Beauport Hotel Gloucester

Gosh, where to begin. Like other corona-brides, this year has been a total whirlwind. Lots of emotions, decisions, and changes. However, working with the Beauport has been the most amazing part of this year. They were behind any decision that I wanted to make—postponement, cancellation, or down-sizing to mini-wedding, which is the choice we eventually made. Although we had to majorly slash our guest list due to state regulations, the mini-wedding package offered by the Beauport really seemed to be the best of both worlds—my husband and I would be able to celebrate with our closest family and friends and not feel like we had to wait another year to get married. We thought to ourselves, if we feel like this mini-wedding isn’t enough, we could always have a bigger celebration later.

It was enough. MORE that enough. It was the perfect night. I felt like I lost nothing, gave up nothing, to have my perfect wedding in the middle of a pandemic. Nichole and her team are AMAZING. I can’t say enough good things. About six weeks before the wedding I met with Nichole in person to talk about details and honestly, with all the back-and-forth with corona, I hadn't put back on my planning hat and had very few of those last-minute details figured out. I was overwhelmed and had suppressed my excitement for so long. Nichole has this infectious energy and truly loves what she does—I left that meeting with so many new ideas and genuinely excited again for the big day.

I could go on, and on about the Beauport, but besides their care during this crazy year, its a gorgeous venue (even indoors, where we had our ceremony due to OCTOBER snow!), with amazing staff, and incredible food. Every guest remarked on the food and drink. It was wonderful to have everything in the same place, and they really keep
you organized and planning, even during the uncertainty of this crazy year.
