My fairy tail come true

Better than I could have ever dreamed of! Miriam is absolutely amazing and walked me through each process with recommendations and answered my questions any time of day. Steve is beyond words! He was our maître d’ and I was absolutely blown away. We felt like royalty on our wedding day. Anything we needed, our entire timeline, helping with my dress, legitimately anything that could have been a worry was taken care of by Steve or Sam our bridal attendant. We are forever grateful for the entire staff at the Bourne Mansion not only for making our night the best wedding I could have ever imagined but for being able to work with such incredible people that I will never forget in my lifetime. Book your wedding here!

Wedding of our Dreams

We recently had our wedding there this past July and cannot say enough amazing things about Bourne Mansion. We booked our venue about two years in advance and had the most incredible experience the entire time. Miriam is the most amazing point of contact and always answers every email and phone cll promptly and makes you feel important. She is also helpful with any bridal needs (especially for those girls like me without a planner!). Steve we had read comes off mean but he is the complete opposite. He is so on top of every single part of the wedding. We had a guest break a glass and Steve had it cleaned up in under a minute. He also made sure we always ate and had drinks - which seems unimportant until that day! The venue and food we are still getting raving reviews from friends and family and had over 230 people. Cocktail hour and main courses alike were fabulous - no complaints at all. At the end of the night Steve even gave us flowers to bring home,main courses, and cookies! My husband and I will never be able to thank them enough for providing us with the wedding of our dreams.I could go on and on for hours about each and every perfect part of the wedding, but as someone who never writes reviews I wanted to make sure every bride knows this venue really is as magical as it seems.
