Bridgeman Ballroom! Simply classic! Eileen was amazing heading up to the wedding with my million of questions. Dani is an angel if you get Dani for your day of you are in amazing hands! She made sure everything went prefect from making sure we had food and drinks all the way to cutting my dress for me! Best food and drinks ever!

The Knowlton Mansion is a breathtaking venue, and the staff of Conroy Catering are unmatched. Our event coordinator, Rebecca, was incredibly wonderful and efficient, and helped produce an absolute dream of a wedding. Our main attendant Dani was SUPERB. She always made sure we had food and drinks at hand, she made sure we wanted for nothing, and she was so upbeat the entire time. Every server and attendant was professional, kind, prompt, efficient - I cannot recommend them enough. If I had to do it all over again I wouldn’t change a single thing.

Our day went smoothly and everyone raved about how beautiful and delicious everything was. Very affordable compared to similar venues.

The team at Conroy Catering is amazing. They are all-stars. From day one at booking up until and through the day of, they were exceptional. Super friendly, and super organized. My day of coordinator, Chris, kept everything running smoothly and efficiently. My bridal attendant, Dee, was fantastic. She made sure I had food and drink at all times and was so positive and bubbly. The women I spoke with during booking always responded back in a timely matter and kept me informed of everything going on. Truly a fantastic set of people.

My husband and I recently celebrated our wedding at Knowlton Mansion in July 2021. The staff at Conroy helped make our wedding truly something to remember. While our wedding was small and intimate, our guests are still talking about it weeks later.

I full heartedly recommend Conroy catering at Knowlton Mansion, and wish to share the following from our recent experience.

Atmosphere:
—Open home: We really wanted our guests to be able to wander and not feel locked into a ballroom. Our guests enjoyed the ability to explore the historic rooms. It helped the day feel personal. Like we were celebrating in a home. The historic rooms also offer a great place to get ready.
—While the mansion is historic, the attached ballroom is modern with all the conveniences of a modern world—-AC (the historic rooms have AC too, great for summer wedding), generous bathrooms for guests (no lines or porte-potties here folks), kitchen on-site, etc.
—The ballroom has a lot of sunlights and windows to create an amazing naturalistic and bright space—perfect alternative for an outdoor loving couple forced by weather to stay indoors. We lucked out and had ours outdoors, but it meant a lot to know we had a Plan B that would be memorable too.

Covid Safety:
—Our wedding was originally planned May 2020. During the past year, there has been a lot of stress, but none of it came from our wedding planning with Conroy. They worked so hard to accommodate us and keep our guests safe. When we rescheduled from 2020 to 2021, they worked with us. They also offered a variety of Covid safety measures: staff wearing masks, reducing shared plates at food stations, outdoor/indoor space, improving air circulation through open doors, outdoor tents, etc.
They took it seriously, and we trusted them. With a guest list that included several elderly and vulnerable guests, including the groom himself, this trust was not something lightly given. But at every step, they demonstrated that safety was a priority. In the end, our 40 person event had no covid cases, thankfully.

Accommodations
—Our guests and bridal party had several health issues that they accommodated with great aplomb. Handicapped ramp and bathrooms. Space was easily accessible for guests with mobility issues.
—Groom has bad back, they allowed us to keep specialty ice pack in kitchen fridge and groom was able to lie down on chase upstairs when needed.
—Dietary needs—This is the BIGGEST thing that brought use to Conroy and that we will sing praises about until the day we die. Groom has celiacs and other dietary needs that required a gluten-free, fish free meal plan. It wasn’t just the groom. When all was done, each table had a gluten-free eater. Special care was taken to make the food default gluten free. While there was some gluten food about, it was clearly marked and all entries, appetizers, and even the cake was gluten free. My god the CAKE! Best gluten free cake ever. Cake was made by a pastry chef who works at a gluten free bakery. Amazing! For any couple with diet issues, know that Conroy will work with you.


In short, when we started planning we felt overwhelmed and concerned about having a safe space that could accommodate the physical and dietary needs of our guests. Not only did they help address those needs, they made planning the wedding so smooth. And on our special day, Rebecca (our day of manager) made everything go smoothly. She dealt with issues we didn’t even know we had. In the end our day passed like a dream. It all happened so quickly, but it was such an amazing experience, and Conroy is there to help make it happen.

Conroy catering facilitated our wedding and we could not have been more impressed. Our wedding day was perfect from start to finish. They handled every detail for us and they were there every step of the way from the contact signing to the end of our wedding. We got married during the pandemic and regulations were changing daily. Actually up to the the day before our wedding! It was stressful and uncertain for months but the staff at conroy were there to update us and give us news even it it wasn’t what we wanted to hear. They modified and restructured things up to the last day to make sure that we could have our perfect wedding. We couldn’t have been more grateful. I can only imagine what an amazing job they do during normal times. I would recommend them to anyone looking to plan an event. Big or small.

Absolultly excellent from the venue to the staff to the food to our wedding cake! Pleased with everything. They worked hard and made our wedding day perfect! No complaints! Our ceremony and reception were at the Knowlton mansion.

My husband and I fell in love with Knowlton Mansion from our first visit and our wedding there was absolutely perfect. Everyone we dealt with was responsive and fantastic. We worked with Lori through the planning process and she made it such an easy and nice experience. Eileen, our day of coordinator, and Dee, our wedding day attendant were incredible as well. Eileen made sure everything was set up exactly how we had pictured it and Dee was incredibly attentive during the wedding, making sure we had anything we could want.

Our wedding was gorgeous and exactly what we pictured, all of the guests commented on how unique the venue was and how delicious all of the food was. That, combined with the great staff who worked with us to make our wedding perfect truly made this a perfect day. I'd recommend Knowlton Mansion to anyone looking for a magical, unique venue for their wedding.

My husband and I had looked at dozens of venues before stumbling upon Knowlton Mansion through a message board discussing local venues, and it was the best thing that could have happened to us. After our initial visit, we knew immediately that this was the perfect venue.
Everyone we encountered through Knowlton and Conroy Catering were extremely professional, helpful, and accommodating. Lori was our rep throughout the booking process up until the day of. She was readily available to answer any questions and was extremely knowledgeable of not only Knowlton weddings, but any wedding process.
We chose a December wedding, which meant that the mansion was decorated with wreaths, garlands, trees, and other holiday decor. It really added to the space and made it that much more special. The history of the venue and all of the details throughout the mansion really added an amazing character that you really can't get in a typical wedding hall-type venue.
From the catering aspect, we chose the stations option, which was, in my opinion, the best option. Our guests loved having so many options to choose from for their meals and made the night go so much faster in terms of the flow of events. Everyone absolutely loved the food options and were amazed at the attentiveness of the entire staff. We also chose a cupcake tier instead of the normal wedding cake, and it was a huge hit.
On the day of the wedding, we had two staff members assigned to us, a maitre de and a coordinator. Our maitre de was Dee, and she did such a great job making sure that we had everything we needed throughout the day. Our coordinator was Jeannie. She was so amazing and accommodating for anything we needed throughout the night. She made sure that everything was taken care of exactly how we planned it. She and Dee were amazing coordinating with our vendors and made our evening absolutely perfect!
My husband and I would 100% recommend recommend Knowlton Mansion and Conroy Catering for any event!

I absolutely love this venue. They were so flexible and accommodating. The food was great and the ambience perfrct. The staff was so helpful and kind. They were easygoing with everything I wanted to add
