fantastic experience and wedding reception here

The venue is elegant and historic and (due to its recent opening) still fairly unknown to local guests, which made it a wonderful destination. Amy was so helpful getting tables and linens ordered and set up and answering all of our questions along the way. Couldn't have been more pleased with how our event went! Highly recommend Moonlight Lighting lights on the balcony and gelato there as well on a summer evening. Magical.

Peace of Mind

The Monson Center is absolutely gorgeous and was mine and my fiancé’s first choice based on the location and the overall esthetic. We were pleasantly surprised by how much assistance we received from
Amy Harcourt and her staff throughout the entire process of wedding planning. Amy is extremely responsive, professional and pleasant and made us feel that our very important (and typically very stressful) wedding reception would be completely taken take of. I did like the fact that we could choose our own vendors and the Monson Center has many great options that are their preferred (or just typically used) vendors that could be selected which made things easier. We did end up choosing a caterer that was not on their preferred list and that was not a problem for their staff and communication between that vendor and the MC staff went very smoothly. I would absolutely recommend the Monson Center to anyone and I hope to be able to attend another event there in the future!

They made our wedding perfect!

Amy and her staff at the Monson Center were a delight to work with. They made sure everything was exactly how we wanted, provided recommendations, and answered all of our questions within a day. When a situation outside of their control impacted some of our wedding plans, Amy immediately reached out to me and we worked through a solution that matched our needs. We never heard 'no' to any of our plans and Amy did everything she could to make sure our big day was exactly how we pictured it, including working with caterer to get the required paperwork so we didn't have to worry about it. I would highly recommend them!

Beautiful old mansion. Great staff. Good value.

This is a beautiful old mansion. Very formal if a bit small. We were tight in the ballroom. The staff was wonderful. All linens, chairs and tables were included. It was a great experience and we highly recommend them.
