Wedding Receptions

Concord's Colonial Inn is one of Massachusetts' premier wedding reception sites. Wedding receptions at the Inn can feature cocktails with passed hors d'oeuvres in one of our elegantly appointed rooms or a four-course candlelit dinner with a DJ or band. For mid-sized weddings of 30 to 50 people, you may wish to add a single instrument for background music.

We can create a larger, more traditional wedding reception for 50 to 100 guests. Plan your wedding reception to include a formal wedding reception line, a cocktail reception with white-glove service, a five-course sit down dinner featuring choice entrees, followed by the first dance, cutting of the wedding cake, and throwing of the wedding bouquet.

For the grandest of weddings, ask about our Grand Concordian wedding package. You may also reserve overnight rooms for your wedding party and family, or take over the entire Inn for all of your wedding guests. Please consider the Colonial Inn for your wedding ceremony, bridal shower, and rehearsal dinner. Whether small or large, modest or grand, our wedding planner will work with you to create the perfect custom arrangements to suit your budget and your dreams.

"All weddings are a big event with us!"
