Harrington Farm is a nice venue located in west central MA, at the base of Mt. Wachusett. The farm is actually an old inn with a updated barn attached. It isn't very rustic feeling but does have the exposed beams and a large stone fireplace which does give it a little more "barn" credibility. The FI and I visited this venue on a cold December day and the tour was pleasing. The coordinator Tracy was very nice and explained all of our options regarding wedding packages, ceremony and reception. They have a great outside space for ceremonies and cocktail hour is held under a new Sperry tent. The bridal suite is in upstairs in old inn and is very well decorated and overlooks the front of the inn. The groom's suite is similar with a modern/rustic mix, using black and gold tones for the decor. The barn itself is nice, with a built in bar, spacious layout and an amazing two story stone fireplace. The things that made Harrington Farm a no for us was the guest minimum of 150 on a Saturday night, the fact they hold two weddings on a Saturday and my lack of feeling that it was a good fit for our wedding.We wanted something a little more elegant. That being said they do offer a lot of options in their packages which makes them pretty inclusive for the price. I think that this venue would be good for a bride looking for a semi-rustic venue with decent views and quiet surroundings. Details below!
