Fern Hill Barn Celebrates Love & Family in Spencer, MA

Perched on a picturesque hilltop in the beautiful countryside of Massachusetts stands a delightful family-owned farm and wedding venue boasting 15 years of award-winning legacy.

Fern Hill Barn strikes an ideal balance between traditional and modern: an idyllic rural location that offers peace and seclusion while conveniently situated just 60 miles west of Boston for epic urban wedding adventures. The natural surroundings of this magnificent venue offer a captivating backdrop for joyous weddings and stunning photographic memories. From May to October, an elegant 1,400-square-foot tension pavilion covers the patio, providing shelter for up to 250 guests. Soft lights emanate from the pavilion's canopy ceiling onto a stunning black-and-white patterned dance floor. Black wooden Chiavari chairs adorn round tables with exquisite china, cutlery, crystal glasses, and luxurious linens. Enclosed sides and gas heaters are available in case the weather proves unfavorable. The ample indoor grand hall can comfortably accommodate up to 150 guests from November to April. Exposed beams, a generous fieldstone fireplace, and an impressive built-in oak bar will surely impress!

The original farmhouse serves as a private and luxurious get-ready space for your wedding party to prepare for the festivities, featuring a private suite on the second floor and even onsite hair and makeup services.

Whether it's the breathtaking scenery, romantic ambiance, or modern amenities, Fern Hill Barn has everything necessary to make your New England wedding dreams come true. The devoted team at Wedgewood Weddings feels honored to assist in creating exquisite weddings and memories that will last a lifetime.

Amazing staff

We got to meet with Carly for our tour and she was an absolute ray of sunshine and really clicked with us. She was so ready to make several quotes for us to experiment with all of the options the venue had to offer. She also went out of her way to call us a week or two later to check in. At that point my fiancé and I had already decided on the venue but needed another couple weeks to make the down deposit and she was able to come up with a flexible plan for us to have exactly that time frame we needed financially but still lock in our date so it wouldn’t be taken from us. We couldn’t thank her enough for making that call to keep our date.

Later we had a meeting with Alyson for picking up our planning binder and she was very knowledgeable! She was patient with our questions, let us walk away and enjoy the venue for a moment as we thought of anymore questions and everything was able to be answered. She helped guide us through what to expect in terms of timeline and feel really confident.

Both of them have shown us nothing but warm welcomes and being in our corner throughout the whole process, and as a lesbian couple, we didn’t feel the same with a lot of the other venues we toured. They know what they’re doing, clearly passionate about the same little details we are and it makes the whole process feel like we’re a well oiled team. We couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to be able to stop by again soon for other appointments.

Perfect venue for us

We can't say enough about our incredible vendor team. We didn't have to worry about a single thing on the day of our wedding. Our vendors were communicative, knowledgable, and highly reliable. Zukas was the perfect choice for us - you cannot beat the value this venue delivers. We worked with Alsyon on every detail and she made the wedding truly so easy for us. She truly met every single request and was highly communicative and flexible throughout the process. She even accommodated a few changes the week of. The food was amazing, the bar tenders were fantastic, and the setting was just gorgeous. We are so grateful we went with Zukas and don't have a single regret.

Magical Venue - Zukas Hilltop Barn

What a gem we were lucky to find in Spencer MA. Our daughter's wedding was magical - and our guest traveled from different parts of the state and the country - and all were in awe of this magical hilltop spot - called Zukas. Alyison, her staff - all made our daughter's wedding extra special. The food was excellent too- just a perfect day !

Love Zukas Hiltop Farm. We have been luck enough to watch this facility grow over the years. A family run business is always a great thing to see. Pete and Lynn Zukas are the best! Every time we go back we see something new. From the breathtaking views to the quality of food and service. It is a favorite of ours and many a customer that have had a wedding at Zukas.
