NEW ENGLAND INTIMATE WEDDING VENUES

This guide will go over all the best intimate wedding venues in New England. Intimate wedding venues hit close to my heart because my parents were married at the Bedford Village Inn in Bedford NH. It's become a popular way to celebrate with close friends and family post pandemic. So many intimate wedding venues are small bed + breakfast venues, farms and inns that support a max of often 50 guests! Below are some of my favorite intimate venues in New England!
