Unique Wedding Venues in The Berkshires & Western Massachusetts (MA)

The grand, historic Red Lion Inn is a picturesque location for any wedding, but there are particular venues that strike a chord with those seeking something unique for their ceremony or reception. The inn, for example, has a turn-of-the-20th-century firehouse featured in a Norman Rockwell painting. The firehouse has a grand dining hall with a farmhouse table and a full kitchen, ideal for a small gathering. Or, there’s the Meadowlark guest house on the grounds of Chesterwood, the historic summer studio of sculptor Daniel Chester French. The inn itself has lovely antique-filled rooms and a flower-filled patio for wedding couples to consider. Whatever you choose, the culinary and event staff will ensure your day is true to your vision.

Here’s an idea for a one-of-a-kind wedding: exchanging your vows on top of a mountain, surrounded by guests and sweeping views of the valley below. The experienced wedding planners at Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort can make that happen. But they can also help with a quieter, more intimate ceremony under the trees by a brook or in a cozy lodge room by a roaring fire. Reception locations include a lodge with mountain views from a stone patio with a fire pit, for up to 350 guests; a lodge with a huge stone fireplace and large stone patio; and two rooms in the Country Inn with mountainside views. Full catering services ensure your food will be as memorable as those views.

If you want that special wedding that everyone will be talking about for years, the Porches Inn, across from Mass MoCA, has the unique venues for you. Outside, for ceremonies and small gatherings, there’s a Wedding Glen and a "clubhouse"-style gazebo, perfect for that party in the woods. Inside, Studio 9’s light-filled space includes a grand piano and catering kitchen, Building 7 features 20-foot ceilings and lots of contemporary art, the Board Room has old-fashioned blackboard walls, and the Breakfast Room is filled with natural light. The inn works with local event planners and caterers to ensure a worry-free day. Guests will love the artsy, whimsical atmosphere of the inn, with its connected row houses and long, welcoming veranda.
