Hancock Shaker Village is a living history museum on 750 acres at the base of the Berkshire Mountains in western Massachusetts, offering weddings and private events across a campus of twenty historic buildings. Heirloom vegetable and herb gardens, farm animals, and sweeping mountain views provide a setting unlike a conventional event venue. Event spaces range from the heirloom gardens — available for outdoor ceremonies and photographs — to The Timberframe, which accommodates up to 75 guests, and The Event Tent, which hosts up to 270 guests with views of the surrounding mountains and one of the oldest working farms in New England. The Village sits approximately two and a half hours from Boston and three hours from New York. Staff assist with events from bridal luncheons and rehearsal dinners through the wedding day itself, and the Village provides couples with a curated list of regional vendors including caterers, florists, photographers, videographers, sound rental, and entertainment.

It's not just a location; faraway can also be a state of mind. We encourage those who are still young at heart to break away from conventional behavior. You may anticipate a crazy and familiar combination that will surprise you. Through the lens of Faraway, Nantucket takes on a fresh and unfamiliar appearance. The nautical exploits of an exotic captain provided the inspiration for the bright and airy atmosphere of the guest rooms, which feature coastal design elements. The folly of quirky textiles and objets d'art reflect the treasured items that she collected during her travels to tropical ports and have been meticulously displayed on the Grey Lady. Her tale is told within the confines of the traditional New England architecture that dates back two centuries. A buzzing bar lounge with a diverse and sophisticated cocktail menu, which draws its inspiration from the owner's travels throughout the Mediterranean. The Courtyard is complemented by a living room that is exquisitely furnished, private dining rooms, and a brass-clad café that serves takeaways at all hours of the day.

Willow Spring Vineyards places a premium on community and quality. As a young family winery, our dedication to the people, vines, and environment that make up the region we call home is strong. We invite everyone to come by and participate in this event. We'll most likely be tending the vines or harvesting the grapes alongside family and friends if we take a stroll around the vineyards. So come try our wine and become a part of the Willow Spring Vineyards legend. At Willow Spring Vineyards, we can make your fantasy come true, whether it's an exquisite setting, rustic charm, or a green facility. This hidden gem, only 30 miles north of Boston, is the ideal venue for your big day. Willow Spring Vineyards is a picture-perfect location for unforgettable events in our hand-hewn post and beam barn, which sits on more than twenty acres of land. The barn can accommodate up to 99 people for events. A large landscape project completed in 2015 resulted in a lovely lawn area and patio with a stunning fireplace. This grass is large enough to accommodate a tent for up to 200 people. In the year 2000, Jim and Cindy Parker bought a dilapidated barn and a plot of land from Mary Ray. We started the adventure with a strong focus on restoration and agriculture. Beginning with the dismantling of the eighteenth-century building, we began mapping and marking each piece in preparation for potential re-assembly. The edifice was pulled down piece by piece and logged for rebuilding with the help of family, friends, neighbors, and passers-by. For the huge space, an energy efficient system was designed as part of the green building planning. This barn is truly green, thanks to geothermal heating and cooling and a photovoltaic system (solar panels). Our two acres of grapes surround the beautiful 18th century barn, which can easily be seen from the road. The magnificent 25+ acres continue behind the barn, which may be appreciated from the wraparound deck or in front of the majestic hearth.

Christopher Coombs, the wunderkind chef at Deuxave, cherry-picks from both traditions, masterfully blending what might seem like opposing impulses—hearty (upgraded) French onion soup; the swoosh-heavy, haute-cuisine-styled "Duo of Pork & First of the Season Apricots" —into an unlikely menu.

Our virtual and in-person dumpling workshops are a unique way to bring your team together, whether you're celebrating a product launch or searching for a novel team-building activity. Continue reading to learn more about our in-person, virtual, and instruction-only options. We are a farm-focused, woman-owned dumpling company that seeks to be a good company in all ways. That's why we carefully select our components and prioritize our community in everything we do. Chef Irene Li and her two older siblings started Mei Mei as a food truck in 2012. Mei Mei food is a reflection of the Li siblings' best childhood dining memories as Chinese-American youngsters growing up in Boston. "Mei Mei" means "little sister" in Mandarin Chinese. Mei Mei's unique dumpling combinations reflect our passion for wonderful New England ingredients and a desire to create delicious dishes. We work with small, independent family farms in the Northeast to acquire pasture-raised meat. Throughout the year, we may get 70 percent of our food from the Northeast. Mei Mei has been a "Open Book" firm since 2018, which means they disclose all financial information with all employees, empowering them to think and act like managers regardless of their position or title. The business has altered since the pandemic. Our food truck has been taken off the road, and our restaurant dining room has been closed. But Mei Mei isn't going anywhere; in fact, our dumplings are making their way all over the world! Mei Mei dumplings are now available at farmers' markets in Wayland, Natick, Melrose, Roslindale, Belmont, Cambridge, Somerville, and elsewhere in the Greater Boston area.

Deerfield Inn has welcomed guests since July 1884, making it one of New England's enduring historic country inns. It sits on Old Main Street in Deerfield, Massachusetts — a village recognized as a National Historic Landmark and surrounded by working farms, period homes, and the pastoral Connecticut River Valley countryside known locally as the Happy Valley. The inn's large white-columned clapboard building retains much of its original character: a robin's egg blue front porch ceiling, the original hayloft door, a cast-iron horse weathercock, and preserved historic flooring. Twenty-four guest rooms are split between the main house and carriage house, and Champney's Restaurant and Tavern anchors the property's dining. For private events, the Terrace Café offers a multi-purpose setting with south-facing windows, French doors to a garden patio, a private bar, and coat check, accommodating up to 70 guests for a reception or 50 for a seated dinner. Champney's Restaurant seats 50 for private dinners in a room with period wallpaper, a fireplace, and chandeliers. The inn hosts weddings, elopements, corporate retreats, and social gatherings — with on-site accommodations so guests can stay through the celebration.

We would like to invite you to join us in hosting it. The Hourly Oyster House can accommodate groups of all sizes for cocktail parties, reunions, corporate recruiting events, and other gatherings, and can satisfy a variety of budgetary requirements. An inviting neighborhood outpost in the heart of Harvard Square, The Hourly Oyster House serves thoughtfully sourced and playful prepared seafood and oysters from New England and beyond. The bar offers an extensive selection of signature cocktails, beer and wine as well as a carefully curated selection of craft beers and wines. Dunster Street, which was originally known as Water Street in Colonial times because of its proximity to the old banks of the Charles River, was once the meeting point for the horse-drawn wagons, known as "Hourlies," that left Cambridge each day – on the hour – for Boston. Dunster Street is now a residential neighborhood. This line, which was founded in 1826, was one of the first high-frequency transportation routes in North America and was one of the first in the world. The construction of the Harvard Square subway station marked not only a significant development in transportation, but it also laid the groundwork for future connections, collaboration and innovation between Harvard Square and Boston, and ultimately, the rest of the world. The history of the structure at 15 Dunster Street is just as rich and complex. The exact footprint on which The Hourly stands is believed to be the location where the first Freeman's Oath was printed in 1639. It is also the site of the original Second Cambridge Savings Bank building, as well as Herrell's, which has been a Harvard Square institution for 27 years and is a Harvard Square institution. When it comes to the Hourly, it pays homage to the square's colorful heritage while while providing a contemporary atmosphere and experience.
