We had our wedding on 11/11 and the weather wasn't looking great, but like everything else with Danversport the change of moving the wedding from outside to inside was as easy as making a phonecall or writing an email.They made everything go so smoothly and every person has told us it was one of the best run wedding they have been to in years.Fantastic venue and everyone that works there is so nice and helpful.

We absolutely loved having our wedding reception at the Danversport! The coordinating team is wonderful to work with and Ron who was our event coordinator for the night, did a wonderful job. The food was amazing and several of our guests raved about how great everything tasted. The wait staff was fantastic and took amazing care of our guests and our bridal party. Our cake was beautiful and tasted great! We were blessed with rain on our wedding day and Ron and his team did an amazing job with making adjustments to our cocktail hour and bridal party photos. They were very accommodating given the circumstances we were dealt with and made it stress free. We highly recommending booking with Danversport, the venue and outdoor areas are fantastic and they make your wedding day one to remember. Reviewed on 21-09-2023

We could not have asked for a more perfect summer wedding venue in the Boston area for our July 1st wedding. This is truly a Northshore staple with incredible views and a hardworking team. Touring and booking with Danversport was so easy and we were fortunate to work with Ron during our tour and on our wedding day. He has been there for over 30 years & was truly a professional that evening. There are no hidden fees or extra gratuity expected at the end of the evening which made the decision that much easier. Communication via email was a bit tricky as they have a larger team with a different person answering almost each time so we felt that we had to double check that some requests were documented when confirmed as there is no portal to view your plan/ contract with them. We did not get a reception timeline when we thought we would so it delayed our timeline planning a bit. However, the Danversport team is so accommodating, kind, and their food is the best! The ballroom is so elegant, spacious, and has such a great view. The deck is larger than it looks so it is the perfect cocktail hour space. Their bartenders make great drinks and everyone was talking about how good the food was! Genuinely very happy with our experience there. Reviewed on 19-09-2023

My wife and I had our small wedding here on June 3, 2023. The staff did a great job at communicating all the different options for the ceremony and reception and was always responsive to questions in the months leading up to the big day. We had a bit of light rain for the ceremony, but Danversport was prepared with an alternate ceremony location and a tent to keep us dry. The food was excellent and our room in the Lighthouse Point had plenty of space for everyone to eat and dance comfortably. Reviewed on 09-09-2023

We had the most wonderful planning experience at Danversport. Everything was simple and straight forward and they thought of everything. Our wedding day itself was perfect. We did not have to worry about a thing. I would absolutely recommend this wedding venue. Reviewed on 05-09-2023
Danversport from start to finish, was exceptional. They were always quick to answer our questions, and the fact that they had so many big items already included in the wedding packages (cake, linens, napkins, etc.) made planning that much easier. Overall, just very great people to work with. We had some hiccups the day of with other vendors and they really went above and beyond to help us and ease some of the stress. Truly cannot thank them enough and highly recommend to anyone looking for a venue that pretty much does it all! Reviewed on 13-08-2023

Wow, and incredible venue from start to finish. My husband and I decided to host our rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony & reception at the Danversport and it was better than our wildest dreams. The staff that were working the events and the staff behind the scenes were phenomenal. We received so many compliments on the service, the food, and the beauty that the Danversport holds. An incredible venue that is family owned and operated going now into the third generation. The Danversport will make you feel like family. We wouldnât want our wedding to have been celebrated anywhere else. Thank you to the Danversport Family for the wonderful wedding of our dreams. It was euphoric. Reviewed on 26-06-2023
Madeline U(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-01-2023 Ron and his team at Danversport could not have made the wedding planning process more easy. The venue truly has everything you need including place cards, cake, and personalized cocktail napkins, and the staff is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. We got so many compliments on the food, staff, and the whole atmosphere of the night. The menus are so customizable and the annual food tasting was a great time. Danversport was the first of 10 venues we toured in the area, and we are so happy with our choice. Everything about our wedding day was beautiful and meaningful. Reviewed on 03-04-2023
Bridget Griffin(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-11-2022 It sounds cliche to wish we could give more than five stars but really we do. Everything, and everyone, at Danversport was world-class. They made everything so easy and took so much of the worry out of planning our big day, especially considering we live out of state. Lauren in the events planning group was incredible and Sean took care of us on our wedding day. She kept us at ease. And made sure we ate. Hahaha. The food was exquisite (get the short rib) and the cake from the bakery Danversport used was so good one of our friends is getting their cake from them for their wedding this coming year. Their upfront and all-inclusive price points made budgeting so easy. We got married in November and used the Lighthouse Point room and it was perfect for us. We had 60 guests and everyone fit perfectly with plenty of room for dancing. We had our ceremony at the pergola outside of the LP Room and it was a dream. It looked so beautiful and our guests were easily able to flow from the ceremony to the reception and then to dinner. We are so happy that we chose Danversport. They do one thing - weddings - and they do them perfectly. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!!! â€ïžđâ€ïž - Bridget and Kayleigh Reviewed on 12-02-2023
Cassidy Morgan(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-11-2022 The Danversport staff, from planning to execution, was absolutely top notch and best-of-the-best. I want to emphasize just how much our guests raved about the beauty of the venue, the quality of the food (especially the cake! OMG it is all we hear about đ), and the staff. It seriously felt like the staff was always two steps ahead of us in predicting what we needed. We never lifted a finger all night and I 100% trusted everything was completely under control, and that is truly invaluable when you have a million other things to worry about on your wedding day! I thought it was just because we were the bride and groom, but after speaking to our guests it was obvious that everyone in the room was treated as a VIP by the Danversport staff. They truly are some of the best in the business. Reviewed on 19-12-2022

The venue worked with us to assure all of our needs were met on our wedding day, even with some hiccups along the way with the timing of the event, as our ceremony off site went longer than expected.

Christopher Cleary(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-07-2022 Danversport were a tale of two venues. They were very difficult to deal with during Covid. They were not communicative at all and 6 months before our wedding day, still in the teeth of Covid, they hadn't even mentioned the tasting that was already supposed to have happened. We called and told them we needed to postpone for a year so everyone could be safe. We couldn't plan and pay vendors and with so much uncertainty. They said unless state laws prohibited the wedding ONE MONTH before, we'd lose our deposit. One month is not a reasonable amount of time to put together a wedding. We wanted to have the same wedding, WITH THEM, just one year later. They'd still get our check. But instead it ended up losing us thousands of dollars, which is hard for a first responder and a teacher, even though they still booked the room on the night we would have gotten married. We were not pleased.BUT as far as our actual wedding a year later, Danversport was a dream. They were communicative and personable. They answered any questions we had. They also are one of the most stress-free venues you can imagine. So many aspects of the day are included. The cake, flowers for the head table, and various other details are simply part of the package, making everything very simple. Every venue has pricy add-ons, but Danversport didn't sneak any past you. Everything was very transparent and you got a great reception just with the basic package. We booked their Lighthouse Room and, a month before when we went in to finalize details, they told us that since nobody had booked the other downstairs rooms on our wedding day, we could have access to the beautiful pergola to get married, the bridal room, and various other areas that are not normally part of the Lighthouse Room for no extra charge, and every corner of the venue was beautiful. Every couple at our wedding ended up sneaking around to take photos that are their new profile pictures because it was so picturesque. They also didn't blink when we needed to add on a water station for the service with just one day's notice, as it was going to be 96 degrees out and made things very easy.Ron was incredibly helpful, thorough, and detailed in the preparation meeting. Gianna and Christine were patient and helpful going over dietary restrictions over the phone and email. The whole team did a perfect job following instructions on centerpieces and the memory table, etc. But the best was Lauren, who ran point for us on the day of. She was everywhere all at once, making sure everyone was okay in the heat, keeping everything on time, making bar runs for the bridal party so we could actually enjoy the open bar, even helping get mulch out of the bride's train after photos. You couldn't ask for someone more professional to be overseeing the day.Basically, as long as there isn't another worldwide pandemic, book Danversport with confidence and know you're going to get everything you pay for.

Emily McGeney(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-06-2022 Truly if I could give this place âinfinity starsâ I would. First, the staff were INCREDIBLE. We had an open bar and the wait staff went to each table and got all of our guests their drinks so they wouldnât have to get up and wait at the bar! One of my guests had several food allergies and was unable to eat the dessert provided. One of the waiters was made aware and brought her out an assortment of allergen free desserts.

Jeanette Sanfilippo(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-09-2021 9~10~21 was our wedding, before our wedding Danversport was wonderful w/all the emails I sent & questions I had. They were mostly great the day of as well. HOWEVER my complaints are how things were handled after our wedding!! our stuff (we needed to take home) was put on a table supposedly altogether THAT WAS NOT THE CASE!! as w/most brides you dont notice certain things until DAYS later or until someone mentions something. I have submersible lights missing as well as the replacement batteries (which I'm sure you all know aren't cheap) acrylic rocks & floating candles. My dogs bag was left w/all his stuff in it,most of which I purchased for the wedding, his tux, collapsible bowls,treat pouch etc. Danversport is saying none of my stuff was there, they don't have it, & I keep hearing \"so & so tried to make sure everything was perfect for u\" I know for a fact it was left because NONE of my family/friends has any of my missing stuff, which to me means either their maintenance people took my stuff or someone else & I hate to accuse ppl but it's the only explanation! Now...all of the super important stuff I have, cake topper. champagne flutes, etc. but...ALL OF MY LEFTOVER STUFF SHOULD'VE BEEN RETURNED TO ME & that's not right! & I'm VERY upset about it. Also, by the very end of the night I nor my family could find NOT 1 employee ANYWHERE so even if I did notice, there was no one to ask!! another issue was we did the \"late night snacks\" it's cute to-go food in containers ppl can take home. I was told they'd be handed out...they WERE NOT, they were left on a table with the CONTAINERS OPEN!!!! w/a pandemic? are u kidding me??? but again no employee to say anything to! I guess there was no one guiding anyone into cocktail hour either because im missing many ppl from the Guest book & I was really excited about our \"advice box\" (right next to Guest book) I had 130 guests & theres maybe 15 pieces of advice. In conclusion. ..if your going to have your wedding here either dont have a whole lot you want back so you remember everything or dont trust that all your stuff is \"wherever they put it\" & ruin ur wedding night looking in every nook & cranny for ur stuff cuz u wont have help from anyone who works there, I suppose if ur wedding is in the early afternoon there may be employees but mine was over @11:30PM. I'm very disappointed the ONLY reason I didnt give 1 star is mostly they did a good job. With everything thats missing though I feel as if I were robbed on my wedding day. Reviewed on 10-10-2021

You can really tell the staff has been doing this for a long time and they truly care about their couples. All of our guests keep telling us this is the best food they've ever had at a wedding, and we know they're right!

Sonia Carestio Touchette(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-08-2021 Danversport = ROCKSTAR status!!We had our wedding at Danversport, Friday August 20, 2021. When we first started looking at venueâs in the North Shore area of Boston, we were somewhat disappointed until we visited Danversport! Immediately, we knew we found our venue. As a same sex couple, finding a diverse, all-inclusive group to work with was top on our list. In August 2020, we stopped by Danversport without an appointment; called before going in and Ron was very welcoming. He dropped what he was doing to meet with us and give us a tour, complete with a full packet of information to review. The very next day, we put a deposit on our wedding date for a Gazebo Ceremony and Lighthouse Point room for 54 guests. We were thrilled and could not wait to get the planning going!Throughout the entire process, we were pleased with each interaction. The taste-testing was phenomenal! There were samples of every item on the menu; including wine, and other bar beverages. The food is ridiculously delicious. When the day came for our rehearsal, we were slightly unprepared as we forgot an important folder of information at our hotel. Sean was assigned to be our wedding coordinator. Not only did Sean help to calm me down, she was patient, direct and supportive beyond our imagination. She knew exactly what we needed to prepare for the following day and managed our wedding party through that process with ease and professionalism. The day of our wedding, we were at peace knowing we had the best Event Coordinator at Danversport! Not one detail was missed; everything went off exactly as Sean planned with us during the rehearsal. At one point during the evening, our server, Mark was fanning our Officiant as she was sweating in the heat!! This screamed volumes to us that we were all being pampered to the nines! Our guests are still talking about our wedding and have shared many compliments. Of course nothing is perfect, right?! However, once again Sean ceased to amaze us. My ballgown started to fall apart due to poor seamstress work. After the bustle broke three times, Sean came to the rescue and hooked us upâŠLITERALLY! Through many laughs we made the best of it. It is without hesitation that we highly recommend Danversport for special events! The team at Danversport are all dedicated people who truly care. Ron was an absolute pleasure to work with. Even to this day when we visit for Party on the Patio, Ron and his team stop to say hello and welcome us. Genuine. Real. Humble. In closing comments, we will share that we were shocked that we could manage to fit Danversport into our budget. The all-inclusive package is what made our dream wedding possible and for that we are thankful to the moon and back. Thank you Sean, Mark, Ron, Nancy, Katelyn, Lauren, Heather and the entire team at Danversport!! Sonia and Lisa Touchette Reviewed on 29-09-2021

Chrislene Paillant(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-09-2021 Danversport is a beautiful venue... overlooking the water but that's about it. I had my wedding there and felt completely cheated out of the wedding planning experience. The staff only cares about money and they make it obvious with poor communication, treating you like a number vs collaborating with you to turn your vision into reality. On my wedding day, after the ceremony, the setting was a bit awkward as we walk down the aisle only to make a loop and stand behind all the guests as they leave the area (wish I knew that during the tour). During the reception, all the doors were left open (after I asked to keep them closed) and the waiters were so visible throughout the entire thing. I would not recommend this place. There are other places which I are just as beautiful and expensive, that will treat you better and provide better service. I would not have picked this venue knowing what I know now.

I know I told the entire staff how amazing they were all night, but I am still truly in awe of how seamlessly perfect our wedding was and it was 100% the result of Lauren Kane and her crew at Danversport who made sure every single detail was perfect. We initially toured the venue in 2019; at that time, we had seen almost every space in the area that could accommodate our guest size and they were all nice, but Danversport and the Harborview Ballroom took our breath away. The gazebo area was picture perfect for our ceremony, and my husband and I fell in love with the outdoor cocktail hour space. The wrap-around deck with the bars on each side (with both indoor and outdoor access) was something we had never seen anywhere else. We wanted to have the ocean nearby without trekking too far and this was the perfect spot. Beyond that, it was CRITICAL that we had a big dance floor because we knew it would be full and this room accommodated us perfectly. And when we met Lauren and the rest of the staff, it really sealed the deal. We are major foodies so the quality and creativity of our appetizers and entrees was really important to us, and this team went out of their way to meet our requests. We got SO many compliments on how tasty everything was! The team at Danversport is so professional, experienced, and committed to doing whatever they can to make your dream day a reality. Lauren, especially, was a freaking rockstar. Her calm demeanor, quick thinking, and just overall facilitation of the day was literal perfection. She was on top of EVERYTHING - from my last minute ceremony aesthetic changes, to staying in lockstep with my DJ and other vendors to maintain the whole flow of the night. Even through to BUSTLING MY FREAKING DRESS before the reception because none of us could do it! I had such peace of mind that day knowing that everything was taken care of and it made it so we could really enjoy the night. I could not imagine having our wedding anywhere else and am already itching for my next excuse to host an event here!! Reviewed on 27-07-2021
Alyssa Paradis(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-06-2021 The best decision we could have made for our wedding was choosing Danversport as our venue. Crazy enough, while we were touring other venues, we saw the sign leading to Danversport and decided to pop in since we had heard about it on âThe Knot.â The second we walked onto the property, we were in awe. When we stepped into the Harborview Ballroom I knew that this venue was it. The chandeliers and cathedral ceilings literally took my breath away. Donât forget about the sundeck and unreal waterfront view! We didnât have an appointment so we were trying to stay out of everyoneâs way just admiring the space, and Ron, the Director of Special Events introduced himself and literally guided us around as he prepared for another couple's wedding. He had us head over heels for the venue by the time we left. Of course, we finally set up an actual tour and saw both the ballroom and waterfront ceremony space and we knew it was meant to be. The staff was so beyond attentive and compassionate through the entire process.In our opinion, the venue speaks for itself and was absolutely everything we could have hoped for. Danversport made our dreams come true and all of our guests were truly in awe. We still have guests telling us it was the best wedding theyâve ever been to, from the atmosphere, to the service, and especially how AMAZING the food tasted. My family is still going crazy about the fillet!! Our wedding day was everything and more with the help of Danversport. One staff member who really stood out was \"Lynn,\" (the day was such a blur so I hope that's her name!!). She had me take a deep breath moments before I walked down the aisle, made sure we both ate, and assisted us with every little detail. She was such a sweetheart and a blessing to our big day!!Itâs truly a day we will never forget. Ron guided us through the day with ease and his experience really made the day a breeze. Obviously, weâve never done this before haha!Thank you especially to Ron Bildeau & staff for making this day happen even through the ups and downs of COVID!Love,The Johnsons 06.26.2021 Reviewed on 10-07-2021
Latasha Ao(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-06-2021 I just had my wedding here this past Sunday. Danversport and their staff made it EVERYTHING I dreamed it would be. The venue is gorgeous, the food was delicious, the wait staff was great. So was my coordinator, Nancy. I got compliments from guests that this was some of the best wedding food they've ever had. (As many know, sometimes food at weddings are very hit or miss) and there's 2 things people remember: the food and the reception music/vibe. Danversport hit everything out of the park. No issues were brought to my or my matron/best man's attention which says a lot. One thing I am particularly impressed and grateful for is their level of expertise and professionalism. Often the couple is running around so much with everyone vying for your attention. While it's awesome and fun it's alot. Often brides and grooms don't get to eat. Well Nancy and the Danversport staff made sure that was not the case for me. They made sure we got time to eat our food, & skillfully redirected people who tried to walk up to us when we sat down to eat without simply warding them off or offending anyone. They just pointed them to the photo booth or the bar or something else. It was impressive. Members of our wedding party told us we're the first bride and groom they've ever seen that are their whole entire and even got a slice of their cake. All I had to do was drop off my favors and describe what I wanted and they executed it to a T. I had no worries. And thoroughly enjoyed every second of my special day. This was amazing for a pandemic wedding that was postponed from last year. They handled 140+ guests wonderfully. For all this, there was a set price with no hidden fees, extra costs, no surprises whatsoever afterwards. I actually came in well under budget because of their straight forward pricing and explanations. Danversport Events, I can't thank you & your staff enough. You helped give me my dream wedding, even after I had to postpone it a whole year. So easy to work with. I can not recommend this venue enough for your wedding, baby shower, prom, whatever occasion. If you want a classy memorable event, Danversport Yacht Club is the place to do it. Reviewed on 01-07-2021
Elexis Maniscalco(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-10-2020 There are not enough words for us to describe just how amazing, thoughtful, helpful and great the staff at Danversport are. First, the venue itself is gorgeous! We got married at the Pergola outside by the Lighthouse. It was an amazing fall day and the flowers and greenery were perfect. Second, the food was delicious. All of our family and friends tell us just how perfect the seafood trio with filet was. From the appetizers, to drinks and entrees, it all tasted amazing! Most importantly, the staff made our wedding day one of the easiest, most magical days we ever had. It was so effortless! Me and my husband talk about it every single day. Ron and Heather were our two go-to's for our wedding. We changed the date of our wedding due to COVID restrictions in place. Ron and Heather were with us, so supportive, every step of the way. We are so grateful for the help, professionalism and true care from Danversport and their high end staff. It truly feels like a family and we look forward to booking future events!

Lisa Sall(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-09-2020 After Covid forced me to postpone my original wedding planned in Maine, we decided to keep our original date and do a small ceremony locally in MA. We have been to Danversport a few times to listen to live music and knew it was a beautiful venue. I reached out to them (pretty much in tears) and spoke with Tanya who could not have been more amazing. She immediately assured me they could accommodate my âmini weddingâ and would even let us use the gazebo for no charge for the ceremony and then have a dinner socially distant under a tent. She waived the Saturday night normal restrictions and gave us a very reasonable food and beverage minimum to hit. We had our wedding last night and it was incredible. Lauren was the day off coordinator and was waiting for us to arrive. She let me get dressed in the captains quarters room and helped coordinate the entire day and dinner. The food was delicious (prime rib and seafood trio) and they made sure all 12 guests were comfortable, socially distant and safe with covid concerns. Thank you so much Danversport for letting my husband and I keep our original date and have an amazing day despite covid!! Reviewed on 26-07-2020

All the staff were accommodating to make the planning smooth and stress free. The ballroom is huge lots of room to visit and dance. We also had the garden terrace which was just a classy touch and could not be more beautiful. We had blast at our wedding and wished the night didn't end so quickly.

Lindsey Valente(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-08-2019 There are one million great things I can say about working with the team at Danversport - and I mean the ENTIRE team, from coordinators to bartenders to servers, etc. Every single person was responsive, accommodating, helpful, and so positive throughout every interaction.We introduced our wedding planner/event stylist Pink Wasabi to the Danversport team, and my planner has been singing the team's praises from the beginning. She has literally raved about how accommodating they are, how helpful they were to her, how flexible they were, etc. This made me SO happy that the venue wasn't adding unnecessary headaches.We did the deluxe open bar, and they had no issues bringing in some specific drinks we wanted! And yes, they can in fact get White Claws in - you're welcome! Ron was great at our rehearsal and the day of. From the moment we got to the venue, everyone was amazing! The bridal suite service was incredible, we even had staff following us with ice water pitchers and cups while taking our pre-ceremony pictures. SO many of our guests made a point to tell us just how incredible the staff was - it made me so happy to know our guests were loving the team as much as we were. Once the ceremony was over and some additional pictures were being taken, apps and drinks were immediately served to us under the tent, absolutely no time was wasted! Anything we needed, they were there. Just about every single thing went perfectly! It's a wedding, something is sure to go wrong, but what matters is whether it can be handled and easily resolved. The only issue we had is that the special dietary meals were at first forgotten. As someone with dietary issues, I wouldn't let this hiccup stop me from working with Danversport, I would just be more vigilant the next time. Something just got lost in execution, but everyone was still safely fed and in a timely manner (i.e. no one was just sitting there waiting for food to be served long after everyone else was done eating). The great experience continued. We hosted a brunch the next day as well, and the team let us keep some of our centerpieces on site and then THEY moved them downstairs to the brunch space to decorate the room for us! This floored me and was such an incredible and thoughtful touch. Truly, every single person we encountered at all levels was awesome. I will sing the praises of the team at Danversport to anyone who will listen because the experience was tremendous. Nothing beats getting to work with a team that is this efficient, talented, and friendly to work with.Oh, and maybe one of the best parts? Paying for exactly what you were told you would pay for. There was zero added stress dealing with the invoice. When comparing venue costs, be SURE to take into consideration the fact that Danversport provides the linens, napkins, chiavari chairs, etc. all as part of the inclusive pricing. This is important because I've seen venues charge per chair, per napkin, etc! Make sure you're comparing apples to apples because for the size of our party and the number of things we added on we actually paid less than we had anticipated.Bottom line: I couldn't have dreamed up a better venue. It was stunningly beautiful, every member of the team is a dream to work with, everything ran smoothly, and it was quite literally the best day we ever had. I have SO MUCH gratitude for the Danversport team and cannot recommend them enough. If you are on the fence, work with them. You will not regret it. Reviewed on 22-08-2019

Our guests are still raving about the gorgeous views, incredible service and delicious food. I happen to have celiacs and they could not have been more accommodating with gluten free options and made it seem like it wasnât an inconvenience at all!

Laura Levesque(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-09-2018 We got married at Danversport two weeks ago in the Lightpoint room and my mother and mother in law both called today saying how much they loved our wedding. Every time I talk to them now, they mention some aspect of the wedding they liked. Sometimes they talk about how great the food was. Sometimes, they talk about how pretty the room looked, and sometimes they talk about how much fun everyone was having. I can say that It was Danversport's attention to details, responsiveness, and warmth that made the day come together the way it did. I can't recommend them enough. We had 60 guests in the Lightpoint room for an afternoon wedding and reception. We got married under the pergola, which was perfectly decorated. When the ceremony was over, the guests were ushered over to the outside tented area with tables, chairs and the adorable waterfall. While we were having pictures taken, they brought us appetizers and champagne. Nancy kept things running smoothly and on time and was just great to work with. Planning the wedding was easy. Danversport makes is so you really only have to get your own entertainment and photographer. And they have excellent relationships with many local vendors that they will recommend to you. Nancy sat down with us a couple of weeks before the wedding in order to get our seating chart and any finishing details complete. Walking out of that meeting made me feel confident I wasn't forgetting anything. I have so many great memories from that day.

I had been to a few events in the past, and Danversport was at the top of my venue list- outdoor ceremony space in a beautiful location, no surprise costs, option for stations versus plated meals, and everything at one site with plenty of parking. As the date grew closer, my father who was the florist had many questions and concerns, he was a little stressed out about there being an event until 2 in the room when our wedding started at 5 and he was going to do all the set up-and Michael, Lauren, and the rest of the staff were able to take care of everything for the set up, professionally and all were super friendly. My husband and I knew we had nothing to worry about from day one, the tasting was AMAZING, and our special day was magnificent- from the outdoor ceremony space at the pergola to the Garden Terrace room, everything was set up perfectly and it was so beautiful! The food during cocktail hour and reception was amazing and plentiful, and the open bar was definitely the way to go, (with sangria bar of course) and with the money we saved by choosing Danversport compared to other locations in the Boston/North Shore area, we were able to provide transportation to and from the hotel area so no one had to drink and drive, despite there being more than adequate parking at the venue.

Ron, Mike, Nancy, Derek, Katelyn, Lauren - were all amazing with helping me plan the wedding. They were always a quick phone call or an email away and they would get back to me super quickly. And Ron and Mike were amazing on my wedding day. Honestly, the day could not have gone any smoother. I got so many comments from guests during the wedding and now weeks later, that they were so nice, accommodating, and a few people said that they just felt like the team cared so much about the event and weren't just \"working another event\".2. The TEAM! Lynne was also with me on my wedding day - when we got up to the bridal suite before the ceremony, she came right up and asked what we needed or wanted. We asked if we could actually have the flower girl's kids meal before the ceremony since she was getting hungry - 5 minute later, she was back with her chicken fingers and fries. She made sure that I had everything I needed - and when my maid of honor ran into the bathroom to look for safety pins when my bustle came undone, Lynne noticed her panic and followed her in and asked what she needed and came back with safety pins for us.We literally are over the moon happy about how amazing our wedding was at Danversport.

Maria Faber(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-09-2016 When I started looking at venues I started to become discouraged, thinking maybe what I was looking for wasn't out there. Then, one day I stopped at Danversport. Immediately, I knew this is where I wanted to have my wedding reception! The views from the balcony and the be cautious ballroom chandelier were perfect!! From the beginning, the staff was very organized, professional and attentive to all questions and requests. As the day got closer, we were in close contact with the staff. They were extreamly flexible when guests started arriving early for the reception from the church, having appitizers and drinks ready early. Michael was our wedding coordinator for the evening and he was great! From helping with removing the wedding veil to making sure appitizers and drinks were available for us during pictures to checking in periodically with us and the parents, he did it all!! The night went very smoothly and people are still telling us how great the food was. I would definitely recommend Danversport!! Reviewed on 13-10-2016

Two years ago my husband and I went to Danverport yacht club, along with our parents, and fell in love with the gardens, views, the hall, and especially with our Wedding coordinator Ron Bilodeau that made us feel so welcome. He made it so easy for our wedding to come together as perfect as it did. He highly recommended us to go to the food tasting event, which we decided on the foods we were going to get on our wedding day! It was amazing, I highly recommend everyone to go to. It was the most helpful event to go to. My wedding was on September 17th 2016. When we got Danversort we were welcomed be the most wonderful team of workers that were not only helpful but made me feel so special! Ron was there for us from start to finish. We started out by taking pictures on the grounds with the most delicious hors d'oeuvre and drinks served to us by our own personal servers. After we were done Ron escorted us were we were ready to get introduced in a hall that looked absolutely amazing I could not imagine it being this way. It was the most amazing night! The food was to perfection! Not one thing I could say or anyone that shared our special day was wrong! Our family and friends are still talking about it. From the hot buns to the Statler chicken to the prime rib to the pasta to the salad to the amazing amazing sweet table with the chocolate fountain and cappuccino and coffee and cake were unbelievable. We would highly recommend Danversort yacht club and there staff to anyone that is planning a wedding. A big thank you to Ron for making our day so special ! Reviewed on 13-10-2016

Jennifer Baker(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-10-2015 If I could give ten stars, I would! From the start, the function managers helped us so much! We picked this venue after only two months in the surrounding area. The fact that they did almost everything for us is what sold us. The way they acted after we booked them is what made it the best. \r\rI could call at any point during my twelve months of planning and any one of the function managers could answer me questions. The whole staff is so helpful and knowledgable. They truly made my day about what I wanted. They worked with me on every aspect and made sure it was everything I dreamed of. \r\rThen, on our special day, when I didn't think they could do anymore... They did. They made sure that I had nothing to worry about. From set up, telling guests where to go, and ensuring we ate and stayed on schedule, they were outstanding.

Unbelievable! I had my wedding at the DYC in August 2015. The staff was absolutely incredible. I had so many moving pieces to my wedding and the staff knew every detail and made the day go flawlessly. From the first time I met the staff, I had good vibes. They have things down to a science (and are very knowledgeable on Jewish weddings). I was even able to work with the chef to change the menu and make it kosher. I received wonderful feedback from my guests about the food, service and beautiful venue. After much searching, I really believe I chose the best water venue in MA! The ballroom is breathtaking with gorgeous chandeliers and the water view is unbeatable. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this venue and staff, and you will certainly not be disappointed if you have your wedding here! Reviewed on 29-09-2015

Dan McComb(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-07-2015 This place is awesome. Highly recommend. Super classy. Ceremony and reception was here. Wedding for about 300 guests was easily accommodated. They cut us a deal (50% off) for the grand ballroom because we booked for a holiday (4th of July). Honestly, it was worth every penny...of my dad's money. Key words here: expensive, but worth it. These people are pros at weddings. For example, apparently my family couldn't find the sand that we needed for the reception card trays. The day of the wedding, I happened to mention how pretty the place cards and sand looked to Ron (wedding coordinator from the venue). He casually mentions that the chef provided bags of BROWN SUGAR to replicate sand, but I shouldn't worry because everything was going smoothly and I should enjoy my day. I was floored. I felt extremely taken care and didn't have to worry about a single thing! Reviewed on 29-07-2015

They do an awesome food tasting event where you get to try anything and everything with other couples also getting married there.\r\rAnd the location is to die for. Right on the water, we had cocktail hour outside on the patio which was so much fun.\r\rWe used the Courtyard Marriott about a mile away as our hotel and it all worked out very well.\r\rOur manager Ron, was also the best!\r\rAgain, loved everything and so happy we chose them!\r(Venue cost was between $23-24,000 but all together our wedding was probably closer to $30000) Reviewed on 22-07-2015

I had heard great reviews and everything online was nothing but great...They were all right! I think I had e-mailed them every day before the wedding with different questions-they were always quick to respond, very helpful and made great recommendations. During our tasting, we were a little worried-the food wasn't as great as we heard it would be, but don't let that fool you! The day of our wedding, the food was out of this world! So delicious, presented beautifully, and our guests cannot stop talking about it. The ceremony was beautiful, outside at the garden terrace pergola. The coordinator Kim was great, very helpful during our rehearsal even without our officiant there. The day of, she was right by our side instructing people where to go. Ron was also very helpful and made things run smoothly and on time. There was a point when my bustle broke and I couldn't bustle my dress, and one of the waitresses actually met me in the bridal suite and sewed me dress for me to bustle!

This was the only venue my husband and I looked at and from the moment we walked in, we knew this was where our wedding was going to be. Their entire team is very knowledgeable and quick to respond to questions. I myself am an event planner and wanted a venue that I did not have to be a planner on my wedding day, and Danversport far exceeded my expectations and had me completely at ease the entire process. Both our ceremony and reception were held at DYC - it looked like it may rain and Ron and his team had both outdoors and indoors set-up and did not make me feel rushed to make a decision. We wound up sticking with our plan to hold it outside, the rain held off and they even put heaters outside for guests since it was a bit chilly. The ballroom was breathtaking and every detail was covered. Our cake was missing the flower topper it was supposed to have and Ron fashioned together a topper using roses from some of our arrangements and it looked beautiful. The food and service was AMAZING - I am still hearing from guests how incredible the cocktail hour was (the food literally just kept on coming with no end) and how delicious the meal was. Ron and Derrick tended to our every need that night and were so accommodating. DYC really went above and beyond to make our wedding beautiful and special and I cannot thank them enough.

The coordinators there were all very pleasant and happy and have been in the business for many years. Ron & Nancy were such a pleasure to work with. Ron booked the wedding day with us and went over our final details with us, we adored him. Then Nancy became our wedding day coordinator. The rehearsal day we went over all of the details with Nancy and everything was put together perfectly the day of the wedding.
