Bear Brook Valley: Addition Updates

Hi everyone!

We’re thrilled to announce that Phase One of our venue renovations is officially complete! We have been celebrating many weddings in the newly refreshed cocktail hour and reception space for the past few months, and couples, guests, and vendors are loving it!

Since then, we’ve been working on the next phase. Our team is hard at work on the venue addition, and we’re so excited to give you a sneak peek into what’s coming soon. From elevated guest experiences to brand-new amenities, here’s what you can expect in the near future!

This is the view when you pull into the venue. The copper roofing will be going on soon to match the Silo Suite!


Main Entrance

The new main entrance will be located just to the right of the current entrance, under the beautiful Cedar Pavilion. From there, guests will walk down a window-lined hallway that offers views of the courtyard.

This hallway leads to a welcoming reception area that includes:

  • A cozy lounge

  • Reception desk

  • Access to an elevator and staircase connecting both levels of the venue
