Carissa and her team at Hartman's went above & beyond to make our day seamless and beautiful. They were so accommodating and willing to help us with anything during the planning process! I can't say enough great things about them and their venue, we had the best day there!
Our wedding at Hartman's Herb Farm was a magical experience. We had our ceremony on the front stoop of their new chapel. With the wisteria and lilac blooming, it was like being in a fairytale! And because they did the food, flowers, cake and had rooms for our family to stay...the whole process was seamless.
I toured this venue on July 29th , 2021. The, I’m assuming owner?, Carissa, paid more attention to the other people that were there and only showed us the main room. There was still food on the floor from the wedding the day before, used masks on the tables, the carpets are old and dirty, there were broken windows and the rest were incredibly dirty. The main room is A LOT smaller than it looks in the pictures. She also didn’t even have our paperwork printed out, so she disappeared for like 10 minutes to print it out. While we were waiting, there was this random child banging on the piano while we were trying to ask questions to the other person. Carissa also told us that if we wanted to see the yard across the street, we could go and look at it by ourselves. Overall, just very unprofessional and dirty. They say “rustic” but they just mean run down and dirty.
Hartman's Herb Farm was the perfect wedding venue. Lynn and Carissa have been nothing short of amazing since the day I submitted an inquiry. They were dedicated to making our big day perfect, and it really was better than I ever dreamed it could be.
After having our fantastic rehearsal dinner in the deck room, my bridesmaids and I stayed the night in the B&B. Our rooms were all so charming, very clean, and the beds were super comfortable. Breakfast the next morning was delicious and plentiful. Our hairdressers and makeup artists had plenty of room to get us all dolled up in the bridal suite.
Lynn did an excellent job with our flowers. I had no real idea what I wanted, aside from our color scheme and rough ideas for shapes. Lynn ran with it, and knocked it out of the park. Our bouquets and centerpieces were stunning, much better than I ever could've imagined. She also did a fantastic job coordinating everyone and everything to put together a beautiful ceremony at the new chapel. I didn't have to do a single thing the day of our wedding, the whole day just happened, exactly to and exceeding my wishes.
It's been nearly a month, and my guests still can't stop talking about the "most delicious wedding food ever" - Carissa is phenomenal. There is no competition for the food served at Hartman's, and nobody will ever be disappointed or hungry after a wedding catered by Carissa. I'm still dreaming of the butternut squash ravioli with burnt sage butter. We served cupcakes, and everyone raved about them. They were simply scrumptious.
We stayed in the B&B on Saturday night with some of our friends, and had another delightful breakfast before packing up and heading out to our honeymoon. It was so relaxing on Sunday morning, with no frantic rushing around.
For a "one stop shop" wedding, you simply cannot pass up Hartman's Herb Farm. They take care of everything so you don't have to worry about a thing. Lynn and Carissa are wedding wizards, friendly and professional, flexible and accommodating to your ideas and last-minute "oh yeah!" details. I cannot recommend Hartman's enough!!
I absolutely loved Hartman’s Herb Farm for our wedding venue. Not only was the venue itself gorgeous but Carissa and Lynne were so sweet and there for everything we needed! Carissa went out of her way to make a Vietnamese dish for my husbands family; my husband gave her a recipe, and man did she knock it out of the park, we literally had at least four couples come to us asking for the lemongrass pork recipe she used.
Lynne asked me what I wanted my bouquet to look like and she went and bought bulbs and seeds to grow those flowers for me. It came out exactly like I wanted!
We lucked out with weather on our wedding day so we were able to have our ceremony in their garden across the street but there were two backups in case weather took a turn. We had a friend get married here on a rainy day and they said having the wedding inside was beautiful and they wouldn’t have changed a thing.
Our wedding was absolute perfection! Lynn and Carissa will treat you like family and make sure your every need is meet. The entire wedding party spent the entire weekend at the farm, from rehearsal dinner, to Sunday brunch after the wedding. They handled everything from flowers, food, cake, and of course, location. The venue is absolutely gorgeous. We got married in the garden and I'm still in awe of how perfect it was for us.
We had so many compliments coming from our guests. I beleive most people got a chance to visit the baby goats during cocktail hour, which is always a bonus.
We had the most wonderful experience with Hartman's for our wedding last weekend! Lynn and Carissa (and the rest of the team at Hartman's!) are incredibly thorough and care so much about about making sure everything is perfect. They were flexible and easily accommodated special requests for specific craft beers, special flowers, and allergy-friendly foods. They went out of their way during the day of to help everything run smoothly and were amazing with our guests. The food was delicious and the cake was the best we've ever had. We look forward to returning in the future and visiting the baby goats and the Hartman family! Thanks so much, Lynn and Carissa :)
Very friendly people that made my guests and I feel like we were at home.
First off, it was so nice to have everything together all in one place. They do the food, flowers, ceremony, reception... all you need to worry about is a DJ and photographer! Takes a load of stress off you.
They take good care of you as well and are very accommodating. We were able to book a room right there the night before and the night of. Breakfast was served for us and they set aside some food from our wedding to take home for the next day. They fed our wedding party pizza on our big day so we wouldn't have to worry about eating before the ceremony. They were always busy and hard at work, so sometimes getting in contact with them was a little rough, but they listened and delivered!
Beautiful place to top it all off and even had a little bit of entertainment with the goats visiting us! Would not have picked a different place.
Thank you so much guys! <3
This is a beautiful, small farm off the beaten path in MA. Lynn and her daughter Carissa will make sure everything is taken care of both leading up to and on the day of your wedding. It is the perfect combination of the outdoors/nature and indoor space.
!!!Highly recommend! We got married at Hartman’s last Saturday. Best decision! The staff is amazing, so friendly and personable and really take into account your vision. Carissa and Lynn helped us to have the best wedding we could have, and they’re organization helped to put me at ease as a bride to be. The food was so delicious and I have been getting comments all week about it. Such a beautiful location and loved that we were the only wedding for the weekend so we could really enjoy our day.
We were married at Hartman’s this past Saturday and we cannot say enough about the amazing Hartman family and their staff. From the moment I visited this venue with my mom last summer I knew this was the place where we should have our wedding. The Hartman family pours their heart into everything they do—from their amazing gardens and grounds to their delicious food and incredible flowers, there was no detail left untouched. They were wonderful answering any questions we had and were very accommodating with any changes we made throughout the planning process—even on the day of our wedding when there was a 100% chance of storms that afternoon with a morning full of non-stop rain, they STILL managed to have our wedding out in the garden during the brief moments of sunshine that afternoon. All of our guests were raving about their amazing food and absolutely loved getting to see the animals and plants around the farm. Our photographers and our DJ also enjoyed working with them and appreciated how much thought and care they put into taking care of our vendors. It was so wonderful to know the Hartmans were working so hard to ensure everything went smoothly and it took a huge weight off of our shoulders. Lynn was even taking pictures and videos throughout the weekend to help us capture all the special moments we had! The thought and care they put into making sure our day was exactly what we wanted is so greatly appreciated. We could not have asked for a more beautiful setting to say “I Do” or a more wonderful family to work with. We could never thank you enough for all that you’ve done for us, and know your farm and your family/staff will always hold a special place in our hearts!
The entire experience was fantastic. Lynn and Carissa are intrinsically motivated to ensure that every detail of the event runs smoothly. They take great pride in creating an authentic atmosphere and fantastic experience. I will add that two baby goats were born on the farm the morning of our wedding, and I have a feeling they somehow arranged that as well. The environment provides extensive opportunities for photography in a number of visual settings. If you enjoy beautiful plants and a greenhouse environment, this is the venue for you.
I loved Hartman's. Right from the beginning they were wonderful to work with. Hartman's was completely different from the other vendors we looked at they were down to earth and knew exactly what they were doing but not overbearing on the details. They encouraged us to put our stamp on the day and were able to take care of the details that I had not thought of or would not have wanted to do. The farm is absolutely gorgeous (beyond words). The price was great given that I have a huge family and so our guest list was pretty big. They have a great family atmosphere and make you feel part of the farm and their community. Never were we rushed or moved along at the end of the evening we sat outside in the beautiful fall weather and they let us close up. Wonderful experience all around working with them as well as a fantastic wedding day. They are also a B&B so we got to stay right there is a great cozy room and our wedding party stayed there as well.
Carissa and Lynn at Hartman's Herb farm were amazing hosts. We did not have a worry the whole night due to their expert planning and ease in working with our other vendors. We had a beautiful wedding and truly the night of our lives. Thank you everyone at Hartman's for the wedding of my dreams without breaking the bank!
