What Our Couple Say
"There aren’t enough words to express our sincerest gratitude to The Society Room of Hartford for making our entire wedding such an enjoyable and memorable day. To begin with, their team is incredible at what they do- Linda, Rachel, Jake, Judi, and Jonna were all wonderful to work with. From the planning process, to the day of execution, each of them went above and beyond to deliver a seamless experience. Every special detail and request was accommodated without any hesitation. The waitstaff were all incredibly kind and accommodating to our guests. We are still receiving rave reviews about the delicious food (the filet cut was one of the best we’ve ever had), hospitable service, and overall beautiful ambiance of the venue. The Society Room offers a gorgeous space to celebrate, excellent cuisine/drinks and staff that truly cares about making you feel so special! We are beyond happy we chose The Society Room for our wedding and cannot recommend them enough to other couples!"

"We had our ceremony and wedding reception back in March and highly recommend this venue. Not only is it breathtakingly beautiful, but was so easy to work with. Our guests raved about the food, service and everyone had an amazing night. We had great communication with our day of coordinator and in the meetings and emails leading up to our wedding. Our day of attendant was also so kind and considerate, making sure my husband and I were eating and always had a drink in hand. We wish we could relive this day, thank you to the team at The Society Room for an amazing day! If you’re considering, book!"

"The Society Room was phenomenal in helping me plan my wedding. When you look at their packages, you'll find them to be very reasonable. One common complaint at weddings is the food quality, but not at The Society Room. Everyone at our wedding raved about how delicious the hors d'oeuvres and meals were. My experience with The Society Room was excellent. They were incredibly accommodating, and any issues that arose were resolved quickly. I am truly grateful to them for making my special day a memorable one. It was a dream come true."
