    Beautiful venue!

    We got married in the Charolais Room at The Grand. This place is magical. We could not be happier with it as our wedding venue. It was beautiful. The hotel is gorgeous, our suite was incredible and the perfect place to get ready. The food was delicious and plenty of it. The staff are INCREDIBLE. Our coordinator, Olivia, is the best. She is kind, responsive, and helpful. She heard all of our asks and made them come to life. She has an amazing eye for decor and added lovely touches. She’s incredibly organized and we did not have to worry about a single thing with her as our coordinator. Gillian, our bridal attendant, was awesome. She always made sure we had everything we needed. She took care of us and we were never thirsty or hungry all night. Nicole was our day of coordinator, and met all of our needs. She was super helpful with managing in-the-moment tasks and taking care of us. It was truly the best day of our life and the venue/staff helped make the day even more special. Highly recommend this venue!

    The best decision ever!

    BVI was the best decision we had made for our wedding. They were fantastic. Every detail was thought of on BVI's side. They were fantastic to our family. Our family and friends said it was some of the best food they had and the best hotel stay for a wedding they have had. The food was delicious including the appetizers. The coordinator, Madison, is the BEST to work with. She really guides you and helps you. I couldn't have done it without her. The two day of coordinators, Paige & Nicole, were also amazing. We also had rehearsal dinner in the Overlook room. They did a fantastic job. Food was great!! I could write a book on how awesome BVI and their employees are. Don't hesitate to book here! You

    Overall great place

    Had our wedding here on a Monday. The venue was amazing and staff great. Everyone was very friendly and assisted when needed. They made sure everything was setup for the ceremony and dinner. At the after dinner the wait staff was great. Both Ashley and Jacob were extremely outgoing and helpful. Jacob especially was friendly and was a pleasure to deal with. He acted more as a friend than just a server. Overall experience was great and will definitely recommend and return for dinners.

    The absolute best decision for our venue!

    Bedford Village Inn (BVI) exceeded all expectations for every element of our wedding, and this is not hyperbole. We thought the pricing would be out of reach for us and almost didn’t even get a quote, boy are we glad we did because for our small wedding, they actually had the BEST price of the dozens of venues we had reached out to in New England.

    We wanted a venue that could host the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, as well as provide overnight accommodations for our mostly out of town guests. Additional criteria were that the food had to be top notch, and we were looking for an easy, but elevated aesthetic. BVI met all of these requirements and then some.

    Since our total guest count was less than 40, we were in the Charlois Room at the Grand and it was the PERFECT size for our small wedding. It never felt awkwardly too big, nor cramped, and we got to have the traditional wedding experience we were looking for with a full reception and cocktail hour.

    As if all of the above weren’t enough, what really makes the BVI experience outstanding is the incredibly amazing, kind, attentive, and welcoming staff. When we met with our coordinator we knew we were in good hands, and that was just the tip of the iceberg. The entire planning experience was so special and easy with everyone we worked with. A special shout out to Madison M. for being so supportive, responsive, and sweet! Madison was an absolute pleasure to work with! Many of our guests commented on how impressed they were with both the service and the food. One waitress was dancing with the kids in attendance at the wedding, keeping them entertained and giving their parents a break.

    BVI will now always hold a special place in our hearts, they made our wedding dreams come true! It was a perfect day at the perfect venue and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.

    I couldn't imagine my wedding anywhere else

    I don't think I could accurately put how much I loved working with BVI into words. The entire team was just incredible, always on top of everything, and made sure the day was absolutely perfect. Madison was our coordinator and she is easily one of the best in the business. She was so responsive whenever I had a question during the planning stages and wasn't afraid to be honest, which I highly appreciated. I also worked with Allyson on the lodging side for booking the rooms and anything hotel related. Again, incredibly responsive and helpful during the planning stages. Her and her team were there whenever someone needed help for their reservation and it made the entire process so easy. Every single team member at BVi made the wedding the best wedding it could possible be. The food is absolutely delicious. The venue is beautiful. You can rent decor. And the day of the wedding there were so many little touches that BVI did to make it feel as special and personalized as possible. I cannot recommend BVI more and this place will always hold such an incredible spot in my heart. Thank you thank you thank you

    Our wedding was absolutely perfect!

    Molly Brennan—what an incredible wedding coordinator and all-around amazing person. We exchanged tons of emails back and forth in the year and a half that we planned our wedding at Bedford Village Inn. Every detail no matter how minuscule, every question that I could think of that would keep me up at night, she had a quick and thorough answer to. She was there when we first toured the venue, she was there throughout all of the planning, and she was there the whole weekend to help set up our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and post-wedding breakfast. She made our wedding absolutely perfect!

    Bedford Village Inn checked all of the boxes for us. An all-inclusive venue was a requirement for us, and Bedford Village Inn has it all: beautiful and comfortable hotel rooms for guests to stay on site, delicious food (one of our guests said it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had), and they were able to accommodate ALL of our wedding events on site. On the day of, our Event Manager and Bridal Attendants handled the flow of events, communicated with all of our vendors, and made sure that me and the groom, our parents, and our wedding party were well fed and provided for with refreshments.

    Bedford Village Inn also offers decorations that you can rent, like drapes, candles, and table numbers. We didn’t need to bring anything to the venue besides our wedding outfits and guestbook. This venue truly took the stress out of wedding planning. We were so taken care of and Molly made us feel like our wedding was the most important event in the world. When I was flustered before the ceremony, I handed her the rest of our tip envelopes and she made sure to distribute them to our vendors. Right before the ceremony on a scorching summer day, Molly used her own shirt to dab my sweaty face before I walked down the aisle. I cannot say enough positive things about Molly and Bedford Village Inn; we look forward to returning for our anniversaries!

    Olivia S. and the Bedford Village Inn team are incredible!

    We had the most amazing wedding experience because of Olivia S. and the Bedford Village Inn team. We chose BVI as the venue for our March wedding and it couldn't have been more magical. Olivia thought of every detail and was an absolute angel to work with. Gillian and the team members who were present during the reception anticipated our every need and were so thoughtful. The entire weekend was incredible and we wouldn't change a thing. I highlight recommend choosing BVI as your wedding venue!

    Gorgeous venue, amazing food

    The Bedford Village Inn was even better than I could have imagined in so many ways. I can't say enough how gorgeous this venue was for our January wedding, or how much we loved our planner, Molly. Months later and people are still talking about what a beautiful venue it was and how delicious all the food was. Molly was super responsive and made us feel so taken care of. She had brilliant suggestions from the bakery we ended up using for our cake (honestly, the best cake I have ever had) and the string trio we hired for our on-site ceremony, to the more intricate details like our day of timeline and arranging our first look. Molly even helped fluff my train before I walked down the aisle, along with the other wonderful attendants they made available to me that day. Everything went so smoothly and I didn’t need to worry about a thing. We also had our rehearsal dinner on-site at Cork's Wine Bar and the wedding party was all able to stay on-site, taking away any potential travel stress for the actual wedding. Our pictures in the Milk Room honestly look like a beautiful watercolor painting, as if it all were a dream. I can’t recommend Bedford Village Inn, and Molly, enough.

    Highly Recommend, the BVI!

    We decided to have our reception at the Bedford Village Inn after touring the beautiful space and meeting the wedding planner, Madison about a year in advance. The wedding was magical and I know how big of a role Madison played with coordinating our vendors (day of) and throughout the process. Not only did we have a great experience with the wedding planning team, but every single member of the staff went above and beyond. We still have family and friends saying how polite and helpful the waitstaff, group bookings, and extended BVI team were. Our day-of attendant, Tyesha, was also a rockstar at her job. The Bedford Village Inn has a team of true professionals that are really good at what they do. Beautiful space, great team, and tasty food had our guests and us very happy with our decision to choose the BVI for our November 2022 wedding.

    Everything we dreamed of and more

    Having our wedding at BVI was everything my husband and I dreamed of and more! Planning a wedding can be stressful, but Olivia made the entire process so enjoyable. She was always so prompt and responsive to any questions we had, and her attention to detail and kind, calming demeanor made her an absolute pleasure to work with. Brittany and all of the day-of wedding attendants were also so fantastic. The amount of people who have told us "this is the nicest wedding we have ever been to" speaks volumes for the level of professionalism and amazing service BVI offers. Thank you to all at BVI who helped make our dream day a reality, we cannot thank you enough!

    Wonderful, elegant, affordable venue!

    We used the Bedford Village Inn for a special surprise birthday party for my wife. Working with Madison couldn't have been better. She was so helpful in planning the menu, organizing the staff, and was in constant communication. The food was delicious, the staff extremely proficient, and the price was remarkably affordable. Thank you Madison and everyone at the Bedford Village Inn!

    Bridal Shower location

    We hosted my Bridal Shower here in the “Overlook Room” in August 2021. We were so incredibly happy with the entire experience from start to finish. The event coordinator, Olivia, was extremely valuable and made the planning process very easy! BVI staff member Jennifer was also extremely helpful on the day of, making sure everything ran smoothly. We hosted a brunch for our guests, and the breakfast buffet was incredible! We even added an omelet station on, and our guests loved it! The wait and bar staff were very attentive, and the cupcakes that we had for dessert were out of this world! It was the perfect space for our number of guests, and the general atmosphere is so perfect the space hardly needed any extra decorations! We would highly recommend BVI for any event! We considered BVI for our wedding venue but they were already booked!

    Stunning wedding venue

    We got married at the Bedford Village Inn this past fall, and it was an absolute dream! Melissa and the entire staff were extremely professional and accommodating, and helped us with everything we asked for, from vendor recommendations, to helping us coordinate last-minute guest shuttles.
    The venue is absolutely beautiful, but the reason we chose this venue over all the others we visited was the food! The food for our wedding was really delicious. Overall, we had a great experience and can't recommend them highly enough.

    Best Day Ever !!

    The BVI team was absolutely amazing to work with. Any questions I had did not go unanswered. I had to reschedule my wedding due to Covid and they were so flexible with me and so accommodating. Melissa and her team were so easy to work with and made sure I had the best day ever. There was nothing I would have changed that day everything was perfect. Her team made it happen it was so seamless.

    Amazing wedding & rehearsal dinner!

    My husband and I could not be happier with the Bedford Village Inn. We had both our rehearsal dinner and wedding at the BVI and were so impressed. Getting married during a pandemic came with a whole set of challenges, and the BVI was there every step of the way to help create my dream wedding in the safest way possible. We cannot say enough wonderful things about how beautiful the space was and how delicious all of the food and drinks were. Guests commented on what an amazing and perfect wedding day it was, and we could not agree more! Our wedding coordinator, Brianna, was instrumental in our planning process. She worked with us and helped us take our 155 person wedding to less than 40 without compromising anything! She was kind, knowledgeable, patient, and SO incredibly helpful. Working with her made a stressful experience so much easier. Thank you Brianna, and BVI, for your part in making our day so special! We cannot wait to come back to celebrate our anniversary for years to come!

    Perfect Venue!

    With Coronavirus forcing us to change our wedding date, we also had to change venues and I am so glad we did! The Bedford Village Inn was perfect in every way. From the initial planning meeting through the night of the wedding, they made everything so easy! Brianna, our coordinator, was extremely helpful and everything came together just as we had envisioned. The whole staff the night of the wedding was amazing and I received so many compliments on both the venue and the people who worked so hard throughout the night to make it perfect for us and our guests. If you are looking for a beautiful location and seemless planning process I highly recommend the Bedford Village Inn!

    Perfection

    We found this venue when we had to change ours due to covid. It was the best covid related issue we could have had because everything was AMAZING! From the day we met Olivia (the wedding planner) to the minute we left after our big weekend, everything was beautiful, perfect and delicious. I can't say enough about the BVI! Check it out, you won't be disappointed!

    Book this venue!

    The Bedford Village Inn made my wedding day better than I could have imagined! From the second I walked into the venue on the first tour I knew this was the place I wanted to get married!! The staff was so great and easy to work with throughout the whole planning process. And the day of the wedding was run so smoothly and without any issues. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day and the BVI made that possible!

    The most beautiful wedding

    I can’t say enough about the Bedford Village Inn. We worked with Melissa who made the entire process so easy. She helped with the planning and helped work out the little details that you wouldn’t normally think of. We had a rainy day and the team was very accommodating to give me as much time as possible to make a decision for inside or outside. The food was delicious and got a bunch of compliments. Not to mention the environment is just gorgeous and speaks for itself. Overall it was a great experience working with BVI and it’s staff.
