About

Located in Concord, NH, McLane Audubon Center is a versatile wedding venue. It is an ideal choice for newly weds who want to host an eco-conscious wedding close to nature or who are seeking to have a serene backdrop to their big day. Couples choosing to celebrate their milestone moment here also have ample opportunity to experiment with their vision and make their day their own.

McLane Audubon Center is managed by NH Audubon, an organization that works to preserve the state's natural habitats. It was founded in 1914, and its programs aim to protect the species that call the area's landscapes home. They also offer education about conservation and manage 7,500 acres of land.

McLane Audubon Center can be adapted in different ways to suit varying event styles and sizes. The main event space is the PSNH Room, which is rustic and open and can accommodate up to 100 people. The lofty ceilings and exposed wood beams help to enhance its welcoming ambience. With the addition of the patio, this space can hold celebrations of 125. From the patio, the special pair and their loved ones can venture out into the pollinator gardens to enjoy the lush foliage and blooms. The team offers tables and chairs and assist with the event's layout. They can also provide access to their kitchen for your chosen caterer and a list of preferred vendors to make organizing your event simple.

Lovely, peaceful venue with amazing staff!

The McLane Audubon Center is wonderful! We had our wedding and a small “coffee hour” in the courtyard and it was the perfect spot, very peaceful! The paved walkways made it easily accessible for our older guests including one who uses a wheelchair. Our guests loved the opportunity to visit the raptor mews and explore the sanctuary trails. We opted to have a visit from the Audubon’s red-tailed hawk during our coffee hour -it was the best! This is the perfect location if you want to be surrounded by natural beauty. The space offers you plenty of freedom to decorate however you wish, though truly, it is beautiful on its own.

Lauren was a dream to work with. As we were planning our wedding during the pandemic, our plans had to shift a few times and she was so helpful, flexible, and supportive along the way. She answered all of our questions in a timely manner and offered suggestions when needed.

One of our favorite parts of choosing the Audubon, aside from supporting a great organization, is that we can go back and visit the grounds any time we wish.

Beautiful venue!

Our experience with Lauren and the NHA was a dream! The venue was affordable enough that we were able to use that money towards rentals to customize the space and make it feel like our own. Lauren was wonderful to work with, she helped extensively throughout the planning process and I never felt alone. She was quick to respond and thorough. For photographs, this is a beautiful outdoor wedding venue with so much variety! They have a beautiful open field, trails, lovely forest backdrops and even a treehouse! Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be and we're so happy we chose to have it here! Thank you again Lauren!

Beautiful, peaceful location

We were looking for a location that would feel natural, not manicured. If you're going to spend money on a venue, don't you want to feel like it's going to a good cause instead of to a golf course?
The McLane Center was absolutely perfect. We got lucky and the weather was beautiful, so we held the ceremony out in the back garden area, but it was nice to know we could have had it indoors if it was raining.
The events co-ordinator Lauren was incredible. Because we brought in all the vendors, I had a lot of questions about the logistics - she was consistently responsive and helpful. Actually, all of the employees were fantastic, making sure the site was 'wedding ready' on the day.
All of our guests had a great time and commented how beautiful and peaceful the location was. It was one of the best decisions I made for the wedding.
