The Commons 1854
Exceeded Every Expectation
Our November wedding at The Commons 1854 exceeded every expectation that we had, which says a lot because we had high expectations going into it.
The venue itself was just amazing. The Commons 1854 seems to be crafted for romantic, fall weddings, and it fulfilled all of our wishes this November. The staff working our wedding expertly flipped the ballroom (from ceremony to reception), attended to our guests during cocktail hour, and served a wonderful dinner. The food was top-notch, something that many guests commented on both during and after our wedding. From the appetizers to the main plates to the cookies as we walked out the door, everything was delicious. For such a special day, The Commons is a wonderful place to have your wedding, especially if you’re looking for people who will take care of your every request!
Johanna was our wedding coordinator, and I cannot say enough about her professionalism and aptitude throughout the whole process. She was always prompt to respond to questions that I had leading up to the wedding, and she carefully attended to every detail so that the actual wedding day would go off without a hitch. That was all before the wedding. On the actual day, she was phenomenal. My bridal party commented on multiple occasions about how awesome she was in dealing with everyone prior to the ceremony. There was a transportation snafu getting the guests to and from the hotel, and she quietly and competently dealt with it, so that neither myself or my bridal party had to worry about it. She constantly had her eye out to make sure everything was running smoothly, and because of her, it did! What an absolute pleasure to work with her.
I actually cannot think of anything bad or even constructive to say about our experience at The Commons 1854. I wouldn’t call it a budget venue, but it’s worth every penny. One awesome part is that you are responsible for providing the liquor which, in the long run, saved us a lot of money (compared to venues that charge you for per-person open bar). We were very satisfied and comfortable knowing that the staff at The Commons 1854 and our wonderful coordinator had everything under control, and ultimately, that allowed us to truly sit back and enjoy our beautiful day!

The Commons 1854 provided the PERFECT venue for our wedding! We could not have asked for a more perfect spot than this beautiful historic New England Meeting House! Not only was the venue beautiful, but the service was outstanding through the entire process. We never had to think, 2nd guess, or worry about any minute leading up to our special day and during the day itself! Johanna, Kristi, and Frank know how to put on the perfect wedding and meet your every need. We had a fantastic time and knew from the moment we walked into the building that this was the right place for us! Thank you for everything Johanna, Kristi, and Frank!
