My husband and I got married at Grand View in August of 2026, and we couldn’t be happier that we chose this beautiful venue! The second we stepped onto the property, saw the view and met with our coordinator, we knew our wedding had to be there. The dining room is spacious, well-maintained, with large windows and an electric fireplace behind the sweetheart table. The name of the venue speaks for itself, the view is grand. You’ll be overlooking the scenic Nipmuc Pond with plenty of outdoor space to take in the sight. There is a multilevel patio with seating, fountains and even more space as you walk right up to the calm water. We had a long engagement, and Grand View was picked out for two years. During that time, the staff at Grand View kept in contact with us and made sure we were always updated. Our coordinators ended up switching a few times, but never were we lost in translation. Leading up to our big day, we worked primarily with Anna MacInnis, who helped us tremendously throughout our wedding planning process. Anna is personable, efficient, and genuinely wants everyone to have their dream wedding. It certainly shows in her execution. My husband and I mentioned once that we would love to have time at cocktail hour. Sure enough, on our wedding day, she pulled some strings, kept our guests occupied with drinks while pushing back the cocktail hour so we could attend after taking pictures. And, to top it all off, this ended up extending the rest of our wedding. During dinner, they never brought out any of our courses until we were seated, to make sure they were not cold/melted. Of course, everyone's wedding will be different but these are the types of details Anna and the Grand View staff pay attention to. Their ability to be flexible and go with the flow really made our day. The wedding package that they offer is exceptional. Since it is a large venue they have a “minimum” 125 guests that you must reach in monetary value. However, they allow a wide variety of add ons if you are under that number of guests/monetary value. We had roughly 100 guests and were able to add on a champagne wall, late night snacks, extra time and more. Do not feel like you need to have a huge wedding to book at Grand View. You get to choose all of your food, passed drinks and signature cocktails throughout the night. The food was phenomenal, everyone complimented the lobster roll h'ordeuvres. We do not have a single regret with Grand View and would 100% recommend anyone to book no matter the wedding experience you’re looking for.

Beautiful venue, incredible staff. We booked Grand View as our wedding venue, and we are SO happy we did. Our wedding was just last week and it was absolutely perfect!! The staff went above and beyond for us, and the venue itself is stunning. The grounds are so nice and the view over the lake is magical, and the two outdoor ceremony sites - Bella Vista overlooking the water and the sone-pillared Terraza - both make for incredible photos. The coordinator we worked with, Tatiana, really pulled out all the stops for us. Y'all, I was a lot, I always had SO MANY QUESTIONS for her - I sent her email after email after email for MONTHS - and she answered everything and more, always making sure I had all the information I needed and wanted to make my wedding planning go smoothly! Not to mention, Tatiana is so wonderful to work with - she's friendly and nice and so easy to talk to, and it was always a pleasure to see her. The Chef did an incredible job too! We had some very specific requests - an all-vegan wedding with Jamaican food influences - and Chef Linda whipped up a FEAST! She's a wizard. Everything was delicious, and the Chef was genuinely happy to work with our requests! Our guests loved the food too! My day-of bridal attendant, Mackenna, was also absolutely lovely. She was always there when I needed her, bringing me anything I could need on the day itself when I was too overwhelmed with emotion, too busy taking photos or getting ready or talking to guests, or too lost in the moment to think about things like water or food. She kept us on schedule and made sure we always knew what was happening so we could be where we needed to be, and it was really such a relief to have her around - she made me feel like I could let go of so much of the stress I might otherwise have carried, and she made sure I could really enjoy the day. The Grand View staff did so much for us to create the wedding we envisioned, down to every little detail, every silly question, every additional last-minute request we threw at them. The reviews from our guests were unanimous: everyone loved the venue. We are so happy we chose to get married here. Tatiana, Mackenna, Chef Linda, and everyone at Grand View - thank you again for everything. It was a perfect day, at a perfect location, for the perfect wedding. 10/10 would get married there again (to the same husband!!! hehe) <3
