I LOVED the Coonamessett inn. They are fantastic! Everyone that works there is so nice and relaxed. They are so helpful with the whole planning process. Brad and Jim and great to work with and definitely know what they are doing. I felt so comfortable with all of them that I didn't have any worries on my wedding day. They dedicated one waitress to my husband and I for our reception just to make sure that we ate drank and took care of any needs that we had. The food was wonderful, our guests raved about it! They set up all of out favors, escort cards, centerpieces, etc. exactly as I had envisioned it. Everyone had a great time at our wedding and the best part was that everyone stayed the night there and we got to enjoy brunch there the next morning (which is unbelievable). Thank you to all of the staff you guys were great and made our wedding perfect!

I absolutely loved the Coonamessett Inn! The staff there made wedding planning easy and on the day of, they were so attentive and professional, I was really blown away. We had an absolutely magical day and we've been told over and over by our guests that ours was one of the best weddings they have ever been to! I would highly recommend this location to any bride and groom!

Brad, Jim and the rest of the staff at the Coonamessett Inn are amazing! The food and drinks were fantastic. We were so happy with the professionalism and hospitality of the staff. This is an amazing place to have a party!

We are beyond pleased with the way our wedding day turned out!! Everyone at the Coonamessett was so easy to work with, and timely in all things regarding the wedding. A big thank you to to Brad, who somehow managed our unruly bridal party and family by getting us through the rehersal dinner. He was efficent and helpful the day of the wedding, and always around if we needed him. We had Joanna (waitress) who was specifically assigned to me and my husband on the day of. She was so helpful- from bringing us drinks, to bustling my dress, to giving me a quick pep talk before walking down the aisle. All of our family is from out of state, so this venue was perfect for us. They have 29 rooms there, and all of our family basically booked those rooms. It was less stressful and much more fun to have everything- ceremony, reception, and accomadations all in one place. I cannot begin to tell you how many of our guests complimented the venue- how beautiful it was, how good the food was, a... Read morend how helpful the staff was. I would highly, highly recommend!!!!

Wonderful service, fantastic venue!

The Coonamessett Inn was the perfect place for my wedding. They made everything so easy. Loved it!

f you are looking for a unique venue for your Cape Cod wedding, the Coonamessett is the place! Part of our heart lives in Cape Cod, so we knew when we decided to get married that we HAD to have it somewhere down the Cape. After looking at a dozen or so of the main Cape Cod wedding venues, we were starting to change our mind because of how impersonal all of them seemed for their very large price tags. The second we laid eyes on the gorgeous ballroom and beautiful natural landscape of the Coonamessett inn, which is nestled right on Jones Pond, we were in LOVE. While the decor is still very distinctly New England/Cape Cod, it is done with lots of character and elegance. One of the 2 other most important features of a venue to us, after it being located on Cape Cod was that it feature an indoor and outdoor space for guests to relax and enjoy themselves. We quickly learned that most venues with this feature were at least TWICE the price of venues that only featured one or the other. The Coo... Read morenamessett has a ballroom that fits 200 guests comfortably, a large dance floor, a huge wraparound porch for guests to lounge, as well as several outdoor gardens and patio areas, so that nobody in our large crowd felt crowded, without the added price tag. The second most important feature to us was that the food be excellent and there be a big variety of it for all of our guest's tastes and we did NOT want a sit down menu. We chose the gold reception menu at the Coonamessett and we are still hearing feedback from our guests that the food was the best they have EVER had at a wedding. Throughtout our whole perfect wedding, guests were able to mingle, sip drinks, nibble on passed horsd'orves and stop at the pasta station, the carving station, the stir fry station, the raw bar, and the garde magner station (a gorgeous artful display of cold bites) and later in the evening, the dessert table. Our other huge dilemma when searching for a wedding venue down the Cape was not only the huge price tag of the venues themselves, but also their inflexibility of how our special day would go and their insistence that we ONLY use their preferred vendors for the other details of the day (DJ, florist, photographer, etc). As a couple that was both on a tight budget, and that wanted to put an artistic personal stamp on every detail of the day, we knew these other places were not for us. At the Coonamessett, we did not have a problem with this at all. They let us take over the entire space the day of the wedding and the two wedding coordinators not only helped with, but embraced all of my DIY table runners, centerpieces, bouquets, favors and cupcakes. I was also able to bring in a non-traditional DJ, who spins at some of our favorite dance nights here in Boston and one of the huge highlights of the night- the Photobooth! The coordinators quietly on hand the entire day to make sure all of the elements that were so important to us ran smoothly and we also had a private waiter whose sole job the entire day was to make sure the bride and groom had a drink in our hand, food in our bellies and that we were able to break away from our guests enough to get all of the fun artistic photos done. Overall, our wedding was more than a dream come true and it couldn't have happened if it weren't for the Coonamessett Inn.

I can not say enough positive things about this venue. First and foremost, the function room is gorgeous - huge windows that overlook the lake on the property, with a hardwood stand-alone bar, and tables and chairs that are perfect and classy in their simplicity. Many of our guests stayed on the Coonamessett property, in the the cottages that ring the grounds - it was so much fun to feel we had a "family compound", and it was the perfect picturesque Cape Cod atmosphere. But more so than the asthetics of the place, it was the service that really set them apart. From our first meeting with Jim to the wedding day itself, we received first class treatment. We negotiated with them on the menu and price of their Gold Reception, settling on a cheaper price-per-head in exchange for losing some of the pricier menu items, but didn't lose an ounce of atmosphere or respect in the process (one of the risks you run when negotiating downward is a loss of service, but that was not at all the ... Read morecase with them!!). On the day itself, there was a staff person (Betsy) whose sole responsibility was keeping the two of us happy. The first class treatment started with drinks and hors d'oeuvres brought to us as we were taking pictures, and continued with plates made to our taste at the reception. The personal attention lasted the entire night, up to and including performing magic with safety pins when my bustle broke (needless to say, my seamstress will not be reviewed glowingly on here!). Clearly not in Betsy's job description, but when she saw that I was upset, she was back in barely two minutes to pin me up. Anytime we looked even the slightest bit perturbed, she reacted instantly. A second example: when my husband's chowder sat untouched (a product of nerves and overstimulation), Betsy first asked if everything was okay, then offered to refresh or remove the "offending" chowder (which, of course, everyone else had given rave reviews!). We felt incredibly well-supported throughout the entire evening. The food was delicious; we have received SO many compliments! The Gold Reception was very varied and provided tons of options, even the pickiest eater would be satisfied. As with everything else, no service touch was left undone - they even put out little "to go" boxes for our leftover cake! As a note to the cost-conscious: if you schedule your wedding before "the season" (i.e., before May), the room rental is FREE (a HUGE cost saving!). As I mentioned, they also worked with us on menu pricing (which, at $55 a head for the Gold Reception, was already VERY reasonable compared to the ridiculousness that's out there for wedding food). All in all, we feel we got an absolute steal, without any compromise on quality or value (seriously, we spent the week after the wedding asking how we managed to "get away with it"). We went with the Coonamessett initially because of their attractive packages, the "all in one" service they provided - planning a wedding from a distance, we didn't want to have to mess with chair rentals and all those kinds of nitty-grittys, we wanted to walk into the full package - and the "wow" factor of the function room. On the day itself, they completely overwhelmed our expectations, and I could not recommend them highly enough.

Everything at the Coonamessett was perfect for our reception. Brad was our planner and he was great! The room was very beautifully decorated for Christmas and the food was fantastic. We looked at many venues all over the Cape, this was very reasonably priced.

The Coonamessett was the perfect spot for a Cape Cod wedding. The views are unbelievable, the food great, the service spectacular, and the function directors handled everything with ease and professionalism. I did not have to worry about a thing! (Which is how it should be!) Everyone who stayed there fell in love! I highly recommend it!

We had a wonderful wedding and reception at the Coonamessett! We had heard such wonderful reviews from people who had either had weddings there or attendedweddings, so we knew we'd experience a great day. All of the coordinators- Jim, Brad, and Ruthann- were professional, affable, and very helpful. We had no worries that day because they had a lot of experience under their belt. The gazeebo was perfect for our short wedding, though there is some road noise. Make sure your officiant is miked; ours wasn't and some people in the back couldn't hear her. (She also didn't project enough.) The reception was set up exactly as we had talked about and the stations were wonderful and our guests ate their fill! Betty, one of the waitstaff, attended to our every need and made sure we ate and had food waiting on the table for us. She even helped my mom to bustle the dress! Everyone raved about the setting and every aspect of the reception. We stayed at the inn and the rooms had a lot of Cape Co... Read mored charm and character and many guests stayed right there with us to continue the celebration. The only thing I might change is to add another hour to our reception since the 5 hours of our ceremony and reception flew by! I hope to go back to enjoy someone else's wedding there!

If you are thinking of a Cape Cod wedding think no further than the quaint and charming Coonamessett Inn. Brad and Jim were our wedding planners and when I say they are the best - they are the best. When our JP didn't show, they swiftly sprang into action and we were married a short while later. They made everything flow smoothly and the food - AMAZING!!! You will not have anything to worry about havng your wedding here. The gazebo was the perfect spot over looking the pond for the ceremony and the banquet room with 360 degrees of panoramic views brings the outside in! I cannot say enough about our wonderful experience!

Absolutely wonderful. I couldn't speak more highly of this place. Our wedding went off without a hitch, everything was beautiful and delicious. Joanne was best! Friends and family are still raving about the wedding!

don't stress too much about all the little details.. the day of your wedding, none of that will matter. that special day goes by faster then you think. i highly suggest you get a video of you wedding. afterward everything is such a blur.. drinking or not.. there is just so much going on, time for the toast, time to eat, time to cut the cake, time for your dance, time to toss the bouquet.. it was so nice to see the video bc there was a lot that i missed at the wedding that they caught on tape. pick your wedding party carefully!!! wedding horror stories always begin with the wedding party messing things up.. try not to lose sleep over it, everything will be great!!! i promise!..
