Booking the Red Barn at Outlook Farm for our July 2022 wedding was hands down the easiest decision…read moreto make and most definitely the BEST decision we made. From start to finish, from the very first time we viewed the venue, until months later- our wedding was seamless, amazing, and most importantly, stress free. The Red Barn was the first venue we looked at. We knew we wanted an outdoor ceremony, outdoor space for cocktail hour, and a beautiful, big room. The Red Barn checked all the boxes. We put down our deposit the very next day as we knew this was a venue we did not want to sleep on! Planning was SO easy and straightforward. As soon as we booked, we got set up with the amazing Alex, who was going to be our day of coordinator. She was communicative, helpful, and patient. She responded quickly to every annoying query I had, she kept us updated with our timeline of planning, and she was understanding when oopsie- we missed the tasting we were supposed to go to. She graciously set us up at the next one with no questions or drama. The planning process was very smooth due to Alex's expertise. The rehearsal was stress free and straightforward. The day of our wedding was more than we could ask for. Literally everything went to plan due to Alex being so on top of everything. She was kind to the many personalities in both of our families and felt more like a friend to us by the end of night. I cannot say enough good things about the Red Barn as a venue for a wedding. It is absolutely gorgeous, I feel like we did not need too many decorations as the venue itself is stunning. The food was delicious! During cocktail hour, it felt like there were so many servers with so much food, on top of the stunning cheese and fruit display. The kitchen was also very helpful and sensitive to the allergies in our group- one being my husband who had a nut allergy. The drinks and bartenders were fabulous- we told Alex that our group drank a lot of espresso martinis and the bartenders were ready when we started ordering them. AND they were delicious to boot. The staff was fabulous! All of the servers were professional and personable. The price for everything and the many options for food and drink were well suited to many budgets. I could gush for many more paragraphs about how amazing this venue is. Alex and the crew have made the Red Barn into a well-oiled machine. I cannot say anything bad about our experience and I know I can attribute that to them. Our guests are still talking about our venue months later. If you want to have the most amazing wedding day at a beautiful venue with wonderful people, do yourself a favor and book the Red Barn. You will not regret it. Thank you Alex and crew for the most memorable day and a fantastic experience!

She went above and beyond on our wedding day to ensure we had drinks, food, even going as far as helping my mother in law get to and from photos. She helped keep our little one entertained throughout the night so we were able to truly enjoy ourselves. Every single guest commented on how incredible she was-- if I could give her more than 5 stars I would.

The Weather could not have been better, spirits were high and all came to celebrate. after postponing our wedding a full year due to Covid 19, our special day finally arrived. Unfortunately not everything went as planned. After taking pictures at the church Wen & I arrived to the Wedding reception only to learn that unforeseen traffic due to an event taking place in the seacoast area prompted a 2 hour delay in the arrival of our caterer to serve our guests. Well it was Joe Pet who informed me of the situation but with Joe's professionalism and experience as a seasoned Master of Ceremony's he kept the days events on track. He continued to entertain our guests with musical selections consistent with our wedding theme as he offered suggestions on how we could remain on track with our ceremonials, including the the entrance of the wedding party, special dances, cutting the cake, etc. Joe's calming demeanor and time managing skills basically saved the day by realigning the timeline for the days events. Comments from our guests were overwhelming and everyone had a great time. Thanks to Joe the reception was a great success. The music was great and the dance floor was packed from from first dance to last. Absolutely no issues regarding volume or musical selections, Joe has a great knack for working the room as well, he was very accommodating to our guests by taking requests and making everyone feel special and a part of the event. I would recommend A Beat Away entertainment for any private or corporate event, Professional & Reliable service at a reasonable price. Thanks again Joe! Russ & Wendy

Bob and Nancy Fauci of…read moreMusic Fantasy Weddings are an incredible team and will help to make your wedding day the celebration of your dreams. Every step of the way, Nancy was thorough, responsive, and helpful. Over the course of our time working together Nancy gathered information about my husband and me from each of our perspectives and gave our guests a bit of backstory about us and our relationship before they introduced us at dinnertime which was a unique and personal touch. During the dancing we were surprised to see that they had included a lighting projection of our names and our wedding date which was both an unexpected and incredible touch. DJ Bob had everyone dancing from start to finish; we have heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests. They took requests from guests, but also made sure that my husband and I got a say before the wedding day arrived and they played every single song we requested. Their mixes were the perfect combination of new and old so that every guest was able to dance to tunes from their own decade. Their prices are a bit higher than we were quoted at other companies but that includes beautiful uplighting and incredible service. They are well worth every penny. I would not hesitate to recommend Bob and Nancy to any bride or groom, and I plan to give their contact information to anyone looking for a DJ service. Thank you both for making our dreams come true!

Great Circle did not disappoint and treated us to simply amazing food and hospitality.

All of our friends and family from all over the country couldn't stop raving about the food, and their new Tap Truck was a hit serving as both a source of ice cold draft beer and a conversation piece. As expected, the raw bar was top notch, and the tenderloin popovers, cheddar bites, bacon wrapped scallops, and deviled eggs were so tasty I barely had room left for the main course because I couldn't stop taking more! Our entree selections were similarly satisfying with a delicious chicken dish, glazed rainbow baby carrots, and their clam chowder being notable standouts. The sirloin carving station was a real hit, particularly with their fig and wilted arugula accomplishments, and Chef Ned's bright and engaging personality made this event really stand out with a friendly greeting and engaging conversation for all, both young and old. The whole team was exceedingly friendly and engaged, not cool and aloof like some service staff can be. I'd particularly like to give a shout-out to Jen who not only guided us through all of the planning steps leading up to the big day, but also was kind enough to go to the store after her set up was done and pick up more ice for us for our self-furnished beverage station. Many caterers would have treated this as a "not my problem"situation since we weren't paying them to provide beverages, but she went above and beyond to help ensure our event was a success. I have zero reservations about calling Jen at Great Circle for help planning our next big event and neither should you!
