The Perfect Venue

Ledger was the perfect venue for our wedding, and the whole experience was fantastic. Ashleigh was so easy to work with, and helped cover every detail we hadn't thought of. Our guests could not stop raving about the space, the food, and the service! I really appreciated all the small touches- Ashleigh and her team welcomed our guests with hot cider as the day ended up being rainy and cold, and I was so touched by this extra detail we hadn't even thought of. We also really appreciated that after the ceremony the team surprised us with donuts, champagne, and some appetizers to enjoy before joining the reception. The bar and wait staff were amazing- you always hear that the couple never get a chance to eat during their wedding, but we were never empty handed if we needed anything- they anticipated our needs from the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left. I also really appreciated how Ledger worked with all of our vendors- I did not spend a minute of my wedding worrying about any details, because it was so clear they had everything covered. I truly cannot recommend Ledger enough!

Absolutely amazing!

Ledger was an absolute dream to work with! Ashleigh was incredibly responsive and super helpful from beginning to end! She was even helping my mom and aunts decorate the reception area right up until we arrived! We forgot real flowers for our wedding cake and she had some on stand by just in case! She worked with us when we experienced a date change while first planning and even followed up after the wedding to ensure we loved everything. Guests said the Macomber room made it feel like an exclusive event and we got tons of comments on the decor! The food was to die for and the atmosphere was so beautiful and romantic! If you’re thinking of Ledger, go for it! They are incredible!

Amazing Venue. Amazing Food. Perfect Location.

Ledger is such a unique and special place for any event. I had the honor of being the DJ for a wedding there recently and was beyond impressed with the ambiance, floor layout, and knowledgeable staff. They had tremendous communication leading up to and during event. They truly are team players and wonderful to work with. The food (fried chicken thighs, sliced steak, mushroom campanelle) was phenomenal. I can’t wait to eat there again. I highly recommend Ledger in Salem, MA.
