Mila [mee:lah], short for Milagros, meaning “miracles” in Spanish, represents a love story—one of love for each other, family, and a deep passion for hospitality. Mila’s owners, Jay and Liz Curcio, crossed paths over a decade ago through a client of The White Apron. Jay founded The White Apron in 2004, starting from his own kitchen. By 2011, the company had grown to cater weddings across the NH seacoast. Liz, an event planner and trained chef, was living in NYC and helping her best friend plan her wedding in NH, which just so happened to be catered by The White Apron. When Liz and Jay met, sparks flew, and they soon teamed up to grow The White Apron into a premier off-premise catering business, serving events across Maine, Northern Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and the Lakes Region. Through ingenuity and the dedication of their talented staff, The White Apron not only weathered the pandemic but has continued to elevate its food and service as its clientele expands. While the off-premise business flourished, Jay and Liz shared the dream of opening a venue where they could create exceptional experiences for their clients year-round, without the constraints of an off-site kitchen. That dream is now a reality. The venue is named "MILA," short for Milagros, in honor of Liz’s grandmother. Mila was a forward-thinking, wise woman who, alongside Liz’s grandfather, ran a highly successful bakery for over 50 years. A tough, hardworking, and hospitable entrepreneur, Mila was deeply devoted to her family and community, passing down invaluable life lessons, traditions, and love. MILA by The White Apron honors her spirit, offering a welcoming space where guests feel seen and valued. At its core, the venue is built on a foundation of delicious food, impeccable service, and a classically elegant setting.

Refreshment Spaces and Aces The Moses Stevens Estate at Osgood Hill in North Andover is one of the greatest intact examples of Aesthetic Design in North America, with over one hundred acres of magnificent New England surroundings. The National Register of Historic Places currently includes the 143-acre estate and its buildings. The mansion's exquisite interiors capture the drama of each day in ever-changing conditions of sunlight and shade, with a slogan of "art for the sake of art, beauty for the sake of beauty." The best backdrop for any event is lush landscaping, gardens, and forest walks. Each of the estate's red-brick and riverstone structures is distinct and intriguing, embracing their natural environment as they did over a century ago. The Stevens Estate at Osgood Hill is one of the best preserved examples of the late-nineteenth-century Aesthetic Design Movement. Its tranquil, natural location inspires and enriches visitors, much as it did the carpenters and masons whose work continues to surprise visitors today. The Town of North Andover now owns the Stevens Estate at Osgood Hill, which is maintained by Fireside Catering. A part of the proceeds from our events is re-invested in the estate to help restore and maintain the mansion, estate buildings, and grounds. Five bathrooms have just been restored to their former glory, with magnificent rich colors, antique fixtures, and many original features. By booking The Stevens Estate for your wedding, social event, or meeting, you are assisting in the preservation of this magnificent estate for future generations.

Originally designed in 1880, Moraine Farm has been hailed as "the finest existing example of Frederick Law Olmsted's approach to planning a country estate" by pre-eminent Olmsted scholar Charles E. Beveridge. Olmsted created lawns, hedges, rustic stone walls, and a magnificent meadow – and collaborated with Boston architects Peabody and Stearns to design a massive stone terrace facing the lake, extending the shingle-and-stone house into the landscape. The farm took its name from a low ridge of glacial debris, called a moraine, which Olmsted used to provide an elevated vantage point for the paths and carriage drives that looped through 75 acres of coniferous forest, passed lake and meadow views, and climbed to an overlook on the edge of the 40-acre farm. The Estate at Moraine Farm is a spectacular setting for your wedding or special event. This historic property is set on 175 acres, much of which is conservation land and forest, and is sited overlooking beautiful Wenham Lake.
