Venue for wedding rehearsal dinner

"Looking but haven't had any luck"
Does this mean already booked, wrong menu style, not enough space?
What type venue are you looking for? Only restaurants? Your date, a Thursday should be easier than a weekend.
Gunstock does weddings and events and you can get group discounts for the adventure park. You can do a private lounge on the Mount Washington. Rent a tent and hire a caterer.

The wedding is at Church Landing so we are looking for a different venue to have the dinner. The Woodshed was the best option but they cannot accommodate that number of people and due to the fact that we are in the busy season our options are limited. The O Streak House does not do large parties nor does the Canoe.

I have never been there or heard anything about it (good or bad). But it looks like a nice place from their website. Anyone ever try it?

The Winnipesaukee Belle could probably pick you and your guests up right at the Meredith Town Docks.

Ellacoya Barn & Grille has a beautiful new function area upstairs .....

That would put you just inside your 30 min range

But I agree -- the "Belle" would be a show stopper and I have seen her in Meredith Bay before (not sure if just cruzin or an actual pick up) .... worth a phone call to see

Have you considered other Common Man properties such as Lago or Lakehouse Grille? You could also look at Hart's Turkey Farm or Akwa Marina for different additional options.

Castle in the Clouds?

The Ashland Common Man can accomodate up to 40 http://www.thecman.com/groups-and-special-events/ and gives you a good excuse to limit some of those people you don't really want to invite
