My husband and I look for this iconic location whenever we pass over Kellogg to reminisce of our wedding night. My Pinterest board for my dream wedding came true at this location and I'm so glad we went with The Hudson when looking for the perfect reception hall. Emily and her girls were very dependable, very sweet, very organized, and helped me with every last detail for our big day. We even had a motorcycle sparkler grand exit and the pictures of the industrial background of The Hudson is to die for!!! I would highly suggest this team and The Hudson if you are looking for an upscale and legendary venue to get married at that has a streamlined system for any DIY bride...OR one with a day of coordinator. Either way, just DO IT! Book the darn thing. Thank you, girls, so much for an unforgettable night, I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. LOVE LOVE LOVE you guys!

The Hudson is such a beautiful venue, when we saw it for the first time I pretty much already knew it was going to be the venue for our wedding. The staff is great and so communicative, so easy to ask questions and get an answer quickly, their floor plan program was awesome as well as the planning goodies. My guests had a blast and complimented the venue many times. We appreciate all the help the provided, especially with construction going on around the venue. Thank you!

The Hudson goes above and beyond to provide ease on your wedding day. The staff answer all questions and assist with navigating your needs. Everyone was super friendly and made the stress melt away. The space is absolutely beautiful from the hall to the outdoor garden. It was the perfect space for our special day!

The Hudson graciously hosted our Spring Soiree ladies night out for Andover Young Life the past two years in a row and the experience was unmatched! Our event more than doubled between the two years, and the staff was kind, overly accommodating, gracious in their communication and genuinely helpful as we navigated how to host a growing event! It was really fun for us to come back to their space a SECOND time and receive the same experience - I think that really speaks to the way they run their business and the staff they choose to work there! We are BIG fans of The Hudson! The picture below is just a snapshot of how beautiful their venue is!

We recently held a two-day work training at The Hudson and were thoroughly impressed. The smaller room was spacious enough for our group of 30, creating a comfortable and productive environment. The staff was exceptional, always available to answer questions and assist with any last-minute requests. We would definitely choose The Hudson again for future events

The Hudson was absolutely incredible with everything they did for our wedding! They made us feel cared for throughout the entire planning process and the day-of. They were there beside us for every curveball, and they handled everything we threw at them with patience and grace. We appreciate the whole staff so much. We can't recommend the Hudson enough!
