Dream venue

A MUST BOOK VENUE!! We honestly cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding weekend at Dexter’s Inn! The scenery and views is what originally drew us to this location, as well as the ability to make this a weekend celebration with our families instead of just a few hours! We were able to have our immediate families and wedding party stay right on site with us, while the rest of our guests were a short 5-min ride down the road. We also liked that we were given suggestions for vendors but also had flexibility in choosing our own DJ, caterer, BYOB, etc.
The new owners, Maria & Paul, as well as manager, Beth, and the rest of the Dexter’s Inn staff were just so unbelievable to work with! Throughout the wedding planning process, they were so accommodating, flexible, caring, and professional. Every morning, breakfast at the Inn was absolutely delicious! We used their preferred caterer, Rolf, for our rehearsal dinner Friday night and the food was delicious! Maria and Beth ran us through our rehearsal and flawlessly executed our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They checked in with us often to make sure we were all set and didn’t need anything. Their hospitality is second to none!!
The Inn itself is gorgeous and the grounds are kept immaculate. Our ceremony was on the field and the views and setup were outstanding. The tent for the reception - GORGEOUS! We had a large reception with 175 guests and there was plenty of room, on and off the dance floor!
Maria, Paul, Beth, and all the staff were phenomenal. We cannot say enough great things about them and would highly recommend Dexter’s to anyone! We are planning to make an annual visit around our anniversary each year and are already planning a ski weekend with friends!

A Magical Wedding Weekend!!!

My husband and I got married at Dexter's Inn last weekend. I wish we could give 10 stars!!! IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE DREAM! The new innkeepers Maria & Paul, manager Beth, and all the staff are absolutely incredible. They made our wedding vision come to life and supported us through every step with great communication and planning - so much so that we were able to truly enjoy the weekend when it arrived - as if we were guests at our own party.

Dexter's Inn is a magical place to get married. You can have 50+ of your closest people stay on site and you get the grounds for the entire weekend. It felt like our own private wedding camp, with delicious breakfasts each morning, tons of lawn games/hikes/tennis/swimming, an epic game room, and gorgeous nature. The innkeepers are so accommodating and helped us with extra set-up needs, use of the common inn spaces, and more. This wedding weekend was beyond our wildest dreams and we are forever grateful to this extraordinary team!! THANK YOU!

Best Wedding Venue!

We used Dexter’s Inn for our wedding weekend in July 2022 and had the best experience. When looking for a venue we wanted a place that we could truly make our own and a property where our guests could hang out with us and with one another. Dexter’s quickly stood out as that venue. Here are some of the reasons:

The Full Property is Yours - When you book Dexter’s Inn, you get full access to all the rooms at the Inn (for your family and prized guests) as well as the property (lawn, pool, tennis courts, game room, etc.) and we made full use of that. This enabled us to do an event on Friday as well as the wedding Saturday. It also meant that all our closest friends and family were on-site to hang out those days and nights.

We hosted a large (120 people) outdoor event the Friday before our wedding with a BBQ that night. We played music, played lawn games (many of which Dexter’s provided) and enjoyed our guests for the day. In the morning of our wedding after breakfast (which is delicious every morning), we played pickleball, basketball and lawn games with on-site guests before getting ready for the wedding.

And lastly, we loved the game room. It was a great place to chill at night and to have the after party!

Dexter’s Staff - The staff at Dexter’s were tremendous. They went above and beyond helping us with setup, day of preparation, wedding tasks and cleanup. They were invaluable to everything running smoothly and were a joy to work with.

Beautiful Scenery - With Mount Sunapee in the background, the surrounding woods and well manicured estate, there were picture opportunities galore. It provided tremendous photos for the wedding day as well as great photos for the day before. It also was unto itself without other homes or properties near to distract from activities.

Make it Your Own - Unlike most venues we looked at, Dexter’s enabled us to bring in our own vendors, food, drink and other decorations. By buying our own snacks, drinks and alcohol we saved a lot of budget. There’s also a ton of storage on site for cakes, drinks, food and ice on-site while being 15 minutes from the supermarket and NH liquor store.

While we used Rolf and his wife (Dexter’s preferred caterer) for appetizers and dinner we used outside vendors as bartenders, the band, photographer and our cake. It really provided great flexibility to make the day and experience our own.

We really couldn’t have imagined a better wedding weekend with our guests and many said it was the most fun wedding they had been to! We are so lucky to have chosen Dexter’s for our special day.

Definitely take a visit to see the venue!

Great venue for your wedding. The wedding I photographed there it rained hard. The staff was great at keeping every thing on time even know they had to move the ceremony to inside.
