Kendra M. Married on 08/28/2021Above and Beyond, Wedding day of our dreams
Do you want a wedding where you have to worry about nothing? Do you want to have every single detail thought out of carefully? Do want expertise and high class service? Then pick the Hawthorne. Karen, Aliana and Christine and staff made our special day the best day of our lives. Our guests where flabbergasted by the level of service, incredible food and careful detail that was put into the event. The historical ambiance paired with the exceptional service made the whole day an affair to remember. My Husband and I will go back every year to remember our amazing experience. Whether you are staying there for the night, hosting an event or just going there for dinner, you will not be disappointed. Highly recommend and I am a picky person.

Catherine S. Married on 08/08/2021Legendary Service, beautiful location!
We met Karen at a wedding Expo in Jan.2020 and we knew that the Hawthorne Hotel have the character, the beauty, the location setting that fit our dream wedding! What we found out over the following two years, as we had to postpone our wedding two times during the pandemic, was that their attention to detail was impeccable. Their desire to take the best care of us and our guests was a priority. The quality and presentation of their food was incredible! The wedding package was not only affordable but it came with so many top quality referrals. Through them we found our florist, our amazing transportation, and our wedding cake that was pure perfection! Every last detail they covered to following every request we had, to giving suggestions to save money and how to handle the changing restrictions during the pandemic. They were flexible, professional, courteous and amazing during the whole process! We chose to hold our rehearsal dinner and our reception here and a lot of our guests stayed overnight here. The place with its history, beauty, and the way they run every detail so smoothly I definitely recommend putting this place at the top of your list! Thank you to all of the staff and Chef at the Hawthorne Hotel! They gave us a royal feeling at the same time making us feel right at home! Cathy -

Gorgeous historic venue and a gem of the North Shore. We are so honored to be partners with Hawthorne Hotel and always enjoy performing there. Laura, Patrick and the rest of the sales and catering staff make their clients and vendors feel like family. Their hospitality & professionalism are 2nd to none. It's a no brainer telling our brides and grooms that they are in the best of hands. Any time a new inquiry comes our way and we see they've booked this venue, we enthusiastically congratulate the couple. Every event we've ever performed at the Hawthorne has always been seamless and stress free, enabling us to focus on the entertainment, which in the end delivers the client an amazing experience. It takes team work and we are thrilled to be part of your team. Thank you!!!!
Salem is a VERY popular city when it comes to North Shore weddings. We LOVE the Hawthorne Hotel! The elegance and class of the ballroom is something you just have to see in person to fully appreciate. It's one of the most historic wedding venues in the area and couples absolutely love the venue AND the staff. The sales and catering staff is outstanding when it comes to helping you plan for a perfect wedding day. Once the big day arrives, their event managers will work seamlessly with you, and all of the outside vendors like us. They are so awesome and detail oriented that couples actually get to ENJOY their wedding days. Check them out. You will love them...
