Squantum Association, Inc.

this venue. Their actions seem to indicate they only want your money, not to be a part of your wedding story.

ur guests are raving about the food too! Awesome place!

scaping the property and it shows. We received SO many compliments on our venue. It’s a hidden gem in RI! It’s completely different than anywhere you’ve ever been before, I promise! My husband and I did a first look on the private island behind the club house that was so magical. This allowed us to join our guests for cocktail hour up at the club house. The reception building is so unique and has these beautiful lanterns hanging down complete with an ocean view. It doesn’t get any better than that. Let’s talk about the food- they accommodated my vegan diet without me even having to ask, meaning they already have options available on the menu and they were delicious! I would order that meal again if I could! Not only that but our non vegan guests also commented that we had the best wedding food they have ever had, anywhere! Lauren our event coordinator was so attentive to my husband and I all night, she made sure my dress was how it was supposed to be moments from when I walked down the aisle, offered me drinks and snacks, checked in with us many times throughout the day, she is just wonderful and has 10 star customer service skills! If you are looking for an exceptional venue that has the complete package- great food, great service and absolutely beautiful landscaping and views for photos you need to book here. Trust me you won’t regret it!

ss free as it could be. We enjoyed terrific weather, dined on delicious food, and danced the night away! We’d recommend Squantum to anyone looking for a beautiful outdoor setting (and stunning indoor space) close to Providence!

, the water, a rock path leading to an island, the gorgeous architecture of the clubhouse, a dock, bridges and tons of greenery and beautiful landscaping to take pictures in front of. There were even a pair of swans hanging out in the water the day of the event. Once we chose the venue, although things started off a bit rocky (we were a little disappointed when we found out we wouldn’t be able to have fireworks at the event) they went WAY above and beyond to make sure we felt taken care of. The actual event could not have been more perfect, and it was in no small part due to the efforts of the staff and the management team at Squantum. Jon is super friendly, reasonable, easy to work with, and I really felt like he cared about making sure we were happy and wanting to work with us. On the day of the wedding, Lauren was incredibly attentive. Anything and everything we needed, she was there within seconds, making sure we had drinks or food, setting up champagne in our room while we were getting ready, and she worked really well with our wedding planner to make sure the event went smoothly. I don’t think we were the easiest of clients (I probably sent Lauren 20-30 emails the month or two before the event) but she was responsive and accommodating every time. The food was FANTASTIC. Wedding food can be hit or miss sometimes, but so many of our guests came up to us after dinner to comment on how delicious everything was. The chicken was moist, the steak was perfectly cooked, the vegetables were tender without being overcooked or soggy, and that level of quality and execution carried throughout the apps, the dessert bar and the late night snacks. We were blown away by the quality. Overall the day was perfect and we were completely thrilled with the venue and the staff and team. I could not recommend the venue more highly if you’re looking for a stellar experience in a gorgeous location.

ut all the information we needed, provided us with all the preferred vendors, but also they allowed up to bring in vendors from outside the preferred listing at no extra charge! Which was perfect because I had planned on having Krispe Kreme donuts delivered! They also personalized most of the details for us! They were open to changing the package around, adding on extra meals (even 1 week before the date), and allowed us to set up the decorations the way we wanted the night before! The package included all the tables, chairs, linens, silverware, meals, drinks, coordination, plus a pastry chef (Tina is AMAZING) ! It made my job as the Bride 100% easier! Also love that the venue was right off the water. The site was the perfect size for about 110 guests! Thank you Jon Prata, Lauren Lysak, and Tina Desrosiers for all your help! Matt and Katie

as a beautiful mix of everything I would want in a venue. It was by the water, private, beautiful and natural. There is a mansion club house with stained glass windows for cocktail hour, and a beautiful reception space with vaulted ceilings adorned with twinkle lights and modern chandeliers . The bar is completely modern with exposed brick and a beautiful view. The staff at Squantum are amazing. They did every single thing they could to ensure that my wedding day was perfect. Jon Prata (Club Manager) and Lauren Lysak (Events Coordinator) are both warm and genuine. I cannot say enough great things about them! They are truly amazing people! Let’s not forget about the FOOD! Every single guest told me how delicious the food was. They offer a variety of packages at an all-inclusive price! We were able to offer our guests an incredible experience with open bar and amazing food! Squantum was the perfect venue! We could not be happier!

ly. Working with Joe, Jon, and Lauren was so easy, and they helped alleviate all stress of wedding planning. A HUGE bonus of this place is the FLAT RATE. There are literally NO hidden fees (taxes, surcharges, tips, etc.). I cannot stress enough how easy that made our budgeting and financial planing. On the wedding day, the staff took care of EVERYTHING, and didn’t miss a single detail. All of the guests couldn’t stop talking about the service and food. The chef even came out to talk with guests! The Squantum Association will always hold a special place in my and my husband’s heart. We truly adore this place and the people.

ell the ocean, I knew it was going to be the place for our wedding. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and Jon,Lauren, and the chefs and staff were unbelievable. Our wedding was 100% perfect because of everything they did for us. The food is outstanding, the views are amazing, the venue is gorgeous and everything was awesome. I can’t say enough positive things about Squantum, if you are looking for an ocean wedding, look no further than here! You will fall in love with it as soon as you get there!

rounds are exceptionally beautiful and also historical. Our guests kept commenting that the location was a hidden gem and made for such a unique wedding. The other comments we continually heard was how delicious the food was (their package includes both an onsite chef and pastry chef).

ting us drinks, checking in with us, getting us extra apps when we didn't have a chance to eat any during the cocktail hour, etc) was much appreciated! I'd highly recommend this venue. You won't be disappointed.

s so easy going it made me nervous at first (there was turnover in this role this year so he was our third contact) but he didn't miss a beat. He responded quickly and off hours for every request, was knowledgeable about the food (he was a chef there for years before taking on this role), the facility and always said "yes" to every request! Jay Morris, his associate, was my right hand man the day of the wedding - he attended to every detail and made sure that my husband and I had everything we needed (a space to change after the wedding, a fresh cocktail, etc). Our friends raved about: 1) the location - which was a prime reason we chose Squantum - we live in Rumford, RI and wanted a water view, a rustic, unique venue, somewhere with a good backup space in the event of rain that's NOT the dance floor, and either close to home or hotels so folks can enjoy the open bar, 2) the food - we chose the filet and salmon and both were a big hit - our friends who are major foodies said it was delicious and HOT; they also loved the appetizers but as the bride, I was too busy hugging everyone to eat at that point :), 3) the service - the staff was fantastic and with little instruction perfectly executed my DIY decor while I was at home getting ready. Other details that were superb: Golf cart - parking is a bit far for those with heels or elderly - the gentleman driving the golf cart was fantastic and ready to help with transport at all times, Bridal Suite - my husband got ready on the property, the desserts - we ordered a cutting cake and mini-cupcakes and I was able to get various flavors and they were all DELICIOUS! Signature Drink - I picked a drink and sent Jon the recipe and they came out amazing, Now, the price. No doubt, it's pricey but after you look around you will find that it's comparable to the high end venue after you add in open bar, service fees, dessert, taxes, etc. and you don't have to stress about making decisions like top shelf v. mediocre bar or filet v. sirloin or floor length linens. The price is all inclusive so once you figure that it can work in your budget, there are no hidden costs. I had piece of mind that I knew the cost and could save accordingly and didn't fear that I needed extra money for a tent, service fees, chair rentals, etc later. My husband and I are sooo glad we looked at Squantum. After we saw all of the hidden fees of other places, we realized we could afford it and went to tour as our last option. We walked in the Bakehouse and signed out contract 10 minutes later. Who wouldn't want to get married 10 min from downtown in a venue that is over a 100 years old with simple yet pristine grounds on Narragansett Bay??!!!!

d I had a very busy engagement as we moved halfway across the country and started new jobs only a few months before the wedding, so I handled a lot of things last-minute, and Corentin was so helpful and helped keep me on track. At our wedding, he kept everything moving so smoothly, and everything looked beautiful. We had so many compliments on how the venue looked, and how amazing the food was, and what a great job the bartender was doing. Everything was perfect.

omenal! From the first email and information exchange to the evening of our wedding, everything was flawless due to them and their utmost professionalism. Our guests still cannot stop raving about the food and THE VIEWS. We had perfect weather which helped a lot but the 180 view of the water along with the breathtaking grounds, we really felt like royalty. With Squantim you really get what you pay for, exquisite food and service and the most beautiful location! Also, all of the details are included in the price per head costs which make things so simple. They really make the process absolutely perfect. We are so proud to have had our wedding at Squantum, it was truly a dream come true!!

uty of the venue, quality of the food, and amazing service. This is an amazing gem!

ensure all the details were taken care of. He was flexible in making our vision of our wedding become a reality and there wasn't anything he couldn't do. Our guests ranted and raved about the setting, the staff, the food and the experience as a whole. Thanks so much to Corentin and his staff for a perfect wedding day!!! Exceptional venue that takes all stress out of your wedding day!!! Amazing!

to accommodate any ideas we had for our wedding day. The venue itself is stunning and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding! You will not be disappointed if you choose to work with Corentin and the Squantum!

de between rustic and vintage, I wanted the venue to be conveniently located, the food to be good, and for the staff to take care of everything. I happened across Squantum on several wedding websites, and…Bingo. This venue has a rustic boathouse-looking structure for the reception, with the coolest bar. It’s right on the water and has a vintage, historic mansion where we took pictures before the ceremony. The shuttle was an easy 8-10 minute ride from downtown Providence. Not only was Squantum exactly what I was looking for, but the professionalism of Correntin and his staff exceeded expectations. Correntin was extremely responsive and easy to work with throughout the year. If he didn’t respond to my emails immediately, it couldn’t have ever taken him more than a day to get back to me. He was very flexible with whatever we envisioned. They let us put up any decorations we wanted, provided us with an easel and cake tier when we didn’t have one, and let us drop off several boxes of decorations two days before the wedding. I remember going to drop everything off and feeling like it was going to take forever to explain where everything went! Correntin and his staff were so organized and on the ball that we were out of there in 10 minutes. I’m pretty big on food and I have to say that the food was absolutely fantastic, especially the appetizers! Guests were talking about them weeks later. And trying everything at the bridal tasting added another fun wedding event that my whole family was able to attend! It was like a pre-wedding. This venue is so unique and beautiful all on its own, I felt like I didn’t even need to add that much in terms of flowers, signs, or decorations. There is so much unique space around the property…throughout our wedding night, I noticed people on the dance floor, at their tables, at the bar, on the outside patio, or walking around the grounds. And the price. People might think that Squantum is expensive at first glance, but all taxes and fees are included. Correntin makes it so easy. One of the reviews I read stated that Squantum is like a Newport wedding without the Newport prices. It’s so true. We really had the perfect day, in large part thanks to Correntin and his team. You really can’t go wrong booking with this venue, it absolutely cannot be beat. Thank you Correntin for making our day so perfect and stunning!

ackage! Corentin and his team from the start before AND after contracts were signed were incredibly helpful and responsive. Squantum has a multiple tiers of packages but what is so nice is you can customize your package however you want. We went with the Grand package, middle of the line and we added a couple items here and there, , we swapped the dessert buffet for a real cake for instance. Unlike most venue they really don't want to nickle and dime you, they want you to have YOUR dream wedding day. Corentin was a short email response away the entire time and he was incredibly fast in his responses. Our best man dropped off boxes of decorations the night BEFORE our rehearsal and Corentin and his team were about 90% done by rehearsal time (granted we were the Friday wedding of the week) and we were expecting to spend the evening after our rehearsal running around! I had emailed him a few weeks earlier to inform him our day of coordinator could no longer make it and he was able to step up and assure me it would be ok and he could help out where needed. Our guests are still informing us of how beautiful the venue is, how good the food was, how perfect the night's flow was and the awesome Surprise cannon shot we set off! I would highly recommend checking out Squantum if you are looking for a historic, waterside venue with amazing food and great staff.

ders are absolute rockstars and the waitstaff, along with table attendants are very professional. Tina's desserts are to die for, and Jon is the best chef ever!I love this place and would recommend it to everyone for any type of event, and hopefully dinner once it becomes public, since the food is out of this world! Thank you to all that work there, you made our day so very special and carefree. Our guests loved everything about it.

he day. Everyone that was present at my wedding, said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!

great indoor option for a ceremony in the event it rains. I couldn't be happier with this venue.

ur wedding over the course of the past year, and we can't express enough praise of his work and the work of other staff members. Our food was fantastic, the grounds were immaculate (and set the ambiance and vibe we wanted for our wedding), and the cake was by far the best wedding cake anyone had ever had! Tina, the pastry chef, is very talented! We will recommend The Squantum Association to family and friends and the future. We were thrilled with our special day!

cond wedding of the season and did encounter a few meal mishaps, mainly with the special orders due to allergies. They were handled expediently and professionally however, and the food is excellent! I recommend any bride that books with Squantum should have Tina (the associate pastry chef) make all their deserts and cake. She did our grooms cake, desert buffet and cupcake tower - everything was scrumptious. My only negative thought was that they didn't have enough bartenders on staff. We had an open bar and a guest list pushing 160, but they only had two bartenders. Corentin, the coordinator, really did a great job making sure my groom and I were happy and taken care of - as well as all the guests. I'd recommend this place to anyone getting married in the Rhode Island area.
