“While we original picked Coastal Gourmet for their food, working with Jenna Landon completely transformed the planning process and execution - Jenna was really the secret sauce to design the perfect evening for us. From the very first phone call, Jenna understood what we were looking for, designing everything from the floor plan and linens to the bar style. Her no-nonsense, straightforward approach made decision-making effortless, and her ability to coordinate seamlessly with vendors—even handling the distribution of final tips—allowed for a stress-free day. Ultimately, Jenna’s expertise brought a clear vision to life and created an atmosphere that far exceeded all expectations. Atmosphere & Flow We wanted to create a warm, family-friendly, and informal celebration where guests could comfortably mingle rather than feeling confined to formal, assigned seating. The day began on a warm June afternoon with welcome drinks before our ceremony. Guests then moved to a beautiful tented area for a leisurely, hour-and-a-half cocktail hour featuring passed hors d'oeuvres, a raw bar, and charcuterie. To maintain an open, fluid feel, we had three dinner stations and a relaxed dessert spread instead of assigned seating. Food, Beverage & Customization Coastal Gourmet delivered exceptional food quality alongside unmatched menu flexibility. Jenna allowed full customization across menus, resulting in a standout lineup: crowd-pleasing passed apps like duck confit grilled cheese, alongside chef-attended pasta, New England, and slider stations. Dessert featured a gelato bar and tiramisu in lieu of a traditional cake. Beverage service was equally tailored—guests were greeted with Aperol spritzes and lemonade upon arrival, wine and spirits were sourced directly through Coastal Gourmet, and the team accommodated bringing in our own beer selections to match our specific tastes. Staff & Service The event staff provided top-tier service that elevated the guest experience from start to finish. Waitstaff navigated a long flight of stairs with smiles on their faces to serve welcome drinks prior to the ceremony and ensured passed appetizers were enjoyed throughout the crowd. The bartending team operated efficiently and warmly - no one had to wait and guests well-attended to throughout the evening. The highlight for the groom and I was having our own waitstaff attendant for the evening. We can't say enough good things about Brit - she made sure we got to try all of the food and that we always had a drink in our hand. She was the icing on the cake for us! We couldn't have asked for a better experience than working with Coastal Gourmet and the team! Photos by Branden Grant Plants by Plants by the Village”

“Great fresh food with a lot of options. Plan ahead on weekends, you should expect hour plus wait times once you are seated for your food. We come here frequently for breakfast - it’s faster to order takeout for sure.”

“Our wedding over Memorial Day Weekend at The Lace Factory was all we ever dreamed (and more)! Venue: The actual venue is STUNNING and SO UNIQUE, especially for the New England area! We toured almost a dozen venues and did not find one that had the vintage & ornate touches that The Lace Factory did. Furthermore, they have 2 great outdoor areas: one which has a beautiful garden and is used for ceremonies and cocktail hours, and a second in the front which has views of the Connecticut River. The inside is so charming, and they have beautiful decorations in their Decor Book to choose from. But they also allow & encourage each couple to make the space personal by using the shelves and tables they provide for frames, guest books, memorial tables, etc. Since the space is so large and flexible, we were able to have a Photo Booth, couch seating area, kids play area, AND a large Dance Floor. And to top it all off, The Lace Factory is one of the few we found that allows for "sparkler send-offs" which was a blast for everyone. Planning: We did a 1 year engagement and from the start it was a very easy process working with the staff. 11 months prior, we were given a very detailed tour and all of our questions were answered, so we secured our date over email with ease. Although we were planning from out of state, they were in constant communication with us, ensuring we completed all steps within our timeline. Anytime we had a question, they responded to an email within 24 hours or a phone call immediately. Additionally, they have a great reputation with various vendors and took care of contacting the vendors to provide them logistics for the big day (which was a huge weight off our shoulders)! Food/Drink: All of the food is fantastic! They have an extensive menu that can be served plated or buffet. We chose plated (and highly recommend the roasted statler chicken)! We were also in awe at the cake they designed for us that perfectly matched the example photo we provided (and tasted great)! They have many fun add-on options, such as a Donut Bar which was a huge hit with our guests. The drinks were great and the package included a Signature Cocktail which was fun to create with them. The Lace Factory truly created the BEST day of our lives and we are forever grateful!”

“We had a 35th birthday party at Caius last night. Fire in the Kitchen food truck was our meal. It was amazing! All our guests raved about how good the pizza was, fresh tasty, timely. The chef team was super friendly and accommodating. I cannot say enough good things. Highly Recommended.”
