The Jones River Trading Reviews

I loved this venue so much, it was the first and only venue I looked at after getting engaged! I loved having the option for both an indoor and outdoor ceremony, especially when it rained on my September wedding day! The food was amazing! Michele was the best coordinator I could have ever asked for especially coordinating my crazy bridal party. Michele kept checking in to make sure we were taken care of and brought my vision to life better than I could have imagined! The staff set everything up before my arrival and packed everything up before the end up of the night for me making sure I was truly able to enjoy my whole day/night!

Thank you Michelle (wedding coordinator) for making our special day nothing less than spectacular! Jones River Trading Post's attention to detail, from the catering (buffet), meal options were wonderful. My guests loves the presentation, your impeccable service from the appetizer offerings throughout the cocktail and photo shoot time to keeping the food warm until all ate. Michelle accepted all my texts and calls as I planned my wedding from San Diego! To top it off we had beautiful weather on 9/22/23! Highly recommend this venue- a nautical themed setting which fit right in for the Navy bride, groom and guests! what a hit

We got married here on 7/29/23 and our day was perfect! Michele our day of coordinator was a godsend and gave us piece of mind and had everything run smoothly.There was a storm supposed to happen during the ceremony but I was really wanting it to be outside so they waited until 30 minutes before to set up outside to make sure we wouldn’t get rained out. Also even with severe weather and a tornado happening later in the night everything ran smoothly and didn’t affect anything. We did the station party for dinner, and the chocolate fountain for dessert, and it was a big hit for our guests. We got compliments through out the night on how good the food was and how beautiful the venue was with the lighting and decorations. The staff was extremely helpful and had great dance moves as well. One of the servers was also a seamstress and helped me with my bustle multiple times. As I was planning the wedding I had lots of questions and the staff was very helpful and answered all of my questions no matter how small and made great suggestions. For how expensive weddings are especially in New England I feel like we were able to stay in our budget. The venue doesn’t need much decoration with how beautiful and eclectic it is. Our day was perfect and I would recommend it to anyone planning an event or wedding.

The Best trio around to make your wedding seamless! We had Chris most of the time up to the day of our wedding (stupid covid!) But Michele Stepped in for the weekend and made the rehearsal/ wedding weekend better than I could ever imagined! She is so talented! Thank you again to all and extra thank you to Michele for making our wedding so memorable!

My wife Ally and I got married at Jones River in July of this year. Getting married here was a truly great decision. The staff at Jones river was extremely friendly, accommodating, and helpful with every question and concern we had. In the planning stages, Chris walked us through details and made us feel comfortable with understanding our selections. Michelle's coordination and attention to detail was outstanding. Leading up to the day and during the wedding, Michelle made sure that we had everything we needed and were where we supposed to be at every step of the way. We highly recommend this venue as the staff is a true reflection of the beautiful atmosphere the Trading Post provides.

Choosing Jones River was seriously the best decision my husband and I made when planning our wedding day. The venue is spacious yet charming and cozy, has the most gorgeous dark wood floors, tall ceilings and natural sunlight that together make all pictures come out amazing. And Plymouth Bay Catering food options were perfect -- so many great options to choose from and completely delicious. My guests are still raving about the venue and food. But the best part of the Jones River experience is 100% the wedding coordination team -- Mark, Michele, and Chris. I worked most closely with Michele and was seriously impressed with her down-to-earth, honest and incredibly smart/wise wedding expertise. She was so accessible, helped me to troubleshoot and get everything in order from seating to decorations to food and drink well ahead of my big day. With Michele in my corner I never felt overwhelmed and that's saying something coming from a bride!! Thanks to Michele and the Jones River team for everything, I would work with you guys 1,000 times over!

This is the most amazing venue! We were really looking for something budget friendly as we did not want to go into debt over our wedding. We also wanted a venue that had a lot of character to it. This was the perfect place. All night people were complementing our venue and saying how unique it was! Chris and Michele along with Mark are fabulous staff to work with. They take away every single worry that you could possibly think of. I was definitely a very annoying bride constantly texting them questions but they never made me feel ridiculous and always gave me clear answers! Get married here! You will not regret it.

The Jones River Trading Post was an excellent choice. The staff was unbelievable and so efficient, we were very pleased. I would recommend this place to anyone. They stayed focused and took care of everything. They were very pleasant the whole time, and very accommodating. We can't say enough good things, so grateful!!!!

When my husband and I first went to look at the Jones River Trading Post, we absolutely fell in love with the rustic, beautiful feel of the venue; It was exactly what we were looking for and affordable. Michelle, Chris, and Mark were extremely helpful and answered any questions we had along the way, and even gave us ideas we hadn’t thought of. We had to push our wedding date to the following year due to the pandemic, and they were understanding and super easy to work with. Michelle went above and beyond making us feel happy and comfortable at all times. Every bride has nerves on their wedding day, but she relieved any bit of stress and anxiety for me. The venue itself was beautiful, as they did a great job setting up, and the food was amazing as well! I cannot say enough about how much we love this place, and how lucky we are to have chosen the Jones River Trading Post as our venue. Our wedding day was perfect!

Please see my Plymouth Bay Catering review. The venue and caterer go hand in hand.

Words cannot explain how truly grateful I am. We got married 10-6-19 and it was like Michele had been by my side planning the whole thing. The room was set up exactly as I imagined, she was so pleasant and easy to work with. She kept the whole day running smooth. Marc and Chris were super easy to communicate with leading up to our day too. I can’t say enough, if you’re considering using this venue you will not be disappointed. ❤️

We had a great experience working with Jones River Trading! Really informative meetings months prior. We loved our day of coordinator, Christopher! He set up the room exactly matching my vision! He answered all of my week of questions and completely set us at ease at the rehearsal. He helped everything run smoothly and followed our timeline for the day. We got so many compliments on the decor, but most of it was just the eclectic decor that comes with this beautiful venue. The food was amazing too!

From the beginning we knew this was going to be our venue. The beautiful backdrop with a flowing river and willow tree and nature surrounding us as we pledged our love to each other. Our day of coordinator, Michelle, was absolutely amazing! She took all my worries away and ensured me that she had everything under control. You couldn’t ask for a better listener, problem solver, and down right - great person! I can’t say enough of how beautiful the venue looked... it was MAGICAL!!! We decided on appetizers and stations for our meal. The food was phenomenal! Guests were so impressed and still talking about it! I highly recommend this venue!!! I will post some pictures courtesy from my amazing photographer @ Brittany O’Brien @obrienphotoandvideo

I cannot speak higher of Michelle and everyone at Jones River. Our wedding was held in the hottest day of the year, July 20th. Last minute we moved inside and she was so amazing to make sure the venue didn't lose any of the charm we loved about it so much. Everything was perfect - the lighting, the food, the employees.... everything. It is easy to see why so many people choose this venue for their wedding having chose it myself. Michelle was super easy and responsive to work with. If you are looking for a venue that won't break the bank, and will look amazing in photography - look no further.

The venue and food were incredible. It rained an hour before our ceremony and Chris didn’t even think about letting me stress out about it. The storm passed, everything was moved outside, and the day went on as planned without a hitch. The venue was gorgeous and exactly what we were looking for. The absolute perfect hidden gem venue.

We had our wedding here last weekend and everything turned out perfect! Michele was awesome to work with. Right when I met her my stress level went down and I knew she would have it under control. She answered all my questions leading up to the day of and made us feel very comfortable about our decision to choose this venue. The waitstaff were so friendly and helpful. My guests have raved about the food all week and how beautiful the venue is. I wish we could do it all again. Thank you for making our special day so amazing!

When my wife and I first walked into the Jones River Trading Post while looking at wedding venues we immediately loved its unique character and cozy atmosphere. We couldn’t be happier in choosing this space for our ceremony and reception. The staff was very helpful throughout the entire process leading up to our wedding day and had great recommendations for outside vendors. The number of food choices and customizable catering packages was awesome. We felt we could do things exactly how we wanted and JRT would be able to deliver, and they definitely did! They will go above and beyond to make sure you’ll be happy with your event. Michele was our coordinator did such a great job making sure everything went smoothly and everyone was taken care of. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Jones River Trading was the BEST venue we could have imagined. First, it is a really unique space with high ceilings, lots of natural light, and antique touches. Also, the owner, Mark, and coordinator, Mary, are extremely flexible, honest, affordable, and try to help you make cost effective choices. We ended up doing their package and it saved us so much time, money, and stress. They are also super easy to work with and Mary was extremely helpful and kind throughout the whole process - she really works with you. They let us borrow props and helped us rent benches for the ceremony. The day of our wedding, Mary went above and beyond making sure everything ran smoothly and timing us throughout the day. Our guests raved about how incredible the space and food was (the food is seriously delicious). I can’t say enough good things about them. Thanks so much for giving us an amazing day!

My daughter was married at the Jones River Trading Post this past Aug. 19.
It was a perfect day and our guests all raved about the friendly wait staff and the delicious food and the beautiful venue as well!! My husband and I agree with them all!!
From our very first meeting with Mark we were impressed with the professional and courteous manner with which we were treated as well as all of the helpful hints and suggestions he offered us. Our wedding coordinator Mary was extremely helpful in helping my daughter plan this wedding from a distance and walked us through every step of the day on the actual day of the wedding, answering our questions and calming our nerves. The staff put out all of our decorations perfectly which saved us so much time that very exciting but nerve-wracking morning.

The vendors with the champagne package were wonderful as well and made the job of coordinating our long distance plans between my daughter and her fiance who were in Wisconsin with all of the possibilities and nuances of planning a wedding here in Massachusetts!
Everything was just as we all imagined it...and even better than we imagined it could be!
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Jones River Trading Post to our friends and family for any special occasion . It was PERFECT.

Five stars is not enough to rate the quality business that is the Jones River Trading Post. Our wedding day was nothing short of perfect thanks to all of the hard working staff that pulled every last detail together. Mary was absolutely phenomenal as our coordinator and even when it was raining out, went along with our wish to have or ceremony outside! Lucky for us, the rain stopped and the sun broke through just in time for the ceremony and some quick pictures before pouring down again! Everyone we worked with was fantastic and incredibly helpful with all of our questions. Our guests have been raving about our wedding saying it was the best they have ever been to! Plymouth Bay Catering did incredible with the food and all of the vendors through the champagne package were top notch. We wish we could do it all again and again! Thank you for a perfect day Jones River!

My wife and I had our wedding here on 5/12/2018. The Jones River staff is amazing. They made our day a stress free and fun! I would like to say thanks to all of our servers, Rachel, Emma, Cheryl, Molly, and Jessica. Also, thank you to Chris and Stephanie for serving the great drinks at the bar. A very special thank you to our coordintor Michelle. Michelle is meticulous with her attention to detail and her natural ability to be so accommodating. She is amazing! I need to also thank Kerri and Mark for the beautiful and kind gesture that made our day. If you want a venue where the staff is professional, kind, and truly cares, look no further. At the end of the night, all of the folks at Jones River became like our family.

This was such a perfect venue for a perfect day. The decor is so unique and beautiful. The staff is incredible. The details are all just so perfect. Our guests all commented on what a fun place this was to have a wedding. We had such a great experience here and our night was amazing. Thank you!! :)

I CANNOT STRESS HOW INCREDIBLE OUR WEDDING AT JONES RIVER TRADING WAS. Dealing with Jones River Trading and Plymouth Bay Catering was as simple and easy as can be. These folks know what they're doing. If you called with any question, they would answer it. My husband and I dealt with Mark, the catering manager, until the week of our wedding when we spoke with Mary, our wedding coordinator. She was a saint and the utmost professional. She took any stress that we had away and just told us to breathe, enjoy the moment, and keep it simple. Unlike other weddings we had been a part of, everything on the day of felt organized, coordinated, and easy. The staff at Plymouth Bay Catering are a MACHINE. They are so professional and I can't say enough wonderful things. The venue is GORGEOUS, accommodating, and most of all, affordable. We received hundreds of compliments on the venue and especially the food, with many saying it 'was far too good to be wedding food'. It was true! Everything, from top to bottom, was phenomenal. I highly recommend working with these folks and enjoying any event at Jones River Trading.

We had our wedding at Jones River Trading on October 28th. A friend told me about it when I got engaged, and we went to check it out. It was the first and only venue we looked at. We knew immediately that it was the right place. We lucked out with perfect weather and were able to have the ceremony out back. It's really a beautiful spot. Mark, Mary and Michelle were great to work with. Mark helped us with our menu, and helped save us money wherever he could. We opted for the Smokehouse Buffet, and it was delicious! We got tons of compliments on the food, which was done by their exclusive caterer, Plymouth Bay Catering Company. Mary and Michelle were the wedding coordinators, and they were awesome! They helped with the rehearsal, the ceremony and the reception. I had an extremely large wedding party and they did a great job getting everyone organized and in the right spot. We had a number of things to bring home with us after the wedding, but were staying in a hotel didn't have a car to transport everything. Michelle was kind enough to meet us back at Jones River the following day (her day off) so that we could pack the stuff up. We had a perfect day.

We booked Jones River back in February and instantly fell in love.
We cannot say enough about how wonderful Jones River Trading Post is. We got married there 9 days ago and had the absolute best time ever! We wish we could start all over and relive it. All the staff was incredibly helpful, and was so amazing with time management. In an instance, they were able to change the ceremony from outside to inside because of sudden rainfall. The ceremony was just as beautiful inside as out. The food, incredible! We had the smokehouse buffet and people still can’t stop talking about it.
The decor was amazing. The Hall was so spacious, and the bar unbelievably unique.
My nieces who were in our wedding, want us to get married again so they can go back. When you’re impressing children, you know they’re doing something right.
The venue fit my husband and I’s vintage love and nautical theme as well, but also had a rustic feel. Everyone kept saying how “us” it was.
We have to ESPECIALLY thank Michelle, our coordinator. My husband and I, along with the rest of my family, Loved her! She was amazing during phone calls, our rehearsal and the day of. We felt a special bond with her and we’ll always remember her. She put us all at ease and was literally the sweetest person we’ve met. She understood our vision and reservations (we’re a little shy) and she was sure to listen and have our ceremony and reception go smoothly. Thank you so much Michelle! We were honored to have you be a part Of our day.
So in conclusion, get married at Jones River Trading Post. You will not regret it!
