From the moment we first inquired about hosting our wedding at Searles Castle, the team was responsive, attentive, and flexible in accommodating our needs. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a unique and well-appointed space that felt both spacious and intimate for our special day. Shawn and his team went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day went smoothly - they were super accommodating of our guests with mobility issues and I never found myself worrying as the bride, confident that the entire day would flow seamlessly. No request felt too big, and the team was very helpful when we needed direction on what to do. Having the day of coordinator included here is such a big benefit, and they rock at it. While booking we were reading all the five-star reviews for Searles, we knew we were choosing a great venue, but experiencing it firsthand was even better than we could have imagined. I've heard so many horror stories from other brides about their venues, but Searles was organized, attentive, and truly professional throughout the entire process. Not a single thing went wrong. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding day at this beautiful and unique space! Thank you!

We had the most incredible experience celebrating our wedding at Westbrook Inn in Derry, NH over 4th of July weekend. From the moment we first toured the property to the final sparkler send-off after our reception, everything was seamless, thoughtful, and truly special. One of the biggest highlights was that the bridal party stayed onsite at the inn. It made the entire weekend feel intimate and relaxed. The girls had a dedicated studio space for hair and makeup, which made getting ready together such a fun and stress-free experience. We also hosted our welcome party inside and out on the back deck. It was the perfect way to kick off the celebration and welcome our guests. Our ceremony under the beautiful tree in the yard was absolutely magical. Cocktail hour flowed effortlessly between the indoor space and the back deck, and our reception was held under a gorgeous tent adorned with greenery — it felt elegant yet warm and inviting. The weather over 4th of July weekend couldn’t have been more perfect. From every detail, whether it was creating our signature cocktails, setting up the dessert table, or making sure our desired décor and flowers were perfectly placed, they were incredible. They truly brought our vision to life and handled everything with care and precision. What truly sets Westbrook Inn apart, though, is that it’s family-owned and operated. Working with Jerry, Mark, and the whole family was nothing short of amazing. They genuinely care, not just about the logistics, but about you, your family, and your story. I had a few difficult guests, and they handled everything so I could remain completely stress-free and present on our wedding day. That level of personal investment is something you just don’t find everywhere. As someone who is a political and history buff, I also deeply appreciated the historic significance of the property. Westbrook Inn is one of the most historic sites in America, having been a gathering place since it was settled as Nutfield in 1719, which as a Granite Stater, made getting married there over Independence Day weekend feel even more meaningful. Every room at the inn is named after a different New Hampshire historical figure, which we felt was such a thoughtful and unique touch that made our stay even more special. Even months later, our guests are still talking about what an amazing time they had, how beautiful the setting was, how seamless the flow of events felt, and how welcoming the atmosphere was all weekend long. That says everything. Westbrook Inn gave us not just a beautiful venue, but an unforgettable experience rooted in history, family, and genuine care. We couldn’t recommend it more highly.
