Like most family-owned businesses, Oakholm Farm owners Christina and Babe make their clients instantly feel right at home. Weddings at Oakholm Farm can be easily personalized to your interests and style: casual, colorful, hip, spiritually inspired or elegant.
You can exchange vows under a rustic solid pine arbor, with a beautiful backdrop Lake Quaboag, surrounded by the beauty of the farm with your closest friends and family. Your wedding party and guests can enjoy a late campfire, dance party, and lingering after-party under a starry night sky or in the estate game room. Also, if you’re a couple who’s exceptionally into beer, you could host a hip, fun micro-brew micro-wedding partnered with Oakholm Brewing, also located at Oakholm Farm.
Set on four acres in a colonial village setting, The Barn at Wight Farm is a venue on beautifully landscaped grounds that include a patio with seasonal dining, a fire pit and a manicured field suitable for tent functions. A beautifully decorated bridal suite is included with all weddings and you can expect expert catering because this property is part of the Table 3 Restaurant Group.
Seeking a hidden-gem wedding venue that's as unique as it is rustic? Look no further than Douglas Orchard & Farm. When this functioning orchard isn’t farming fresh fruits and vegetables, it offers a landscape and event pavilion to serve as the idyllic setting for an intimate ceremony.
Holden's Farm at SummitWynds is fit with growing lavender, sunflowers and breathtaking views overlooking Mount Wachusett, a coveted spot now available for barn weddings with up to 90 attendees.
Winding around the picturesque Quabbin Reservoir, a quiet country road will lead you to Hardwick Winery, a vineyard that is the perfect place to host an intimate wedding. The timber frame barn can accommodate over 100 guests, and the gazebo overlooking the property makes a beautiful spot for a ceremony.

New England Botanic Garden at Tower Hill
Located in Boylston, Mass., New England Botanic Garden at Tower Hill offers a peaceful, tranquil setting for your wedding day. You can host your ceremony at the Secret Garden or Limonaia, your cocktail hour at their Winter Garden or Great Hall and an elegant reception in the Orangerie, their 18-century-like glass conservatory.

Worcester Art Museum
A gorgeous courtyard option can be found at Worcester Art Museum, which has equal parts urban charm and historic elegance, surrounded by art and culture. Its Renaissance Court boasts magnificent architectural spaces, and its grand staircase provides an equally grand entrance for you and your wedding party. You can also host your outdoor ceremony in their Stoddard Garden Courtyard, which offers a mosaic backdrop, sculptures and greenery.
Mechanics Hall
The acoustic character of Mechanics Hall sets it apart from any other venue in the city (and frankly, the world). Along with the organ, the Great Hall is also home to two Hamburg Steinway concert pianos. This venue’s distinct architecture even landed it on the National Register of Historic Places. You can even take your engagement photos in this pre-Civil War performance space. Private rooms for prepping or entertaining children are aplenty. Brides and grooms are free to select their own vendors, including the caterer.
The Hanover Theatre
The Hanover Theatre offers a variety of guest experiences for your wedding day. Two brand new unique event spaces make for easy access to the theater’s upper lobby and can accommodate up to 250 people. The historic lobby itself boasts glittering chandeliers, antique mirrors, and a granite crafted bar for up to 150. From the promenade, attendees will look down on the historic space below from a perch reminiscent of the 1920s with enough room for a seated function of 200.
Public Spaces
If you’re keeping it short and sweet, consider hosting your nuptials in the heart of Worcester, at Worcester City Hall. The beauty here is in the eye of the beholder, so we recommend you bring a photographer with an eye for architectural detail to truly take advantage of this often-overlooked space. Get gorgeous shots on the grand staircase, interior courtyard and outside on the Worcester Common. More details on City Hall elopements can be found here.
Another beautiful public space is the Old Stone Church, located in West Boylston, Mass. Situated on the banks of the Wachusett Reservoir, the church is the last vestige of a town that was flooded to create the reservoir. The church is a photographer favorite, offering rustic, historic charm and gorgeous scenery, especially in the fall or around sunset.
Couples seeking artful environments should consider the fantastic mural scene in Downtown Worcester for their after-ceremony photoshoots. You'll find the Insane 51 mural and a fun smiley balloon mural located right by ArtsWorcester, conveniently an equally artful reception venue option steps away from the public art.
Historic Atmospheres
