Grand View - Mendon, Massachusetts

Grand View was the perfect venue for our wedding! The outdoor architecture and lakeside views were absolutely unmatched, creating the most breathtaking backdrop for our day. The venue had plenty of space for our guests, and the food was absolutely amazing - our guests could not stop talking about it!

The staff made everything seamless and stress-free. Our coordinator, Erin, went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. If you are looking for a venue that combines stunning views and exceptional service, and incredible food, Grand View is it! It truly made our day unforgettable!

Our wedding at Grand View was absolutely incredible and an amazing experience. The venue itself is stunning and the wedding package a great deal. From the elegant interior and the picturesque outdoor space by the water, it was everything we had hoped for and more despite the light rain showers during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Our venue coordinator Tatiana and the staff were fantastic and helped really make our day special. Tatiana was thoughtful, super resourceful, and always on top of things. From our first meeting to the big day she made everything run as smoothly as possible, helped us navigate through the planning with ease and offered creative solutions to challenges we had. Tatiana and the team genuine care and attentiveness made us feel completely at ease and allowed us to truly enjoy the moment even with all the unexpected hurdles and time delay we faced that day. I highly recommend Grand View and even more with Tatiana in your team. It was a truly unforgettable beautiful experience. I also highly recommend planner @flawlessevents_designs and decorator @premium_events_decor they were also truly amazing and helped make the day incredibly special and beautiful as well.

The first thing I want to say is Grand View is a well-oiled machine. Excellent communication with the staff from the beginning of our journey through the end of our reception. Erin Dean is phenomenal at what she does as an Event Specialist with Grand View. Our ceremony went perfectly as planned. The food, drinks, and service was excellent and everyone had a great time. Several of our guests went out of their way to express that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. Cudos to all at Grand View. Keep up the fine work.

Love,
Jillian & Tim

You don't get better than the Grand View! I love photographing weddings here, it's a photographer's dream. The team there truly care about their couples and are some of the friendliest event pros you'll meet. There are multiple options for the ceremony, including indoor and outdoors and the view of the lake is amazing. I also really love the cocktail hour spaces. The guests are always floored when they walk outside and see the view.

Grand View is a top-notch wedding venue with a very inclusive package that made planning so much easier. Kelly was always SUPER responsive, accommodating, and amazing to work with despite our many, many questions. The venue's cocktail lounge and ballroom with fireplace are beautiful, even the bridal suite and bathrooms are beautifully decorated, and of course the outdoor space on the lake with the terrazza are the show-stoppers and there are so many areas around the property for photos. They accommodated our signature cocktails and their food was really good with many creative and seasonal options to pick from - in fact, their food tasting event was our favorite part of planning and they gifted each couple artwork! Their package included our cake, a full dining set-up, linens with many fabric and color options, printed name cards, votive candles, table numbers, sign stands, and more, and they were completely flexible to arrange the spaces and decorate how we wanted. They hosted a great rehearsal, and our coordinator even came to our dinner when I forgot something at the venue! They decorated everything perfectly and were very attentive to us during the wedding - they even made sure to come up to our sweetheart table to wish us a wonderful first dinner as newlyweds! The only slight con was that they've had some recent turnover, so our day-of coordinator changed 4 times. For us, it was early in our planning so it didn't have much of an impact when it really mattered towards the end. But does make me wonder what's going on and whether the timing was more impactful for other couples.

Grand View was the very first venue we toured when we started looking at venues – we toured others after, but found ourselves comparing each one to what we first saw at Grand View, and finally had an “ah-ha” moment knowing we obviously had already found the perfect place to have our dream wedding! What truly made everything so easy for us is the unbelievable package they offer, which includes so many big components such as food, premium open bar throughout the entire night, custom wedding cake, event coordinator, bridal attendant, and SO MUCH MORE. This was a HUGE deciding factor, because it meant one less outside vendor we had to try and search for. Our guests could not stop raving about the food, which there was so much of. They provided 6 different passed apps during cocktail hour, a fruit & cheese display, salad course, second course, main course, dessert, and a coffee / tea station (YES, all of that is included in the package!). This is a one-event only venue which honestly makes all the difference in the world. Every part of the venue whether it be outdoors, indoors, our private bridal suite, and even the bathroom, had the perfect photo-opt. The pictures truly do not even do justice on how absolutely stunning the venue looks in person. My attendants were so good about checking in on me basically every minute to make sure I was okay, had what I needed, or for literally ANYTHING. Things can naturally get hectic when you’re being pulled in different directions and sticking to a timeline on the day of, but that’s why it’s so crucial to have people such as Kelly, Tatiana, and Meredith from the Grand View to make sure it all goes smoothly!

As a wedding vendor my point of view is different then guest but none the less I think it’s important to leave a review when things go so well. I have worked with the staff at Grand View a few times now. I am a very client-centric photographer and I love how everyone at the Grandview puts their clients first. Both times I have worked at Grandview it has been an attitude of one team with the client/couples in mind. This is so important when looking for a venue. Their communication is excellent, kind and courteous. The grounds are flawless. They have so many
different looks for couples to have their photos taken and the best part is it’s all so close together which it makes it easy to use the space. The food is great and has been on time. I really enjoy working at this venue.

We had a beautiful, seamless wedding at Grand View on July 9, 2023. We saw a dozen venues before Grand View but none felt quite like us. The day we met Kelly at Grand View, we knew we had found the one! Kelly is a fantastic manager and is always calm, cool, and collected. She goes above and beyond to ensure your day is the wedding of your dreams. The venue is gorgeous and the staff are a well oiled machine. We were informed that if the weather was not cooperative, we could make a game time decision and move the ceremony inside/outside just minutes before, if needed. We are still hearing from friends and family how much they enjoyed our wedding, especially the food!
