Our wedding was wonderful

We booked our wedding with Renaissance in Haverhill, Massachusetts and it was the best thing we ever did for our wedding! Initially, we met with Director of Sales Samantha Shea who was very helpful and competent with leading us through the process. We moved onto the event coordinator who left unexpectedly during our time of planning. She was replaced by Jessica Kulevich who is the Catering and Events Coordinator. She was always responsive every time we called or emailed her. What we remember most about her besides her professionalism was her thoughtfulness during our arrival at Renaissance after our church services and having appetizers waiting for us along with drinks in the comfort of one their rooms. Last but not least the staff was very attentive to our needs during the wedding reception. Both Samantha, Jessica and staff were the ultimate professionals and we highly recommend Renaissance for your wedding venue. The wedding was all we dreamed of because it came off flawlessly!

Elegant and seamless!

We had our wedding on Sep 10, 2022 and it was absolutely perfect and everything we dreamed it would be! Having the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception on site kept everything really simple and the venue is absolutely beautiful and elegant. Jessica was so dedicated and went above and beyond in every way to make our day go smoothly. Between bustling my dress, wrangling a huge bridal party and golfers, and figuring out how to get the most use out of our decorations, we couldn't have asked for a better person to trust with our wedding. Her entire staff, especially Marshall, were absolutely lovely and the wait staff even danced with us at the end of the night !! By the time we arrived the morning of the wedding at 10am, our decorations were already almost completely set up. Literally my only complaint is that the prices raised slightly between when we booked in late 2020 and our wedding, but they were able to make up for that so it was fine. We definitely recommend viewing this venue and booking it, we felt so taken care of and happy !

PERFECT location for our Wedding Weekend!

We had our Wedding, After Party and Post Wedding Brunch at Renaissance and it was everything we wanted plus more! We were lucky enough to have the venue to ourselves all weekend so we could rehearse, stay over the night before and night of and really felt like it was OUR wedding weekend! Our wedding guests was blown away at the beauty of ballroom and the entire grounds. Renaissance was so accommodating to have our after party and day after brunch on site and the entire staff went above and beyond all weekend. Renaissance was truly able to provide the exact vibe we wanted all weekend and no matter what request I made the answer was almost always yes and if it wasn't, they were able to find a solution. Lana, Samantha, Rachel, Taylor, the waitstaff, bartenders and all the staff are PHENOMENAL!! Thank you Renaissance for our best day and weekend ever!
