Venues & Event Spaces in Peabody, MA

“We had our 175-person wedding (on-site ceremony) at Olio in early November, and we could not be happier with how everything turned out. The space is STUNNING and everything came together beautifully the day of. So many guests told us how much they loved the venue/how unique it was. How much passion and attention Sarah has poured into Olio is palpable! From our first tour in July 2022 until our wedding day, everyone we interacted with at Olio was extremely professional, responsive, and kind. At no point did I feel like just another client in their lineup. Also, their transparency and modern website was a breath of fresh air after literally chasing other venues down for basic information. I planned our wedding from France, and Olio was very accommodating when I asked to visit during the brief weeks I was in MA leading up to the wedding. It was usually Jenna that was there, who was always warm and welcoming. Besides a gorgeous space and top-notch team, Olio’s location was perfect for us. Main St feels iconically New England (which our international guests appreciated), there is ample parking nearby, and we got some great pictures in the area. We spent 2 nights at the Bell Inn and had our welcome party at Granite Coast Brewery; to have everything on the same street was so convenient! Side note: if you are looking for day-of-coordination services, do yourself a favor and book with Sarah/Without a Hitch (her OG baby) - truly one of the best decisions of our entire wedding experience. I could keep ranting about how much we loved Olio and the phenomenal people behind it, but I’ll end with saying that if you want a gorgeous, transparent, responsive, flexible, unique, and genuinely people-centered venue – Olio is it!”

“We drive all the way from Waltham to bring our kiddos here. I love that I can keep an eye on my toddler while she plays and explores and I breast feed my infant. The Piazza also offers a lot of community information and resources, especially for pregnancy and postpartum care. And the kids could probably care less about this but I really appreciate the whimsical and simple esthetic. It really helps me to feel calm and really enjoy the environment while meeting and connecting with other mommas!”

“Not a bad place to have a get together on a budget! Very accommodating, could use a little more dusting and cleaning but for 400$ were not complaining. Drinks are very cheap and hit the spot honestly might join the club house.”

“My 4-year-old son and I had such a great time here! The environment is really colorful and unique, and the women at the counter were super welcoming and helpful. There are bins to store shopping bags/winter coats while you play (very convenient) and the place felt clean and safe. This was about a 40-minute drive for us, and it was totally worth it.”

“I had a terrible experience at your hotel.Upon arrival the lobby had a bunch of people with no shoes on phones hanging out red flag, going to my room in the hallways it smells terrible like bad food , I opened my door and the fire alarm went off ( which I was told some kid pulled) I went down the stairs and people were hanging in stairwells went outside in the cold rain till fire fighters were done,in the meantime I was reading reviews of this hotel and a lot of them had the same experience saying it's a temporary housing shelterWhen I asked at the desks they very abruptly said everyone pays . Honestly I stay in hotels every week for work this was one of the worst experience ever !”
