Wedding of my dreams!!!

Barker House was an absolute dream wedding location as someone who grew up in Scituate. The team was so fun and easy to work with, especially our coordinator Davis-Lynn and our banquet captain Paula. Davis-Lynn & Paula worked so well together and made me feel so comfortable and assured everything was under control on wedding day. I only worked with Davis-Lynn for about 2 weeks as our coordinator was confirmed at our final meeting but she was an absolute delight… she knows exactly what shes doing and is so focused on making sure every detail is handled as smoothly as possible. The packages for the wedding are extremely customizable and made for us to be able to personalize our day down to very minor details. By working with local vendors to create “all inclusive” packaging and pricing Wedgewood took hours of time and stress off our hands to confirm those details too. I’d go with them 10000x over again given the chance and truly cannot say enough good things about the Barker from the very start of planning right down to the genuine effort and care that went into our day by the day of team at the Barker.
