Fruitlands Museum

"We are so happy we chose to have our wedding at Fruitlands Museum. The view alone is so stunning but the day-of staff made our wedding extraordinary. Throughout the planning process, we worked with Laura who is the coordinator through Fireside. She was very easy going and helped us create our dream wedding. The event manager Shaun and attendants who worked our 10/8 wedding provided the most incredible service. They were on-top of every single detail, organized and so kind. Everything ran so smoothly and it truly just felt like a dream. We had guests rave about the service that was truly the best we’ve experienced at any wedding. The food— phenomenal. It was so delicious, all of our guests raved about the quality of the meal. We all know the couple rarely gets to sit down and enjoy their meals but we got the opportunity to sit and eat because of how wonderful and timely the service was. our attendant Shannon brought us snacks and champagne to the bridal suite and appetizers during cocktail hour photos and worked tirelessly the whole night to make sure we had every thing we could possibly need. She was AMAZING. Her timing was impeccable and would meet us on the dance floor with a drink so we didn’t have to stop the fun. We are so grateful to the entire staff and couldn’t be happier with our experience of having our wedding at the Fruitlands museum."

"Came here for a wedding. As a wedding venue, the scenery was beautiful and the dinner & reception set up (tent) was cute. It would have been helpful if there was a larger restroom, and if the wooden canopy near the ceremony area had heated lamps."

"Nice historic site with the farmhouse built in 1800’s where visitors can explore how people lived about two centuries ago. There is a few little galleries, hiking trails and cafe with a great views. We visited the place in August so there were lot of MOSQUITOES!!! Ok"

"Great place to get some history and hiking in. Take a look at the childhood home of Louisa May Alcott and learn a little bit about the utopian movement of the 1840's at the same time. There are also sculpture and hiking trails. The views are amazing too! Need to tire out some young kids? This is the place."

"The small museum buildings have interesting exhibits - we learned about the brief Transcendentalist and longer Shaker presences in Harvard. Hiking trails were nice, though we picked up a lot of (larger, non-deer) ticks."
