Go ahead, think outside of the box. There’s likely something here that can work just as you imagine it. Hot tip: the coolest places book up fast, so snag that date early!

Tie the Knot Surrounded by Natural Beauty

As you think about your Berkshire wedding, consider incorporating elements of the stunning natural landscape around you. Venues such as Woodlife Farm Market, Jiminy Peak or Bousquet offer sweeping mountain views. And guess what? Any gorgeous outdoor space can be totally transformed into a unique party haven with the event wizards at Classical Tents. For fresh Berkshire-grown bouquets and natural décor elements, consider Pryjma Petals. You can even add your personal touch to the floral or site design with their DIY flower bars.

Add a Taste of the Berkshires to the Menu

It’s no secret the Berkshires has a fabulous food scene. Why not enjoy a bit of local flavor on your wedding day? Berkshire caterers like Kelly’s Catering offer delicious menu options crafted with farm-fresh ingredients, plus bar menus featuring local craft breweries, wineries, and distilleries. Have a favorite restaurant or chef? Ask about offering a tasting menu instead of a traditional sit-down meal. Chocolate Springs is an excellent source for wedding cakes, decadent individual-size desserts or chocolate party favors that you guests will not soon forget.
