Granite Links

look real! They also couldn't believe how amazing the service was, and how delicious the food was at cocktail hour and reception. We couldn't have felt more comfortable there, and never had to worry about anything, as our bridal attendant did everything, from getting us food and drinks, to letting everyone know when they needed to sit for speeches! Again, we couldn't be happier that we celebrated our wedding at Granite Links!

hing was just phenomenal. It truly was the best day of my life and my guests were so impressed with the venue!

was just amazing. She was with me all day catering to our every need. She insured that my Husband and I were taken care of first, and that our parents and bridal party were happy. I would have been much more stressed out and anxious had it not been for these two ladies! I highly recommend this venue!

y cocktail vendor and did a generally wonderful job coordinating everything. The reception went perfectly (everything was on time, service was excellent, guests were happy etc). We had a rain plan in place (which was lucky, as it did rain at the start). The food was phenomenal (guests are still raving) and the team made sure the wedding party did not miss out on the cocktail hour nibbles (while we were having photos taken). Definitely recommend!

ance, scenic views of Boston, and unbelievably affordable costs in comparison to other venues. It was rainy and foggy on my wedding day, but the venue was still beautiful. Everyone from Linda, to the bridal attendant, Food/Beverage staff were so patient and kind. They work with brides with every budget to make sure you have the wedding you want. I can't recommend this place enough. Oh and the food was delicious!

planning our wedding with us, and she was able to offer such expertise on having a successful day and choosing the best vendors in the area. Not only were the wedding planning and hosting staff incredibly helpful, the staff in the Tavern and the Crossing Nines patio were all so pleasant on any of the occasions we visited for. Our tasting was so comprehensive and accommodating, and the food for any event including both the rehearsal dinner and wedding itself was incredible. I couldn't be happier that we chose Granite Links for our wedding, thank you Sara and Julie for helping to make our day so perfect!

Granite Links. We had chosen Granite Links as our vendor several months in advance (March, I think). We were immediately hooked up with Linda Blackmore the Senior Sales Manager and event coordinator who would help us plan our entire event. Linda was absolutely fantastic--she knows her stuff, is right to the point with everything, and has excellent suggestions re: vendors. She was with us every step of the way, tolerated and responded to our thousands of emails, and was there the day of the wedding to be sure everything went smoothly. Our family and friends continue to tell us it was the best wedding they've ever been to. We have Granite Links to thank for that-- the venue is absolutely beautiful, the views of Boston over the greens of the course are gorgeous, the sunset is unbeatable and the food is delicious. The staff ensured that everything went completely seamlessly-- my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of. I highly recommend Granite Links as a wedding venue to anyone who is looking--it's a decision you won't regret (see attached photos!)

esponsive. Our guests were amazed by the breathtaking views, the food, and of course the excellent staff. Our day of bridal attendant, Lisa, was with us every step of the way and made sure we ate, drank, and most importantly, had fun! We would absolutely recommend Granite Links to anyone! Kathryn & Jim

th Michelle Reid and it was the best thing that ever happened to us. She has so much experience in her field as well as knowledge of the venue that she made this process SO easy. She is extremely professional, always calls you right back and answers her emails faster then anyone I have ever met. She made my wife’s life a whole lot easier when it can to all the small details because her input comes from experience! If you have the pleasure of working with Michelle you are very lucky and your experience will be a breeze! Now to the wait staff… Just AWESOME, there is no other way to describe them, and Reina was also amazing! From the second I got there it was like I was the president of the United States, they catered to mine and my wife’s every need. The food was delicious, prepared very well and came out right on the time line we had set up. The cook did an unreal job with the dishes we picked as well as accommodating for our guests with food allergies. Overall we would HIGHLY recommend this venue as it is worth every penny! Nick and Mia

this place to anyone. Most importantly, we worked with Sara Coyne as our coordinator, and she was OUTSTANDING. My husband and I want to give her endless shout outs because she was such a rockstar. She was by our side the entire year leading up to the wedding and was incredibly helpful and reliable. On the day of our wedding we did not worry about a thing and everything ran perfectly. The compliments we received were endless. If you are searching for a venue in the greater Boston area, get married here, you will not regret it.

amily and friends. She is the epitome of a true professional who runs the finest show. We couldn't have asked to work with someone more knowledgeable, experienced and classy. My husband, parents and I felt completely at ease and in good hands with her trusted opinions and expertise. Linda always took the time to answer and go over any questions and concerns we had (no matter how many times we asked)! Day of she was present and available which was huge for me. The venue obviously speaks for itself, however, we happened to luck out with an absolutely magnificent day. Our guests raved about everything from start to finish. We feel so blessed and will forever be grateful to Granite Links, Linda and the rest of their team.

for a reasonable price. Our tasting was delicious and it was hard to pick entrees because the food was so good. I have celiac disease and the kitchen and chef were extremely accommodating. They went above and beyond to make sure I didn't have any issues! At the wedding, they clearly labeled what was gluten free, which was so helpful. It meant a lot to me to feel safe. Our bridal attendant was also extremely professional and helpful the day of. She made sure everything stayed right on time. I have to give a special shout out to Sara- she was AMAZING! Sara promptly answered all e-mails and questions my entire family had, kept everyone calm and organized, all while maintaining the sweetest and friendliest disposition. She managed our vendors, gave advice as if she was a good friend, and even helped me with how to hang my decorations. She helped us developed detailed time-lines and ensured that everything flowed seamlessly. I honestly could not have asked for anyone better to work with. She far exceeded all of my expectations. Overall, Granite Links' service was unparalleled, the food was amazing, and everything went just as planned. Our guests kept raving about just how wonderful everything was. It was an event that everyone will remember forever! If you are even considering Granite Links, book it- you will NOT regret it. It was truly the best decision we could have made.

olve any of your crazy questions, and brainstorm creative ways to make all of your requests a reality. Truly, it was Sara at Granite Links that made it happen - she is simply put the absolute BEST planner I could have imagined working with. Not only is Granite Links amazing because of their gorgeous, bright and clean-cut facilities, the killer view of the Boston skyline, and delicious food and beverages, but they also have Sara. I give her my highest recommendation :) Additionally, Granite Links is really special, as we had a ton of our of town guests (over 150) and we were able to give our guests the feeling of being near Boston (with the beautiful skyline) but also the flexibility of staying at the nearby Marriott with a much more reasonable price. My husband and I owe a lot to Sara and her team (including Robin, our bridal attendant!) for working with us make our wedding day the craziest most beautiful day of our lives. Thank you guys for an amazing day, night and experience. We love you! - Becca & Scott

the process which was so helpful. Awesome attention to detail, everything was perfect when we arrived for our reception. Kim was our day of coordinator and we absolutely loved her, she was fun to work with and did an amazing job making sure everything was seamless. We absolutely recommend this venue and couldn't be more pleased with our experience!

made us feel so special at every interaction

dible person to work with! She made us feel so important from our initial tour up until the moment the most amazing night of our lives ended. I emailed her multiple times as to have various family members view the venue. Never once did she ever make me feel like I had already looked at it a million times or that we were being a bother. Our wedding tasting was such a spectacular and elegant day. Sara and Rena made us feel so special and loved. They even opened every single bottle of wine for us to sample to decide what we wanted for our wine pour. Leading up to the day Sara knew how much of a type A person I am( I was the bride that carried the white binder everywhere). She knew how attentive I was to detail and she ensured me her team and herself would be just as attentive as me, if not more. She was so incredibly helpful. Of course that week I was a nervous wreck and probably sent her 1000 emails with the silliest of questions. Again, never made me feel like a bother and ALWAYS answered in a pleasant and prompt fashion. She assured me I could contact her at anytime and not to hesitate. Well the most magical day our life came and my incredible photographer called Sara to discuss our desire to make sure we got outdoor photos (our off-site ceremony ended just at the time of sunset), which was something we weren't sure was feasible. BUT THEY MADE IT HAPPEN! Our wedding was 100% perfection. Sara and Rena made sure my husband and I were happy the entire night. I couldn't ask for a better venue and honestly the team made it that much more incredible! I cant wait to have more events there! Sara and Rena- we will miss working with you and thanks for making our wedding the best night ever !

y 200 guests. The staff was simply wonderful! Everything ran very smoothly. The bridal suite is great for large bridal parties! The food was amazing! They certainly know how to do their job!

ndly and worked their tails off to make my day seamless. I wanted to specifically thank Linda B—she is a consummate professional. P.S. Amazing food! Everyone was raving about it!

communicate with all of our vendors keeping everyone in lock-step for the big day. She was always so positive, had great attention to detail, and was just an overall pleasure to work with (I'm actually going to miss our emails back and forth!). Sara is truly a rockstar. I can't forget Dory either, who was our bridal attendant the day-of. Dory stayed with us the entire night, making sure we were 100% taken care of with anything we needed. Thank you, Dory! Granite Links overall was a beautiful setting to capture the vibe I had wanted for my wedding, and everyone was pleased with the professionalism and service we received. I could not have had such an amazing wedding reception without Granite Links and their amazing staff--thank you!

process incredibly easy and stress free. So many of our guests have since commented on what a beautiful backdrop the venue provided. The price was incredibly reasonable considering the gorgeous scenery and everything that was included with the wedding package (linens, table numbers, a round of golf, etc). I would recommend this venue over and over again to anyone. We couldn't have been happier!

things for my wedding were food and music and Granite Links did not disappoint. The food was excellent- from the passed hors d’oeuvres and fondue during cocktail hour to the main entrees to the late night snacks- we received so many compliments from our guests on it! All of the staff was great and helped making our wedding such a memorable experience! We primarily worked with Heather, she was able to accommodate my requests and offered guidance/recommendations throughout the planning process. The execution by the Granite Links staff on the day of the wedding was exactly as we had discussed! The staff was so attentive to all of our guest and from my perspective the entire event was seamless. Robyn was our attendant on the day of, she was so patient, accommodating, and made sure my groom and I had everything we asked for and more! Beyond that she was fun and we had a great time with her! I would highly recommend Granite Links to anyone looking for a wedding venue!

ng absolutely gorgeous, this place knows what they are doing! The service is top notch, the food is delicious, and the staff ensures that everything runs smoothly. We are so happy we chose Granite Links to host our big day!

zation, professionals and responsibilities of your venue. We aren't ones to ever write a bad review, but we would never want this to happen to anyone else-especially on their one special day. Here's some word of advice if you do decide to have your event here: -Make sure there isn't an event before yours, they only give you a two hour window before events and that's NOT enough time to set up (your other vendors will charge you more money because they will need to hire more help to do everything in such short time) -Make sure they know the grooms name and that they tell you about the shuttle service. They spelled our names wrong on their sign and didn't inform us about the shuttle service. ---Having a wedding over 300? -Make sure they aren't training bartenders the day of your event. Everyone needs to be trained, but a wedding that size that is open bar is probably not the best option. -Make sure the waiters are coming in from different entrances so that everyone can see that's there's enough hors d'oeuvres during cocktail. -Make sure if you do stations, that someone is directing the lines and that someone is stationed to announce each table. -Make sure to write all you details down for them, lots of things were missed after numerous emails and meetings. Yes, the view, venue and food is amazing! But honestly, based on our experience...they can't handle a party over 300 and they don't take ownership or even acknowledge their mistakes. Even after sharing our feedback, there wasn't any sort of care or apologize (only for misspelling our names) on their part. Sorry for the long review, we just wouldn't want this to happen to anyone else.

lanner ( no names) seemed overwhelmed, slow to respond to emails and and some details were not attended to. First, I wanted to set up the place cards on the tables myself (MOB) and when I got there, the table sizes we had confirmed with our planner were not set up (smaller tables) so I could not put out place cards - that started the entire evening off rushed. I almost missed the "first look" waiting for the crew to find and reset tables. Our attendant Julie took over - she is amazing and you definitely want her! Next, the gluten free/nutfree desserts I spent hours finding and sampling were not put out. Our guests were told they had special desserts so assumed the one placed in front of them was it! I had to grab a fork full of cake from one of the nut free guests mouth!!! Our planner who told us she would be there the entire evening was no where to be found after 8pm. The other planner (who we signed on with initially) Linda, was there beginning to end and was apologizing for mistakes not her own! She was lovely and I highly recommend if you can get her you should! Linda Blackmore. She is wonderful! The only other negative is that there was a Shower going on in the room we were using for the ceremony until 2PM. Our florist had to build her wedding arch in the hallway and wait for the stragglers to leave. Very rushed trying to get in there to get it all done...double check what other functions are going on for your day. The venue was magnificent even though our day downpoured!

ich led to some issues with verbally discussed pricing not being reflected in the contract drafts, and we had a few instances of being rushed through calls or meetings. We later worked with someone else and our experience was much more positive. In terms of the day of, they really helped pull it all together. As the B&G, it's hard to always know what's going on the day of, but from what we could tell, things went very smoothly. I was also really happy with how accommodating/helpful they were on the day of. They totally understand this is your wedding day and they kept that in the forefront. It's certainly on the pricey side but I have no regrets given the options and elegance of the venue.

venues in the area that were not half as elegant, & actually more expensive! Our experience with Granite Links was fabulous from beginning to end. They know the event planning business and go to great lengths to be accommodating & to help make your day special. The tasting was amazing – it was difficult to plan our menu because everything was so good! We had our ceremony in the glass rotunda, the reception in the ballroom & a cocktail hour for our guests while the wedding party took photos on the grounds. Not only is view of the Boston skyline and the perfectly manicured golf course beautiful, but the venue also offers the ruins as a backdrop for some truly unique photos! (My favorites were shot there) Everything went like clockwork. Our sales associate, Heather was FANTASTIC. She was professional, friendly, & unflappable, with a lot of patience. I am fairly unorganized in nature, and she helped keep me on track, and was always available to answer any questions. Every recommendation/suggestion she made was spot on, & it is obvious she has great knowledge of the industry. I would have been lost without her! Linda was a big help the day of the event, & really kept things moving. And I honestly can’t say enough about Julie. We met Julie at the tasting, & fell in love with her to the point we requested her for the wedding. She is so professional, & her level of detail is beyond compare. She made my husband & I feel completely taken care of, making sure we took time to eat, & even jumping in to help with my bustle! She takes the service industry very seriously & clearly takes pride in her work. I can’t say enough about how GREAT the Granite Links Staff was! We received SO many compliments about the venue - how beautiful it was, inside and out, & how GREAT the food was. (Our guests are STILL talking about it and the wedding was in September!) We were told by several people it was the best wedding they have ever attended! I knew the moment I saw it Granite Links would be the perfect place for our wedding, & it did not disappoint!!!

d a lot of DIY stuff I wanted incorporated into the wedding). They made everything work. We were assigned a bridal attendant who stayed with us the entire wedding. She even made sure the buses were taken care of at the end of the night and didn't leave us till we were all set. This place rocks. The wait staff was so nice and keep telling us congratulations. The sales staff made everything perfect. They timed the music with our DJ and string quartet and had everything mapped out for us. The apps were amazing and the food was fantastic. They even have a tavern downstairs that our guests who arrived early could go have a drink and watch football at. This place rocks! 5 Stars!

ul and knowledgeable and helped the process run more smoothly. Our cocktail hour was in the tent which affords amazing view of Boston. The ballroom was set up exactly how I had requested and was beautiful. Appetizers and food was amazing and the staff did everything possible to help the event run on time! Everyone is still commenting on how beautiful the venue was!

aved about every individual food item we had - and I mean every single hors d'oeuvre, every station, and every desert. The stations were a great cost effective alternative to the plated meal. They duplicated every station on each side of the room to make the dinner go efficiently. We had a mashed potato bar, pasta bar, and two carving stations. The view of the Boston skyline is unparalleled. As a bonus, we had a spectacular sunset that had guests out on the balcony all night. We couldn't have asked for a better night at Granite Links for our wedding!

ng without the traffic or cramped spaces. Second, the service was absolutely flawless. I felt listened to and taken care of from my first interactions with Brooke to working with Molly and Kim on the day of the wedding. Brooke made sure to promptly answer all of my emails even though I spent almost 2 years asking questions and making requests. In the days leading up to the wedding and on the day of, every detail was attended to exactly as I'd planned. Our Bridal Attendant, Kim, was also amazing the day of the wedding--she made sure that my husband and I had drinks, had some alone time during the cocktail hour where we could actually try our apps, ate dinner and that everything went according to schedule. We absolutely adored her and would have been lost without her. The entire staff from bartenders to valets to waitstaff was friendly and helpful all day/night long. I plan to use Granite Links for as many events as possible going forward!

idn't have to worry about anything. Of note, especially, was the food. We were concerned because the food was excellent on our tasting, but weren't sure how it would turn out when it was made in mass quantity (200+ guests). The food tasted just as good, if not even better!! Everything exceeded our expectations. We would recommend this venue to any bride and groom planning their wedding!

ust raving about the wedding! Each and every member of the Granite Links staff made all of our guests feel as though they were the most important person in the room and we just can't thank them enough!! Linda B and Kim- you both went above and beyond our expectations, you waited on us, kept us together, dried our tears and even made sure we ate- which as the parents, we know how hard it can be as you try to greet everyone. The food was out of this world- Hats off to your culinary team!!! It wasn't just about May 23rd wedding either, it was all the time Linda devoted to us before the event, the meetings, the tasting, the rehearsal dinner, every step of the way she was the utmost professional and always kept us on track. I am an event planner as well so I know what goes into an event of this magnitude and I can also be the most critical, when I tell you Granite Links goes above and beyond- they really do!! Not one detail missed! You guys ROCK!!! Don't change a thing- Every bit of our experience was over the TOP!!! Linda and Kim- as the parents of the Bride and Groom- we just want to say- WE ADORE YOU!!! You really took such good care of all of us that we were able to enjoy every second of the wedding and that is so important- some venues totally forget about the parents. Please also note that we had our rehearsal dinner there as well and that was just as wonderful. Joe and Jen were kind, caring and such a pleasure! The food was, as always, top-notch and everyone is still talking about the delicious "White Lasagna". Granite Links as far as we are concerned is the #1 Wedding Venue and trust me we looked at plenty of them!!! Linda, Kim and staff- thank you for such a memorable event and know that you were nothing but a pleasure every step of the way!!! John & Linda Casey Bob & Jacqui Cummings

dding itself was wonderful. The event went very smoothly; the meal was delicious and the wait staff, especially Susan, was extremely attentive. The DJ (Pat) did an excellent job getting everyone up dancing. and the place was tastefully decorated, largely due to our excellent florist, Jen at the Tangled Web. At the end of the evening, GL helped pack everything up for us. We honestly could not have asked for anything more!

provided us with the tools we needed to have a very successful event. She provided insight, ideas, and guidance regarding what worked well for past events and helped us work through our wedding vision which was a little out of the ordinary. The entire team was available and responsive to all of our questions and concerns throughout the process. They listened to us and delivered as promised. The tasting with the Chef was a delightful experience. The food is fantastic and the Chef was personable and very talented. He worked with us to create a menu that suited our event. The Staff, especially our Bridal attendant (Julie) provided excellent service on the day of the event. They ensured that the night went perfectly. Overall our reception was very well coordinated. The food was outstanding. We received many compliments to the Chef that night and we are still hearing about how good the food was today! Granite Links also worked very well with our outside vendors (Florist, DJ, Photographer, etc.). Michelle followed-up with us after the event to ensure that we had a wonderful time. Honestly, we could not have had a better night. It was exactly what we were hoping for and we thank the event staff at Granite Links for helping us have a night that we will never forget.

nd fell in love with the gorgeous ballroom and the view of the Boston skyline. During our wedding, I remember saying aloud on the balcony, "This view is just even more beautiful than I remember." Several of our guests commented on how efficient the staff was and how they moved things along smoothly. The planning process was really easy, even though our event coordinator changed about a month before the wedding. They had a folder with detailed notes on everything for our wedding, so the new coordinator didn’t miss a beat. Our event coordinator was always quick to reply to emails and sent us Excels and seating maps to organize the final details. They really made us feel special at the private tasting. We were stuffed after each trying a plate of appetizers, first course dishes, and 4 entrees. The chef came out to chat with us and told us he'd accommodate whatever requests we had. I've heard that other venues charge you to bring more than two people to the tasting and only host group tastings. Granite Links goes all out with personalized tasting menus, a candlelit table, and champagne and drinks through dinner. The food during the tasting and the wedding was delicious. Several of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the food. The dance floor is huge! It’s one of the bigger ones we saw during our venue search. A big dance floor was important to us! The staff took care of absolutely everything on the day of the wedding. They worked with the vendors to set up, set up the tables, centerpieces, candy dishes, place cards, everything! I expected to be stressed and asked a lot of questions on the wedding day, but the staff made it so easy! They even designate a bridal attendant to the bride on the day of the wedding, and I had Kim and she was AWESOME! She literally was changing out our drinks throughout the night before we even took our last sip and made sure we had water during photos and champagne and food and everything we needed while getting ready in the bridal suite. Everything wedding related is expensive, but I know from lots of research that you get more for your money and more space at Granite Links than lots of the Boston venues and other venues in the area. Lastly, they are just so flexible and will cater to special menu requests, liquor and beer requests, and will set up the room however you want. Thanks Granite Links for making our wedding day so amazing!

solutely terrible though. We had informed her that the mother of the groom gets the pinned corsage, and the mother of the bride gets the wrist one. After she had pinned the one on the wrong mom's pocketbook, she left the other corsage because she didn't remember who it went to. When I informed her of the mixup, she replied "Oh." and stared at me. The bridesmaids were unsure where to stand, walk, etc. She ended up leaving right after the reception dinner instead of sticking around. The waitress, Sue, ended up being the "coordinator" throughout the whole process, and honestly should have been acting as coordinator instead!

our wedding coordinator and she was amazing. She took care of all the details and made sure that everything was on time. For all those newly engaged people looking for a place to celebrate such an amazing day, I recommend that you go take a look at granite links. You wont regret it!

the venue was the event coordinator who was a bit difficult to work with in terms of responsiveness to emails and I often had to provide her with the same information multiple times, despite me memorializing details and specifics in emails. However, on the day of, the event coordinator was on top of everything and the day was wonderful.

the huge balcony to watch it from. The ballroom is high-class and the cocktail rotunda is so classically beautiful. The staff was awesome, always taking care of me (the Bride) at a drop of the hat. Our guests could get there easily by car or plane into Logan, and the nearby Marriott hotel is convenient for shuttling. I adored this place and highly recommend it - you get the feel of a ritzy Boston wedding for less money and more convenience.

ng amazing place to have a wedding or any party!

bout the food.

ount of money we spent. I wouldn't recommend having your reception here unless they work out the kinks. I had heard amazing things about this place which is why we chose it however we were beyond disappointed with the final product. For the money, I suggest getting married in Boston. You'll have a better experience.

of her clients and they made sure that every detail was perfect the day of my wedding. They delt with all of the other vendors and didnt both me with anything that went wrong with outside vendors, they just handeled it and you would never know anything went wrong. The appitizers and main course were very good. I have never had SO many people come up to me and tell me that my wedding was one of the best weddings they had ever been to, and Granite Links was a HUGE part of that. I would reccomend Granite Links to anyone!

ossible. My guests raved about the food and how beautiful the venue was. I can't thank Linda enough for making my wedding a dream.

d recommend this place to ANYONE AND EVERYONE! Thank you Granite Links for making my wedding day that much more perfect!
