Mojalaki Country Club hosts weddings, corporate meetings, galas, anniversaries and celebrations of life, with rooms for up to 200 guests and weddings of up to 300 according to the club. The clubhouse stands at 321 Prospect Street in Franklin, New Hampshire, on a hillside with views of Mount Kearsarge and the Merrimack River Valley.
Seminars and company events
The club takes corporate events ranging from small business meetings to company galas. Private rooms work for focused discussions, and the larger halls take presentations for a full team. The meeting spaces open onto decks, which gives breaks and receptions an outdoor option in good weather. Projectors, sound systems, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are available, and the staff handle setup, teardown, audiovisual equipment and coordination with outside vendors. Regional conferences and company gatherings have been held here, and tours can be booked before you commit.
Weddings and receptions
The club presents itself first as a wedding and event venue. A ceremony package includes an arbor and seating for 100 guests on the grounds, and receptions move indoors to the Kearsarge rooms or the Grand Ballroom. Couples get exclusive use of the venue and can bring their own vendors. There is a bridal lounge and a groom's lounge with refreshments, and the Upper and Lower Decks are used for sunset photos. Intimate and weekday weddings are also offered. Beyond weddings, the club hosts anniversary parties, baby showers, brunches and celebrations of life.
Rooms and capacities
The Grand Ballroom is climate controlled and takes up to 200 guests. The Outdoor Terrace is also listed for up to 200. The Kearsarge State Room, with exposed beams, natural decor and a fireplace, seats up to 160 and opens onto a wraparound deck facing the mountains. A large hardwood dance floor and a bar with an optional hired bartender complete the reception space, and a gazebo sits on the grounds. Smaller private rooms serve breakout groups. Decorations are allowed with approval in advance.
Catering
The inquiry form offers wedding catering, event catering and off-site catering. Menus are discussed at booking and are not published on the website. Since couples may bring their own vendors, ask the team whether an outside caterer can work in the clubhouse or whether the club's own service is required for your date.
History and setting
Mojalaki was established in 1920 as a golf course designed by Wayne Stiles, and it drew players from across New England. The name refers to a carrying place, the portage around the rapids where the Pemigewasset and Winnipesaukee rivers meet to form the Merrimack. The land was later farmed by the Flanders family, who supplied food to the mill workers of Franklin, and it now includes vineyards and berry fields. The property has hosted weddings, proms, reunions and fundraisers for more than a century, including a recorded farewell dinner in 1924.
Getting there
Franklin sits in central New Hampshire, north of Concord, at the southern edge of the Lakes Region. Manchester-Boston Regional Airport is the nearest major airport, and Boston is reached by road.
