Black Rock Country Club Tee Times

Black Rock Country Club, or shall I say Erin Smith Roberts, is literally the fastest and most thorough communicator I have come across. As a past event planner and current project manager myself, I really appreciated Erin's quick responses and detailed answers to my many... MANY questions. I left no stone unturned, lol. I would hire her in an instant if I had my own event planning business. Seriously incredibly fast at communicating (would email me late at night!) and so professional. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful and shockingly affordable compared to other venues I looked at in Halifax, Canton, Stoughton, Plymouth, Hanson, etc. (essentially all over the South Shore). It had a lot to due with the fact that we chose the first tier package and also chose a Friday wedding - those two decisions saved us thousands of dollars that we could use elsewhere. I am very happy with how we budgeted for this and how impressive the venue looked. I will admit that our own pet peeve was that our drinks were forgotten when our server took our drink order during our picture taking, as well as our food was taken early (I assume it's because the dining room was closing out at this point, but I had specifically asked to not touch my food since I was saving it), so it was a huge bummer I didn't get to finish my salmon. The only other bummer is that you can't take pictures on the walkway where the golf carts drive (makes sense), but it would have been super cute. The food here was literally incredible, best wedding food I've had. All of my guests were impressed with it - and I can tell they were not just saying it. They voluntarily would tell us how much they liked the food. What was really cool about this venue is that we got to visit it however many times we wanted, including with our photographer. We also got to set up a little the day before (I was allowed to put my parents' place cards in specific seats where they could get a clear view of the dancefloor and the sweetheart table since they were at opposite sides of the ballroom). It was also great to practice our first dance while we were there dropping decor off the day before. We would definitely choose Black Rock Country Club all over again if we had the chance to relive our wedding day.

Did not meet expectations. Comments are from a paying parent for a wedding this summer. If guests aren't happy, the host isn't happy. Brochure mentions treasured memories and an "unforgettable experience that exceeds your expectations in every way" Not quite. It was a very hot summer day and some elderly guests were instructed to stay outside even 8 minutes before the event and not allowed to come into the airconditioned corridor to wait. Another guest commented that she was approached by an employee (before entry time) that walking around the property was not permitted. (Not a very welcoming start to the celebration). Next, several guests did not receive their requested part of the meal because what was supposed to be vegetarian, wasn't vegetarian! Next, the club has very strict rules regarding exactly where pictures can be taken in back of the clubhouse - a small grassy area near the fire pit and an employee watched to make sure no one went outside this area. There are beautiful garden areas on the property but you're not allowed to be there for photos. This club has policies, fees, penalties, that should be disclosed before the contract is signed and a nonrefundable deposit is made in order to avoid surprises and misunderstandings. The policies were disclosed over time and even up to the day before the wedding. There is a penalty if guests arrive more than 30 minute early, a fee for a security guard after 8PM (if you want) to allow easy access for uber. If you want group family photos at the fire pit area, mngmt says only one family group may descend to the lawn area at a time. They do not allow large group extended family group photos if there are too many people. If a couple is looking for a venue for their wedding, there are many questions they would not know to ask - such as - are family photos very important? If so, then inquire where photos can be taken in case of rain and if that space is large enough for their size group. "At Black Rock we take special pride in creating celebrations that become your most treasured memories" Not quite. As the paying parent for this event of about 100 guests, I wish that Black Rock Country Club was more transparent about their policies before collecting the deposit. This is a critical review and I hope that prospective couples evaluate my comments and that mngmt listens. This venue has great appeal but there is another side.

We had the best experience with Black Rock for our wedding. This is a gorgeous venue and the food is amazing. They were super easy to work with and the coordinator Tricia is amazing. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved our wedding! We had a personal food tasting which was perfect to pick the best meals. We found there packages affordable and a great value for the amount you were getting.

Fantastic golf course, beautiful views, friendly staff and one of the best places I've ever played golf since 1992!

By far one of my favorite rounds of golf in New England, with a very challenging but forgiving course on a beautiful piece of land
