Book the barn and never look back!
Picking your wedding venue is an extremely personal decision that you likely won't make just from reading some good reviews, so this review is intended for couples who are already interested in The Red Lion Inn and need a little nudge to book. If you haven't already, schedule a tour, I can promise you that nothing I, or anyone, can say will be able to emulate the feeling you get upon entering the barn. It was a jaw dropping moment for my *husband* and I. We immediately knew that is where we wanted to get married and our search stopped there. Key factors other than the beauty of the barn that really sold us: the historical building offered a quintessential New England atmosphere; the hillside house provided us with a location to host our rehearsal dinner & ample getting ready space for the girls the morning of the wedding; the pool which we used for a little welcome party as guests arrived; the inn that had the perfect amount of rooms to accommodate the bridal party and our parents (all of which are from out of town and Cohasset has VERY limited hotel options); the cave which is where we had an after party (an absolute must, with late night snacks which the guests LOVED); and the staff! Samantha Loonie was our coordinator, and she honestly deserves her own review, she is amazing! I took this wedding on without hiring a planner and never felt overwhelmed or frazzled. Sam was always responsive, organized and her positive attitude is infectious. She isn't just there to look out for the venues best interest, she genuinely adores wedding planning. She kept everything running smoothly in the days leading up to the wedding and most importantly on the big day. I didn't leave a single instruction on how or where I wanted the wedding decor setup, and she NAILED it!! I could not have done a better job if I did it myself (not to mention how meticulously everything was packed back up after the wedding). Every and any silly little question or request I had was met with sincerity and a solution. I live really close by and she was always more than happy to skip the email chain and long phone calls in exchange for a face to face meeting (p.s. bring her a marylou's coffee if you appreciate her as much as I do); Andrew the inn keeper is straight out of a hallmark movie I swear, you can't not adore him and his incessant knowledge of the Inn. I always looked forward to chatting with him and he was always happy to take us on a tour whenever we dropped by; Michelle, who can be found at the front desk when Andrew is not, was incredible. Her personality left a mark on everyone who met her during our wedding weekend, she made me feel like the only bride who has ever walked those halls. She would drop anything and everything if I asked for her help with something; Last but certainly not least is Toufik, I did not have the pleasure of meeting him until the weekend of the wedding but he was the MVP! Not a single detail overlooked. He made sure from the moment we checked in that every single thing was perfect. From providing speakers for our little pool party to bringing my *husband* and I a private tray of hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour to ensure we got to try them all. I will never forget this small detail because how impactful it was but when the cake was rolled out after dinner Toufik made a point to spin it to face me when he saw my eyes light up, a simple act but it was so thoughtful. Sam & Toufik worked so hard (and VERY late) on the wedding night to pull off the perfect day. I knew I was in good hands, and I didn't have to worry about a thing. I could think a thought and BOOM one of them was there ready to help. They had cake and leftovers delivered to our room knowing most couples are too busy at the wedding to really indulge.
Other little tidbits:
-I highly recommend hiring a band for this venue, the acoustics in the barn are incredible (bonus points if you hire Groove Authority!)
-The bridal suite (room 13) has a private elevator! talk about penthouse vibes
-The food was AMAZING, and they accommodated us with an entirely gluten free wedding. Seriously every single thing.
I could keep going but I think this has served the purpose of highlighting how special this venue is. You will not feel like just another conveyor-belt wedding if you book at The Red Lion Inn. Their approach is refreshingly personal which is what the most special and intimate day of your life deserves.Picking your wedding venue is an extremely personal decision that you likely won't make just from reading some good reviews, so this review is intended for couples who are already interested in The Red Lion Inn and need a little nudge to book.

June 2023 wedding
Samantha Loonie was our wedding coordinator and truly went above and beyond from day one. On the day of everything was so organized and perfect. The staff at RLI were so good that guests were coming up to us saying how impressed they were by the service. The venue itself is also stunning, perfect for any season!Samantha Loonie was our wedding coordinator and truly went above and beyond from day one.

Highly recommend this venue for any special occasion!
We couldn't have chosen a better venue for our December 2023 wedding than the Red Lion Inn! Its charm and beauty were absolutely perfect for our winter celebration. Working with Sam leading up to the wedding was a dream; she was incredibly attentive, always providing solutions to our many questions and ensuring flawless execution on the big day. Toufik also played a vital role day of, ensuring our comfort and happiness throughout. We truly did not have to worry about one thing and were able to enjoy the day so much. The entire staff at the Red Lion Inn are so kind and genuinely care, making our experience truly unforgettable. Our guests were equally impressed by the atmosphere and delicious food.

Dream winter wedding
We worked with Krystel who truly made everything happen no matter the ask. From beautifully arranging my memorial table / DIY Photo Booth to making sure everyone with a food allergy had the right meal to everything in between she made our wedding absolutely perfect. The venue itself is cozy and beautiful and guests described the vibe as “feeling like a warm hug” which says it all. The food was incredible and everyone on the staff was attentive and ensured the wedding went according to plan. Best experience and would highly recommend to any future brides!We worked with Krystel who truly made everything happen no matter the ask.

Fantastic!
We had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at The Red Lion Inn over Thanksgiving weekend 2023! Words can’t describe how magical our day was. We can’t say enough good things about the entire process of wedding planning and the day itself. Our wedding coordinator Samantha Loonie guided us every step of the way making some of the overwhelming tasks seem effortless and exciting. She was available every time we had a question and guided us through all of the decisions we had to make! She made the entire process fun and helped make all of our ideas come to life! Our day of staff was amazingly helpful with anything we or our guests needed. Our guests can’t stop raving about how delicious the food and drink was. Overall, we are so very pleased with how everything came together and we wish we could do it all over again! Can’t wait to go back to The RLI for our anniversary dinner and hopefully attend another wedding there someday!We had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at The Red Lion Inn over Thanksgiving weekend 2023!

The perfect day, thanks to the perfect venue
The second we visited RLI when searching for venues, we knew Red Lion Inn was the perfect venue for us. Not only is it absolutely gorgeous and provided the aesthetic we were looking for, but the staff could not have been more amazing. During our visit, Soli was so helpful in answering all of our questions and touring us through the property. We could not have been luckier to have Jen has our wedding producer. Jen was with us every step of the way from helping us find vendors, to coordinating with them, and bringing our vision to life. She was truly amazing and the day would not have been the same without her. Andrew and Toufik were just as incredible. Toufik was there any time we needed him throughout the night, and sometimes was there even if we didn’t know we needed him (but always did). Andrew was so accommodating to all of our guests and really went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable. Without these amazing individuals and the rest of the staff, our day would not have been the most perfect day it ended up being. Truly, the day could not have gone better in any way. We owe them our forever thanks for creating the most incredible wedding to start our married lives that we could have asked for.The second we visited RLI when searching for venues, we knew Red Lion Inn was the perfect venue for us.

Incredible venue
I can’t say enough wonderful things about the staff at the Red Lion. Every single person, from consultation to morning after brunch, helped us in every way they could. I felt so supported, and knew they had the hard stuff taken care of! Jennifer Crook is the best, and she will have your back the entire process! The food is incredible, the venue is stunning, the rooms are amazing, and the staff are top notch. My husband and I are already planning a weekend trip to stay there again! They take care of all of the hard stuff so you can focus on enjoying your day!I can’t say enough wonderful things about the staff at the Red Lion.

01/13/24 Wedding
f you are lucky enough to have come across The Red Lion Inn for a venue, do not look any further. My husband and I got married here last a few weeks ago. I cannot fully express how special it was. The people working at the Inn from Andrew the innkeeper to the waitstaff are kind, accommodating, and so responsive. Krystel was our wedding coordinator and Toufik was our event manager, They both were INCREDIBLE. The day was so smooth and enjoyable because of them and their attention to all details. We had nothing to worry about because of them. I have had all of my guests tell me it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The food was amazing, the venue was beautiful and the service was unmatched. If money was of no concern, I would get married here yearly. I cannot thank The Red Lion Inn enough for making our wedding day the most special day of our lives. We love them so much!f you are lucky enough to have come across The Red Lion Inn for a venue, do not look any further. My husband and I got married here last a few weeks ago.

Great team, lots of support and a fun time!
The red lion inn team was super helpful with everything. They made sure everything ran smoothly and they were great about streamlining the day in an organized manner. We did not need to worry or think about anything they had everything handled. We loved having our reception there and having our after party at the bar area.

Absolute Dream
Our best decision was choosing the Red Lion Inn for our venue. Krystel was there for us throughout the entire process and made wedding planning so fun. She was there for every question and ran the wedding itself like an absolute pro. We loved that the tasting was an event for all couples (and their parents) with dates close to ours and we truly got to try every potential dish. Also we have received SO many compliments on our food and our guests were in awe with the barn. Toufik and Krystel made sure we got to enjoy every bit of our wedding, made sure we ate, and didn't miss a single detail. You get more than you pay for at this venue! We are still on cloud 9!!Our best decision was choosing the Red Lion Inn for our venue. Krystel was there for us throughout the entire process and made wedding planning so fun.

Best wedding venue!
The Red Lion Inn was the most incredible venue for our wedding in Jul 2023! We were looking for an upscale barn venue that was close to an airport since we had several guests from out of state and the Red Lion was just that. The first time we toured, my husband and I were sold. The barn has so much charm and the whole property is beautiful. Our wedding team and everyone we met at the Inn were friendly, organized, professional and ready to help with anything. Special shoutout to Sam, our amazing wedding coordinator, Toufik, our event coordinator, and Andrew, the innkeeper. Sam helped us from the day we signed our contract, organizing the little details and ensuring the ceremony and reception ran on smoothly and on schedule, putting us at ease. With the Inn, we were able to have access to the whole property on our wedding day. I got ready with my bridesmaids in the beautiful Hillside House, our ceremony and reception were in the barn and the after party was in the tavern. We were also able to rent the inn rooms on the night of the wedding. I cannot recommend the Red Lion Inn enough for your wedding!The Red Lion Inn was the most incredible venue for our wedding in Jul 2023!

Thrilled and Over the Moon Pleased!
Choosing The Red Lion Inn for our wedding was the best decision we made! All the staff that work there are incredibly kind and helpful. They make you feel special on your wedding day and you can feel completely secure in the fact that they have everything handled. Everyone who works there is a professional in the event business. Also, I have never been to a wedding where the food is as good as it is at The Red Lion Inn. I have received so many compliments on the food from guests. I just wish I remembered to eat more! It is also such a treat to have special guests stay at the inn with you on your wedding night. I loved how we were able to meet up the next morning to talk about all the fun memories. We chose both the tavern and the cave for our after-party and it made the night so much more fun because guests were able to quickly get from the barn and continue with the night. Other weddings I have been to with after parties usually require a shuttle to get guests closer to their hotels and guests lose their momentum to keep going. However, at The Red Lion Inn, the after party is right on the venue location! A special shoutout to Rachel, Toufik, and Andrew as they are the reason why we are so happy with how our wedding turned out. I cannot recommend enough booking this venue for your wedding!Choosing The Red Lion Inn for our wedding was the best decision we made! All the staff that work there are incredibly kind and helpful.

Absolutely Amazing experience!
We have zero negative comments about our experience at the Red Lion Inn. Our wedding was absolutely amazing and it went off perfectly! Our coordinator, Jennifer, was out of this world. She was incredibly responsive to all of our questions. Jennifer and her team also did a wonderful job taking the idea that I had in my head and making it real - from our welcome, escort and in memorial tables, to all of the place settings, we couldn't have been happier. Getting ready on-site was very helpful and the staff made the whole wedding party feel welcome and supported. Kudos to the entire staff at Red Lion Inn for making helping to make our day so perfect! The 10am check-out the next day was a little rough after our fun night but being able to stay onsite was very helpful too. I highly recommend using some of their suggested vendors as well, as they are familiar with the property already.We have zero negative comments about our experience at the Red Lion Inn.

10/10 Recommend - Simply The Best!
From the moment we walked into The Red Lion Inn, we knew it was the place for us and would host the wedding of our dreams. It did not disappoint! We booked our September 2022 wedding in August of 2020. Let’s start with the people… Being that we booked the venue two years prior (and during the time we booked it), we went through a few different coordinators. At the time, this was a bit nerve-wracking; however, we could not have been more grateful we ended up working with Krystel. Throughout the entire process, Krystel was extremely communicative, well-prepared, professional, attentive, and kind. She made our vision come to life the day of the wedding, and always made sure we were well taken care of throughout the day/night. I’d be remiss to not mention Toufik as well – the best! Running about all day/night ensuring that everyone was well taken care of. The professional and hardworking nature of the day-of-staff is a testament to Toufik is his amazing personality. Lastly, Andrew the Innkeeper is absolutely wonderful. Andrew was extremely helpful during the room block process; upon our arrival, we were greeted with his infectious smile. The Inn’s charm and character is a reflection of Andrew. Now the venue – it speaks for itself when you walk in the door. It is cozy, warming, welcoming, casual elegance… everything you could want for a rustic yet elegant vibe. Our ceremony and reception were held in the barn, cocktail hour in the Hillside House, after party in the Cave, and a post-wedding brunch in The Tavern. We had about 185 guests and everyone was extremely comfortable at all points of the evening and next morning. That leads me to the food – truly chef’s kiss. That’s the only way to really describe how phenomenal and delicious everything was from the cocktail hour to dinner to the brunch the next day. A huge thank you to The Red Lion Inn for making our special day just that – truly special. We cannot wait to come back and visit for our first anniversary and for many more special moments to come. You are all simply the best. 10/10 recommend! Love, Brooke & Dave G.From the moment we walked into The Red Lion Inn, we knew it was the place for us and would host the wedding of our dreams.

Exceptional wedding venue & staff!
The Red Lion Inn was the perfect location for our wedding. Not only does the property offer a beautiful setting for pictures, but the barn and loft also make for a unique and charming environment for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Additionally, our day was made even more perfect thanks to the amazing team and staff we were working with from beginning to end - especially our Event Producer, Rachel, and Event Manager, Toufik. Both went above and beyond to make the day extra special. Thank you to the team!The Red Lion Inn was the perfect location for our wedding.

Gorgeous wedding venue with amazing staff!
Absolutely LOVE everything about the Red Lion Inn! It is the gorgeous rustic barn style that I had always dreamed of for my wedding day. It was so convenient for guests to have ceremony, cocktail hour to reception in one area. From the outside it looks like just a cute Inn, but behind the inn is absolutely beautiful gardens and there are infinite amount of gorgeous photo opportunities.
We had an exceptional day and major shout out to Rachel, our producer, who is absolutely outstanding and made everything so incredibly easy and fun. Sam, Toufik and Andrew were also wonderful to work with throughout the planning and day off. The rest of the staff at the RLI were also incredible. We have nothing but good things to say about our whole experience. I highly recommend the RLI for a seamless and beautiful wedding day!Absolutely LOVE everything about the Red Lion Inn!

Loved Red Lion Inn!!
Loved, loved, loved! We had our reception at Red Lion in March, and it was a dream!
First off, the Red Lion Inn's barn is so beautiful. As soon as we walked in, I knew that's where I wanted the wedding. The beautiful chandeliers against the wood, the statement staircase, the exposed rock behind the stairs, the themed bar on the main floor *chef's kiss*. I loved it all, and it was great for our wedding photos. Plus, they provide a speakeasy bar in the basement for an afterparty! That was insane. Our friends had SO much (too much) fun there.
As for the catering/bar services - also great! At the food tasting event, they had some really great options that made it hard to pick. We went with the Halibut, Bistro Filet, & Mediterranean Eggplant, and the food was outstanding on the day of the wedding. Even my hard-to-please, foodie parents were impressed! We also got the open bar, and those bartenders did not hold back or water down the drinks. It was a full on party! Definitely happy we dished out the extra $$ for the bar.
Also, we LOVED our wedding coordinator, Jennifer Crook. She was amazing to work with - organized, detail-oriented, responsive, and hilarious. She helped us figure out all the small details, and she was patient with us when we were indecisive/confused. Plus, she was just a fun person to be around, which is a very nice bonus! From my point of view, the wedding day went so smooth, which likely means Jennifer was hard at work in the background.
Finally, the area of Cohasset is so cute! The Inn is located in the heart of the little town where there are a few cute shops/restaurants. And you're very close to the beach!
I will warn, it's a small, mostly residential town. So ubers aren't going to be readily available for your guests, and out of town guests might want to rent a car. We had the majority of our guests stay at the Nantasket Beach Resort in Hull & provided a bus for them to/from the wedding. I'd definitely recommend that, especially if you do an open bar!
So overall, would highly recommend the Red Lion Inn. The staff is great, the venue is stunning, the food is high quality, and the town is cute! My husband and I are looking forward to future anniversaries when we can go back and stay at the Inn again!Loved, loved, loved! We had our reception at Red Lion in March, and it was a dream!
