We got married in July 2021 at Wequassett Resort and it was a spectacular experience. Every single detail of our wedding was planned and executed to perfection and although there ...were other events occurring at the resort that weekend, we still felt as if we had the place to ourselves and were treated like royalty. My husband and I had considered having a micro wedding or going to City Hall, but upon visiting Wequassett "just to look", we knew we had to get married there. We are completely thrilled with our decision and could not have asked for a better experience.
First, the setting and scenery at Wequassett are the best on Cape Cod. We loved being able to have our ceremony near the water with a gorgeous view of Pleasant Bay- without the difficulty of having a beach ceremony. Our out of town guests loved getting a feel of the coastal environment, without having to walk in sand (especially some of the elderly/mobility impaired guests). The views from the Pavilion and the Garden Terrace are breathtaking and our photos of the ocean, gardens, and grounds are stunning.
Next, the food at Wequassett Resort is amazing. We hosted our rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony and reception, post-wedding beach party/bonfire, and goodbye breakfast at Wequassett and each event was elegant but laid back, meticulously planned, and well-run. The food was delicious, fresh, and unique, without being pretentious or too unusual. Everyone raved about the food at the rehearsal dinner and reception, including the foodies and picky eaters.
Third, the staff at Wequassett is delightful and really went above and beyond to accommodate every request we made. They were friendly and approachable to everyone and extremely professional. Even though this is a 5-Star resort, no one ever exuded an air of snobbery or standoffishness that we have encountered elsewhere at upscale New England resorts. The set-up for the ceremony and reception was gorgeous and at the reception, the meal courses, toasts, dessert, and dancing were handled flawlessly.
Finally, we cannot thank our Wequassett Catering Manager/Event Coordinator Kalson Pang enough. I had read reviews on The Knot praising him, but even with that information, I was still blown away by how fantastic he was. Kalson has to be the most organized, detail-oriented person on the planet. He made the wedding planning process a breeze- so much so that I never felt the need to hire an outside event planner. He guided us through the planning process with expertise and helped us make decisions without ever embarrassing us for our lack of knowledge or making us feel stressed. He ran the rehearsal dinner and wedding day with confidence and skill and took care of setting everything up, coordinating our vendors, and making us feel completely at ease. I felt so secure on my wedding day, knowing he had everything handled.
Overall, the experience was phenomenal and so much more than we could have ever hoped for. We would highly recommend Wequassett Resort.
To anyone considering getting married at Wequassett, DO IT! You won't regret it.
