Modern Glam with a Classic Twist

Located in Walpole, MA, Avenir is the epitome of glamour. Couples enjoy the venue's stunning crystal chandeliers, large mother-of-pearl dance floor, modern décor, and classic color scheme. With a name that means “future” in French, Avenir boasts a multitude of stylish spaces, including an expansive ballroom. Other spaces include a bright and airy indoor terrace for cocktail hour, an enchanting outdoor ceremony space overlooking a lush wooded area, and an elegant indoor ceremony room. With two state-of-the-art electronic curtain systems, Avenir’s ballroom is a versatile space completely customizable for events of any size.

EXCITING NEWS! Ebony Hardwood Floors have replaced the carpet in the ballroom.

Our event minimum starts at $15,000, which includes the venue rental fee, ceremony fee, food, beverage, service, and tax, and varies based on season and day of the week. Please keep in mind that guest count and menu selections will affect the overall cost.

At this time, we are only booking weddings and larger scale events; including but not limited to mitzvahs, quinceañeras, etc., and cannot currently accommodate smaller events such as bridal showers and baby showers, along with micro-ceremonies or guest counts under 50.

The Perfect Day!

Kacey, Amy, Aubrey, and the team were amazing!! She went above and beyond leading up to the wedding making sure we were stress free. She kept us sane throughout the whole process! Kacey’s communication was spectacular. There was never a moment where we felt like we had no idea what’s happening with our wedding. Our timeline for the day was so detailed and organized. Kacey made sure everyone was where they should be the day of the wedding, everything was getting set up correctly, and we had everything I needed from start to finish. Amy and Aubrey were right by my side making sure I was eating, drinking, and my dress was on point for pictures. I remember right before I was going to walk down the aisle, Amy checked my makeup, my dress, then she asked me to spit out my mint into a napkin that was in her hand. These little moments really show how much they care to make sure you have the perfect day. We could not be more grateful for Kacey and the team. She helped make our wedding day perfect! We cannot recommend the Avenir enough! Love, Phibe and Shaleyse Smallwood
