About this vendor

Host the happily ever after of your dreams at Blue Bear Inn, a hotel wedding venue located in Francestown, New Hampshire, near Crotched Mountain ski resorts and other outdoor recreational areas. The Inn's story begins with its previous owners, John and Rose Perry, who acquired the property in 1976 and maintained it for 49 years, breaking the record as the nation's longest-running innkeepers. After many makeovers by its new owner, Lorrie Deyelle Mailhot, Blue Bear Inn welcomes couples across the country hoping to get hitched in the heart of New England.

Facilities and Capacity

Blue Bear Inn is a breath of fresh air, surrounded by nothing but the snowcapped summits and running creeks of Piscataquog Valley. With various event spaces for up to 65 guests, you and your partner are in for a meaningful, memorable celebration. Host an open-air ceremony at the venue's inner event lawn, where forest-covered hills watch from above as you declare your "I dos." Adjacent to the yard is a rectangular turquoise pool that creates an ideal setting for cocktail parties and celebratory drinks. Once it's time for dinner and dancing, you and your dearest can retreat to the Inn's two restaurants, the Oak Hill Dining Room and the Winslow Tavern, for your wedding reception. Heated by a roaring, red-brick fireplace, these beautiful banquet halls allow guests to get comfy as they feast to their hearts' content. Homey ensuite accommodations are available for wedding-night stays and loved ones from out of town.

Services Offered

Exceptional hospitality is what Blue Bear Inn is all about, and Lorrie works hard to make every wedding a wonderful experience. From furniture rentals to in-house catering, she has a range of services for you and your sweetheart to enjoy.
