The Dennis Inn is the place for your Cape Cod Wedding

In a word, bravo! The Dennis Inn dis such an awesome job hosting our wedding, no matter the weather. Wholeheartedly recommend staying at the inn for your wedding week too. We were able to set up camp at our venue for the week and we felt as if things were being taken care of in real-time. Despite protests from Mother Nature, the TDI team created such a beautiful atmosphere for us inside. Additionally, their catering team made an awesome meal for our dinner. Looking to get married on the Cape and have that perfect outddor feel? Look no further than The Dennis Inn!

You can't go wrong with choosing The Dennis Inn!

The Dennis Inn was the ultimate location for our wedding this past July. Not only is the property stunning, the staff and food take the cake. We could not have asked for a better experience with The Dennis Inn, they were always so quick to respond and were patient with my five thousand questions and want of every little detail to be perfect. Janene at The Dennis Inn is a rock star along with the rest of the team, they all work to make sure you have every single thing you need. They understood all details that were important to our day and made sure all were executed flawlessly. Even our guests raved about the beauty of our unique venue and how amazing the food was. You cannot go wrong with having your wedding at The Dennis Inn, we are still looking back on the beauty of our day there!

Stunning wedding venue, great staff, amazing food!

The Dennis Inn was an absolutely stunning wedding venue and we are so happy we decided to have our special day here. Lots of other venues on the cape feel like "wedding factories" that just pump out weddings, but the character we found at the Dennis Inn was unmatched They really made us feel like the venue was ours for the weekend and were flexible with anything and everything we wanted to do. On top of that, every staff members is amazing! Janene was such a great coordinator, easy to work with, and made the whole process so much easier! Also, they were extremely flexible with the food - and it was all amazing. I could go on and on..we 100% recommend the Dennis Inn!!

A Remarkable Venue for a Remarkable Day!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My wife and I had our wedding reception at the Dennis Inn last year in July and it was absolutely remarkable! We spent the majority of the week at the inn with our maid of honor, her husband, and my sister and brother-in-law. The accommodations were perfect! The pool was the ultimate hang-out spot as our guests arrived on the cape.
The location is amazing as well! The majority of our guests were able to rent homes within walking distance, and all still had access to the local beaches nearby.

Working with the team at the Dennis Inn was flawless. Janene and Tom catered to our every need (even when we were being a little too high-maintenance lol).

On the day of our wedding, my wife and her bridesmaids used the inn to get ready. The photographer was in awe and was able to capture some beautiful moments pre-ceremony.
After our wedding, we arrived at the Inn via party bus and WOW it was like a movie! There were guests outside playing yard games, mingling, having a blast. The appetizers were PHENOMENAL! My favorite was the bacon-topped scallops. Seriously, incredible. (Also, the raw bar was a perfect touch for a Cape Cod wedding)

The flow of the event was amazing as well. We moved from outside into the side tent for appetizers, through the bar for cocktails, out to the main tent...there was no congestion and people loved it! After dinner we moved back inside for the cutting of the cake and dancing. The dance floor was hopping all night. The bar staff was attentive and friendly. Everything went off without a hitch.

I can't thank the Dennis Inn enough for the absolutely remarkable experience! Our guests all commented on how amazing the venue was. They loved every minute of it.
Thank you to everyone at the Dennis Inn for helping us celebrate our wedding in the most incredible way possible!

Exceptional service and very personable

I planned our wedding 2 years out and the venue was one of the first services I booked. Upon meeting Janene we completely hit it off. Janene was super accommodating and very helpful with making decisions and keeping us relaxed throughout the entire process. Sue and Tom were also instrumental towards making our big day go off without a hitch. It felt like additional family members were running our day and we were so appreciatative that they were right next to us throughout the entire process. The staff went above and beyond and were flexible with any changes that occurred. The suite upstairs took off another layer of pressure as all the vendors came to us and we were able to get ready on site. My husband and the groomsmen got ready at a bed and breakfast (The Isaiah Hall) next door and it was so convenient for the photographer and videographer. I couldn’t have been more impressed and our families continue to compliment and talk about how well coordinated and smoothly the day went. I would highly recommend to any bride who is looking for that intimate and stress free wedding day.

The Dennis Inn is the absolute perfect venue for any couple who wants to be able to create their own wedding vibe and personality while still not having to DIY everything. So much of the charm of the Inn is already there - it is the ultimate "backyard" wedding venue, and they take such great care of the property that it always looks great. Janene is wonderful and a total pro, making sure all the details are taken care of, and the space is beautiful on its own or can really take on any kind of theme you want to throw at it. Staying at the Inn for the weekend gives you the chance to relax and not worry about transport or multiple locations, plus you are the only show in town for their team. The bridal suite is beautifully renovated and gives great light for photos the day of the wedding, plus it's clean and comfortable - it's nicer than most Cape hotels! And depending on the time of year, different flowers are in bloom - for our August wedding we got married against the backdrop of a wall of white hydrangeas, which looked stunning and natural. For us The Dennis Inn was the best of all available options - more homey than a country club but less work than a complete DIY rental.

The Dennis Inn was the perfect choice as the location of our wedding reception. Janene and Fred were great at communicating and helped us plan the weekend perfectly!

The food was incredible - Fred is a master chef. Normally, wedding food is “OK” … but in Fred’s case it was restaurant quality food served to every person in attendance. Not only did Fred help us plan a delicious menu, but he took guests dietary restriction information and prepared meals suitable to their needs.

Additionally, as we planned, asked questions, and made changes - both Janene and Fred were helpful and flexible, and made every effort to help us in any ways possible.

In short, they made the weekend perfect, and we highly suggest using the Dennis Inn or Treat’s Catering for any event!

We hosted our daughter's wedding at the Dennis Inn over the weekend of September 24, 2016. It was perfect...largely in due to the incredible owners and staff of the Dennis Inn. Having the house to ourselves for the weekend made the wedding so intimate. Our daughter and her bridesmaids stayed in the suite upstairs. No other weddings waiting to set up or tear down, our ability to personalize the venue for the weekend. I felt as though we had borrowed a dear uncle's fabulous Cape house for our wedding weekend and found the best caterer on the Cape to keep us full of food and drink and then got to sit back and enjoy every minute of our daughter's happiness and the contentment of our guests. It is a special, unique spot and Fred, Janene, Sue, Tom and all the staff couldn't have been more accommodating. I look forward to figuring out another event I could hold there - it was really terrific!

Brad and Cathy they are the most professional people you are ever going to meet in this business. We first met with Brad to do our contract and then with Cathy for all our food and wine choices. We had gluten free and dairy free guest and she made sure to make food choices for them, I really appreciated the time she would take to go over everything with us. Whether it was once or fifteen times she always was so gracious. Also I want to mention that the staff at the Dennis Inn are all so welcoming. They were always right there when you needed something!! Thank you to Brad, Cathy and the entire staff for making our day so special!!

If I could add more stars I would! Everything from the very beginning of the wedding planning process to the day of, Cathy and Brad helped make everything flawless. Communication was very easy, responses came almost immediately, and they were always open and flexible to meet in person if it was necessary. They made the process a whole lot less daunting! Their staff was very friendly and accommodating, and created the perfect atmosphere for a wonderful and unforgettable event. All our guests have been complimenting on how beautiful the venue was, how much fun they had, and how the food was delicious! And that is exactly what we wanted for responses! I highly recommend The Dennis Inn for ANY event,
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
