Venue Spotlight

Black Swan

Georgetown, MA

Black Swan Country Club is a wedding venue in Georgetown, MA, set on 120 acres of rolling greens along an 18-hole championship golf course on the North Shore, about 30 minutes north of Boston. The 38,000-square-foot Victorian-style clubhouse offers two elegant ballrooms with cathedral ceilings, pewter chandeliers, and balconies overlooking the course, alongside outdoor ceremony space framed by pergolas and flower beds. Couples can host from 40 to 325 guests, with exclusive in-house catering handled by an award-winning culinary partner.

What makes Black Swan Country Club a standout North Shore wedding venue?

Range and polish set it apart. The Andover Ballroom, adorned with cathedral ceilings, pewter chandeliers, cool tones, and walls of windows, accommodates up to 330 guests, while the more intimate Essex Ballroom seats up to 210 with its own elegant window treatments and chandeliers, so couples can pick the scale that fits their guest list. Each ballroom has its own private entryway with a winding staircase, a spacious dance floor, a private Bridal Suite with changing room and bathroom, and an outdoor balcony overlooking the golf course for quiet moments away from the party. Ceremonies happen outdoors beneath sprawling pergolas surrounded by grassy lawns, lofty trees, and seasonal flower beds, or indoors during the colder months, so the venue works comfortably in any season. Reviews consistently praise the coordinators by name for treating couples like family and executing flawless days, and the venue’s exclusive caterer brings more than 20 years of experience to a menu built around each couple’s tastes. A personal event manager handles logistics like place cards, table numbers, and the guest book table, so couples can focus on the day itself rather than the details.

Lodging and parking

Black Swan Country Club does not offer overnight guest accommodations, since it operates as a golf club and event venue rather than a resort, so out-of-town guests typically stay at nearby hotels in North Andover and the surrounding area. On-site parking is available for wedding guests. Two elegant ballrooms with cathedral ceilings and golf-course balconies each reward lighting and sound tuned to the space, which is where Black Diamond comes in.

How does Black Diamond produce events at Black Swan Country Club?

A cathedral-ceiling ballroom with pewter chandeliers and golf-course balcony views rewards lighting that plays off the natural light and cool tones, all on LED fixtures. We bring custom uplighting and run sound that carries a pergola ceremony into cocktail hour and a reception in the Andover or Essex Ballroom. Our DJ and MC talent keeps the floor moving, photo booths add a keepsake, live musicians set the tone for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and our photography and videography team captures the golf course views, the ceremony pergolas, and each ballroom’s cathedral ceilings and chandeliers. For the corporate meetings and milestone celebrations the club also hosts, we bring full corporate event production.
