Karen Sent on 03/26/2025So glad we choose Grove at Briar Barn Inn
Our wedding at Grove was an absolute dream! The intimate setting was exactly what we envisioned, creating the perfect atmosphere for our special day. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the venue was and how incredible the food tasted—it just kept coming!
A huge shoutout to our coordinator, Jeannine, who was simply amazing. Every time she checked in to see if I needed anything, my answer was always “no” because the team had already taken care of everything before I even had to ask. The attention to detail was impeccable, and they handled all of our personal decor elements with such care.
It was truly the best day—better than we could have ever... -

Merrill Sent on 02/12/2025The Perfect Wedding
My wife and I got married in the cold month of January- and the Grove/ Briar Barn Inn made it perfect! We had been working with them for a year and a half leading up to the wedding, and always felt supported and reassured. Everything went so well, in part because they were incredibly helpful and flexible with setup and coordination. When inevitable small problems presented themselves at the last second, they were on it. They responded promptly to every worry or random question we had, no matter how ridiculous. Julia is a phenomenal coordinator (and person) who reduced all of our nerves and anxiety leading up to the perfect ceremony! Our guests, coming from all over the country... -

My husband and I were very pleased with our exceptional experience having our wedding at the Grove at Briar Barn Inn. We had our dream New England wedding! It was a joy working with Veronica. She was our wedding coordinator and helped make our special day memorable. We planned our wedding out of state and she made the process very smooth for us. A beautiful day we will never forget! -

We had an amazing experience getting married at the Grove at Briar Barn Inn, and we can't thank Julia, our wedding coordinator, enough! From start to finish, she was organized, thoughtful, and made everything run smoothly. The venue is absolutely stunning—perfectly blending rustic charm with elegance.
The day flowed seamlessly, and Julia ensured that every detail was taken care of, allowing us to fully enjoy the celebration. The food was a huge hit, especially the signature cookies, which everyone LOVED :).
We’re so grateful to Julia and the entire team for making our wedding day unforgettable. Highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful setting and an amazing team to bring their vision to life! -

Sylvia Sent on 11/15/2024The perfect day supported by a wonderful staff!
The Grove at Briar Barn is a beautiful venue - convenient to Boston and a great reason for your guests to explore the North Shore. They have the wedding process down to a science and were helpful with recommendations for vendors and all my questions about day-of details. We booked the whole inn for the night of and 10 rooms for the night before, which made for a relaxing and fun weekend experience. No stress about getting from one place to another, and guests could roll out of bed the next morning for brunch (also at the inn). The rooms are wonderful - my friends want to go back for a girls spa weekend.
Our coordinator Julia was so... -

Samantha Sent on 10/09/2024An Amazing wedding
We recently held our wedding at Briar Barn Inn. The entire experience was exceptional, and we’re so grateful to the team, especially our coordinator Jeannine and the servers & bartenders, who ensured everything was flawless.
Briar Barn Inn provided the perfect accommodations for us our guests, with its charming and comfortable atmosphere. The Grove, where our ceremony and reception took place, was absolutely stunning. The space was beautifully set up, and it created just the right ambiance for our special day.
Jeannine was incredible to work with from the planning stages through the day of the wedding. Her organization, attention to detail, and responsiveness made the entire process stress-free. On the day of the wedding, she kept... -

Kristen Sent on 08/10/2024Go with Grove!
Planning and having our June 7th wedding at Grove was a joy from start to finish. Everything was superb, from the accommodations at Briar Barn to the top-tier food (so many of our guests said it was the best filet they’ve had!). But, far and away the best thing about the place was the people. Grove was last on our list of venues to visit and we knew we wanted to have our wedding there 5 minutes into our tour with Ali. Ali was warm, knowledgeable, and easily painted a picture of what our wedding day could look like on site at Grove and Brian Barn. She made checking off our monthly planning to-do’s a breeze and answered every... -

Jackie Sent on 01/25/2024Dream Wedding with Grove at Briar barn Inn!
I cannot put into words how much we loved our wedding with Grove at Briar Barn Inn. We were so impressed with EVERYTHING the venue and inn had to offer throughout our entire planning and wedding day experience.
We got married on 12.31.23 - New Year's Eve! Both Grove and Briar Barn Inn were beautifully decorated for the holidays - our guests described it as magical and like a Hallmark Movie! I highly recommend booking out the entire inn (if your guest count allows for this), because it was so convenient to have every room filled with our favorite people. Our guests loved and appreciated the convenience of staying onsite. The rooms were so nice, too. Overall,... -

Moldorma Sent on 12/26/2023The Grove, a fantastic wedding venue
We held our wedding at the Grove this past fall. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The team there was extremely helpful in the planning and coordinating, and our assigned coordinator Julia was especially great.
The venue is gorgeous, inside and out. The food and drinks are all delicious. We also stayed at the Briar Barn Inn, which was a very comfortable and fun experience.
Overall I would definitely recommend the Grove and Briar Barn Inn if it fits your aesthetic and pricing -

Diane Sent on 10/05/2023One of the best choices we've made for our wedding!
We got married at Briar Barn Inn on 9/2/23 and I cannot say enough about how amazing the venue was!
From the beginning, the venue tour with Jenna was personal, thorough, and personalized - she answered our many (!) questions and was more than happy to look into some very specific requests we had. Everyone on the team at Briar Barn Inn is just as lovely and capable, especially our coordinator Julia. Leading up to and on the day of, she worked seamlessly with our personal wedding planner to make sure that everything went according to plan. I honestly don't think that we would've had as good of an experience without her - everything seemed to be... -

Steven Sent on 06/17/2023Grove was absolutely perfect for our wedding
Despite the unpredictable and unfortunately rainy weather on our wedding day, our coordinator Emily was absolutely incredible. Grove was able to provide two set ups (one outdoor and one indoor) for our ceremony and gave us until the last minute to decide which to use. We decided to have the ceremony inside and everything was absolutely beautiful. We heard from multiple guests that if you didn't know the original plan was to be outside, you would assume the indoor ceremony was the plan all along. It was perfect and we can't thank everyone at Grove enough for making our day stress free and incredibly memorable. Oh, also the food at Grove is the best we have had at any... -

Elizabeth Sent on 06/03/2023Amazing wedding venue!!
I cannot say enough good things about the Grove at Briar Barn Inn!! Some of the top things they have to offer outside of their beautiful venue is the Inn where you can block rooms for you and your guests to stay, the ample getting ready space (whether you choose to get ready in a suite at the inn or the bridal suite at the grove) the beautiful grounds allow for a beautiful backdrop for your outdoor ceremony and pictures and of course their AMAZING food options for your big day (their chef is amazing and the food is to die for!). I cannot forget to mention their warm chocolate chip cookies which is part of every wedding package... -

We were married on 04/15/2023 at The Grove. To say it was magical would be an understatement. Our Day of Coordinator, Alyssa, was amazing and helped to ensure everything ran smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding for us. Also, they have the most amazing cookies (as we heard from all of our guests!!).
For anyone looking to book a venue, we cannot recommend The Grove more highly. -

The Grove hosted my husband and I on March 3 and it was the most perfect day. Julia was more than helpful for anything that we needed. We made changes that day and everything ran perfectly. People always tell you somethings may go wrong but I couldn’t be more grateful because my day was perfect, the grove is a rustic glamorous venue and I would highly recommend -

Emily Sent on 03/26/20232/25/23 Wedding
To say that all my wedding dreams came true is an understatement. Grove at Briar Barn Inn was the first venue that my husband and I viewed in early 2022 and right from the jump we were amazed by just how right the space felt. We were able to view the entire venue, a few of the rooms in BBI, and establish a connection with the wonderful event team. As we decided to move forward with hosting our wedding at this beautiful venue, that connection remained intact. The whole event team was always available to answer any questions we had along the way and it truly made the experience feel so personal. My husband and I opted for blocking... -

What an incredible spot for our magical wedding day - I have lived in the North Shore all my life (57 years) and never knew this hidden gem THE GROVE existed. We came upon it accidentally and so thankful we did! The staff and food are exceptional!! The warmth of this spot will bring that extra special piece to your beautiful day! Big shout out to our Wedding Coordinator Julia D’Agostino for ensuring our day was perfect!! -

Working with Alyssa from Grove at Briar Barn Inn made our wedding venue process so much easier. She and her team were so accommodating and responsive to every request. If they could make it happen, they would! The whole day ran incredibly smoothly and I couldn't have been happier with our experience there from start to finish. We look forward to going back to celebrate anniversaries to come! -

Max C. Sent on 10/27/2022Excellent Venue - Highly Recommend
We got married at Briar Barn in September, 2022 after booking the venue about 1.5 years prior. BB is the perfect venue for smaller weddings. The amount of contact we had with the BB team in the months leading up to the wedding was very helpful to answer numerous small questions and talk through logistics of the day. Our assigned planner, Alyssa was incredible both leading up to the wedding and day-of running the show, and made the day feel relatively effortless!
BB is perfect for couples who want to be able to control as many or as few of the details as they want, since you can hire your own vendors, bring decorations, bring dessert, etc.... -

My husband and I got married at Briar Barn Inn on 3/19/22 and it was truly the best day of our lives!! From the beautiful inn where we spent the weekend to the warm and inviting ambiance of the venue and then the food and drinks that we were able to enjoy, the experience was incredible.
The most stand out part of the weekend and weeks leading up to our day was our coordinator, Emily. I really can’t put into words how grateful I am to Emily. She put me at ease the first meeting I had with her which is not easy as a bride-ha! Emily was easy to communicate with and always very responsive, especially... -

Kayla Sent on 03/30/2022Beautiful in every aspect
The Briar Barn Inn is truly beautiful in every aspect that couples are looking for in a wedding venue. It's a venue that encompasses everything all at one site. It was the only wedding venue that we looked at. I knew from the beginning that this was the place for our wedding. We got married on 5/31/2021, after canceling our original date of 2/13/2021 due to covid, we had the most magical day, as expected. The Briar Barn Inn was so accommodating and understanding when we had to choose a new date. They made the process easy. That Monday when we finally said "I do", it was everything we thought it would be and more. -

Emily was terrific! She was easy to work with and understood the endless tasks/questions that were on our list. It was such a pleasure to work with her and to fully be able to enjoy our wedding and not have to worry about a thing. She worked seamlessly with our other vendors. I have nothing but great things to say about all of them. -

Michael Sent on 01/08/2022Absolutely wonderful!
Grove is AMAZING! My partner & I decided to throw our wedding together in just over a month due to some unforeseen circumstances in our family, and we got incredibly lucky that Grove had a cancellation due to COVID on a Saturday night during the timeframe when we wanted to have it. We loved the pictures we saw online, but we loved the venue even more when we visited it in person. It was truly meant to be. Jenna in sales was very helpful and thorough answering all of our questions quickly and she understood time was of the essence. Once we booked, we worked with Jeannine as our coordinator who was absolutely wonderful! The amount of details that...
