Avenir Reviews

Kacey, Amy, Aubrey, and the team were amazing!! She went above and beyond leading up to the wedding making sure we were stress free. She kept us sane throughout the whole process! Kacey’s communication was spectacular. There was never a moment where we felt like we had no idea what’s happening with our wedding. Our timeline for the day was so detailed and organized. Kacey made sure everyone was where they should be the day of the wedding, everything was getting set up correctly, and we had everything I needed from start to finish. Amy and Aubrey were right by my side making sure I was eating, drinking, and my dress was on point for pictures. I remember right before I was going to walk down the aisle, Amy checked my makeup, my dress, then she asked me to spit out my mint into a napkin that was in her hand. These little moments really show how much they care to make sure you have the perfect day. We could not be more grateful for Kacey and the team. She helped make our wedding day perfect! We cannot recommend the Avenir enough! Love, Phibe and Shaleyse Smallwood

The Avenir was absolutely incredible. They were organized, kind and great with communication. They made sure everything with all our vendors was in place and they made the day amazing. From the food, to the set up, to the staff everything was so beautiful. I would use the Avenir again in a heartbeat! Sydney our wedding producer was outstanding!

We couldn't have picked a better location, venue, and team to design and execute our dream wedding than the Avenir! From the very first day we toured the site, the staff have made the stressful journey that is wedding planning feel like a breeze. We are forever thankful to our producer Kacey Sharpe, who was with us every single step of the way. We continue to highly recommend the Avenir to all engaged couples!

Kacey was amazing!! She went above and beyond leading up to the wedding - she kept us sane throughout the whole process! She understood our vision immediately and came to every vendor meeting, so we knew we could relax on our wedding day because she handled everything. Our timeline for the day was so detailed and organized. Kacey made sure everyone was where they should be the day of the wedding, everything was getting set up correctly, and we had everything I needed from start to finish. We could not be more grateful for Kacey. She helped make our wedding day perfect! We cannot recommend the Avenir enough!

Avenir was the first venue we toured, and nothing else came close to it. Emily was incredibly responsive and helpful with making our wedding dreams come true within our budget. Our wedding coordinator was Sydney and she was also amazing!!! She was also very responsive and super helpful with the planning process. She had all of the little details covered and helped alleviate a lot of stress, especially the week before the wedding and on the day of. Everything ran so smoothly and all of our guests raved about the venue and service. Highly recommend!

Avenir was the absolute perfect place for our wedding. Everything about it is so beautiful and well kept. The staff was extremely professional and attentive. Our event coordinator was Kacey, she was so amazing to work with she really made sure every detail was perfect. She really made me feel at ease through the entire process.

I know everyone always says that their wedding was the best day of their life, but our wedding at Avenir was 100000% the best day ever! I knew that when I found my wedding venue, it would make me feel some type of way, and when I walked into just the foyer of Avenir, I was so sure without a doubt that I would choose it. I wanted a space that truly felt like it was made for weddings, and Avenir absolutely is. Walking from the entry space to the ballroom, the tall ceilings were everything I could have asked for. Everything was so white and elegant, you could do so much with the space (add your own pops of color here and there, like I did with my koozie favors and floral centerpieces). The chandeliers throughout were stunning and added such a high class vibe to our wedding. Not to spend time talking about the bathrooms, but even the bathrooms were beautiful, updated and immaculate! And the landscaping outside was stunning for photos. Everything was so well manicured and I love the greenery in our photos. Sydney was my event producer, and she was AMAZING. I swear I would send an email and Sydney would answer before I could spiral into a freak-out about whatever it was I needed clarification on. My husband and I live in New Jersey, so we didn't have our in person meeting with Sydney until our tasting, and it was like we had known each other already. Sydney was so knowledgeable about alcohol, hors devours pairings, and everything in between. She was always willing to check on something for me, or show me the up lighting options 15 times before we made up our minds. On the day of our wedding, I have no idea if anything went wrong because everything was fabulous. I'm honestly so sad that it's all over because I had the absolute best time planning our wedding with everyone at Avenir. All of our friends and family continuously talk about how great everything came together. We had about 215 people attend our wedding, and the way the producers set up the entire room and dance floor made it feel like there wasn’t an ounce of space that was wasted, nor too cramped. And last but definitely not least, the food was impeccable. Literally the best food ever. In no way, shape, or form was it "wedding food". I never imagined having chicken at my own wedding, but at our individual tasting (since we are from out of state and couldn't go to the group tasting) it was perfect, and even better on our wedding night. We had an open bar, and everyone raved about the bartenders pouring the drinks. I can't thank Sydney enough for helping to create the most amazing wedding for us. Avenir is truly the full package!!!

We had the pleasure of working with Sydney throughout our planning process and as our wedding producer for our event. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about her. She was readily available to answer all the questions we had and worked to make sure that we were happy with everything. Our wedding on October 7th was everything that we could have imagined. Sydney, Amy (Bridal Attendant), and Maria (Event Manager) were incredible. The day would not have gone as smooth as it did without them. They were a joy to be around—took their jobs very seriously but were also so approachable and kind throughout the whole night. We’re incredibly grateful for the whole team.

My wife and I just had our wedding at Avenir. The venue is gorgeous, the staff was exceptional, and the night was a dream come true. Kacie was our wedding planner, and she was incredibly helpful. Without her, I am not sure how we would have prepared for everything. She was attentive and easy to reach when we had any questions. She was there on the wedding day to keep everyone in line and everything on time. We are grateful for the amazing venue and staff that we worked with. I highly recommend having your wedding at either of their locations.

Our daughter’s wedding in Avenir was above my expectations. The wedding coordinator was
Sydney Davis, very professional and pleasant lady.
Our daughter and her husband live in Alaska, taking under consideration time differences I was constantly sending emails, calls and Sydney always responded quickly and professionally.
It was a pleasure to work with her and rest of the staff.
They were very helpful in everything.

We cannot speak highly enough about Sapphire Event Group, Avenir, or our event producer, Sydney! Our wedding was everything we could have hoped for and it was the good people at SEG that made it happen. They had excellent communication, were remarkably diligent and professional in the way they made our wedding happen, and made you feel cared for the entire way through the process. Sydney is incredible, never letting anything phase her, even as some things changed at the last minute. We are so grateful!

The venue itself is amazing. Great space for cocktail hour and the dance floor/table set up was perfect. Plenty of room for dancing and a table arrangement that made mingling easy. No one felt stuck in the corner.

The entire staff was incredible and the day was perfect. You cannot go wrong with Avenir!

Kacey Sharpe was our wedding coordinator/producer for our wedding on May 7, 2023 at Avenir. She was absolutely fantastic. Not only is she knowledgeable and organized, but she is also sweet and easy to work with. Both my husband and I were able to connect with Kacey and convey our aspirations for our wedding day. Both my husband and I are crafty and creative, and we thought we could handle our wedding day vision without a coordinator. After our first meeting with Kacey, we were so thankful to have her. She asked questions that we had not considered and helped layout the foundation for the wedding. As we got closer to the wedding, she assisted with all the details. She also took over communication with the vendors, which allowed for a seamless wedding day. Our wedding involved a room flip from the ceremony into reception. This was a lot of work and it had to happen in a short period of time. Kacey and her team delivered, and the reception room exceeded our expectations. Kacey checked in with my husband and I throughout the reception, ensuring our needs were met. She was also able to work with our photography and videography vendors to ensure all the images were captured but also that we were able to pause and really enjoy our special day. One memory that comes to mind was when Kacey plated us our wedding cake in the bridal suite as we changed outfits, which allowed my husband and I to connect away from the crowd for just a few short minutes. I give Kacey my highest recommendations. She will make you feel like the most important bride/couple. Even when management reached out during our wedding week to see if we had any questions, Kacey had already answered them. We hope to work with Kacey again soon, perhaps even planning a one-year anniversary stop to Avenir in the future! We give her our highest praise possible. Thank you, Kacey!!

My wedding was 4/14/23 at Avenir. I couldn't have asked for a better location. Avenir had everything I was looking for. I loved the beautiful, white, clean ballroom with the gorgeous chandeliers. The large white dance floor was perfect. I was a little hesitant about the dark carpet when I first toured the place and when brought it up to the sales rep she assured me that once the room was full, it gives a much needed contrast to the room and she was so right. Looking back at photos and video, the dark carpet is perfect and I can't imagine light fooring looking good.

My wedding producer was Sydney and she is a wedding guru. I have worked at a wedding venue for over 10 years and I can tell you she went over every little detail of our wedding to a T. There is no stone that she will leave unturned when it comes to what you want for your wedding. We ended up with an absolutely gorgeous day in April and switched to an outside ceremony last minute, there wasn't a single beat skipped by the entire Avenir staff, you would have thought that was the plan all along.

I had a vendor try to bypass Sydney and reach out to me while we were taking photos pre-ceremony, day of, with set up issues. Panick set in, I called Sydney, she had already figured everything out. She's a rockstar. My brand new husband, 10 minutes into cocktail hour, accidently stepped on the back of my dress and broke my bustle, a potential nightmare. No worries, Sydney pulled safety pins out and fixed it right up. Talk about above and beyond.

I didn't have to worry about a single thing the day of the wedding. Sydney coordinated with all the vendors, knew our timeline like the back of her hand, and ran the show.

I can't imagine holding our wedding in another venue. The service at Avenir was just top notch. They're professionals, they know what they're doing. The entire staff was amazing. Kaitlyn, our wedding attendant was the sweetest. She was somehow always there when we needed her to be. There was never a time when we needed something that we couldn't look around and she was right there. She also made sure my make-shift bustle stayed put throughout the night. The bartenders were great, I don't know how they kept up with our cocktail hour because our guests can be heavy drinkers, but they did an amazing job.

I have absolutely zero complaints about our wedding at Avenir, if we had to go back and redo the day I would choose Avenir again and again. The venue is absolutely stunning. It has that wow factor when your guests walk in and see the ballroom with those chandeliers. What you can't put a price on is the experience the staff has. I don't think there is anything we could have thrown at them that they couldn't handle with professionalism and a cool, collected smile. A big, gigantic thank you goes out to the entire staff for making our day an absolute dream!

Avenir is the perfect venue for a large event. We had 150 guests yet it did not feel packed. The ceremony space, lobby, bridal suite, cocktail area, ballroom- the square footage of this venue is everything.
The staff is so friendly and professional. Sydney was our event coordinator- the absolute best. She made sure we had every detail catered to and communicated every step of the way.
I would love to have future events at the Avenir space.

I am so happy I chose to have my wedding at AVENIR. What an amazing experience and great team that put together my beautiful wedding.The service and professionalism of the workers at AVENIR as well as my awesome wedding coordinator Sydney - made it as stress free as possible. So grateful to have the wedding of my dreams, thanks AVENIR for making it possible!

We recently got married at Avenir, the Walpole location of the Saphire Event Group, and it was nothing short of a fairy tale. They were the 1st location we toured and it was everything I had always pictured in a wedding venue. Stunning, elegant, modern, Avenir has it all, including the most stunning and massive marble white dancefloor that we spent hours upon hours dancing the night away on. From our first tour to the day after our wedding, they were accommodating to every single request, organized and never missing a beat, and an overall pleasure to work with. To make it helpful I broke down some of the highlights that were the extra cherries on top to us:

Staff: our first interaction with Avenir was through Emily, who is on their sales team. She was the sweetest, running through every detail, pricing, and question with us on our first visit, and had no problem accommodating multiple visits with us so that both sets of our parents could see the venue prior to making a decision. We never felt like we were being pushed or sold, and no request or question seemed outlandish; she was such a joy. When we booked with them and got to meet our event coordinator/ producer Sydney, it made me feel so secure in our decision. We sat down and she went through every single detail, wrote it down in front of us, gave us a copy, and was really great at bouncing ideas off of, giving suggestions, and helping guide us, without ever making us feel rushed. There was nothing we wanted that they couldn't make happen, and it was all done with a smile on their faces. Day of, we had rain and bad weather, and she moved things around and adjusted timelines that still got us exactly what we wanted and made sure we had enough time and locations for photos, and dinner, which meant so much to us. We had a guest lose their coat that night and they went above and beyond to make sure that even a week later, that guest was taken care of, while also not putting the work on us as the bride and groom. The entire night they were always attentive and so helpful to all of our guests and us. They overall are some of the most professional and kind event staff I have encountered.
Day of management: They have an amazing system of having a coordinator for front of the house, back of the house, and someone that stays with the bride and groom all night so you're never looking for them, or honestly really handling anything. They do a good job of having a meeting two weeks before where you can choose all of your "just in case" people, so your only responsibility is to have the best night ever. It allowed us as the couple but also our parents and special guests to be in the moment and having the most fun.
Food: I have been to too many weddings in my life, with many of the same guests having attended mine, and everyone was raving about the food. Dinner was delicious, prompt (we had an accelerated timeline to open the dancefloor that they handled with ease) and hot. No one walked away with an unhappy or an empty stomach (and we can be total food snobs so that's saying something.) They also had a great selection of entrees to offer that made it easy to accommodate any variation of guests and their dietary preferences, all of which you get to taste ahead of time at one of their tastings. Overall, it really was a perfect night and we have the staff at Avenir to thank for that. We can't thank you enough for helping us throw the wedding of our dreams. If you're on the fence, just pick Avenir!

We got married at Avenir on 3/11/23. Our day was absolutely perfect. We loved the elegant and classic look of Avenir. We were looking for a beautiful venue as we were getting married in March so everything would be indoors. Every single space at Avenir is gorgeous! One of our favorite things about it is that there is a separate space for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. We received so many compliments on how amazing the food was.

We were fortunate enough to be working with Sydney who was incredible. She was so knowledgable and helpful. She made the process seamless and we didn't feel too stressed approaching the wedding or day of because we knew Sydney would have things set. The entire staff at Avenir were kind, helpful and so professional during our big day. Sydney and her team helped make our day better than we could have ever imagined!

We'd rate Avenir one hundred out of ten if we could. From the day we stepped through their doors we were in love with the venue as well as welcomed in with open arms and a warm greeting. The planning process was smoother than butter and we loved every minute of it. Most importantly our day was everything my wife and I dreamed of. Safe to say the wedding was a success! I highly recommend you host your wedding here!

Truly could not have been better. Made our December wedding dreams into a reality. Worked with Sydney who absolutely killed every aspect of our big day from planning to execution. She was always there to answer any question and help guide us the entire process. It was a no brainer for us to pick Avenir and Saphire Event Group from the very beginning. Would recommend them to anyone anytime!

We had our wedding at Avenir and our coordinator, Sydney Davis, brought all of our wedding dreams to life. We are so grateful we went with Avenir and SEG for our big day!

The second I stepped into Avenir I knew I would be booking my wedding venue that day. The venue took my breath away- from the gorgeous dance floor and ballroom to the cozy cocktail space and grounds. It was exactly what we were looking for in a venue and it truly delivered on our wedding day. Our day was absolutely perfect. We worked with Sydney and she was a dream. She took care of anything and everything we had envisioned for our day. She truly listened and was always so kind. We were so lucky to be teamed up with Sydney. All of the staff on our wedding day were so attentive and wonderful. We truly felt so special. We could not have asked for a more perfect day.

Avenir and it's staff helped to make my wedding day the most amazing and special day of my life! Brooke Russo was an absolute delight to work with and she was always very responsive with any questions or concerns. The staff at Avenir was top notch and my wife and I are so glad that we chose them! We would definitely recommend this venue because their staff will ensure that your day goes as perfect as humanly possible!

We looked at a few venues, but Avenir offered a lot more for their price. They went above and beyond other venues. Delicious food, and amazing service! They beat our expectation and were very accommodating with any questions or requests! The staff couldn't have been friendlier. The inclusion of an event producer that helps coordinate planning and execution of your wedding is a huge plus. Sydney was ours and she helped take all the stress out of the planning and the actual day. I would highly recommend using them as your venue!

My husband and I got married in September 2022 and we couldn’t have picked a more perfect venue. The Avenir is picture-perfect and was the ideal place for both our ceremony and reception. We had our ceremony outside and there was more than enough comfortable seating for everyone. We even had a beverage station for guests to enjoy before the ceremony started. The reception went so smoothly thanks to the entire crew and if anything went awry, we never knew. Leading up to our day, we worked with our wedding producer Sydney. There are no words to describe how helpful and amazing Sydney was with us. She answered every email, call, and question I had, regardless of how small. Every single detail of our wedding was perfect and exactly how we envisioned it. On the day of, Sydney was there as well, working alongside our event manager Maria, and my bridal attendant Serena, making sure everything went as expected. Each and every one of them played a different part in making our day perfect and I truly cannot thank them enough. Our guests had nothing but good things to say to us and were so impressed with the food and service at Avenir. Thank you again to the entire Saphire Event Group. If you are considering having you’re wedding here, you absolutely should!!

My husband and I had the best wedding we could have ever dreamed of. Brooke Russo was our wedding producer and she was absolutely amazing with her communication, her advice, and just letting us personalize our wedding to our liking. Every question (there were a lot) was answered. She was so kind, and even when there were minor discrepancies, she fixed them and was so gracious to us. On our wedding night she was there to help, and we were pretty sad when we gave her a hug goodbye at the end because she’s been with us the entire journey from start to finish!

Avenir itself is a gorgeous venue, the marble dance floor, the chandeliers, the bridal suite, the ceremony spaces. It was all so grand and opulent! We got a lot of compliments from our guests on the venue space and the food. I was pleasantly surprised by how well seasoned and well cooked the food was.

Avenir gets a 5/5 for me!
