Groveland Fairways

ng. We were originally going to be married in June of 2020- but like many others, we had to reschedule. Alicia, who was our coordinator, was there with us every step of the way. It truly felt like she was on the same roller coaster of emotions that we were every time there was a change, or cancellation, or reschedule. When our day had finally come, it was exactly how we had planned it all along (minus the 90* day!). Everything the day of went so smoothly- if there was an issue, I certainly had no clue. I got so many compliments on the venue-- how nice it looked, the gardens, and the food (through Vinwood Catering).The pricing is so reasonable and affordable, which was another one of our reasons for choosing Groveland. I love that there are different areas for pictures and multiple choices for ceremonies as well. I would highly recommend Groveland Fairways to anyone!

sent and ready to help keep everything going smoothly. The staff there were wonderful. Oh, and the food? Amazing. All of my guests have talked about how great the food was.

e to break it down! We loved the staff and Liz our coordinator was simply amazing and took all of our cares away-as well as guiding us on multiple ways to cut our budget and get the most for our money and time at the venue! We are completely thrilled with how our wedding day was handled and loved the food and set up!!!

so many things I didn’t even think of or weren’t listed on wedding to-do websites, etc. Liz was there each step of the way, and was not only wonderful professionally, she became a friend as well. I would highly recommend this venue not only for the gorgeous setting, but for the priceless team you get along with it. Please choose this venue!

amazing from the beginning when we toured. Also planning across the country they were helpful and flexible with meetings for when my husband and I were in town. Liz helped so much being super detail oriented and asked me questions I hadn't even though of and gave recommendations which helped me so much. The day of went so smoothly I was so relaxed because I knew the team there was taking care of all the details. They were so calm and professional. I cannot say enough good things about them! The venue itself is beautiful and I love the amazing scenic secluded spots for photos! My guests raved about the beauty of the venue and also the food! it was an awesome day and I can't imagine my wedding anywhere else!

s they work exclusively with Vinwood Caterers, so we did not need to search for a caterer. A special shoutout to the wedding coordinator Liz and her team. Liz helped us through every step, via meetings, phone calls, or emails. Without her, I’d be lost! All of our guests were blown away by the gorgeous venue. Thank you for holding our wedding!

she helped us plan every detail before the big day. She made sure everything ran smoothly and it was beyond perfect. As a bonus, they are tied with an amazing catering service as well.

es. I was really indecisive on a lot of things and she gave great suggestions - I felt at ease knowing she would give valuable advice and didn’t pressure me at all to go one way or another. We hoped for the best and to have sunny and warm weather for our big day. Not knowing how the weather was going to be, it calmed my nerves to know we had a back-up option if there was inclement weather. The weather turned out to be amazing and Liz and her assistant Taylor worked their magic and transformed the decor into exactly how I envisioned my wedding day to be. They made our day seem seamless and kept us on track. The venue itself is outstanding. We had our ceremony outside (with a long walkway), cocktail hour by the outside terrace fireplace and the reception in the Terrace room. All of our guests loved the venue and complemented numerous times that we picked the perfect location. Groveland Fairways is such an amazing catch outside of Boston and we are so glad to have our wedding day here!

much guidance! Its incredible how much value Groveland packs into their packages - from on-site coordinator, catering, tips built in to prices (no silly hidden fees!), and linen/tableware provided. It allowed us to really focus on other details and trust that they had the rest covered. Every other vendor we worked with knew and loved the Groveland staff, which made planning our day seamless! Thank you Alicia and Groveland!!

cannot say enough wonderful things about the grounds at Groveland Fairways, the staff, and Vinwood Catering. I'll start by talking about Liz, our coordinator. From the first minute we met Liz, it felt like we had known her forever. She was so easygoing and calm which kept us very relaxed throughout the entire wedding planning process. She always responded to any questions extremely quickly and was willing to help with anything we needed. She provided so much great advice about everything from the cake cutting, to cocktail hour, to decorations, and everything else in between! She even helped me bustle my dress on the wedding day!!!! Liz was a huge reason why our wedding was one of the best days of our lives. The staff at Groveland on our wedding day was all amazing. Everyone was so nice, polite, and helpful and they would go out of their way to make sure you were having a good time. When we were taking photos during cocktail hour, one of the servers was bringing me over my drink to take sips in between pictures!!! We had a buffet style dinner but the staff served my husband and I so that we made sure to eat! They checked on us multiple times during dinner, even offering to go back up to the buffet for us. I have never received such wonderful service. Vinwood catering was great. The food was delicious and Stephanie was so helpful in planning out everything before our wedding. The grounds at Groveland Fairways are amazing. There are 3 different ceremony locations which are all equally as beautiful! We got married in the summer, and while we wanted it to be outside, we didn't even mind if it rained as the inside fireplace room is so beautiful (it ended up being outside by the terrace which was a dream location!!). We took so many pictures around Groveland and they have all come out so amazing. There really are countless photo locations. We were even able to bring our dogs during the first look to take some pictures with them! All of our guests have commented nonstop about the service, food and beautiful location. Our DJ, who has been in the wedding business for over 30 years, came over to us towards the end of the wedding to let us know he has never seen a better run facility and has never encountered a more friendly, helpful staff than he experienced at Groveland Fairways. Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives thanks to Groveland Fairways and their amazing staff. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this venue to anyone! Thank you all so much for such a perfect day.

edding there. Liz is fabulous, she quickly responded to all of my emails and answered my crazy silly questions, while never ever making me feel crazy or silly. She recommended a florist, DJ, and transportation company, who were all excellent as well. As far Groveland Fairways itself, the venue is absolutely gorgeous. Liz and Taylor did a wonderful job with our decorations, it was a magical feeling walking into the venue and seeing all of our ideas come to life. A huge benefit here is that there are 3 possible ceremony locations so if the weather acts up you can still have a beautiful ceremony inside and everyone will have a seat! We lucked out on the weather and ended up having a perfect ceremony and cocktail hour outside. The reception flowed smoothly and was so much fun, we couldn’t have imagined it going any better. Many of our friends had told us that you don’t get to eat or drink or enjoy your own wedding, that was not the case for us. The staff at Groveland Fairways made sure we had plenty of food and drinks and I can truly say we had fun at our own wedding! Vinwood, the exclusive caterer, was wonderful. We worked with Stephanie and all of the food was amazing. Everything was perfect, all staff was amazing, we highly recommend Groveland Fairways!!

inside due to weather and she was beyond incredible making it just as beautiful inside! I am so grateful that I was able to work with Liz and Groveland Fairways. I would love to be able to hold another event of some sort there just because of how helpful they were! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

ive and helpful. The caterers for Groveland Fairways, Vinwood, were also amazing. They were very organized and all of our guests raved about the cocktail hour food and their meals. We highly recommend Groveland Fairways if you are looking for a venue that will execute your day without any problems. Thank you to Liz and the GF Team!

the first venue we looked at and every venue after that just didn’t measure up. Liz really knows her stuff! She was my go-to for any question, big or small, and she was prompt to respond and helped me be a less-stressed bride!

numerous times that Nancy (the owner) went to the venue to let us drop things off (The wedding cake the day before the wedding, and the day after to get the decor..more on that to come). The food was delicious and we got many compliments. It is definitely budget friendly and there is a lot that you can do to make the venue what you want. Alicia was very flexible the night of the rehearsal with allowing my family to help with the set up. She was very receptive to our ideas with the decor.When the cake arrived and it was just a white cake, she went out of her way to put extra greenery on the cake to jazz it up. The wait staff was fabulous as well as the majority of the bar staff. I do want to note that Alicia did respond to emails in a timely fashion and I never felt like I couldn’t ask her a question or felt like it took too long to get a response. Fast forward to the day of the wedding. We did run into an issue with a bar staff member who did not want to serve a member as she did not have her ID on her, which I understand as they need to protect themselves. She stated that she saw my father serve her alcohol (he gave my 28 year old sister a drink, not the girl in questions) and was going to shut the bar down. She then, in front of guests, stomped her feet, told my dad she “saw what he did” and ran to Alicia, who reiterated they needed to protect their license. Understandable, but many guests noticed. The girl in question got her ID and an apology should have been issued to my parents and it was never received. Our wedding ended at 10:30. At 10, the wait staff began to take away and pack away all of the centerpieces and decor, as the wedding is still happening. Alicia then stated that we were to take all of the decor on the bus back to the hotel. In my opinion, this should have been discussed beforehand. She stated that she told both of my parents, in which they both said that is not true. My father communicated with her that that was entirely inappropriate (we were going on a motor coach bus with 60 guests) and we would be there the next day. It very much felt unwelcoming and like the staff wanted to leave. Realistically, the decor should have been left up and my guests should not have been subjected to seeing the room being broken down. The next day we emailed Alicia to ask for an itemized receipt for the bar tab, as we did open bar for wedding party and soft drinks and were surprised that it was a bit higher than we expected. We asked for an itemized receipt the night of the wedding where the bar staff stated they could not provide it. Alicia’s response is attached in pictures, as well as the initial question. I found her response to be a little combative in nature. A simple, “I can get that over to you. I hope you had a great night!” would have been a much more appropriate response, in my opinion. I really wish that I could give the venue a 5 star rating. I enjoyed my time there had a great wedding but definitely left with a bad taste in my mouth. After posting on wedding wire, I received more unpleasant back and forth emails from Alicia. While originally rated a 4/5, I did bump it down to a 3 as the professionalism was seriously lacking since posting my review.

te and romantic feel and we loved how comfortable Liz made us feel at our first meeting. She is so sweet and down to earth and you could just tell she was experienced and knew what she was doing. During our planning process, Liz was truly heaven sent. She answered all of my questions quickly and would always would get back to me promptly. She also gave us tons of great recommendations and helpful tips that were really helpful during our planning process. Liz was so on top of everything leading up to our wedding day, that I really didn’t have to worry about any detail. If I was ever questioning anything or stressed I would reach out to Liz and she would always calm my nerves and have a solution. Day of, she was amazing and made everything run perfectly! We couldn’t of had a more perfect day and we owe a lot of that to Liz and her hard work making sure everything went as planned. Not only was the venue gorgeous and very affordable (hidden gem!) and the staff wonderful, but the food was amazing too from their exclusive caterer, Vinwood Caterers. We received tons of compliments on our food and we really enjoyed it all too. We made sure to try the appetizers & took time to eat dinner and I am so glad we did because it was superb. We had the best wedding day thanks to Liz and Groveland Fairways & will never forget the amazing night we had. If you’re considering this venue you should book it now because you will have an amazing wedding day here! Thanks Liz and Groveland Fairways for making our wedding day better than we ever dreamed possible! Amanda & Eric Bruno

space, beautiful fire places! On top of that, Liz is so friendly and helpful--she calmed every stress and nerve and made wedding planning so much easier for us. I don't know what we would have done without her! Our day was beautiful and we loved every minute-all thanks to Liz and the hard work and dedication of every one at Groveland!!

things off of, and to make sure the day goes smoothly and you don't have to think about anything except getting married. They have an exclusive deal with Vinwood Caterer's and we are still hearing from our guests that it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding ever. Every single aspect of our wedding was perfect and we tell everyone we can about Groveland Fairways!

! The grounds and the venue are beautiful on their own without adding anything to it. Liz from day 1 was absolutely amazing with helping us with the planning process. Her attention to detail and knowledge of events is amazing and she made our day absolutely stunning and took a lot of the stress out of planning our big day. The staff was absolutely amazing and made our day perfect as well! 💙😊 People are still raving about what a great time they had at our wedding!

ffered advice and helpful tips we used on our amazing day. The grounds and inside are beautiful and can accommodate any wedding theme. The food from Vinwood Catering was outstanding and our guest still rave about it today. Thank you Groveland Fairways for making our wedding the most amazing day of our lives!

ther and sister were having issues with the bustle, Liz stepped up and took control, Saving us from a future panic attack. Leading up to the wedding, she was very responsive to any questions I had and reassured me that everything was going to be perfect. It is an absolute beautiful venue and I would highly recommend it to anyone!

Our wedding was 9/2/18, it was a gorgeous sunny day, the gardens out back were in bloom, it was absolutely perfect. More about Liz... She was amazing!! It is so apparent how much she loves her job and cares about her couples. She was there for us every step of the way and answered all of my questions promptly, even when they were silly ones. I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone!

out Groveland Fairways. The place was stunning and everything was set up just the way we wanted it. We had our ceremony and cocktail hour outside then moved inside for the reception. I would HIGHLY recommend this venue to ANYONE!!

et married indoors in the ceremony room (incase of bad weather) and not just on the dance floor of the venue. Both the indoor and outdoor areas were classically romantic and the outdoor patio was perfect for both the cocktail hour and a reprieve from the dance floor. The food from the appetizers to dessert were delicious! Our guests are still raving about every bite they took! I would highly recommend attending one of Vinwood's tasting dinners! The true gem of this venue, however, is their wedding coordinator Liz! She was extremely knowledgeable and professional throughout the whole process. In the prep months she was prompt at returning emails, giving tactful advice, and making your vision come true. The day of, she makes sure everything runs like clockwork behind the scenes so you can have a stress-less day! Would highly recommend this location for any and all future brides!
