The Wentworth, A White Mountain Inn

We (two brides) had our 105-person wedding at the Wentworth in August 2026, and we truly cannot recommend it highly enough as a venue! It's a phenomenally beautiful place with a stunning outdoor ceremony spot, gorgeous falls just a short walk away, and a really lovely reception tent surrounded by a garden and firepits. We wanted our wedding to feel full of nature and wildness, and it really did. All of our guests loved the inn and had comfortable, affordable, fun weekend stays, and having everyone in one place for the weekend meant that we really got to spend quality time with all of them. (There are also a lot of other hotel and Airbnb options within a 15-minute drive, so plenty of options for guests who want to stay somewhere else, too.) We keep hearing from everyone how much they loved the inn and what a special place it is. The food and drinks were all also really delicious and got rave reviews, and the Wentworth team was just a well-oiled machine in how they put together the wedding weekend. Our wedding was probably particularly challenging because we had an uncertain weather forecast right up until about 10 minutes before our ceremony, and Cita (the in-house wedding coordinator, who's an absolute star) and the rest of the team did an incredible job working and thinking quickly to move things around and let us wait until the last possible moment to decide whether we were going to go inside or outside. It poured and we ended up going inside, and it was just really beautiful and intimate in the gorgeous front room of the inn -- the rare venue where the rain plan is a wonderful option as well and not an afterthought. On the planning front, Cita and the rest of the team at the Wentworth was just great to work with the entire time. Everyone is really warm and accommodating and thoughtful and good at what they do, and Cita in particular is just great at making the magic happen. If you and your fiancee are busy people who don't want wedding planning to feel more stressful than it has to, this is the place to be. On that note, the venue is also right across the street from a really phenomenal baker (Autumn Nomad) and florist (Dutch Bloemen Winkel) who know the venue really well, so that was also a huge perk in terms of keeping the planning process streamlined. All to say, we couldn't have had a better experience and are so grateful to the Wentworth for making our wedding so perfect!

NB: I literally ran out of space writing this because we were so happy with this venue. Please know I could write another 5000 words of praise for The Wentworth, and this is an abridged review. We had a few specifics in mind for our venue when we started searching. We wanted: an all-inclusive place--food, hotel, dancing; something near a covered bridge; something where the setting spoke for itself, with not a lot of decorations needing to be shipped in; LGBTQ friendly; a good price; memorial day weekend; no other weddings on our weekend. We found all of this and more in the Wentworth. First of all, Cita could plan the invasion of Normandy, with less allied casualties. We had our own spreadsheets created and running for comparing venues because--hot tip for you couples just starting the process--venues don't tell you all the costs up front. They don't mention the catering, or the linens, or the "champagne toast" (some places charge for that!), &c. But a) The Wentworth doesn't charge any of that nonsense. There's a flat fee per plate, and that includes linens, chairs, toast, everything; and b) Cita sent us her OWN spreadsheet, complete with break-outs of the taxes, service fees, &c, which answered every single question our own spreadsheets had--plus some things we hadn't thought of! It was glorious. Literally from that moment we knew we wanted to go with the Wentworth. It's amazing how difficult so many venues make the basic cost breakdown process. Not the Wentworth. The location: could it be any more beautiful? We love covered bridges, and of course the Jackson Honeymoon bridge is less than a mile from the property (you drive through it if you're coming from the Conway area). It is a beautiful covered bridge with great photo opportunities, not to mention the entire village of Jackson is picturesque. We were so excited to invite our guests to converge on this location because we knew they would all be able to enjoy themselves in this quaint New England village nestled in the White Mountains. The Jackson falls just up the road from the Wentworth also made for some incredible photos. Not to mention the Wentworth itself, with its historical charm, beautiful landscaping, and big beautiful trees, made the perfect place for first looks. We had our wedding memorial day weekend, so basically the first wedding of the summer season. There had been a lot of rain the week leading up to the wedding but just in time the skies cleared and the Wentworth staff went to work. In a day and a half we watched as they refreshed and replanted all the annual flowers on the entire property: landscaping, box flowers, hanging flowers, everything. It was a Herculean effort and it was done just perfectly in time for our guests to arrive Friday for the Welcome Reception at the Wentworth's Alpine bar. Cita and the rest of the staff at the Wentworth know what they're doing hosting a wedding. They have storage space set aside for your signage and decor so you can easily stash and pull those out for when you need them. They know how to direct vendors to the tent out back (which was also refreshed and refab'd for our wedding, since it was the beginning of the season). Cita sat down with us before the weekend kicked off and went through hour-by-hour and item-by-item everything that was going to happen, double-checking all the details, even making last-minute changes at our request. Once done, we didn't have to worry for the rest of the weekend, everything was handled
