Glen Magna Farms Reviews

Glen Magna was truly absolute perfection. We had our wedding in early August, and the flowers were magnificent! The grounds, the house, the tent, it was all just incredibly beautiful. The staff at Glen Magna were also incredible from everything leading up to the wedding to the wedding day. They were attentive, responsive, and made everything in my vision come true. The catering was also exceptional. People are still bringing up the food at our wedding. And, working with the caterers was an exceptional experience, too. The variety of options was amazing, and the food was actually delicious. Everyone thought so! If I could change anything about Glen Magna, it would be to do it all over again! I cannot say enough about the staff, the building, the grounds, the ambiance, the food, etc., etc., etc. Thank you, Glen Magna, for allowing me to have a wedding that exceeded my dreams!

Tiffini was the key person in making our August wedding run extra smooth leading up to and on the day of. Her experience in the wedding industry and solid advice she gave during the decision-making process made us feel confident we had chosen the right venue and was gifted the best talent to execute our dream fairytale wedding. My husband and I are very particular, and she listened to and met every one of our needs. Not only is she very patient and understanding, but her attention to detail, organization and ability to delegate (even the rowdiest, unorganized of crowds), is impressive. She didn’t miss a beat, and I’m grateful to have had someone take the lead so I could relax… what every bride needs! You will be in wonderful hands booking Glen Magna for your next event! Highly recommend this venue and commend the coordinators for all the work they do! Thank you Glen Magna, and thank you Tiffini!

We fell in love with Glen Magna right away! We worked with both Heather and Tiffini and they were rockstars. From the very beginning they were very responsive, answered all our questions and just over all really welcoming. The space speaks for itself with the gardens and the home. If you are looking for a gorgeous outside venue and a charming inside space both packed with amazing photo opportunities then this is your spot. I cannot thank Heather and Tiffini enough as my husband and I both got covid just days before our original wedding date in June and they were so quick to jump in, gave us open dates and helped us move everything to a new date. They honestly helped save our wedding and for that we are so grateful. The day went smoothly, and their team was professional, hospitable, and really took care of us and our guests. If you are between two venues, don’t think about it anymore —this is your venue – you won’t regret it!

Gorgeous venue, like a series of secret gardens! Beautifully kept and cares for greenery and grounds. Samantha and her team at Glen Magna Farms are super on top of it and easy to work with. The venue is contracted with a great caterer (Vinwood) which made things really easy and smooth in terms of coordination. Even as foodies with a critical palate, the food was 10/10 (especially the gelato bar and hors d’oeuvres, though the halibut was kinda dry). The bridal and groom suites for getting ready were lovely, and the house itself was beautiful . We had our dream wedding here and our guests had a wonderful time exploring the lush grounds.

So when walking into this venue I just knew it was it. The stunning garden and the mansion were breathtaking. The Staff is also soo sweet and helpful. I unfortunately had to postpone my wedding very last minute. Which was extremely devastating for me. They were so understanding with it all which was amazing.. We plan on revisiting in 2024 to planning our wedding then. I can't think of my wedding being anywhere else. Please check this place out. You won't regret it. The catering vinwood is also amazing. The staff is so kind, the food is to die for and they will work with you on anything you need. They truly make you feel special.

Glen Magna Farms is a hidden gem! We got married here at the end of September and it was absolutely beautiful. They do a great job maintaining the grounds and the estate is really unique. Heather was our coordinator and was great to work with. She was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the process and kept everything moving along as planned the day of. We could not be happier with our experience and would highly recommend!

Glen Magna Farms is a beauty to behold and a fantastic space to host a wedding. The perennial garden is what sold us on the venue, but it is complimented well by the historic mansion and recently-added permanent tent setup. The team at Glen Magna was great to work with, both on communication and day-of. Since the site is owned by the Danvers Historical Society, there are a few restrictions, but everything was understandable and none of them took away from our wedding day. The venue also pairs with Vinwood for their Catering and Bar services. If you have your heart set on a specific vendor for this its not great, but for us it was one less thing to worry about and the Vinwood team produces some amazing meals. We would definitely recommend this venue for any couple, especially those looking for a more historic, garden-party atmosphere.

Absolutely stunning grounds and mansion, beautiful and functional newly installed permanent tent and an amazing catering company. Can not say enough how perfect our wedding on 5/12/18 was from the service, to the beauty of the mansion and grounds to all the attention to detail and every person we dealt with (especially Robin) who were so attentive to us and our guests. Absolutely would recommend Glen Magna to anyone looking for a beautiful and secluded garden with top notch service!

We had our wedding here on October 21st, 2017 and we could not be any happier with the outcome!
Paige was extremely helpful throughout the whole wedding planning process, I cannot say enough great things about her!
Our ceremony was held in the garden on the premise, which our guests absolutely loved the fall flowers that were in bloom it was beautiful.
The reception was held inside the mansion and on the veranda, I barely had to decorate since there is so much charm and character that the mansion already holds.
Thank you again Paige & the Glen Magna team!

Our wedding was held at Glen Magna Farms in middle October. I can't tell you how many people and vendors told us what a lovely place it was to have a wedding at. All our guests (and vendors) were highly impressed with the beautiful setting indoors and out. With their award winning gardens/grounds, and the historical interior, you can not go wrong for a late Fall or Winter wedding. In summer/spring there is also the option of having a tent. This venue also made it possible to have open bar at a reasonable expense because the purchase of alcohol is wholesale through a choice of 2 preferred vendors. Their catering preferred vendors are amazing, it was hard to choose from. Paige, the Day of Coordinator ... was simply amazing, and a top-notch professional. She had everything covered down to the smallest detail. Such a beautiful memory. I highly recommend Glen Magna Farms for a beautiful wedding site.

Such a charming place to get married! All of my guests and my new husband and I were blown away by this place. The garden was blooming, the staff were so flexible and cooperative.
The house really feels like it is yours for the day. All of my guests came from out-of-state if not out of the country for a May 18th wedding and were very impressed with the venue. Thanks so much!!

The venue, as always (I grew nearby) was beautiful. Perfect! But most importantly, Heather King and her staff/partners were AMAZING! They took on so much to take the load off of my mind, but I never worried for a moment. I was VERY particular about our details and every one of them was carried out perfectly...even better than I thought they could be!

All we can say is WOW!! The Glen Magna crew was outstanding. They were helpful, flexible and professional. They understood what was needed and also gave a few opinions on the decorations that really helped with our decisions. We could not have asked for better service or location.

Glen Magna Farms was an absolute perfect venue. Our venue coordinator, Sam, was extremely accommodating, helpful, and made working with her so simple. She did everything she could and more, to make sure our day was perfect.

The grounds are beautiful, and they were able to accommodate everything our wedding needed. The tent itself was enchanting. Complete with gorgeous string lighting, beautifully dressed tables, chairs, and place settings. The dance floor was reasonably sized and the space had easy access to and from the mansion/bathrooms. The extensive grounds made it easy for guests to spread out and enjoy the beautiful gardens and take in a dream-like environment.

Everyone fell in love with the venue and all of its scenic backgrounds . We took some beautiful pictures and gained loving memories that we will treasure forever. If you want a perfect venue with professional and friendly service.......choose Glen Magna Farms!!!

If you are looking for a venue that is vibrant, lush, unique and well run, Glen Magna is the perfect place for you. Our guests are still raving about our June 2022 wedding. We wouldn’t change a single thing!

Gorgeous setting. All of the staff was so helpful throughout the whole process. Day of the wedding I didn’t have to worry about a thing. The caterer they use had delicious food. All of the guests raved. Would highly recommend!

If you are looking for a venue for your wedding that is romantic, timeless, and professional. Seriously, look no further. Glen Magna has been hosting weddings for YEARS and still isn't known by many which made our wedding that much more special. This breathtaking venue is tucked away, down a long gravel road, surrounded by beautiful gardens. The opportunities for photos are EVERYWHERE. The pergola is the perfect location for that whimsical ceremony, the tent for a moody candle lit evening, and the mansion as your rich focal point. They work exclusively with Vinwood caterers who blew us out of the water with their HOT and FLAVORFUL apps and entrees. Heather was our point of contact and day of coordinator and without her I don't know if our day would have been as special as it was. She was extremely professional, gave spectacular advice, and even provided us with personal photos she took behind the scenes. It may seem silly because although they aren't professional photos they gave us the guest perspective of our day which brought smiles to our faces as we could see how beautiful everything truly was.
We are so grateful for her, the Vinwood team, and the ground keepers of the property. If it wasn't for them, none of our greatest memories would have been made possible.

We cannot say enough good things about Glen Magna. So many guests told us what a beautiful place and wedding it was. My cousin got married at another venue on the North Shore and commented that she couldn't believe that Glen Magna existed and it was the best venue on the North Shore! Heather made everything run seamlessly, we weren't worried about a thing for setup, break down, etc. The food was delicious, especially the hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour. The gardens in late August are just incredible -- everything is blooming with so much color. If you're looking for a garden wedding, Glen Manga is for you. It is so charming and beautiful, all our guests were thrilled.

Not only is it a stunning location, but their staff went above and beyond to help us reschedule our wedding during Covid. We were supposed to get married at Glen Magna in June 2020, but delayed until August 2020 because of Covid. When it became clear that August 2020 would still not be safe for a large wedding, we postponed until August 2021. Glen Magna worked with us to easily and seamlessly move our wedding TWICE, and never changed the pricing. They then allowed us to hold a short, family-only ceremony under the tent in August 2020, and let us use their tables and chairs. It poured during that ceremony so we held it under the tent, but their day-of staff (Paige) held an umbrella over me while I walked down the aisle. The ceremony is still beautiful under the tent because the gardens make a lovely backdrop, so your rainy day back up is set and seamless.

We cannot recommend Glen Magna enough. Their customer service is exceptional and the charm and beauty of the venue just cannot be beat.

This was the absolute perfect wedding venue for my spouse and I. When searching through we didn’t think the photos online appealed to us very much, but walking around the beautiful house and grounds, we knew it would be exactly what we wanted. But we were still so blown away the day of after all the tables, decorations, and everything else was put into place. We are still to this day talking about how no other venue could have lived up. Many guests said the same thing, they all said it was one of the most beautiful weddings they’ve ever been to, and so many of them were running around exploring the house and various garden paths to snap as many photos as they could. The romantic garden was exceptional for our ceremony, the house and grassy lawn brought the unique flair for cocktail hour, and the cozy tent surrounded by flowers and brick walls was absolutely stunning. Our coordinator Sam knocked it out of the park – she was extremely responsive and was great about reaching out to vendors for the things we didn’t know how to handle. There were hardly any hiccups and if there were any bigger issues, Sam must have taken care of it because I didn’t hear or notice a thing! They also impressed me with the speed of the cleanup – we went from a full tent and decorations everywhere to everything in our cars ready to go in about 45 min. Wonderful and professional venue, my spouse and I will always treasure using this for our wedding – Thank you Glen Magna!

Like most COVID-19 couples, we didn't know what to expect or what would be possible for a scaled-down wedding during a pandemic. We had reservations with another venue and less than a month before our wedding date, we booked with Glen Magna Farms. From that moment on, everything seemed possible. The location is out of a fairy tale (trust us, go visit the large Willow Tree they have on their property) and our guests could walk amongst the gardens and grounds to socially distance when necessary. The staff were incredible, keeping us up-to-date and on schedule during the reception. Their exclusive caterer is Vinwood Caterers and all our guests complimented us on the food. Right now, everyone is more comfortable outside and Glen Magna has a wonderful tent that allowed us to have 50 guests (including us!) plus their staff, our photographer, DJ, etc. We didn't feel the pandemic "looming over us" at all; instead, we got to have a beautiful wedding at what may be the most gorgeous venue Greater Boston offers. Walk the grounds (it's free to visit) and book a wedding in 2020. You can your special day if Glen Magna is hosting you.

We were so impressed with Glen Magna at our wedding a few weeks ago. Paige and her team were amazing - they made our day incredibly special. We received so many compliments about the caring staff and how things went seamlessly - all because of Paige and her team. 10/10 would recommend.

We got married at 09-23-2018 and everything was perfect!

1. The garden was so cute so that we immediately decided this was just the place where we'd like to hold our outdoor ceremony. The flowers were all in bloom.

2. My site coordinator, Robin, was incredibly amazing! We DIY our wedding and Robin helped throughout the whole event, assisting in decoration I just told her two days before the wedding! Our wedding was bilingual, but Robin still made everything so nice!

3. The catering service was also fantastic. The food and service was outstanding. The waiters were so sweet that they especially served me with snack and beverage to make sure the bride OK during the whole event. They also helped Robin with the packing up all decoration once the wedding ended.

4. Our wedding size was small (40 guests) so we held our reception in the mansion. It was so cozy and lovely. Actually we searched several venues and Glen Manga was perfect and affordable especially for the small wedding.

Thank you again Robin & Glen Magna team.

Beautiful, fun, and very professional. They made the process so easy and coordinated everything perfectly. We didn’t even need a wedding planner.

The garden is amazing even in the fall and there are so many great picture opportunities.

We got married here on 10-06-2018 and it was perfect. The venue was amazing and beautiful. They delivered on every promise and request thrown at them. The pictures online do not do it justice. Tiffini was awesome in helping us with everything we needed. If you're looking for beauty, affordability, and perfection... Glen Magna Farms is your place!

All my husband and I have to say is WOW!! We were so happy with our choice to use Glen Magna as our wedding venue since we first saw the grounds and beautifully renovated mansion. There wasn’t a single thing we didn’t like - everything was so perfect!! The new tent was also absolutely perfect, it was not only beautiful but functional. All of our guests were blown away by our ceremony in the spectacularly gorgeous gardens. The pictures were completely beautiful with the mansion and exquisite grounds as a backdrop. We seriously were so impressed by the staff and how attentive they were to our needs, our day went off without a hitch. I could cry, because of how amazingly perfect our special day was - we cannot even stop talking about it between the two of us! For anyone considering Glen Magna for their wedding - do it, as it is not only reasonably priced but your event will exceed your expectations!

My husband and I were recently married, this past Labor Day weekend, and it was beyond INCREDIBLE!! We cannot say enough positive things about Glen Magna Farms! The venue was absolutely breathtaking between the pristine landscaping, flowers, and fabulous new tent, which only added to our perfect day! We got married under the Pergola, which was like a dream come true! Our guests couldn’t believe how magical Glen Magna was and many said “It was the most beautiful wedding venue they have ever been to”. Not only was the venue spectacular, but our Wedding Coordinator, Tiffini White was hands down an absolute ROCK STAR, as she went above and beyond during the course of the night! Tiffini was incredibly attentive towards myself, my husband, my parents, and in laws, as she constantly checked in to make sure that we had everything we needed. Not only did Tiffini help immensely throughout the night, but she also took the time to assist in packing up ALL of the event decorations so they were ready to be loaded back in the car once the wedding ended. In addition, to helping with the packing of all the decorations, Tiffini recognized that the transportation of decorations was going to be a little difficult, so she sprung into action and drove her own car back to the hotel with a number of our items that we couldn’t fit into our own car! We HIGHLY recommend Glen Magna Farms as well as Tiffini White for your special day! As it relates to a catering service, we would HIGHLY recommend Vinwood Caterers! Vinwood’s food and service was absolutely outstanding and they are without a doubt the best catering company in the state of Massachusetts! Not only was the food and service second to none, but the level of support and attention to detail that they provided during the planning process, which carried throughout the wedding was unbelievable!
