Chesterwood

If you are planning, or thinking about planning a wedding in the Berkshires, you’ve come to the right place.

This magazine and its parent publication The Berkshire Edge have also been thinking about weddings in the Berkshires, and specifically about how to give you the best possible resources so you can plan your perfect Berkshire wedding.

In this issue of Berkshires Calendar magazine, we introduce our first annual special wedding section with great examples of Berkshire weddings at all sizes and in all seasons, plus in-depth information about venues and vendors with whom we have special relationships.

And there’s much more online. At PerfectBerkshireWedding.com, you will find a directory of over 300 local wedding-related venues and vendors, searchable by category, name, and location. No other online directory covers the Berkshires wedding services so completely, giving you direct access to these services with no filter or middleperson in the way.

So, if the Berkshires is the right place for your wedding, we hope you will agree that our resources are the right place for you to make your planning easier and more successful.
