Stunning Western MA Venue!

We've worked with Gloria and Emma at Gloriosa & Co. on several weddings for our mutual clients and we've loved every minute!

As live wedding entertainers, we've performed at hundreds of venues, and Gloriosa is one of our absolute favorites. The barn and gardens are absolutely beautiful, the food is INCREDIBLE, and the staff are kind, courteous, and helpful.

They're a joy to work with and we can't recommend this venue enough for your wedding!

Incredibly lovely wedding venue beyond our expectations

I cannot speak highly enough about our experience hosting our wedding at The Curtis House by Gloriosa & Co. My husband and I got married a couple of weeks ago (September 2024) and our wedding was truly one the happiest, best days of our lives thanks to the love and personalization that Gloria and Emma put into planning and executing our day. We were drawn to so many things about the venue, including the charming setting of Ashfield, the rustic but modernized aesthetic of the barn, the beautiful gardens and greenhouse, and the house being an available space to get ready. We were also drawn to the convenience and uniqueness of being able to provide our floral arrangements from Gloria’s greenhouse and gardens on-site, and having all of the food and beverages taken care of through the venue’s catering and bar team.

But what made us decide to book this venue for our special day was the attention that Gloria and Emma give each couple. This venue is not your typical wedding factory that puts on weddings multiple times a week, every week of the year; Gloria and Emma host between 12-15 weddings per year and consequently each couple they work with gets full access to the venue the weekend of their wedding and so much guidance during the planning process. We were able to cultivate a vegetarian menu consisting of so many of our favorite foods plus a number of signature dishes of the venue, such as a butternut squash galette that was a crowd favorite. Sustainability is also incredibly important to us as a couple, and Gloria and Emma are committed to sourcing only local, seasonal ingredients for the food and florals and minimizing waste, which meant so much to us. In terms of decor and furnishings, the venue has so much available for couples to use, such as tables, chairs, ceremony benches, several wedding arches to choose from, displays for food or guest favors, tableware, candles, string lights, and more. We did not have to rent or coordinate anything other than the few DIY projects we made, which Gloria and Emma effortlessly integrated into the set up for us. Being able to take care of practically everything through Gloria and Emma made planning so much simpler.

On the wedding day, Gloria, Emma, and their team handled the venue set up in a few hours, which happened like a choreographed dance that required practically no work from us or our wedding parties other than providing input and approval along the way. Everything went extremely smoothly and we were able to be fully present. After our ceremony, my husband and I returned to the house, where Gloria had set up champagne and a spread of our hors d'oeuvres for us to enjoy over a few minutes of privacy, which is something she had recommended we do as we took in the moment together. Our guests have had nothing but positive things to say about our wedding and it was clear the day of how much fun everyone had. We have received so many compliments about how beautiful and authentic the venue was, how exquisite Gloria’s floral arrangements were, how delicious all of the food was (even the heavy meat-eaters loved the vegetarian menu), and how this will be a wedding they will always remember. Gloria made us feel like part of her family and we were so happy to be able to support her business. We truly could not have asked for a more memorable, personalized, loving, and beautiful wedding, and hope that many other couples have the pleasure of getting married at this special place.

Transcendent

It's impossible to fully describe how incredible Gloriosa & Co. is in words. The venue is absolutely stunning, and Gloria is a fantastic host. We stayed the weekend (Fri-Sun), and Gloria made sure that we were taken care of every moment. She even whisked us away for a private moment after our ceremony and brought us champagne and snacks. The house and the grounds are so charming and filled with unique details - whether it's a flower blooming in the garden or in the nursery, or an antique piece of artwork in the old house, we were so grateful to find such a special setting for celebrating our wedding.

The food at our reception dinner and day-after brunch simply transcended what we thought possible for wedding food. Each dish was incredibly well-made, well-plated, and delicious. Emma and her catering team are extremely talented and ensured that every detail was perfectly executed. We are food snobs with high standards, and every course exceeded our expectations. People will not stop talking about how good the food was (including our pies for dessert!).

Everything was perfect. My wife teared up as she hugged Gloria good-bye on our last day! We did not want to say good-bye to this magical place. If you are looking for a beautiful venue that will give you the barn wedding of your dreams, know that you will be in fantastic hands at Gloriosa & Co.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

As a wedding photographer I'm always provided a hot meal. Most couples don't want me to take photos of others eating so this is the best time for me to take a break. Most wedding food is the same- chicken, prime-rib or vegetarian. How exciting! Nothing ever surprises me and most of the food is too salty. Gloriosa & Co. without a doubt, provided the BEST meal I've had at a wedding since starting my business. Not only was the food delicious but the staff was very friendly and welcoming. When I walked through the kitchen to get to the bride's suit they offered me a little bite to eat- fresh mozzarella, basil, vinaigrette and local heirloom tomatoes. I dreamt of those tomatoes for weeks. I love their emphasis on local and you will too. Not only are they masters in the kitchen but Gloria also offers beautiful floral arrangements from her garden. At the last wedding I photographed the bride put together the table arrangements with her mother and aunt from buckets of gorgeous flowers that Gloria provided. I thought this was an incredibly beautiful moment and relaxing activity for the bride before the wedding. She also arranged the bride's bouquet, fresh and gorgeous wild flowers. I highly recommend Gloriosa & Co! You will not be disappointed.
