Look no further than Race Brook Lodge in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts. Winthrop and Ashley found their dream wedding at Race Brook Lodge, and you can too.
A Magical and Unforgettable Experience at Race Brook Lodge
With a desire for something special and out of the ordinary, Winthrop and Ashley chose Halloween for their wedding day and a vintage theme that allowed their 150 guests to have fun and dress up while keeping the atmosphere formal. To keep the wedding green, they opted for mostly local vendors, including Race Brook Lodge, which they rented for the entire weekend to ensure that everyone could relax and have fun.
The weekend started with small eats and a pumpkin carving party on Friday night, with pumpkins grown by their neighbors. The couple was surprised with over 2 feet of snow on their wedding day, creating a stunning backdrop for their vows and photos that will last a lifetime.
The party continued with a photo booth downstairs complete with props and a DJ upstairs that kept everyone dancing. The couple’s unique guest book was a hand-drawn tree where guests “leafed” their fingerprints, creating a personalized piece of art for the couple’s wall.
Dinner was an amazing display of local, in-season vegetables and beef roasted on an open fire, with antique-colored flowers and hanging trees adding to the ambiance. Guests sipped on locally-made alcohol while talented caterers served food from their steaming cauldrons. The night finished with toasts around a bubbling chocolate fountain and miniature cupcakes.
Thanks to an all-star cast of vendors, the couple’s wedding night was a huge success, painting the perfect picture of their personalities. Despite a storm, the electricity stayed on until the last song finished, and the night ended speak-easy style by candlelight with a friend quietly playing the piano.
Make your dream wedding a reality at Race Brook Lodge, where your unique personalities and unforgettable experience come together.
