I cannot possibly say enough great things about Grand View and the entire team there! We fell in love with this venue as soon as we saw it and knew it was the perfect place for our dream wedding. We met with Danielle to discuss a contract and m...
ake sure that everything we wanted included on our day was accounted for. She was so helpful in describing all of the options, and we were very impressed with how much was included in the cost, especially compared to other venues that we had seen...and the location is gorgeous! From there, we worked with Gina, who went beyond expectations in regards to helpfulness and overall communication, helping us navigate postponing our wedding due to the pandemic, and even handling a last minute decoration mix-up that I only realized the day of the rehearsal. She was so responsive to all of my emails and questions, no matter how trivial, and on the day of the wedding she had everything set up exactly as I imagined and made sure the day progressed flawlessly. She even kept me updated on the weather forecast for the wedding day after a very rainy rehearsal to make sure I did not stress about our outdoor ceremony! I can honestly say I was not worried about a thing on my wedding day, and this was all thanks to Gina (and her team of course!) All of our guests had such a great time, especially finally being able to let loose and celebrate after not being able to see each other in person for so long...and we received SO many compliments that night about how delicious the food was as well! Everything was beautiful, and I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day or wedding planning experience thanks to the Grand View team!

My husband and I had our wedding at Grand View almost a year ago and our friends and family still rave to us about the beauty of the venue and the attentiveness of the staff to this day. When we were looking at venues, nothing compared to the f...
eeling we got after visiting Grand View. From beginning to the end, Gina was on the ball with planning and helped make the process as stress free as possible. She always answered my questions in a timely manner and was so organized. Grand View is an absolutely beautiful location, but the service on top of that is what made it stand out to us. We have a lot of allergies in our families, but they were accommodated with meals that were safe for them to eat. The day of the wedding is typically stressful for most brides, but that was not the case for us because the team makes sure everything happens seamlessly and you are left to enjoy your day without worrying about anything else. My husband and I were busy walking around saying hello to guests when the meal was brought out, but the team was so attentive to our needs. They were constantly making sure we had enough water and made sure our meal was brought out fresh to us once we were done greeting our guests. They also kept everything on track time wise so we didn’t have to worry at all. Another thing that really stood out to us is that they cared for our wedding party as well. Appetizers were available to us throughout our pictures and the staff even made sure that our ring bearer, who was getting tired and hungry, was immediately given a snack upon his arrival. The “little things” like that along with the obvious perks such as the stunning location really made Grand View the best venue and a clear choice for us. I cannot recommend it enough!

Their experience and professionalism are evident after helping us work through some last minute hiccups. I’d also like to acknowledge the chef and servers who were fantastic.

I don't even know where to start here because there are too many amazing things to say!! My husband and I started looking at venues right after getting engaged, and Grand View was actually the first one we saw. I fell in love literally on the s...
pot, but we wanted to do our due diligence so we kept looking at a few other venues. NONE of them could hold a candle to Grand View. The space is truly GORGEOUS - with the option for 2 different outdoor ceremony spaces, an outdoor or indoor cocktail hour, and a great indoor ballroom space for the dinner/reception. Danielle was wonderful when we met with her initially - giving us a tour & helping us eventually sign the contract. At that point we were introduced to Gina, who was our main point of contact for the rest of our time working with Grand View. Gina was truly amazing - I am very "Type-A," but I've also never been in a wedding before until my own (!!), so I had a million questions along the way. She answered every single email in such a timely manner and was so, so helpful throughout the entire process. Planning a wedding can be STRESSFUL, but having the most organized and helpful team behind you at your venue can alleviate so much of that stress. We actually did not hire a wedding planner, and I don't regret that decision at all because of how "on it" Gina & the team at Grand View were. The day of the wedding was truly a dream - I did not feel an ounce of stress because I knew Gina & her team were handling everything behind the scenes. I even had a personal Bridal Attendant, Tatiana, who was WONDERFUL - she was on top of my every need, but was also just so funny and kind and the best presence to have by my side that night! I know this is a million words - but I hope this helps any future brides looking for a venue to know that they will be in the best possible hands at Grand View! My wedding was truly out of a movie and I could not be more grateful to Gina & team for everything they did to make my dream come true!

The Grand View is a hidden gem. Located in a small, quiet town on a private lake, the venue itself is quaint and picturesque. For many reasons, my husband and I chose this venue: flexibility with event coordination, great food/hospitality, and ...
perfect outdoor setting. There happened to be a hurricane the day of our wedding, but it did not stop us for taking GORGEOUS wedding portraits by the lake or stop the amazing GV staff from accommodating our situation.

Living in a small state like RI, We have seen every venue in the area. We wanted a place we have never been to before. When We found this venue, It was love at first sight. Danielle was awesome and worked with us to find a day and time that...
would work best for our budget. She even took into consideration the time sunset would take place on the day we decided on (which I never would have thought of). After our first visit we booked immediately. From there Gina took over and she was absolutely amazing!! I can’t commend her enough. You don’t have to say much for her to understand what you are envisioning for your special day. I had so many questions and concerns during the whole process, she always responded in a timely manner and never made me feel as if I was bothering her. ( if they don’t respond on the weekend it’s because they are giving all their attention to other bride/grooms on their big day). The food by chef Linda was amazing! The food was hot and fresh which is hard to do with 125 guests. I am not a high maintenance person what so ever but it was incredible to feel so special for a day. This place goes above and beyond to ensure your day goes exactly how you want it to go. Our wedding was over a month ago and we are still getting compliments on how beautiful everything was. I can’t wait to be back as a guest because I am recommending to everyone :)

Through pre-wedding planning meetings and the wedding weekend itself, Gina was professional, highly responsive, and accommodating. Anything and everything we asked about seemed to be a 'yes'.

Covid bride who had to postpone her wedding, Gina was able to answer my millions of questions in a very timely manner. She always responded to my emails within 24 hours and always offered to have a phone conversation, when we were unable to meet in person. She made herself available throughout the entire planning process and always kept me updated every time there was a change in restrictions due to Covid. When I finally made the decision to postpone my wedding a full year, she took the time to have a phone call to go over all of my options for future dates. From the very beginning, every time we had an in-person meeting, Gina was very organized, took notes, and provided me with checklists to make sure I wasn't forgetting anything I would want to remember on my big day. I really can't say enough great things about Gina and her team at Grand View. The food was delicious and many of my guests made it a point to tell me that it was the best wedding food they have ever had. Chef Linda is truly amazing. The menu options for food stations, appetizers, and entrees are not limited by any means. In fact, my husband and I had trouble narrowing down which ones we wanted to have at our wedding, because we loved so many of the food choices. The ballroom at Grand View is absolutely breathtaking. Besides the fact that the venue sits right on a beautiful lake, you have the venue to yourself for the entire day for only you and your guests to enjoy. It has acres of gorgeous grounds, perfect for so many different photo opportunities. My photographer and I had a great time exploring the grounds for all the perfect spots to take pictures. The grand ballroom has beautiful wood floors, gorgeous sparkling chandeliers and a huge dance floor. The bar area is very spacious and perfect for cocktail hour. Cocktail hour can also be expanded outside to the upper deck which overlooks the entire lake. After all of the stress and changes with Covid, Grand View's team of professionals made my wedding day happen seamlessly. The entire staff was extremely organized and attentive on the day of my wedding. The room was decorated beautifully with all of the details Gina and I worked on together at our final meeting. I would recommend Grand View to anyone who is looking for the perfect wedding venue.

The servers were excellent and kept the courses flowing through the night in order for us to get on the dance floor as quickly as possible.

She truly thought of everything and before we would even ask for something, she was there with whatever it was in hand, I swear she is incredible. She made sure we tried all of the food and that our drinks were taken care of at all times, she is a sweetheart! We truly cannot thank the Grand View enough! The team they have works together like family and it definitely came through. They 100% without a doubt always put the client first! Your special day is just as special to them as it is to you and they will do whatever it takes to create that for you. If you are wedding venue shopping and want to have the most beautiful day, as stress free as possible, stop your search here. The Grand View is the place to be. We truly cannot thank the team enough!

Officiant and groomsman catching COVID 4 days before the wedding? Gina answered the call at 730 am. Snow and 40 mph winds in April? No problem. We battled constantly changing covid rules but Gina made sure that I never felt like a ‘COVID bride’.

She not only helped us navigate postponing our wedding, but she did so with our best interests in mind. She cares about every couple that walks through GV's doors and it shows in every detail that she ensures is executed perfectly! Chef Linda's food is incredible and she was so accommodating with my pickiness (on top of food allergies!). While our wedding was smaller than we had originally planned for, the day was executed flawlessly and all of our guests felt safe with GV's COVID protocols in place. We cannot wait to plan our 5-year anniversary 'rager' at Grand View so that we can be back in the incredible space. GV is a hidden gem in Massachusetts and I will be singing Gina and the staff's praises to anyone who listens! THANK YOU GV for making our day perfect, even in the midst of all that is the 2020 craziness!

My husband and I got married at the Grand View on October 12, 2019... the entire experience was amazing. When we were looking for venues, Grand View was the 2nd venue we looked at, we had 4 other venues to look at that weekend. As soon as we go...
t to the venue, it spoke for itself... it was exactly what we were looking for and we cancelled our remaining tours. The venue is located on a beautiful lake, secluded (they only do one wedding a day), have a beautiful house you can rent for your friends/family, 2 stunning ceremony options (we chose the Bella Vista) and stunning reception ballroom. The entire Grand View team is amazing... they all talk to each other so it's seamless to talk multiple people. Some of the amazing people we worked with were Laura, Ashley, Gina, Linda (chef) and Felix. We did our food tasting with Linda who was amazing. She is beyond talented and her presentations are beautiful. She makes amazing dishes and she even made sushi for us! People have been raving about our food from the delicious entrees, sushi, chowder, late night snacks and salads. She also makes amazing chocolate covered strawberries with peppermint flakes... for someone that loves food... Linda makes the best! She accommodated the allergies, made great portions and food was cooked perfectly. Gina... she was our day of coordinator... she is a saint and is the absolute best at her job. She communicates quickly, explains everything, thinks of everything, and makes the couples feel like they're talking to friends. She is casual yet professional, her patience and attention to detail is amazing. She was organized, dotted every I and crossed every T, my wedding ran so smoothly. Everybody was amazed with how smoothly the wedding went, how she coordinated everything and how friendly she was with all the guests. As soon as I spoke to Gina, I knew my wedding would go flawlessly and I wouldn't have to worry about a thing... and she didn't disappoint! The rest of the staff was amazing, Felix coordinated the chalet as well things inside the ceremony... everything was perfect. We also had a lady who took care of just my husband and I during the wedding and she was so sweet. She made sure we had food in our suite, plenty of drinks and anything else we needed. I can not say enough good things about Grand View staff, venue appearance and food... I highly recommend the Grand View for a wedding.

on the grounds that can be rented as well~A unique idea for the bridal party and family for an overnight or a place to take photos too. We had our wedding reception here 33 years ago and it was so wonderful to see our son and new daughter-in-law have their special day here too. Made the trip to see what this place has to offer!

My husband and I got married at the Grand View on 9/23/16 and it was more amazing than I could have imagined! When looking at potential venues during our engagement this one stood out to me not only because my new in-laws were married there man...
y moons ago (when the venue looked drastically different!), but also because of it's beautiful view looking out over the water, and how gorgeous the entire place is, inside and out. We worked with Sharon as our wedding coordinator who helped us tailor our wedding package to ensure we were getting the most "bang for our buck." One thing I did like about having our wedding here was the fact that there are different wedding packages the choose from that took the hassle out of pulling in vendors from all over. Sharon allowed us to tailor the package to suit our own needs and wants- for example, the package we chose (which was the most basic package and still included more than we needed) included a canoli station from Gerados. We decided we did not want to have this, and were able to cross it off and allocate whatever dollar amount that would have cost towards something else. In our case, we nixed many items and put the funds towards beautiful flowers from Katydid, which helped to keep overall cost down and really bring my vision to life. The inside of the venue really is so grand and has a 1920's Great Gatsby feel to it. It's so beautiful that there is little need to bring in additional decor, it truly speaks for itself. I have received so many compliments about how beautiful the wedding was. Sharon was on point and was super helpful along the way, especially day of. We rented the chalet the night before the wedding for myself and my ladies to stay at and get ready at the next day. The chalet itself is gorgeous, tucked behind autumn trees with awesome views of the lake. One recommendation I do have would be for the chalet to come a little more equipped with certain things. Given that most people stay there for just a night or two, it would be helpful to have some pots and pans, dish soap, wash clothes, and more towels (things you wouldn't necessarily think to bring). Also wifi would be a helpful, great addition. Overall, I'm giving Grand View 5 stars because I don't think there is any reason not to when they surpassed my expectations! :)

Kevin and I got married at Grand View on September 10, 2016. The day was nothing short of amazing! We cannot say enough good things about Sharon- the main wedding coordinator. She was so on top of her game and made the day run so smoothly. ...
Besides our normal nervous jitters, she made us feel at ease and kept the night running without a hitch! The grounds at Grand View are impeccable. We would stop by every once in a while to see how the renovations were coming along. They did a beautiful job updating everything. We received numerous compliments from our guests saying that this was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. Thank you to Grand View, Sharon, her wonderful staff and the owner for allowing us to host our wedding at your beautiful venue. We will highly recommend you to anyone looking for a place to get married.

I attended a wedding here at the Grand View 2 weeks ago., The place is beautiful i'll give it that but on the other hand the food was less than desirable. The pale slab of chicken breast with some sort of sauce was tasteless cardboard.The rest ...
of the fare was no better. chicken i would say should be cooked and....not to leave this out, the chicken entree was chosen to be roasted! If you carefully plan out your wedding and pay big $$$$ details should be correct. I wouldn't recommend this venue to anyone and i wont be planning mine here. The view might be Grand but the food was not. Things people always remember are beautiful bride, place and food. Thats why i gave it a 2 star or else it would be a 1 star

Michael, We are terribly sorry the meal you had at a recent wedding at Grand View did not meet your expectations. We rarely, if ever receive a poor review, especially with regard to our food. I apologize for your experience. You are correct, p...
articularly with a wedding meal, a bride/groom expect a high level of performance, satisfaction and an overall superior experience on their special day. At Grand View, we mirror that sentiment and pride ourselves on our service of exceeding expectations at each opportunity and to ensure that our food quality and execution is top notch at every occasion. Anything less than that is unacceptable. I want you to know that we have taken the necessary internal steps to resolve the problems experienced at your event and I can assure you that will not happen again at Grand View. Once you enlightened us with your review, we immediately called the bride directly to receive her feedback and I am pleased that we made a valiant effort to right our wrong for her and her husband. She was gracious and kind and we remain sorry, as this experience is uncharacteristic of our business and we thank you for bringing it to our attention.

ay everything went smooth. When my busel came undone Sharon was right there with safety pins. Majority of our guest had previously been to a function at Grand View and couldn't believe it was the same place after the renovations. Two months later and everyone is still talking about how beautiful it was! All the women ended up doing a photo shoot in the bathroom and loved they could still watch everything happening on the dance floor.

We got married at Grand View in Mendon, MA. Let me tell you that it was worth every penny spent. Sharon, the day of coordinator, was fantastic and kept things moving, kept everyone on track and on time, and made my vision of decorations, decor,...
food, and everything come true. She has such good attention to detail and we couldn't have had the wedding of our dreams without her help. She was incredible to work with. Ahh and the grounds! When we first toured the venue, it was nice but could definitely use some updating. It seemed like a lot of work to do in less than a year when Sharon explained to us what the plans were. But they got it done in time, and the venue was stunning! We received so many compliments on how beautiful it was all night.

While searching for our wedding venue knew we wanted a gorgeous interior space with an equally beautiful outdoor spot to have our ceremony. At The Imperial Ballroom we got just that!! They've just recently finished up an extensive renovation pr...
oject that will take your breath away!! Every inch of their space has been beautifully updated. The minute your guests arrive they are treated to valet parking and ushered into their new cocktail room. From there they have the option of sitting by the grand piano, chatting at the cocktail tables or venturing out onto their huge deck that spans the length of the back of the building overlooking a beautiful lake. There's also a stone patio underneath with lots of additional seating for your guests to enjoy throughout the event. Their menu is so extensive that it's hard to choose but Sharon, the venues coordinator is so helpful and happy to offer you free tastings to help you decide. Sharon was so easy going and really had an important role in our wedding planning. She was always available to answer all our questions and offer ideas or make recommendations for other vendors we still needed. On our wedding day she handled everything, all the details and timelines, making sure we were ok, asking if we needed anything and even helping to pack up all our things at the end of the night and making multiple trips to load up our cars! She takes great pride in all her events hosted at the Ballroom and always has your best interest in mind. We were always greeted with a big hug, it was like planning a party with your best friend. In the end our day was perfect! The Ballroom was beautiful, our outdoor ceremony by the lake was stunning, and our guests have not stopped talking about how great the food was!! Don't let this venue slip by, take a ride and see for yourself, you won't be disappointed! Sharon is just amazing at what she does, and takes a little bit of the worry out of your day, we absolutely loved working with her! Thank you so much Sharon for a perfectly planned wedding day!! 💜 K&R 9.12.15

We went to see this place as a possible venue. It was absolutely GORGEOUS with an old charming feel and at a great value! It sits on a beautiful lake and the ballroom is very spacious. The ceiling was pretty with fabric and lights decorating it...
. Sharon is extremely friendly and was very hospitable. The food is also very delicious! The only reason we did not book this venue was because it was over an hour away from our family and we felt that it would be a transportation issue for many of our guests. If it was closer to home we would have booked this in a heart beat!

yriad. Money had been tough to come by in those days and I knew the idea of being able to afford a place that had the look of a Marriott or Hilton hotel I could only imagine what the price tag would be. Once I got my ring in March of '10 I sought out after a place that would provide three things 1) decor that would save me rental fees in lights and linens 2) An educated and professional staff 3) a place with a reasonable rental fee and/or a reasonably priced kitchen. The myriad has such high class, elegant, and upscale decor, the only thing that I wanted to get to "spruce" it up a little were chair covers. The tables come with table clothes and Sharon, the manager, has the ability together a vast array of colors and styles for a small additional charge. The menu is extensive, extremely reasonably priced and absolutely divine. The down payment system is extremely reasonable and there is no rental fee, but you do have to use their kitchen. I was given. A 500 dollar discount for booking a year ahead. I couldnt have been more pleased with my wedding day. Everything over exceeded my expectations and Sharon was like super woman pulling it all together. She is almost. Lke a wedding planner at no additional charge. If you are looking for a wedding hall in the Milford, Uxbridge area I would absolutely 100000000% recommend the Myriad ballroom. It is IMPOSSIBLE to have a bad wedding day with their staff behind you every step of the way. I would also ask for their vendor list* I had 180 people at my wedding and with a family style dinner with chicken and pork the ultimate cost was 5400.
