We absolutely love working at Gore Place! Not only is it a spectacular oasis near the city, but it is impeccably managed. The staff there really care about their clients and vendors, which makes our job seamless. Clients are always so happy to have booked there, and we are always happy when we have the honor of staffing their events!

Gore place is a lovely venue for weddings and special events. Between their three season tent, magnificent grounds and newly renovated carriage this venue boasts of unique charm and elegance. Marjorie is always a joy to work with she is friendly, helpful, and accommodating.

Gore Place has readily become a desirable wedding destination in the Greater Boston area. With the inclusion of the new tent for up to 200 guests and the recent renovations to the Carriage House for smaller receptions; Gore Place is a malleable and well managed facility. As a caterer who works with Gore Place frequently for weddings, we always look forward to working with their very capable staff. Marjorie, the Function Manager, is especially helpful given her wealth of knowledge in regards to the space and her vast experience in event planning. Every wedding we have catered at this venue has gone off without a hitch.
