about a thing. All our guests raved about the food, service and overall experience. We had so many people tell us it was the best wedding they ever went to. Leading up to the “big day”, I always heard time and time again “Something will go wrong…but don’t sweat it, cause it will all be ok and no one will notice”. Well, I can honestly say, nothing went wrong and that is because of the entire team at Bournedale.
