I had my wedding here in June, and I honestly don't have the right words for how amazing this venue was from the very start in looking at venues to the day itself. Everyone here was absolutely awesome, Janene was with me from the very start, she was so attentive and made my vision better than I could've imagined! The day itself was far more perfect than I ever thought it could be!
Everyone raved about how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the entire day was! Not to mention the food was 10 out of 10! This place is the absolute perfect wedding venue and I would highly recommend it!

The Dennis Inn was an absolutely stunning wedding venue and we are so happy we decided to have our special day here. Lots of other venues on the cape feel like "wedding factories" that just pump out weddings, but the character we found at the Dennis Inn was unmatched They really made us feel like the venue was ours for the weekend and were flexible with anything and everything we wanted to do.
On top of that, every staff members is amazing! Janene was such a great coordinator, easy to work with, and made the whole process so much easier! Also, they were extremely flexible with the food - and it was all amazing. I could go on and on.we 100% recommend the Dennis Inn!

My granddaughter had her wedding here. The staff was so attentive and efficient. Susan was the gal in charge of our affair. She had ever thing timed perfectly. We all enjoyed our 2 evenings there. Rehearsal dinner and the wedding the follow day. My only issue is that it is not handicap accessible. Too many stairs. There are 3 to get to the bathroom. Difficult if you can't do stairs. But otherwise a lovely Inn for any affair.

My experience at the Dennis Inn last summer for my niece's wedding was sensational. Not only was the food and ambience outstanding, the serving staff was professional, attentive and first class. The special touches they added were very meaningful and unique, like the desert and special drinks. The day was spectacular and wound not have been the same anywhere else! Many thanks! Angela Grassi

The Dennis Inn is absolutely exquisite! Our daughter's wedding reception was held there last July and it was magical in so many ways. The setting was absolutely gorgeous as the hydrangeas were in full bloom and the inn itself and its surroundings are breathtaking. The staff is so pleasant and treats you like family. I can honestly say planning the reception was stress free. Janene was there every step of the way and she did not miss a beat. Treats Catering was also top notch! Tom is such a kind, caring man who went out of his way to help us plan the perfect menu.
The presentation was beautiful and the food from the hors d'oeuvres to the entree was delicious. The other staff members were friendly and helpful as well. When we were struggling to get lauren's train pinned up, a staff member came to the rescue and had it done in no time! To this day, many guests tell me this was the Best Wedding Ever! We also had a "Welcoming" Event earlier in the week at the Borsari Gallery which was absolutely wonderful.
Another beautiful setting and great food! Janene also helped us plan this event and Treats Catering, led by Tom, executed another amazing menu! Our sincere thanks to Mark and Susan Flanagan, the owners of both venues, and the amazing staff. We will cherish it all forever!

It was all perfect! Except. I just attended a wedding here, which was beautiful and full of extras. The actual ceremony was in the back behind the building and the pool. The grass was nicely cut and the flowers were in full boom. We had nice wooden chairs placed in front of an arbor in the back corner. We had several very large tents in the front yard for dinner and toasts.
The front yard was nice and flat and the grass was nicely manicured. We had several bar locations and restrooms inside. The restrooms were small, but very clean, and they also had a small basket available with safety pins, bobby pins, sewing kits, mouth wash, deodorant and other "emergency items" that may be needed at a wedding. This wedding was definitely on the "high end".
No expense spared and the guest list was 200+. The food was incredible! Salads, steak, fish, potatoes, mixed vegetables, bread and the kids got kid's meals with chicken tenders and tater tots. Hand picked flowers, perfect lighting, wonderful music, games, outdoor dance flooring. It was all amazing. Except. the staff was poor on so many levels. I was not only embarrassed by their lack of professionalism, I felt like they were out of place, like they had been hired the "day of" from whoever answered the Craigslist ad.
They were rude for no apparent reason, poorly distributed food, drinks, and hor d'oeuvres, and spent more time in the back yard sneaking smoke breaks than serving the guests. It took an hour and 20 minutes to serve 21 tables. In full disclosure, I didn't speak to one of them, and they didn't do anything directly to me. I was just present to see how they treated others, and appalled by their lack of friendliness and helpfulness.
Everything seemed like a chore for them and most acted as though they were forced to be there against their will. Although the wedding director and bar staff were terrific and hustled all night, but her support staff were just not on par. So much so, that guests needed to pitch in and help out. If the staff were better this review would be a 5 star.

The Dennis Inn was the perfect choice as the location of our wedding reception. Janene and Fred were great at communicating and helped us plan the weekend perfectly! The food was incredible - Fred is a master chef. Normally, wedding food is "OK". but in Fred's case it was restaurant quality food served to every person in attendance. Not only did Fred help us plan a delicious menu, but he took guests dietary restriction information and prepared meals suitable to their needs. Additionally, as we planned, asked questions, and made changes - both Janene and Fred were helpful and flexible, and made every effort to help us in any ways possible. In short, they made the weekend perfect, and we highly suggest using the Dennis Inn or Treat's Catering for any event!

We hosted our daughter's wedding at the Dennis Inn over the weekend of September 24, 2016. It was perfect.largely in due to the incredible owners and staff of the Dennis Inn. Having the house to ourselves for the weekend made the wedding so intimate. Our daughter and her bridesmaids stayed in the suite upstairs. No other weddings waiting to set up or tear down, our ability to personalize the venue for the weekend.
I felt as though we had borrowed a dear uncle's fabulous Cape house for our wedding weekend and found the best caterer on the Cape to keep us full of food and drink and then got to sit back and enjoy every minute of our daughter's happiness and the contentment of our guests. It is a special, unique spot and Fred, Janene, Sue, Tom and all the staff couldn't have been more accommodating. I look forward to figuring out another event I could hold there - it was really terrific!

My family had hosted a welcome party after a rehearsal dinner for our nephew. Let us say, the entire event was flawless. Janine and Fred accommodated food allergies. Food was superb. They were professional, staff exceptional and service above reproach. The setting was true Cape Cod. They were so easy to work with, true to their word and a joy to work with. Recommend without qualification. Eileen

We just had our daughter's wedding at the Dennis Inn. They are under new ownership and it was fabulous! Janene and Fred are fantastic! The building is gorgeous. The kids had the whole Inn to themselves. And the grounds. We had the rehearsal dinner there and the food was outstanding. They chose the clam bake and they accommodated those who don't care for seafood by offering steak. Lobster and steamers, corn on the cob and corn bread.
The day of the wedding we had the whole place to ourselves. We had hair and makeup experts come insight and my daughter got ready with all of us in a private suite. It was so well done and planned. The ceremony took place by the pool. They have an arbor that we had a beautiful floral arrangement on. It was intimate, beautiful and very private. We had a cocktail hour with hors deurves of lamb, clams casino and chicken artichoke crustini. Wonderful!
The reception took place in the tent in front of the Inn and there was plenty of space for the 108 guests we had. The food, prepared by Treats catering, was excellent. We had an open bar for both the rehearsal dinner and the reception and the cost was very reasonable. The reception was followed by dancing inside the Inn. It was a great time and we literally danced the night away! We highly recommend the Dennis Inn for any function.

August 28, 2015 we had our son's rehearsal dinner at the Dennis Inn and we could not have been happier with the evening! Everyone who attended remarked at how wonderful the food and setting were.and also, how attentive and friendly the staff was. Cathy and Brad were great to work with, always following up in a timely manner to answer my many questions. They customized an amazing menu for us and the food exceeded our expectations! We highly recommend them!

I got married at the Dennis Inn on July 5th of this year. I called in February and was so fortunate to be able to book the Inn. A hurricane swept through Cape Cod on July 4th and I was extremely nervous that my wedding might be effected. Fortunately, there were no signs of a hurricane at the Inn - no branches down - the grounds and pool were beautiful - it was like the hurricane never took place.
I could not have been happier with the venue, food, service, vendors and most of all Brad and Kathy. They gave us their time and attention, and because they have a one event a day policy, you never risk running over, being rushed, or being stuck in a specific time slot. This place is a gem. If you have always wanted a Cape Cod wedding but felt the prices would be outrageous, check out the Dennis Inn. Brad and Kathy will work with you to give you the wedding of your dreams with a price that will work with your budget. Kerrie Hourihan Hestmark

Just called to inquire about having my rehearsal dinner at the Inn next June. The person I spoke with couldn't have been more rude. All I got was no. When asked for a reason they asked what day, I told them and then " is that a Friday, if so we're booked". Nice way to treat a potential customer with $$ to spend. There is no excuse for rudeness.

One word: AMAZING. We just had our wedding reception yesterday May 18th, and it was fantastic! Brad and Cathy were so helpful, accommodating, and sweet. They did everything in their power to make our special day even more beautiful than we would have thought. The staff was completely on point--they were extremely attentive, helpful, and very nice!
All the food was fabulous. Every detail, from start to finish, was perfect. Their responsiveness, from our initial inquiry to the end of the event, was immediate. We can't say enough about how wonderful our whole experience was. Beautiful experience, beautiful venue, beautiful people.

Its very hard to be upset on your wedding day, but the dennis inn was not prepared for our reception. During the reception the power went out 3 times during dinner, starting when we (bride and groom) were walking down the tent isle to be introduced as bride and groom. power out, no lights no music. In addition, it was very hot humid and guests were overheating, I (groom) asked them to please take down the tent sides to get some breeze, we had to get up from dinner and ask 3x before the 5 minute request was completed.
Bottom line it really seemed like they were very unprepared in many aspects of the reception. On a positive note, it was a beautiful venue (when the lights were on) and the food was great. Everyone had fun because it was a great wedding, but the dennis inn added a lot of unnecessary road bumps that should no one should have to deal with on their wedding day.

Treat yourself and your guests to a delightful wedding at the Dennis Inn. My daughter got married here last weekend and it was perfect. The wedding party took over the top floor of the Dennis Inn and they were able to relax and have fun over the entire wedding weekend. Kathy did an amazing job with the food for both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding!
There were a number of small items we forgot and Kathy stepped in like a friendly aunt to help out. The whole weekend was just so much fun! Thank you Kathy and the team from the Dennis Inn!

Having our wedding at the Dennis Inn was one of the best decisions we made. Brad and Cathy were so terrific to work with. They made the whole process easy and stress free. Above all they are incredibly nice people! Their positive attitude rubbed off on the entire experience in a great way. The upstairs suite where we stayed was spacious and well appointed.
It couldn't have worked out better. The food was delicious and just what we had hoped for. Brad and Cathy take a lot of pride in The Inn and their commitment shined for our wedding. We highly recommend the Dennis Inn and are so happy that we chose to have our wedding here.

My husband and I got married here this summer and it was fabulous! All we could have hoped for and more. Cathy, Brad and the entire staff go out of their way to make your event special, fitting to your personality and vision. I was able to relax and enjoy the big day knowing that they would take care of everything. The food is incredible. So much better than any other wedding I've attended.
We were treated to many fresh, local ingredients, all elegantly prepared and delicious. I can't say enough about the entire experience at the Dennis Inn. The location and Inn are gorgeous, and it lent itself perfectly to our wedding. Guests were wowed by the beautiful spot; professional yet caring staff members; scrumptious food; and ultimately that it was a wonderful place for a celebration and party! I would, and do, recommend the Dennis Inn to everyone. If for no other reason that I'd love to go back again as a guest!

Can I give them ten stars!? I can't imagine a better wedding venue - it was perfect in my estimation. We were married here last September, and it was such a wonderful place to have a wedding reception. The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was totally relaxed, yet classy and beautiful. Brad and Cathy were very easy to work with. They took care of all the little last minute details we forgot, and they and their staff went out of their way to make sure everyone enjoyed themselves. At the end of the weekend, we really didn't want to leave.

This place is the real deal in terms of venues. Got married here this past weekend and everything was absolutely perfect. By far the best element of the Dennis Inn (DI) is the service. Brad and Cathy are easy and fun to work with. and incredibly accommodating. Their staff was on top of everything. They were not just attentive to us, but to our guests as well.
Everything that we asked for (things to be displayed a certain way, or for songs to be played at a certain time) were done flawlessly. And these guys are fun too. we spent time after the event hanging with them and everyone was very pleasant. The food. is f-ing phenomemal. It's by far the best wedding food I have ever had. Friday night we had steak tips, swordfish kabobs (yum!) and the homemade veggie burgers (which we asked Cathy to make specially for the rehearsal dinner) were wonderful. full of flavor (a little kick) and very filling. It was an honor and a pleasure working with the DI. I highly recommend checking this out for your next event.
