This wedding took place on New Year's Eve, and we catered it for this charming couple (see their photo at the end of this post) at the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM). These photos were snapped for us by Lindsay Otis who was our catering manager in charge of this event.<br />
<br />
Here are some quotations from the survey we sent to this couple after their wedding:<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt;">"Lindsay
was phenomenal! We really enjoyed working with her. She strove to ensure we
were happy with everything and did anything she could to alleviate our
concerns."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;">"She was always available and was clearly interested in making our
occasion and any related details a priority."</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;">Here are the photos. We especially love the snowflakes on the wall of the Atrium where the ceremony took place, and the use of her family "cake topper" which is dated 1948. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Having a </span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">wedding</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> on New Year's Eve is such a smart thing to do. Your family and friends will have a unique party to attend on that festive evening. Clearly you will never forget your anniversary date, and you can always be at a party to celebrate on that special occasion. And having it just one block from a unique historic hotel like the Hawthorne Hotel makes sure that folks can party and stay safe on this festive night of the year.</span><br />

We received this "thank you" email today and thought you might enjoy reading it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Lindsay,</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>I wanted to let you know that you and your staff did an excellent job all weekend long. The food was excellent and we have had many comments on how perfectly the food was cooked and delicious the appetizers were. The point person Friday and Saturday nights did a fabulous job and a special thank you to the Friday night bartender (Pete, I think)...who was most cordial all evening and, with all the drinking going on, I think he remembered what everyone there was drinking each time they came to the bar. I guess you can thank him for the $1,700 as he made ordering drinks a quick, pleasant experience. </i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Brendan came up to me at the end of both nights as I waited for the elevator to my room and said everything was “perfect”. If it was perfect in their world, it was perfect in mine. Please feel free to use me as a reference anytime in the future.</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Please pass on our thanks to all involved. Thanks...Bob</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i></i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><br /></i></span>It wasn't just the family of the groom who enjoyed the occasion. We also heard today from one of the wedding guests who returned her room key to us (thank you!) along with this lovely note:<br />

That is certainly the case with this on-line review posted on the wedding site called The Knot.
We hope you enjoy reading it as much as we all did. They definitely say it all in a great way!<br />

I cannot rave enough about the wedding I had on 12/13/14 at Hawthorne Hotel. I will break it down: Winter Wedding package- GREAT value, I opted for more expensive chairs, ceremony there, and open bar entire time, which is why my cost was a little higher, but the package is a GREAT deal. Center pieces and cake included in package, as well as a ton of other stuff! Food- Awesome. Great choices, cocktail hour food choices are extensive! Decor: I chose a winter wedding. Hotel was FABULOUS! Decked out for the holidays with poinsettia tree and Christmas trees, and white lights and huge wreaths outside. Killed it! Staff: Easy, friendly, knowledgeable, and go out of their way to make you happy. Cool add ons: Super old hotel with that cool charming feel, not a "hotel ballroom" feel. Cocktail hour space is awesome with fun couches and decor, and above ballroom there is a cute little window to look down on reception space--GREAT for pics! I don't know what else to say, other than this place was magical. They MADE my wedding day. We cannot wait to stay another weekend next year for our anniversary....</div>

<div style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 26px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">One of the things that many people do not know about "us" is that we do off-premise catering for weddings, in addition to catering weddings here in the Hawthorne Hotel. Our VERY CENTRAL location means that so much is literally within one block of the Hotel, which makes utilizing differing venues to suit your needs quite simple.</span></div>
<div style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 26px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 26px;">That was the case for Cassie and Greg's wedding -- they stayed here, got ready here, got married at St. Peter's Church located just one block away, and then had their reception at PEM (the Peabody Essex Museum) which is just one block from the Church and one block from the Hotel. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 26px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 26px;">Here are some photos that we loved from the album created for Cassie and Greg by their photographer, Sweet Lady Jane Photography. This photographer did an awesome job -- she clearly has a creative "eye" and puts it to use in her work.</span></span></span><br />

We love these photos of the bouquets lined up on the window sill in her suite. Again, the grey day outside actually softened the photo and made the colors look like a water color.<br />

We recently added these wall hooks placed up high in each suite, specifically so brides would have a place to show off their gowns for the camera, and to make a nice hanging space for them as well.<br />

Something we love about being a historic hotel is that people who have created memories here always come back to create more--whether a year later or fifty years later! In 2009-2010, we had a Hawthorne bride, Stephanie, who was so excited about our blog and our Twitter feed that she let us follow her through the process of planning her wedding at the Hotel.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Steph contacted us via FaceBook a few weeks ago to let us know that she and Greg were coming to their "first" Santa Brunch, with their new little one, to continue to create family memories here. Seeing them a few years later with their son reminded us of how fun it was being there for the start of their life together. We thought you may enjoy a "look back," too!<br />

One more little thing -- while we were looking for these posts, we came across this post as well. <br />
<a href="http://weddingsatthehawthornehotel.blogspot.com/2010/09/wedding-in-week.html" target="_blank">Wedding-in-a-Week</a>, which reminded us that spending six months to a year planning a wedding is not really all that necessary when you work with a team of wedding specialists that we have here at the Hawthorne Hotel.<br />
<br />
This last post certainly demonstrates that we can super-charge your planning process if need be. So if you are a procrastinator, we can help. <br />
<br />
As a matter of fact, just for reading this blog post, and mentioning it when you book your wedding here -- if you choose one of our *Special Opportunity wedding dates in January, February or March of 2015, I will add in a one-night's stay in a suite gift certificate for you or anyone you choose -- you can use it for your wedding weekend, or on another date, as you see fit.<br />

With all of the elegant photos of weddings at the Hawthorne Hotel that one might see, whether here, or on our website, or on FaceBook, or on brochures or on The Knot, it is no wonder that many people think that a wedding at the Hawthorne Hotel will be expensive and out of their price range.<br />

However, that is simply not the case. Our weddings are VERY AFFORDABLE, especially when compared to weddings at a similarly elegant venue in the Boston area.<br />
<br />
Beyond that fact, we also offer packages which are even more specially priced, and they are available on our opportunity dates. <br />
<br />
While we know that so many couples are set on having their wedding on a Saturday night, especially in the months of May through November, choosing an alternate date can afford you a dream wedding at a GREAT PRICE!<br />
<br />
As of right now, the date of this blog post, these are the "opportunity dates" that we have available for your consideration in 2015:<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">That was the case of Marcy Smolow and Jesse Freeman who were married here on February 16 of 2013. <span style="font-family: inherit;">(Yes, you are reading that date corre<span style="font-family: inherit;">ctly -- we just didn't get their photos until this fall.)</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Marcy and Jesse had a winter wedding with a vintage theme (just a week after the blizzard so there was plenty of pretty snow). Their vendors included: Rabbi Dawn Rose, Flowers by Darlene, DJ Emelita from Entertainment Specialists, and Alicia Schneider Photography. Their wedding cake was made by Montilio's. All the photos you see in this <span style="font-family: inherit;">blog </span>were taken by Alicia Schneider and her husband. <span style="font-family: inherit;">I</span>n lieu of favors, they opted to make a donation to the M.S.P.C.A. and created a collage to honor our friends' and families' pets, many of whom were resc<span style="font-family: inherit;">ue an<span style="font-family: inherit;">imals</span></span>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here <span style="font-family: inherit;">are <span style="font-family: inherit;">some </span></span>quotes from emails Marcy sent to us about her experience with the Hawth<span style="font-family: inherit;">orne <span style="font-family: inherit;">Hotel</span> and Hawthorne Catering<span style="font-family: inherit;">. This first one is about </span>the elements of our "</span>package" wedding that she purchased: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><br /></i></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>"</i></span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>I was so pleased with that cake...both the design and taste. I was also pleasantly surprised that I could get something that beautiful as part of my wedding package....it was great that Montilio's allowed some customizations to be made without charging a bunch of extra fees. It was an example of how the wedding packages offered weren't just a value, but a value without compromise (something important to many brides)."</i></span><br />

cousin (Zach Freeman) had stayed at the Hawthorne hotel with guests when they
had their wedding at the Peabody Essex Museum. In addition to the
wedding, we attended the brunch the following day at the hotel. I believe
the catering for the wedding at the <span style="font-family: inherit;">M</span>useum was also done by Hawthorne.
Zach <span style="font-family: inherit;">and</span> his now-wife Emma had attended Jesse's & my wedding at the
Hawthorne Hotel and we had recommended they consider it when they got engaged.
While they didn't have their wedding there, I was glad to learn that they
had still incorporated the hotel into their wedding weekend."</span></span></span></i></span></div>

Sometimes our guests just say it "all" for us. What a great testimonial to both the staff of Hawthorne Catering, and the leadership of Lindsay Otis.<br />

A wedding that took place here on September 26 optimized that wonderful seasonal feel, using fresh, vibrant colors of orange and purple as accents. Here are a few photos that I snapped with my iPhone of the Grand Ballroom all set up to receive our guests that evening:<br />

We recently received this lovely Thank You note from the mother of the bride, and thought we would add it to this post:<br />

<i>I want to thank you for all the attention you put into helping me, Maddie and Ross plan for their wedding on September 19th, 2014. You always made yourself available for consultation, even at last minutes notice. You are amazing! Hawthorne Hotel is lucky to have a beautiful, gracious, patient, and intelligent Wedding Coordinator! The wedding went off without a single glitch. Guests raved about the food, décor, flowers, set-up. Everyone had a wonderful time! There were no concerns---We all enjoyed the evening from the opening appetizer reception hour to the main event in the Ballroom! What a fabulous job you and the staff at Hawthorne did! I can't thank you enough! My daughter's wedding at Hawthorne was everything we had expected, wanted and more!</i></div>

We thought we would share some beautiful photos with you from the Maglio-Williamson wedding reception we hosted on September 19, 2014. Our Catering Sales Manager who took care of the couple, Sara Norris, noted that they were absolutely wonderful to work with. The groom's home country is Scotland, and Madeline and Ross were all about ensuring their guests, local and from overseas, enjoyed themselves, even arranging for one of the Salem Trolleys to bring them to the wedding in Marblehead and then to the reception at the Hawthorne.<br />
<br />
The couple was warm and fun, which we think is reflected in their beautiful reception. We hope you enjoy a little peek as much as we enjoyed putting it together!<br />

We loved seeing it, and hope you will too.<br />
<br />
I especially liked the very architectural and "artsy" black and white photo in the lower left corner. Do you have a favorite?<br />
<br />
To make the collage larger, just click on it.<br />

We cannot say enough good things about the Hawthorne! It was such a great wedding venue. We decided early on that we wanted a venue that would take care of most of the coordination for us and the Hawthorne was the perfect choice! Their Saturday night prime time (summer months) package included so many things - centerpieces for tables, the cake, a limo (although we just took the $$ credit for that), open bar during cocktail hour (key!) and a lot more. Alaina was our coordinator and she was fabulous - answered all of our emails and questions promptly and provided informative timelines for when we needed to get stuff done. Liz was our day-of coordinator and she was wonderful as well! We had multiple meetings with Alaina throughout the process, but I met with Alaina and Liz a week ahead of time and gave them all of our "stuff" (decor, escort cards, card box etc) and outlined my vision with them. They definitely pulled it off! We received so many compliments on how lovely the Hawthorne was, how beautiful the ballroom (with those gorgeous tall ceilings!) was, and how professional and pulled together it all seemed. <br />
<br />
There are so many perks to using the Hawthorne, but one of them is the tasting dinner they provided. The bride & groom + two guests can attend a dinner with other couples getting married soon and they go all out - a full buffet of almost everything you can request for the wedding, passed hors d'oeuvres, cocktails. The tables are all done in different styles with different centerpieces for inspiration, and your coordinator is there to answer any questions and guide you through their selections. The tasting was a wonderful night in and of itself! <br />
<br />
I would recommend the Hawthorne to anyone. Compared to other Boston-area venues it is very reasonably priced, and so much is included in the package. It is a beautiful historic hotel and the town of Salem provides an amazing backdrop for pictures. Our guests loved spending a long weekend in Salem!</div>

This wedding took place here this summer. I thought you might like to see these photos taken by our hotel's evening manager, Elizabeth Buchanan. She did a great job!

And we do get to hear a lot of those doing what we do here at the Hawthorne Hotel, in making wedding dreams come true.<br />
<br />
Last weekend we hosted a wedding that had a very unusual cake "topper" on the wedding cake. Here is the blog post were we wrote about that wedding on our "daily diary" blog: <a href="http://www.hawthornehotelblog.com/2014/08/she-sells-sea-shells.html">Sea Shells and Piggies Wedding</a><br />
<br />
When you see this blog in the attached link, you will see why this is called "This Little Piggie" -- because there was a question about why they chose to have two little pigs as cake toppers.<br />
<br />
I just learned today that this lovely couple went out on their first date together to a restaurant with "pig" in the name. Then, when they got engaged, it was at a different restaurant, also with "pig" in the name. (I believe neither of the restaurants are in Salem.)<br />
<br />
So their cake topper of choice became two little pigs -- one that was modeled after her childhood piggie bank, and the other that was a copy of his childhood piggie bank. This was such a cute idea, I thought I would share it with you right here.<br />
<br />
Be sure to click on the link to see this delightful wedding. <br />
<br />
I hope to see you here, and learn about your clever ways of personalizing your wedding.<br />

Though only for forty guests, the shower was meant to have the large, bold feel one would expect of Tiffany's, and was therefore held in our Grand Ballroom. <br />
<br />
As Alaina Ferriero, one of our Catering Sales Managers, explained, "One would think 40 guests would seem lost in such a large room but in reality, the shape of it, combined with creative catering expertise, you will find that it really can work for a group of 40 up to 180 and still feel like the perfect fit. That is what is so great about it."<br />
<br />
Cheryl Ennis, one of our Senior Banquet team members, put together the beautiful buffet decor using items Alaina had provided, and the Chefs added their own little touches to make the food presentation "pop."<br />

Commenting on the event itself, Alaina said, "The beautiful bride-to-be
arrived shortly after her guests in a celebrity-like white dress which
was tastefully embellished with feathers and glitz. Her look so
perfectly matched what Cheryl had put together on the buffet it was
unreal!" <br />
<br />
The bride-to-be, Marisa Casaletto, wanted an upscale tea brunch with a
satisfying menu. Alaina custom-designed the menu to include hot and cold
teas, brunch-style hors d'oeuvres, and a brunch buffet. <br />

</div>
I got married on Friday, June 27th, 2014, and my wedding reception was held
at the Hawthorne. It was a WONDERFUL place to celebrate our marriage with our
family and friends. The location of downtown Salem was great for our out-of-towners,
the food was incredible, the catering manager I worked with was extremely
helpful and was very detail-oriented in our meetings, and seemed to want to get
to know us more with each visit.<br />
<br />
We had a wedding coordinator for the day of the wedding that was so helpful
for all five hours we were there, from when we first arrived, were introduced,
throughout dinner and dancing, up until when we were leaving to retire to our
wedding suite for the night. She assured us that all our gifts and things from
the reception would be safe and secure, whether in our room or behind the front
desk. It was a little on the pricey side, but worth every penny. And our
catering manager never pushed us to add anything- she even helped us get into
our budget by deducting an appetizer. I highly recommend the Hawthorne as a
location for your wedding ceremony and/or reception.<br />
<br />

I hope this is helpful to you.<br />

We are NOT professional photographers by any stretch of the imagination, but we usually can manage to capture the images we want.
So, when it comes to comparing "our" photos with a great professional photographers photos, the pro wins hands down.<br />
<br />
We were very grateful when we learned that not only did the photographer for the the Vousboukis-Mannila wedding take over-the-top great photos, but she also wrote her own wonderful blog post about this wedding. Here is the link to her post: <a href="http://laurafisherphotography.wordpress.com/2014/06/12/bonnie-eric-salem-massachusetts-wedding-photographer/">Bonnie and Eric's Wedding by Laura Fisher Photography</a>
<br />
<br />
When we reached out to Bonnie about the different details of her wedding, here is what she had to say:<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Inspiration for our wedding theme was not only that we love
to travel, but that we took a cross country road trip early in our relationship
after being apart for three months while I worked in Arizona. At this point my
brother said, " 12 days in a car together will make or break you"
lol. </i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>The blue and champagne dresses/colors were to match the most common colors
of globes and maps, and I thought they'd match the ballroom too. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>I have always lived next door to Salem but never really
appreciated it until I moved away. Long before we were engaged we checked out
the Hawthorne and wanted it, but I was annoyed that he wanted to look
everywhere else too. In the end, it was the last place we looked and our first
choice. The ballroom is amazing! We had a lot of out of town guests and we
wanted them to have something to do for the weekend when not at the wedding.
Salem's location and touristy appeal made it feel like a destination wedding
even for us- going with our travel theme! <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>My
mom made the luggage tags and we used them on our honeymoon to Hawaii ( Maui)
where we saw the same ones being sold in brighter colors! Our photographer just
sent us our pics and they are amazing, some really good ones of the hotel and
ballroom! </i></span><br />

I would put this video in the second category. It is a very finely crafted mini-movie about a beautiful wedding which we just happened to have catered at the Peabody Essex Museum.<br />
<br />
While this is a tiny bit long for the casual reader of a blog, I would highly recommend your taking the nine-plus minutes to see it. It is a clearly a well-made piece, and hopefully it will make you feel as good as it made me feel. <br />

Thank you, and I hope to see you here, or there.<br />

Especially weddings that take place here at the Hawthorne Hotel. We hope you enjoy these as well. This couple especially enjoyed the idea of "jewels, lace and pearls" -- they embraced a classic style that goes particularly well with the Hawthorne.<br />
<br />
Here is a link to their Pinterest Board, which is interesting because you can see how their "inspiration" photos turned in to the reality of their wedding: <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/samanthax690x/wedding/">Samantha's Pinterest Wedding Board</a><br />
