About

On WeddingWire since 2016

Located on a 236-acre private estate, the historic Dell-Lea Weddings & Events is a premier wedding venue in Chichester, New Hampshire. The 230-year-old renovated barn is among the largest in the area, providing an unrivaled rustic elegance for that special day. Centrally located between Manchester, Concord, and Portsmouth, the property serves as a secluded space while also remaining accessible.

Facilities and Capacity

Dell-Lea Weddings & Events has indoor and outdoor ceremony and reception spaces available. Couples are invited to exchange vows outdoors under the magnificent gazebo, with glorious front-facing views of the mountains. The renovated barn acts as an indoor reception space that is climate-controlled and accommodates up to 180 guests. The barn is fitted with exposed beams, a custom timber-made bar, a private dressing room, a large dance floor, and a veranda overlooking the property.

Dell-Lea Weddings & Events offers full wedding planning services to couples. The team takes care of all the planning needs from vendor bookings to setting up decorations on the day. The group helps with budgets, event design, reservations, and transportations, providing a low-stress experience to its clients. For ceremonies, the venue includes white chair arrangement, one-hour rehearsal, and one-hour ceremonial time in its packages.

Cuisine

Dell-Lea Wedding & Events provides catering and bar services to meet every couple's wedding needs. The chefs prepare all meals on-site and only use the highest quality ingredients available. The team offers an array of cuisine options, including hors d’oeuvres, plated and buffet meals, late-night snacks, and desserts. Some menu items include espresso-crusted filet mignon, marinated steak tips, orange-glazed pork tenderloin, seasonal baked stuffed chicken, and more.

Perfect Wedding

Not only is Dell-Lea an absolutely breathtakingly beautiful venue with outstanding, high-quality food, but the attention to detail given by Toutou Marsden and Laurie Russell is unparalleled. From the moment we looked at the venue to the final send-off, Toutou and Laurie didn't miss a beat. We didn't hire a separate wedding planner, but we didn't need to; we primarily used the vendors recommended by Dell-Lea (Boutique Leslie Bridal for the dress; Get Down Tonight Entertainment with DJ Jillian Mann for the music, Kiss the Bride with Alison Sica for photography, and Jacques Pastries for the cake) and everyone was so helpful and easy to work with! We added McElroy Films LLC as our videographer, and they were OUTSTANDING; Lyndsey Loring Design LLC as our florist, who created gorgeous AND AFFORDABLE bouquets, and Pixel Pod for a little bit of photo booth fun!
Laurie and Toutou answered every question that we had along the way, met with us before the wedding to cover details, and expertly guided everyone through the ceremony both during the rehearsal and during the wedding. On the day of the wedding, we had nothing to do but enjoy the event, and I can't thank Toutou and Laurie at Dell-Lea more for giving our daughter the wedding of her dreams!

We love Dell-Lea!

Dell-Lea was the first venue we visited. After visiting a few other venues we realized how lucky we were to have found Dell-Lea and quickly booked it! Toutou is perfect at what she does - meeting with her felt like a family member helping us prepare for our big day. She and the staff clearly love what they do, and it shows. They offered us helpful vendor recommendations in the area, and Toutou’s extensive experience helped the entire day run smoothly. They include many small touches throughout the day that keep the schedule running smoothly. Dell-Lea’s food and drink menu is extraordinary and they were very accommodating of a number of food allergies and preferences. We love how they work with local bakeries and other vendors for specific desserts, including locally made vegan ice cream. We received so many compliments on the food and drinks - some of the highlights were the cashew cheese ravioli and the late night ballpark pretzels. It’s amazing that they have decorations to rent - this saved us a lot of time and money! The location is gorgeous and there are so many great picture options throughout the property.

A stressless day

We had our wedding at Dell-Lea in June. Toutou (the owner) was amazing to work with. She had everything organized to the smallest detail to make our lives easier. All of our questions leading to the date were answered promptly. The food, cooked in-house was phenomenal. Our outside vendors were well coordinated with the venue. The biggest thing we talk about from that night was just how easy our day was made because of the professionalism that Dell-Lea offered us.
