Canoe Club Ballroom

 

Canoe Club Ballroom, located in West Bridgewater, Massachusetts, is a historic wedding venue with a rich legacy dating back to 1904. Originally founded as a canoe storage facility, this charming riverside property has evolved into a renowned event space, hosting legendary performers such as Frank Sinatra, Glenn Miller, and Rosemary Clooney. Acquired in 1964 by ballroom dance teachers Paul and Laura Merola, Canoe Club Ballroom has remained a cherished family business, now managed by their daughter Stacy. With over 50 years of experience in planning and executing weddings, the venue offers couples an exquisite setting for their special day.

Situated on two acres along the scenic Nunckatessett River, Canoe Club Ballroom provides a picturesque backdrop for weddings. The beautifully landscaped courtyard features a striking white fence and a quaint bridge, creating a romantic atmosphere for outdoor ceremonies. At the end of the courtyard, a charming gazebo surrounded by hedges and flowering plants awaits, offering a perfect spot for exchanging vows. The gazebo, painted white with a brown shingled roof, is complemented by a tiled stone path that serves as a stunning aisle, flanked by white chairs for guests.

Inside, the spacious ballroom is designed to impress with its elegant wood flooring, wall paneling, and high ceilings that exude grandeur. A row of tall, broad windows floods the room with natural light, enhancing the venue’s inviting ambiance. As the sun sets, wall sconces, chandeliers, and ceiling-mounted lights illuminate the space, ensuring a magical evening. The ballroom also features a bar ready to serve refreshments and a carpeted dais for musical entertainment, allowing guests to dance the night away.

Canoe Club Ballroom is a premier choice for couples seeking a wedding venue that combines historical charm with modern amenities. Its riverside location, beautifully landscaped grounds, and elegant indoor facilities make it an ideal setting for unforgettable celebrations. Whether planning an intimate ceremony or a grand reception, Canoe Club Ballroom offers everything needed to create cherished memories.
