Expectations far exceeded!
We could not have been happier with our wedding at the Plimoth Patuxet Museum. We had the perfect June day with a ceremony in the stunning Hornblower Garden, followed by a beautiful and DELICIOUS reception in the Peabody Pavilion and tent. Service was impeccable and the food far exceeded our expectations. We literally could not ask for more! Thank you David Sheehy and team!!! -

Having our wedding at Plimoth Patuxet was one of the best decisions we made. David was incredibly organized, responsive, and helpful—he answered all my (many!) questions promptly and made the entire planning process effortless.
The garden ceremony site was absolutely stunning and felt so private and intimate—it couldn’t have been more perfect. We’ve received countless compliments on the food, especially the beef short rib, which was a guest favorite!
We’re so grateful to David and his team for going above and beyond to make our day truly seamless and unforgettable.

I can't say enough good things about the team at Plimoth Patuxet. David, Shauna, and the entire Plentiful Events staff were warm, positive, and professional from beginning to end. The Hornblower Garden is truly gorgeous--it feels like you are getting married in a secret garden. The team makes sure that everything runs smoothly and my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing! The value is also really good for the area. Our guests talked about how much they loved the food and ambiance. Would definitely recommend! -

Plimoth Patuxet Museum was the perfect venue for my daughter’s June wedding! The task of hosting a wedding can be daunting; however, David and his staff at Plentiful Catering were outstanding. From our initial visit to the wedding day, David was exceptional with his attention to every detail and service. His expertise and professionalism were superb. We felt at ease throughout the entire planning process. He answered all of our questions with patience and humor. Honestly, we would have been lost without him!
The reception was held at the Peabody Pavilion and it was simply beautiful. In addition to the hydrangeas being in full bloom and the view of the Eel River, guests enjoyed the choice of either joining the dance floor or sitting by the fireplace. The buffett choices were all outstanding. Many guests commented on how good the food was and how much they loved the venue. If you are looking to host a stress free wedding, with a beautiful view and delicious food, look no further than Plimoth Patuxet Museum. You and your guests will be delighted you did! -

Patrice Sent on 10/25/2024Absolutely would recommend!!! The venue beautiful! Affordable! Food excellent!
David Sheehey and all his staff was very easy to work with. Responsive, patient, knowledgeable, pleasant and fun! He made suggestions to make things flow better, was not critical of any ideas, so positive! He provided options to maximize the guest experience while staying within budget constraints. The venue itself was gorgeous! We used the Peabody Pavilion and included the extra tulle and lights on the tent! David lit the patio fireplace which was perfect for photos! So many photo opportunities with the barn, the Hornblower garden, the Eel River in the background. The food was delicious and they were very flexible with guests with dietary restrictions. The outside vendors they recommended were also fantastic! I highly recommend this beautiful venue. -

Erin Sent on 10/25/2024Perfect from start to finish
Even from our first meeting with David, we knew this venue was perfect! He made us feel so at ease through the whole planning process and helped us create the perfect day.
On the day of the wedding, the staff was so unbelievably lovely and attentive to both my husband and I are our guests, serving up incredible food (best vegetarian option I have ever had, I’ve been trying to recreate that acorn squash dish for weeks!) and providing excellent service overall. Our attendant Tabitha was so good to us, bringing us apps during our cocktail hour photos and keeping our food warm while we finished pictures during dinner. We knew our wedding would be great just because the location was so beautiful, but the kindness of the staff brought it to a whole new level! Thank you! -

Staff was a pleasure to work with. Professional, knowledgeable, and experienced in setup, coordination and timing. My daughter's wedding was perfect in every way - every time I looked over she was beaming! The Event Coordinator, David, and his staff made sure that everything came together as we planned and envisioned. We had a stress-free day. It was truly perfect- we wouldn't have changed a thing! -

Best venue
The plimoth patuxet was by far the best venue we looked at during our venue hunt. The 2 venue areas they offer were absolutely stunning. The management staff at the facility were unmatched and carried the highest level of professionalism and kindness through our entire wedding planning process. David the sales manager was one of the best people we encountered during our wedding planning experience. This venue went above and beyond to lay out everything they offer and make your big day go off without a hitch. They have it down to a true science of planning and presenting the most beautiful venue possible. Every one of our guests was blown away with the beauty and ease the staff and venue provided. When shopping around for wedding venues we saw how easy it was for the price to rise. The package that the plimoth patuxet offers was by far the most “bang for your buck” and affordable. This venue deserves 10 stars for how amazing they were to work with and the beauty it has to offer. -

Isabella Sent on 08/09/2024A big thanks to David and the Plimoth Patuxet Team!
My husband and I got married at Plimoth Patuxet on August 3 and we cannot thank David and his team enough for the seamless process and personable experience we had. David made this past 9 months of planning so streamlined for us, especially since we did most of the planning virtually as I am currently living in Canada. They partner with top line vendors in the area that know the space so well (shout out to Kevin, Ryan, DJMaggs, JN Floral Design, Berry Photos). Awesome team of people who all communicate professionally and clearly are passionate about what they do. I can actually say i am sad that the process is over, largely because of the partnerships we cultivated with the vendors. A special mention to David, our day of coordinate and the event coordinator at the venue. David is truly one of the most lovely people I have met. He is thorough, thoughtful, personable, professional, and he makes you feel like one of a kind. Thank you David for all that you do, the glowing reviews about him are all true- can confirm! -

David and his team made the wedding planning process as low stress as possible from start to finish. They ensured our wedding day went seamlessly and we truly felt like guests of honor. From helping us coordinate having our two dogs walk down the aisle to tracking us down during dinner to ensure we were able to eat, no task was too big or small. It is obvious they have done countless weddings and seen it all so it was easy to put our trust in them and they ensured we had a perfect day. Our guests complimented us on the gorgeous setting, great food, friendly bartenders, and excellent service all around. We are so appreciative of everyone at Plimouth Patuxet! Thank you for the best experience! -

Jackie Sent on 10/07/2023Incredible Wedding Experience
We are so grateful to David and the whole Pilmouth Patuxet Museum team for bringing our dream to life. I can't imagine having our wedding anywhere else. The venue is not only stunning on a beautiful day, but even on a rainy day such as ours, it was simply a vision. David was a dream to work with - he was helpful every step of the way from our walk through, to answering our questions along the way, doting on us at both the tasting and on the big day making sure we had food/drink, checking in on us and being a part of our celebration. I wish we could get married again just to work with him and spend time there. Look no further for a venue - this is the one! -

Jesse Sent on 08/06/2023I Can't Recommend This Venue Enough!
This venue was in house which made everything so easy! I absolutely had the best experience working with David and his team! They made everything go so smoothly on the big day. I kept telling David he is now part of my family! He was amazing! Answered all my questions and pulled out all the stops for us! He checked in with us throughout the year and help lessen my anxiety. It rained on our day so our ceremony space was moved inside but not to worry David and his team had it covered. David, we love you! Thanks for everything you have done for us. We will forever be grateful.Plentiful Events at Plimoth Patuxet Museums's reply:

A Dream Come True
My husband and I had a micro wedding at Plymouth Patuxet in mid April and it was an absolute dream! From the first point of contact to several weeks later, David and the team made the process blissful. We were working with a tight timeline (late January to April) and we got so lucky to have find an open date. Even though, I was in Texas David was incredibly responsive and partner with us to bring our understated and elegant day to life. From a personalized dinner to a private toast following a ceremony - I could not imagine a more perfect day. the entire team was attentive and felt more like family by the end of the process. The venue was gorgeous and the furniture was elegant. The view from Gainsborough Hall was breathtaking and we had a beautiful early spring day. And the food - elegantly plated and mouthwatering.
However, the magic of the day was in the details. The staff at Plimoth Patuxet knew what we needed before we did. No detail was overlooked and I never felt rushed. They were all supportive and I wish I could relive the day over and over.
I cannot say enough good things about a David and his team. So I will end with this: if you are fortunate enough to fine an opening at Plimoth Patuxet, jump on it! You will not be disappointed.
Thank you David for giving us the day of our dreams! -

Dream Wedding Come True!
I cannot begin to say enough about Plentiful Catering and Plimoth Patuxet staff! They really did make our dream wedding come true. David was beyond amazing and he was there every step of the way in the planning process, he was always available to help with anything we needed and never made us feel like we were a bother to him. No question was ever too small and he made sure the day went perfectly, we can't imagine what the day would have been like without him! The Hornblower Garden in September was an absolute fairytale for the ceremony and the Gainsborough Hall was the perfect intimate reception site, we were lucky enough to not have rain day of but they were well prepared if we needed to quickly switch the ceremony to an indoor setting. We received compliments for weeks following the wedding about how delicious the food was as well, we chose the stations options and there was such a variety that everyone was pleased. They were also very accommodating with our guests who had food allergies. They were budget friendly compared to most venues we viewed, especially with how much they have to offer. If we could do it all over again we would pick them a thousand times over! -

Outstanding
We got married at the Plymouth Patuxet on 9/23/22. This was a dream location for us since we are from the area! We have always wanted to get married here as it is special and unique location offering excellent wedding packages, view, food and service. Most of our friends from Plymouth have gotten married here as well and it truly stands up to its great reputation. David the event coordinator is extremely personable, responsible and makes sure every detail is covered. He has great ideas that worked well with our vision because he is so familiar and experienced with the venue. Our wedding day was a little chilly, but guests were warm because he made sure the site was prepared for that beforehand. Guests couldn’t stop raving about the food and the stations packaged allowed everyone what they wanted and unlimited amounts. Uplighting and tent are newly renovated. The fireplace area is beautiful to take pictures with guests and enjoy cocktail hour. We did all of our photos on site as well to take advantage of the photo ops with the barn and backdrop of ocean views. Overall an amazing unforgettable experience! Not one complaint!Plentiful Events at Plimoth Patuxet Museums's reply:

Dustin Sent on 12/03/2022A perfect day with a perfect venue
Plimoth patuxket was an absolute dream of a venue. We wanted to do something small, but after doing the usual run through of invites and talking to family we had to go big or go home. With that, came a need to find a partner in our venue to take the pressure off finding every single detail. David and the team made sure we had all of our needs met and let us focus on the big day. As a couple with some more theatrical requirements than most, they let us play with their standard routine and made for a night that so many of our guests have said was a PERFECT wedding. From the food to the staff (Shout out to Diane!) we were always taken care of and with everything under the venue umbrella taken care of, we got to be present during every moment. All this and the place is absolutely GORGEOUS, we had perfect weather for mid October and getting to be outside for the ceremony and dance the night away in the pavillion made for a truly unique experiencing a lot of venues could never have delivered. Would recommend them 100 times over and have done so already to some close friends and family. Thank you for making our day absolutely PERFECT!!! -

A beautiful hidden gem! Highly Recommend!!
I got married at Plimoth Plantation on October 30th and cannot say enough amazing things about this venue and the staff. First, Massachusetts had a Nor'easter three days before my wedding that blew out the power in many towns across the state including Plymouth. Needless to say I was very stressed and nervous that my wedding could not happen since the venue had no power. Thursday night before my wedding I get a call from David, who is truly amazing, letting me know everything can go on as planned and that they rented a generator. I honestly cannot say enough about David and the rest of the staff (Liz, Erin, Anna, Julie, Kimberly etc.) They ALL went above an beyond and offered 5 star service to me and my guests. David is the type of wedding coordinator you dream about for your wedding. When I first met him I knew I was in good hands. I say that this is a beautiful hidden gem because it truly is. The staff, the beautiful venue, the affordableness; it is everything you want in a wedding and more. I highly recommend if you are in search of a venue in the South Shore. You will not be disappointed, especially if you are one of the lucky ones to have David work your wedding. Thank you all for an incredible evening! It is definitely one to remember!!Plentiful Events at Plimoth Patuxet Museums's reply:

Jenna Sent on 09/23/2021Best kept secret
If you are thinking about booking your wedding here...DO IT! Truly the best kept secret on the South Shore. First off, the venue itself is STUNNING. My husband and I got married in the garden with our reception in the Pavilion. So beautiful and you really do not need to do much to the ceremony space to make it look like a wedding. The Pavilion has beautiful views, gorgeous flowers and the stunning fireplace was the perfect addition. I kept looking around on my wedding night thinking wow this is so beautiful. The staff is incredible. Before the wedding they kept us well in the loop with every update from the governor. I had friends get screwed during COVID but the staff at Plimoth Plantation was great to work with and were even more lenient with the contract in our favor. We ere so lucky to have David as our wedding coordinator and he was AMAZING! Great at coordinating all the details and making sure that everything runs smoothly. He was even ready to step in as our officiant when ours was running late. He went above and beyond always making sure ourselves and our families had a drink and were doing okay. He even came over with blue cheese for us after one of the speeches talked about how much we love blue cheese as a couple. It was all the small details that made such a big difference. I cannot say enough good things about David and the rest of the staff. They even danced with us at the end of the night! The food is AMAZING. We got so many compliments about the food starting with the appetizers, entrees and late night pizza. Overall our guests were very impressed and many people said the best wedding they have been too. One guest even said this was better than the Castle Hill wedding they had just went to. So happy with our experience here. The best part is you can take your kids here in the future. It will always be therePlentiful Events at Plimoth Patuxet Museums's reply:
Thank you Jenna! It was so great to be part of your special day. That's what keeps us going and why we are in this business - to make sure you and Jonathan have the best day to celebrate your love and your family! -

Perfect Wedding
My daughter had her vow renewal and reception at the Plimoth Plantation on July 31, 2021. Originally scheduled for June 2020, Covid changed our plans. Through all of the changes, the staff stepped up and were so helpful and supportive. The venue is beautiful. The ceremony was at the Peabody Pavilion, right on the water with a beautiful tent and stone fireplace patio.
We had several folks help us out (Liz and Erin in the office were there for all my daughters questions and were responsive, friendly and put us at ease). Our day of coordinator, David Sheehy, was nothing short of amazing. He was there for us from the rehearsal right until the end of the event. There were several wardrobe malfunctions (including the brides bustle button falling off, David was there and on his knees fixing it in a flash). He was also the king of dealing with the sassy bridesmaids in our group (they loved him as well).
All of the staff, bartenders, waitstaff (and the Pilgrims who joined us for cocktail hour - Suzanna Winslow and John Bradford) were incredible. I wish I got all the names, but Julie and Michael (servers) were standouts for me and my family. We had such a good time with them and they were amazing. One of the bartenders (I think known as Moose) who's name I forgot, had my drink down after the first one and made sure I never waited in line the entire night. They made excellent drinks and our family and friends were so impressed.
The food was outstanding from the cheese display and appetizers to the main course and cake, I've had several people tell me it was the best wedding dinner they ever had. We also had the late night snack (pretzels with dipping sauces and hot beer cheese - delicious). I would highly recommend the Plimoth plantation - we did shop other venues, you won't find a better deal or better people to make your special day amazing. -

We feel so blessed we got to have the experience we did at PP. Our ceremony was in the garden and the reception was in the Pavillon.

Peabody Pavilion hosted 165 guests for our wedding.
David was a wonderful event manager during the 2 weeks leading up to our day, and on the evening-of. He put me at ease, took some of my planning load, and made sure I had checked all of my boxes. He is a professional. Our celebration was wonderful, thanks in big part to him.
The venue itself was excellent for our family and friends. The tent, with 18 round tables (about 10 guests at each) did not feel crowded. Our entertainment had plenty of space to set up in the building with bar and dance space. Also, plenty of room. The outdoor patio area was picture perfect with a seating area and roaring fire. The view of the bay, very pretty.
Cocktail hour and dinner service was wonderful, The food came out quick, hot, and delicious. Drinks were plentiful. Service was very good. Cake by the plantation partner, Veronica's Sweetcakes, was beyond delicious.
The grounds and building were clean and comfortable.
Plimoth Plantation offered us an exceptional value and gave us a fairy-tale evening. -

Absolute perfection
Exceeded expectations beyond belief!! The husband had to convince me to look here and it was the BEST decision we ever made! It was so fun hearing our family and friends say how they can’t believe their old field trip destination is this hidden gem! From start to finish Plimoth was a dream to work with. To start you can’t beat their food and beverage package, coupled with their absolutely stunning backdrops for ceremonies—which are hard to choose from because both are gorgeous—and the Peabody Pavilion reception space. Diane and your day of coordinator (shoutout to Alex!) make sure you are absolutely stress free leading up to the day! The group food tasting/Q&A were amazing and took the guesswork out of planning, I highly recommend attending to save yourself several emails:) The food is delicious, the bar beverage options are endless, and the bride and groom don’t have to lift a finger the day of—Alex took phenomenal care of us and made sure we stayed on track with the evening agenda. It was the PERFECT summer evening, cigar bar, fireplace, dancing and all. We can’t recommend it enough!! Thank you Plimoth for an unforgettable experience! -

Morgan Sent on 11/28/2017We had a dream wedding at Plimoth Plantation. It exceeded our expectations in beauty, service and value. We had our ceremony in the Hornblower Garden in July, and it was absolutely stunning; like an enchanted forest. The photos came out stunning. As for the service; everyone we dealt with was fantastic -- especially Diane and Erin. Thank you for making our decision so smooth! They were so organized and guided us every step of the way. Our guests raved about the garden and Gainsborough Hall, where we had our reception. The food, in particular, was outstanding. We are still getting compliments (we had the swordfish and the beef). Oh, and we 'rented' two pilgrims to socialize in-character during the cocktail hour. So fun! We are so grateful we could get married here, and highly recommend to anyone looking for a New England wedding!

Where do I even begin!? Our wedding At Plimoth Plantation was nothing short of perfect. We had a River View ceremony with our reception in the Peabody Pavilion. The grounds where absolutely gorgeous. With the pavilion, tent and outdoor fire place area, there was so much space for our guests to enjoy. Our coordinator was David. He went above and beyond to make our evening special. He was always at the right place at the right time. We felt very confident with his services. (Our rehearsal dinner was also held at Plimoth Plantation, which was another perfect evening that David helped us with.) When our food came to our table David came to us to let us know and urged us to sit and enjoy, and boy did we. The food at Plimoth Plantation is absolutely delicious- my husband and I received many compliments throughout the night from our guests. Some guests even said it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding! My husband and I would have to agree! I don’t have one negative thing to say about our experience! Diane Cox, the event coordinator is very informative and prompt when answering emails. -

Our guests are still ranting and raving!
Plimoth Plantation checked off all of our boxes when it came to the perfect wedding venue! We lucked out with a beautiful day so we were able to have our ceremony in the Hornblower Garden. I recommend the bride come down from the hidden staircase, it was an added bonus to be able to watch my guests enjoy themselves and see the procession while no one knew I was up there, a grand entrance for sure! The venue could benefit from having some more signs to direct people as a handful of our guests had problems finding exactly where to go, its a hidden gem in more ways than one! Our reception was held in the Peabody Pavilion which was also gorgeous and added a whole new atmosphere. They recently built a stone patio and fire pit are that extends from the pavilion towards the water, my guests immediately flocked there after dinner. It was beautiful. The venue is multi-dynamic in that your guests can enjoy themselves out on the dance floor or hang by the fire pit to enjoy or hang by some of the conversation tables that were scattered along to be a part of all the action, there was truly something for everyone. The food was amazing and the bartenders kept up with the demand of 170 guests with ease.
We were shocked with how reasonable to price was too! All of their packages were inclusive meaning that you didn't have to worry about hidden costs and they all even included open bar! This was important to us because my husband and I both knew if open bar wasn't included we would probably add it on in the end and then have to adjust out budget. We worked with David and he was great, he made sure that the fire was going all night, that we stayed on schedule, and the night went on without a glitch!
My only warning would be to couples to not get too anxious with the venue planning timeline. Once you book the venue you really don't have much communication with them until right before the wedding, like a week or two out. They're responsive if you have any questions but this is something they do all the time so trust in that but I did find myself a little stressed not having much information until it was almost 'go time'. I would also say they could expand more on their food tasting. They only have one food tasting a year for all of the couples. There were plenty of appetizers and sides to try however there was only one beef, one chicken, one seafood, pork, and vegetarian to try which made it tough to decide which chicken or what not to choose when you had nothing of them same to compare it to. I have been to other food tastings with friends and definitely see some room for improvement there.
All in all I would recommend Plimoth Plantation 10 times out of 10. It sounds cliche but we still have guests coming up to us and saying that our wedding was the best they had ever been to and that is thanks to the staff!Plentiful Events at Plimoth Patuxet Museums's reply:

Linda Sent on 06/14/2018I contacted PP in April of 2017 to book an August wedding in 2018, They were already completely booked for Saturday weddings which speaks for itself. I decided to use the venue for my daughters bridal shower and I'm so happy we did. It was a beautiful spring day. We looked and booked the venue in November of 2017. I found the initial coordinator I worked with to be vague in the emails. I would shoot a few questions and only 1 would get answered then I would have to resend. She told me she would answer and finalize everything close to the date. I sent an email out to her 2 weeks prior to the event which came back to me stating she was on vacation. Her return to work day was 4 days prior to our event. I had a serious of things that needed to be address 2 weeks out. The contact person she gave me in her email, came back as an email demon. This was on a Friday Holiday WE which really was upsetting to me with no knowledge of any of this. I called on Tuesday and spoke to Liz who answered ALL of my questions. She was wonderful and instantly restored my faith in PP. Tracy and Erin were also amazing and so easy to communicate with. I have to give extra stars to David the day of coordinator and wait staff. He was so accommodating!!!! I was so nervous and he picked up on it and was so helpful. PP met my expectations and beyond. I had no idea the beautiful lights would be up and on and, or all of the recent remodeling with all the plantings, fire pit and patios. The food was hot and excellent with gorgeous presentation. The guests raved about everything, some even said it was like a wedding! Thank you Plimoth Plantation for making my daughters bridal shower beyond AMAZING!!! -

Although my wedding day was the most special, and wonderful day for me. There are some things that happened with Plimoth Plantation that I was not impressed with. The facility is beautiful. They were wonderful to start with. They answered all my emails and questions, it was great. We finally get to meet our coordinator, with plenty of time before the wedding. A little over a week before the wedding my coordinator told me she was scheduled for another event that night and had to re-assign me another coordinator. I was not an over the top bride, my details were minor, but I was still uncomfortable with this because I had not met this person, she was not an on-staff coordinator for Plimoth Plantation. I expressed my concerns, and we scheduled a meet and greet . I wanted to know the face of the person I should be looking for at the wedding. I went to the meet and greet, and the person couldn't be there, she had a knee injury. Now, I'm concerned - is she going to be okay for the wedding? Why wasn't I made aware of this before I came here for the meeting? We did a conference call, and everything seemed OK. She was nice over the phone. Then we get to the ceremony. My transportation ran late, so my 5pm start time ended up being around 5:15p. My Ceremony was exactly 9 minutes long, and we immediately started taking our pictures in the garden. So my allotted ceremony time was 30 minutes - 5pm-530pm, cocktail hour 530-630 . We started taking our pictures , and then at about six pm another family came into the garden. I had someone ask why they were there, and they had a six pm scheduled rehearsal. On my wedding night. I tried to move on and ignore the fact, because I technically paid for the garden until 630. The family is hovering, making me feel very awkward, then a woman came up to me told me to hurry up with my pictures because they were losing daylight.. I'm appalled at this point, trying to stay positive, but feeling so discourage I ended up leaving the garden and stopped taking pictures. I tried to tell the coordinator for my ceremony how upset I was about it, and she blamed it on me being late. Which 1. wasn't my fault, and 2. not even true, with my ceremony being 8/9 minutes long. I look at my pictures now, and I can just see where my frustration started, and I can see that I did not get as many as I wanted with my husband. Although my day was obviously the best day of my life, I did not feel like a priority to this venue. When we tried to tell them how we felt, the apology was insincere and felt like my problems were almost swept under the rug. I hope that something like this does not happen to someone else on the most important day of their life.
