Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a venue partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

Gina and her a team at the connemara house made our wedding such an unforgettable day. Through the whole process Gina and Lauren were so much help and made the process so much less stressful. I could not recommend a better venue and team. The grounds are beautiful and they made everything I hoped for come to life.

We had our wedding at Connemara on 9/20/24 and it was an absolute dream! The venue is gorgeous and everything my husband and I could have wanted. Gina and Emily were amazing to work with and kept everything running so smoothly, organized, and on time. Nine months later and I'm still reminiscing about how wonderful the day was, and what a great time we had. It really was the best day ever. All of our guests raved about the venue, it was just a perfect day. Thank you, Connemara!!

WHAT A HIDDEN GEM! When looking for wedding venues, I stumbled across Connemara in my search. It had everything we were looking for.

Gina & Emily, were such a pleasure to work with leading up to the wedding. Both so organized and efficient. On our wedding day, I could not have asked for a better team, whenever I needed something, Emily was right there. When we walked into the tent to get our first look, it was everything I could've dreamed of and more. While planning a wedding, sometimes it's hard to...

The Connemara House Farm is a fantastic venue to get married. The grounds and house are both gorgeous and the staff at Connemara are top notch. Gina and Lauren worked with us to make sure our wedding went seamlessly and were there throughout the entire wedding day to make sure everything was a success. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get married!

This apple orchard estate on the North Shore is a gem of a location for a rustic chic wedding! As a wedding photographer, it was easy to fall in love with the gorgeous grounds. The apple orchard at sunset was dreamy. The whole estate was well manicured and pristinely maintained! The wedding was smooth as can be and it was a pleasure to work there! @alirosaphoto
