Fantastic venue if you're looking for a city vibe! Great food, great drinks, great service. The managers overseeing our ceremony and reception were wonderful and helpful! Everyone of our guests commented on how exceptional our wedding was thanks in part to the team at the Glass House! Very LGBTQ friendly!!!

The Glass House provided a venue that was modern, versatile, and fun for our wedding this past weekend. The staff is extremely professional. Everyone that helped us was friendly, supportive, and helpful — from Jen, Shauna, and Maggie to the support staff on the night of the event . We had clear communication and responsiveness was above and beyond throughout the entire planning process. Major props to the Glass House for helping us host such a wonderful wedding in the pandemic era with a focus on safety. The space itself is wonderful. We had our ceremony outdoors with their beautiful greenery around. The restaurant was able to open to the outside throughout the evening for access to the outdoor bar and tables, games, and fire pit. The inside of the restaurant is spacious, comfortable, and beautiful — it’s no wonder the Glass House won an architectural award after opening! The food was fresh, delicious, and memorable — from lobster rolls, to oysters, to bacon wrapped scallops, mac n cheese bar, prime rib — our guests (especially those from outside of New England) were very happy. The bar service was phenomenal. Even setting up beforehand and taking home decorations after was convenient. 10/10 experience, would highly recommend for a wedding venue or any other type of event. The Glass House also hosts showers, dinners, parties, etc. My husband and I will be back for dinner soon!

Our wedding experience with Glass House was amazing! We reached out to Glass House in order to hold a small ceremony and dinner, and Glass House made our wedding feel both intimate and luxurious. We used their private dining room for our ceremony and seated three-course dinner, and their bar dining area to host our guests for a mini-reception in between. Among the things we loved about the physical space were the lighting and décor, which led to great photo opportunities both inside and outside.All of our guests complimented the food, atmosphere, and service. The on-site staff was not only professional, but also friendly with our guests. Jennifer and her team were so helpful and responsive throughout the planning process, from discussing the menu (our party had various dietary restrictions to manage) to working out arrangements under the unique Covid-19 circumstances.
