Hotel Northampton

taff were so nice and everything ran as smoothly as it could have.

edding packages, which also included cake and flowers. Despite the stress of planning a wedding, Ruby and Alex were there at every step along the way and worked tirelessly with us to make our wedding vision come to life. Ruby always made herself available for questions, concerns, or bridal meltdowns. In the end, our wedding was fantastic! On the day of, we had our ceremony in the Junior Ballroom. Ruby coordinated the ceremony without a hitch, and even helped with my nerves before. We had our cocktail hour in the Wiggins Tavern and the guests loved it. The transition from the cocktail hour to reception was smooth as well. Our reception in the Grand ballroom was beautiful which reflected our vision, the food was excellent, and everyone was able to enjoy themselves. Also, The Hotel Northampton also has many brightly lit areas that were perfect for our wedding photos. In the end, we got so many compliments on our wedding. I highly recommend The Hotel Northampton as the best place to have a wedding.

w stressful it was to plan a wedding and I will happily say that was not my experience at all. The wedding was a breeze and this venue allowed me to focus on the important part of the day, just getting married!

kindness making their wedding day perfect. The food was absolutely top shelf and our guests cannot stop complimenting us on the venue!

ional throughout the whole process and during the function. Thank you Hotel Northampton!

o Carly Heath. Carly is amazing!!!!! She is so responsive, creative, and will work with you regardless of your budget and wedding size. We wanted a small wedding of max 50 people and a wedding that would capture my husband's background and my Puerto Rican heritage. Carly guided us every step of the way and provided so much insight and advice. The recommended vendors were awesome and we used one of the DJs the Hotel recommended. They were very reasonable and excellent. It was my dream wedding and Carly made it happen! And everyone else at the Hotel Northampton.

ked with Carly primarily and left every meeting with her feeling confident that our wedding would be wonderful. Our guests loved the food and loved that they could stay in the same hotel and just take the elevator up at the end of the night. We cannot recommend them enough!

ton. Their packages encompass everything you need for your day, and prices are affordable.

r coordinator Carly did a fantastic job. Would highly recommend this venue.

mth and old-fashioned luxury, a sense of history. While at the same time, down to earth, warm and welcoming. We slept great, we enjoyed all the food (breakfast at the restaurant, the wedding meal). The staff was courteous and efficient. Carly Heath was stupendous--keeping us informed about each of the decisions on the way, and helping us meet our goals. It was really nice to be able to taste everything at the yearly bridal event, and choose that special cake. It was particularly convenient that our ceremony was walking distance away (First Churches). There’s lots to do in the Northampton area, and the guests who came from afar really enjoyed themselves. Spot on! Couldn’t ask for more! Just so pleased. Renee C. Mother of the Bride 8/19/22

with and provided guidance throughout the entire process. From suggested vendors, to meal choices, to running the show, the hotel really goes above and beyond with what they offer. Everyone had such a wonderful day.

ing to fall into place and work for us. Our wedding ceremony and party was also a little... unorthodox. It included both Christian, Jewish and Danish traditions. This meant, multiple speakers at the wedding ceremony, and around 6 speeches during the meal service at dinner. Ruby was great to work with because she gave us a clear outline of how the schedule should usually go, but was very flexible to make sure that everyone who wanted to speak, got the opportunity. We got so many compliments after the wedding, that the ceremony was one of the best they attended and the mixture of American and Danish wedding traditions was the perfect blend. Thank you again to Ruby and her team for making this such an unforgettable event! P.s. Ruby and my younger cousin, also managed to get a 3 year old and 2.5 year old down the aisle, all on their own. Ruby assured us that they would, but we had our doubts. Thankfully, Ruby and my younger cousin, and a few well placed M&Ms got them down the aisle and some awesome photos.

with Ruby gave us such confidence for our big day. Ruby was always available to keep us updated or answer any questions. We had several meetings throughout the two year process and she was always honest with us as she helped us navigate what to do. She also gave great honest advice when it came to planning the final details. Coming from someone who knew everything the Hotel Northampton had to offer best, it was so helpful. The Hotel Northampton was also very accommodating to anything we asked. Ruby always took the time to look into it and never let us down as she figured out how to incorporate everything. This seamless process continued right to the big day. From handling all our decorations and welcome bags to putting on the perfect evening for our guests, their service is unmatched. Their wedding packages have so much to offer that many venues will itemize but here they have a level of service they want to deliver and it ensures an absolutely elegant evening. All our guests were so impressed which was so exciting to hear. Behind the scenes was no different, Ruby had everything going so perfectly there was no stress for us. We got to enjoy every moment of our wedding which was so appreciated. Ruby was truly amazing to work with. We highly recommend Hotel Northampton!

We never received "no" as an answer going through the planning of our wedding. Ruby was so flexible and helpful with our program schedule, menu selection, collaborating with the rest of the vendors, organizing our rehearsal dinner, and accommodating our guests at the hotel. She also gave us great recommendations for additional services that happen during a wedding day. All of our guests complimented the reception, the staff, and the food service! My husband and I are so happy that we celebrated our special day at The Hotel Northampton and we highly recommend it - great value! Once again, thank you, Ruby, and your team, for making our wedding so memorable!

the one I had at the Hotel Northampton. All of the staff on the day of the wedding were kind, courteous, and friendly. Ruby was there every step of the way to ensure the flow of the event went smoothly. If you're looking to do an intimate wedding with great location and views for photos, I would highly recommend.

the easiest $4,500 they ever made. Congratulations for putting it to a young couple just trying to make ends meet. Do not get married here, they do not care about the wellbeing of their customers, only their bottomline. If they can screw you out of your money, they will.

l of their packages. There was no pressure at all and we spend a few weeks thinking about it and it was the best decision we made in wedding planning. Lorraine is honestly a wedding planner and venue coordinator all rolled into one and Ruby is equally wonderful. She never blinked when I made a suggestion or request and put me 100% at ease the whole time. We got married in Northampton's high season with 80% out of town guests and the hotel plus the Fairfield had plenty of room for us to have blocks for everyone (HN controls both blocks!). The weekend of the wedding, everything went insanely smoothly! I showed up with 2 carts of decor and some pictures and everything was placed exactly as I envisioned! Even our videographer commented that he never had been to a wedding that went so smoothly! My husband and I spent two nights in the honeymoon suite and they even held our cake's top tier in the kitchen fridge until we checked out, reminding us as we were checking out! The food is great, the bartenders were amazing, the servers even hurried to put out a small fire one of the tables accidentally set with a candle and then came to tell us what happened so we wouldn't worry! All of our guests said the rooms were wonderful and were so pleased they could walk all around town, running into each other on the streets! I wish we could do it all again!

ally made everything so easy for us ! I would highly recommend the Hotel Northampton!

rraine was amazing to work with and made this experience wonderful and smooth for us! I HIGHLY recommend The Hotel Northampton!

oordinator was helpful and patient every step of the way. She responded quickly and made the whole process easy. Totally worth it!

nning process, answered our emails quickly, and really took care of so much for us. The flowers and cake arranged throughout the hotel also went above and beyond my expectations. All of our guests keep talking about how excellent the food and service was as well. I really can't recommend the hotel enough!

t desk made sure everyone got their welcome bag. We also had an afterparty in the private room at Wiggins Tavern downstairs. Our guests had a great time overall (and my sister raves about the room service). Thanks Hilary for setting up such a wonderful stay!

e experience drove home the elegance and quality of the Hotel Northampton. I would highly recommend it to any one, especially couples seeking a more classic venue.

y to talk to during the planning process all the way leading up to the day where she was on top of every detail and there for us if we needed anything. The Hotel Northampton staff was wonderful over all from the tasting, which made it hard to decide on our menu because everything was delicious, Ruby made coordinating times and communicating with our vendors stress free and the reception itself was beautiful. The venue is classic and timeless and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice to hold out wedding reception at the Hotel Northampton.

tmosphere, and recommend it to all.

sn't actually at the cocktail hour, but heard great things from our guests). I am a perfectionist, and Kelly and Ruby worked closely with me (and graciously accepted my ridiculously long checklists) in order to make sure everything ran smoothly and was set up exactly how I wanted. Everything came together absolutely beautifully. The food was amazing - when we started planning our wedding I was really worried about this, since cooking for a huge crowd can be a challenge, but their chef and kitchen team did an amazing job. The waitstaff was friendly and professional, and our server made sure we were taken care of all evening long. The bartenders were a lot of fun - I spent some time chatting with one of them, and he was great - very friendly and funny. The manager who was helping us at our send-off breakfast was also wonderful. We've had non-stop compliments from our friends and family about how much they enjoyed the wedding, how wonderful the food was, and how much they loved the Hotel. The Hotel itself is beautiful and very elegant. The ballroom is such a lovely room, and didn't need any decoration to look perfect. The Atrium is such a special space that the Hotel has - it's absolutely beautiful with all the plants, and it makes for a nice escape for people who need to step away from the music and the party for a few minutes. Plus, Northampton is a great town with a lot of fun restaurants and activities, for guests who want to make a weekend of the wedding. I'm so glad that we chose the Hotel Northampton for our venue, everything was perfect, we had an amazing time, and we have so many happy memories that we will treasure forever.

the food was DELICIOUS! I can't say enough about this venue

d it is already so perfectly decorated that it provides a perfect backdrop for your ceremony, reception, wedding photos and more. Kelly the wedding coordinator at Hotel Northampton is a gift to all she works with and makes every piece of the planning process a breeze. Kelly and the team at Hotel Northampton are dedicated to providing the highest quality service and attention for your special day and all the days leading up to it. Included in our package was a stunning bridal suite where many of my bridal shots were taken and a safe haven where my new husband and I retreated to after our we hung up our dancing shoes! All of our guests complimented us on the beauty of the venue, the incredible food, and the helpfulness and sincerity of all Hotel Northampton staff. My husband and I wish we could relive our wedding day again and again because the Hotel Northampton gave us a dream wedding we will always remember and cherish. If you're lucky enough to hold your wedding at Hotel Northampton, you will not be disappointed. Thank you again to the Hotel Northampton, Kelly and all those who contributed to our day for helping us begin our new life together on such a beautiful note. You simply won't find a more beautiful venue or a more dedicated planning team so please be sure to choose the Hotel Northampton! :)

r wedding next to headache free. They were beyond flexible with our outrageous requests. Everything from the rehearsal to the last second of our wedding was almost flawless. They allowed us to have a candy bar, a hot chocolate bar, a coffee bar. They set everything thing up better than we imagined. The bridal suite was perfect. The only thing we wished we had known earlier was that the wedding planners were leaving right after they ate. There were a few hiccups that were expected. One of the tables were missing a chair and it took over 10 minutes to get them a chair since it was only the wait staff we could find. And unfortunately the same guest got skipped for their meal. When they did eventually bring his steak out, it was very very very raw. Also maybe it was our mistake having a just kids table, but the meals there were all messed up. Some people did get the wrong meals. I feel like if maybe the planners had stayed, myself and my husband wouldn't have had to smooth this over during our reception and could have sat down and enjoyed our food. Besides that, I would 100% use this venue again.

Ruby and Kelly throughout my wedding process and they were extremely responsive and helpful to my questions. They also did a great job decorating. I had fall mason jars with tealights and other personal touches throughout the venue and Ruby did such a great job with my vision and how I wanted everything to look. They offer a wide variety of food options to pick from and all of them were delicious. My guests said they thought the food was excellent and were very impressed that it came out hot! A lot of other wedding venues serve the food lukewarm but our food was absolutely perfect! Although it's more expensive than other venues in the area, you really get a lot for your money and it was well worth it for us. I would recommend the Hotel to all engaged couples - you won't be sorry!

d all concerns my husband and I had! From start to finish Ruby and Kelly helped us with every single one of our concerns and I never had to wait longer than 12 hrs for a response. I can't speak any higher of these two! The rest of the staff at the Hotel Northampton was extraordinary! We are still receiving compliments and letters from our guests telling us how amazing the food, service, and how smoothly the night went! Everyone worked so well together and really made us feel so important and did everything to make our night more than we ever thought it could be! I couldn't be more serious when I saw our night was honestly perfect. There wasn't one thing that went wrong and I don't know many brides that could say that. I would recommend this venue to anyone who is getting married! I couldn't speak more highly of the Hotel Northampton!

ed the deal for our venue choice. In the midst of our planning, that person left the hotel and we began to work with someone new, Kelly, who was amazing to work with as well. She followed up quickly on every detail and made great suggestions when we struggled with our decisions. She was extremely kind, professional and thoughtful. Thank you! The hotel itself is beautiful and our guests were very happy with the accommodations. We had over 50 guests stay overnight and many came in to town the night before and loved that they could walk around town and find many great places to eat, shop and enjoy the culture. The Chamber of Commerce was great and gave us maps of the area to share in our gift bags for our guests staying at the hotel. We had our ceremony at the hotel in the grand ballroom which is beautiful and then the staff quickly "flipped" the room to the reception set up while our guests enjoyed appetizers and drinks during the cocktail hour. The transformation was seamless. We had access to a large hospitality room to get ready and served us beverages and appetizers after the ceremony while we "regrouped". The hotel has an excellent list of vendors that they work with exclusively which made the choices easy and we were very happy with their services. Our day was amazing and went off without a hitch...if there was one, we never knew about it and we didn't hear any complaints! Our guests have told us over and over that they had a great time. Everything was perfect and we would recommend The Hotel Northampton to anyone for their wedding venue! Thank you again to Kelly, Ruby, Hilda, Hilary and the entire staff.

h Kelly and Ruby made our wedding day one that we will never forget. All of our guests raved about how delicious the food was and how beautiful the room looked. The fact that the Hotel Northampton works so closely with all your vendors and takes care of every detail, makes the wedding planning process so simple. We are so happy we chose the Hotel Northampton, and we would definitely recommend it as a wedding venue!

ittle thing. The packages were very reasonable for the amount of service that comes with it. And the food was fantastic. The entire time all of our guests kept commenting on the great service and how friendly everyone was. My husband and I have always loved Northampton, and our wedding at the Hotel solidifies this even more. It was perfect because we never had to leave the hotel - our reception was in the room downstairs (much prettier than expected considering it's practically in the basement) and our reception in the ballroom above, which is absolutely gorgeous. We did pictures in front of the hotel which has a beautiful 'old New England' feel without feeling old at all. I cannot say enough good things about the hotel staff. We had an issue with the bridal suite on the day of the rehearsal. I, as a bride the day before her wedding, did not handle it with much grace. The hotel was amazing though. They set us up in a separate room while they fixed the issue in the bridal suite, then moved our bags over once the room was ready. I was in the bridal suite that night and thought nothing of it the rest of the weekend. The hotel provides a large conference room to get ready. We had our hair and make up done at the salon but we were able to come back and spread out while we got the last of our things together. We were also able to come back after the ceremony and sample some of the passed hors devours before we took pictures. That was a really nice touch. All in all, I cannot think of one problem we had the day of the wedding. Everything was absolutely perfect and if I had to do it again I would always pick the Hotel Northampton.

ments on our wedding. Is was everything I had dreamed it would be and more. Would definitely recommend the hotel northampton to any bride!

tures. The hotel staff was friendly and truly wanted to make our stay and our daughter's wedding perfect. Food was awesome and generous portions. Overall a great weekend and great experience.

and fun, she was unbelievably helpful and extremely knowledgeable about planning weddings, local venders, etc. We purchased their Imperial Affair package and she took care of so many things (Limo, cake, flowers) that I found planning to be a breeze. On the day of everything went off without a hitch, the bridal suite was well stocked and included our own server. I got nothing but positive reviews from my guests about the cocktail hour, the hors d'oeuvres, the room, and the actual dinner. We had open bar and we found it to be well stocked and the bartenders were fast and pleasant. Everything was as I expected it to be – even our special requests (small table in bathroom for hospitality basket, certain brand of champagne at the bar, spot for photo booth in atrium) were all taken care of with a smile. I would highly recommend this venue to other couples that are in the planning process.

ful suggestions and is a pleasure to work with. The hotel staff did an excellent job setting everything up. The venue looked beautiful, the food was great and the service was excellent. Our guests had a great time at the wedding, really enjoyed their overnight accommodations at the hotel and loved being in downtown Northampton.

ommodations were great and many guests remarked on how great the service in the hotel and restaurants was. I have to say maybe the best thing about planning our wedding at the Hotel Northampton was Brianne!! Brianne planned our event and made sure everything was executed perfectly, her attention to detail and creative ideas were most appreciated. Though she nor anyone at the hotel ever said this, I think I was a pretty demanding bride with a very specific vision of how the day would go... with Brianne in charge I knew everything would be perfect, and it was! We are now 6 weeks out from the wedding and I still have guests telling me it was the best wedding they've been to and how good the food was at the hotel - everything was so great! If you have your wedding at the hotel Northampton with Brianne in charge you will not be disappointed!

were the wedding coordinators. I was far more impressed with Brianne Ebel, the wedding coordinator at the Hotel Northampton, and she really was the deciding factor in selecting the Hotel for our reception. Brianne made a very stressful time much less stressful by offering suggestions and bringing up things we would have never thought of, and always had a positive attitude -- we always left feeling better than we had after talking to her. She would get back to us right away if we had questions, and periodically checked in with us to see how things were going. The day before the wedding, we gave her some items to be displayed the following day, and she did such an amazing job putting together some things that were a little out of the ordinary. We were very pleased with the presentation of the special items. As for the reception itself, the ballroom was beautiful, the food was excellent, and many of our guests commented that it was the nicest wedding they had ever attended. Our waiter, Ian, was AMAZING - he had a great sense of humor and was very attentive to all of our (the bridal party) needs throughout the evening. I have no doubt in my mind that we chose the right place for our reception. Trust me when I say Brianne is the best - you won't have any worries when you are in her hands!

t from their competitors. Other venues have similar packages and all have their own unique points, but Brianne was able to walk us through the day and help us envision our late summer 2014 event all at the first meeting. While contemplating our meeting along with other options, Brianne reached out to us and was able peak our interest in the Hotel Northampton. While other vendors might retract and disappear until shortly before the wedding, Brianne was in touch with us periodically helping to guide us through the process of selecting options and planning the overall day. The last few weeks before the event were very fast paced and she was able to help us along the path, giving ideas and helping us prioritize what is really important for the big day. In addition, Brianne was able to coordinate with other vendors for our event. The meeting with her the day before the reception to pass on items for the set-up is where you know for sure that you're in good hands. The little details that we tried to convey were noted and acted up by Brianne. She and the staff did a great job with the set-up of our items for the cocktail hour and reception. Upon arriving at the hotel during cocktail hour, we had Brianne guide us on our way to the hospitality suite and around for photos. Brianne was there every step of the way right though the ballroom door for our introduction to our guests. The staff of the hotel was amazing as well. Everyone from the clerks, wait staff, and bartenders were phenomenal. Our meal was great so their kitchen staff deserves a big thank you for making the reception all that more pleasant. We had the bridal suite for the night complete with champagne and snacks. The hotel did a wonderful job for our event, even accommodating our request of taking down the exterior brunch banner for the day of our event. There really isn't much more to say about the wonderful service that we were provided by Brianne Ebel and the Hotel Northampton. If we had to do it again, we wouldn’t change a thing about choosing this remarkable venue.

the table barely able to function. Brianne and my mother in law went over the final details as I knodded my head. I remember saying to Brianne " At this point I don't care, exhausted from being sick. Brianne reassured me my big day would be exactly how I dreamt it to be. She did not let me down. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. Definitely would go there if I was hosting a function. Good luck brides.

nd was such a huge help from start to finish.
