Five Bridge Inn

the team at Five Bridge made everything easy and amazing for our day. My bridesmaids and I got to the venue early on the morning of the wedding to use the hair and makeup suite to get ready. This made the day simple and smooth. The groomsman and my husband used a different suite to get ready on the morning of the wedding. They hung out, played poker, and got dressed on the property. This made the morning relaxed and fun. Every angle at the venue gave us fantastic pictures. Our reception was in the Barn on Five Bridge Inns and it was the perfect combination of both my husband and my personality. From the things hanging on the walls to the comfortable and fun outdoor firepit, it was truely amazing and a one of a kind experience that we would recommend to anyone looking to have their marriage ceremony there!

ent, and the rehearsal dinner in the barn the night before. Anne and James were phenomenal and we wanted for nothing our entire stay/wedding. Highly -highly- recommend this venue.

g the reception was amazing for me and my husband as well as the bridal party. Also the wedding coordinator that they assigned to us Ellen, was super kind and helpful . I highly recommend this venue to anyone. Our cousin recently got engaged and loved our wedding so much they’re looking into getting married here as well .

ginal deposit despite postponing by a year because of covid. Possibly the best part was that everything was on site: plenty of space to get ready in the morning, amazing grounds for photos, afterparty at one of the bonfire pits, and we stayed in the inn on-site, meaning that we didn't have to worry about transit at all. The off-season deal was also a steal- it did mean that certain things were required (like using their preferred caterer), but it was a great bargain given everything that it included, and it meant that all the pieces fit seamlessly.

l dinner by the pool an that was incredible also. After having such a fun filled two days it was fantastic to end it with a relaxing couple of hours by the fire with some smores an brick oven pizza. All I can say is 5 stars for sure an you won't be disappointed at all.

h Sonya who gave us the full tour of the Inn and grounds. We fell in love. Then Covid hit and our big day had to be pushed. I contacted James, he was incredibly supportive and accommodating in finding us a new date for 2021. Our big day happened a few weeks ago now, and between Ann continually checking in to make sure we were all set and had everything we needed, to all our vendors doing an incredible job, everything was perfect. The grounds at Five Bridge Inn are stunning. You can go from the rustic farm feeling of the barn to upscale beauty of the tent. The salon to get ready is an amazing space and gets you excited to begin your day! Then, you get up to the rooms and it is classic New England Inn vibes. We were married under the wedding pavilion next to the tent, had cocktail hour by the pool and our reception in the tent. After our long day, we were able to go change up into comfy clothes and spend the rest of the night by the bonfire with our closest friends and family. We woke the next day to a delicious spread of breakfast foods before we departed. If you are looking for a venue that has it all--this is the place! Thank you Messenger Family for your hospitality! We hope to be back in the future for other celebrations!

helped every step of the way! She physically helped me move tables and chairs. The covered area by the pool looked so beautiful for the rehearsal party. The ceremony was under the pavilion out side of the tent. The crystal chandeliers stain glass windows, just beautiful! It felt like you were in chapel! The tent is beautiful! The vintage tables and sweet heart looked so pretty! We decorated with gold frames and candleholders . The large dance floor is awesome! The after party by the fire pit was amazing! Five Bridge staff makes the pizza. So good!! The bride and groom, parents and siblings stayed at the Inn. The rooms are beautiful and very clean. The next morning we enjoyed breakfast together. It was a great way to end the weekend! We are all so happy with how the wedding turned out!

Our guests can’t stop talking about how beautiful the venue is and I couldn’t agree any more. So much is included in the rental ans it’s definitely worth your money! Highly recommend

then, COVID hit. We had to move our ceremony and reception to the tent area. But Ann and her team did not stop working until our dream wedding came true! They were all amazing and very accommodating. Words cannot express how much I appreciate their hard work. I am so grateful. Also, my guests could not stop talking about how gorgeous the property was! Plus, they supply a fire after your reception so you can keep the party going until 1 am! My family and friends had such a great time. The morning after your wedding, you and your guests staying at the inn are provided a homemade breakfast, cooked by Ann herself. It was so delicious! I highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a night to remember for the rest of their lives. Thank you!!!

acks every step of the way. They helped us transition everything so we could have it in the tent and at the birch. James was there to listen to me cry multiple times over the phone! He never gave up the faith and they fought HARD to make sure we would have a safe and fun wedding. When the big day finally came, Ann and her family opened their arms to us and accepted us into their inn as if we were a part of their family. We have never stayed somewhere as magical! It wasn't just the "fancyness". It was the little things. The fact that there are shampoos in the showers waiting for the bride and guests.. there are snacks for you.. she COOKS for you.. you can swim..you can have YOUR DOG.. the list goes on and on. When it was time to walk down the aisle, Ann helped me fluff out my dress train and I will never forget it. At night, they lit us a huge fire and even helped organize our items! I will never forget this place & these incredible people. For the small price you get a lifetime of memories. Thank you Five Bridge for making my fairy tale come true. -Ashley & Eric Carvalho

to the beautifully decorated tent reception, and the cozy bonfire that is lit at the end of the night to keep the party going! Not to mention the cute Llamas that live on site! We had an amazing wedding and an amazing day of coordinator, Sonya, who kept contact with all vendors and helped to make sure the day went perfectly! Sleeping at the inn is such a bonus and the breakfast in the morning was the perfect way to start our first day as husband and wife!

r was so friendly, and treated us all like her own family. Our wedding coordinator was Sonya Heroux. As the mother of the bride I could have never done this without her. She was there every step of the way. The day of the wedding she made all of things my daughter wanted come to life in a way that was indescribable. She took all the stress of of everyone and did such an amazing job. If you are planning a wedding and need a venue I would highly recommend The Five Bridge Inn as well as Sonya for your coordinator. Thank you so much to everyone there for making this the very best day for my baby girl❤️

irst visit, to the phone calls, the text messages, the multiple site-visits, Ann Messenger, James, Jay, Mike, Adrianna, Sonya, and so many others cared for us during our weekend. The value of this experience is unparalleled. First, this venue is fantastic because for an INSANELY LOW PRICE, you have access to the grounds for your rehearsal dinner and the staff is available to talk you through your ceremony. Then, before your wedding, you have the opportunity to get ready in the BYOB "hair and make-up suite" all day. Our ceremony was at 4:00, and after getting ready, Ann and her staff helped us find a place for our first look. The cocktail hour went off without a hitch, thanks to her experienced staff and the magical Ralph's catering team (see our review for them!). Ann and her team were there every step of the way- even down to helping us open the doors for our surprise introduction! As our reception was wrapping up, the staff lit us a bonfire for the after party and we were able to hang out with 50+ of our closest friends and guests. THIS IS NOT a venue that is timed to only give you the traditional "five hours." This is a celebration. Around 1:00 am, we put out the fire and (INCLUDED) in our small fee was gorgeous sleeping accommodations for 14 people in Five Bridge Inn!!! The next morning Ann cooked us a delicious brunch with homemade quiche with eggs laid on her farm! It doesn't get much more farm to table than that (And have you seen the llama's and alpaca's she has?). To top everything off, our 14 guests got to spend the day lounging by her pool as we unwound from an amazing evening and wedding the night before! In addition to all of this, there were an amazing number of small touches that blew us out of the water: * We were worried about transporting some older family members, so Ann had a golf cart standing by to transport them if needed. * The staff literally moved tables for us at the last minute to accommodate extra picture frames on our memory table. * Ann stopped us throughout the day to encourage us to eat and drink and she brought us little snacks after the ceremony. * The couple from the wedding before us left flowers and greenery behind. Ann made sure to save it, text us pictures and helped us build beautiful centerpieces with the extras to help us save on costs. Additionally Ann has a shed FULL of wedding decorations that other couples have left behind and she kept thinking of little extras for us including: putting out an "unplugged" wedding sign, extra tissues, bug spray, sunscreen, table numbers, arches, easels, card boxes, tool, the list goes on and on!!! * As members of the LGBTQ community, and with lots of queer guests, this venue raised us up with rainbow joy, putting out rainbow and trans flags, and letting us create non-gendered bathrooms. * We were worried it might rain and with such a huge party, it was important to us that a totally outdoor venue would have a great rain plan. While we didn't get a single drop of rain, Ann had hundreds of umbrellas lined up and staff ready to go! Is there anything else to say? I could go on and on! Comment on this post if you want more details and I'm happy to PM you!

r email, Ann the owner, got back to me immediately. Within two minutes of our tour, my wife and I knew this was the place for us. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and meticulous. A classic New England landscape. Between the massive tent, barn, Inn, covered cocktail hour area, herb garden, multiple ceremony sites, ALPACAS, Five Bridge Inn has EVERYTHING you need. The staff was so accommodating. Ann said we could use whatever vendors we want, but offered the vendors they have worked with in the past. We went with their preferred caterer, Ralph's Catering, which was outstanding. Our day-of coordinator, Sonya, works out of Five Bridge and was the absolute best. During the whole day, she had everything under control and kept us on schedule throughout. We also had our rehearsal dinner in the barn and it was fantastic. I could go on and on about how great this place is, but you get the point. All of our guests raved about how great of a venue it is, and they are right. It is the best. I wish we could restart the wedding over. It was the most fun possible and I would recommend it over and over and no place else. Book your wedding here!

n (decorated by Event Designs By Lisa), the campfire/brick oven pizza party, to the homemade breakfast served the next morning- this venue went above and beyond anything we could have expected. Having the grounds for 24 hours is one of many unique features that set this venue out from all others. Rain or shine, this beautifully developed venue will keep you and your guest comfortable and happy (many other venues we looked at didn't have good alternatives for poor weather conditions). I would also recommend working with wedding coordinator Sonya, she is highly talented at what she does! Lastly, another one of my favorite features here are the adorable llamas (and doggo Chippy)! We have gotten so many compliments from our guests stating that this was one of the best weddings they have been too! Thank you Ann and everyone at Five Bridge Inn- you all helped make our wedding day we will never forget!

dding day to follow. The grounds are so well cared for and have so many options for decorating and alternative quiet seating for guests during the reception. The wedding party and guests enjoyed the extended celebration of having a fire pit for roasting smore's and a delicious breakfast the following morning. The staff were so very personal and accommodating from the moment we first looked at the site until we packed up to leave the day after the wedding. It was truly worth the extra cost for a 24 hour Inn experience and I would highly recommend considering this venue.

hey are there every step of the way, making sure that you are satisfied and helping your vendors to ensure the event is running smoothing. I can't express enough how helpful they were in relieving a lot of stress! We were married on a Friday, so we had the option of booking to stay Thursday night as well for rehearsal dinner. This was beyond helpful and made the day-of so much less hectic. We had already begun setting up, and all of our decor, outfits, etc. were already there. They let us use their grill and other amenities for the dinner, and we followed it with a bonfire. A perfect way to de-stress the night before your big day! They are pet friendly, so our dog also got (almost) free-range of the entire property.. she was thrilled!! There are no words to describe our experience here, and will continue to recommend it again and again.

ways answered promptly. The grounds and venue were pristine. We also loved that there was no curfew so we were able to stay up around the fire late into the night. There is also room for you and some of your guests to stay at the inn overnight and enjoy breakfast in the morning. And the animals are awesome:) Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a fun, beautiful, outdoor venue.

lowing with compliments on the beautiful facility and great time they had. From the beginning stages of planning, Ann and staff have all the bases covered. Ann and Harold truly want your day to be perfect and even though they do this day in and day out, you will feel as your day is the most important thing to them. They can recommend the best vendors for all details of your event and you can trust their advice. Two of the greatest assets of Five Bridge Inn are its’ versatility and privacy. Whatever theme or mood you want to convey in your big day can be accomplished through using the on-site designer Lisa. And using the day of wedding coordinator Sonya will keep your day running smoothly and take away all stress and allow you to truly enjoy every minute of your wedding day. We highly recommend Five Bridge Inn for your best day ever!

ou to have the best day of your life. The venue itself is stunning. So much greenery, so many options for photos!. Also what a unique idea to have your after party right at the venue with a fire pit and brick oven pizza! Such a hit.

I made it happen. Rain was in our forecast but we had zero worries about it since the rain plan is equally as beautiful. Thankfully, the weather held out and all of our guests enjoyed every corner of the venue! I couldn't stop saying, "this is even more beautiful than I imagined!" during the day when our vision finally was all together in reality. During our reception a big mishap (our fault) was looming and there seemed to be an impending disaster. When we found Harold & Ann, they took care of it immediately and no one knew any different. It was incredible. Additionally, the Inn itself if just the best. It is so clean and well-spaced out. Our wedding party was blown away. Five Bridge is a perfect venue to suite any taste. Our guests are still in awe and we are continuing to receive compliments, and I imagine they'll continue for a long time. I can't say enough great things about FBI. If you want a worry-free day, do not hesitate and book them now!

it is just welcoming!! When you stay at the Inn you feel like family ... the staff at the inn is Fanominal!!!! I’m so happy we made our forever memories at FIve Bridge Inn!!!
