We celebrated an intimate wedding with 15 family members (14 adults and a baby) at Harvest in their Fireplace room. The day was absolute perfection- the room was spacious yet cozy on a frigid 10 degree day, the service was phenomenal, and the food was spectacular. We were a difficult group to feed; nearly every guest had a unique dietary restriction and Harvest ensured that each guest would remain safe and happy while dining. We will forever cherish this special celebration and look forward to dining at Harvest in the future!

If you are looking for a city restaurant-style reception, Pagu is truly the best of the best. First of all, you can't beat the food, it is incredible! Not your typical wedding food, thank god!

A Dream Wedding at Margeaux Supper Parlor We hosted our engagement party turned wedding at Margeaux Supper Parlor, and it was pure magic. From the moment we stepped inside, we were blown away by the beauty of the space - especially the bar, which created the most stunning backdrop for photos we’ll cherish forever. Rebekah, the owner, and her incredible team thought of everything. From a custom, dairy-free menu (which was so important to me) to specialty passed cocktails and thoughtful service throughout, not a single detail was missed. The private oasis room was the perfect retreat for a quiet moment together during the celebration and added such a personal touch to the evening. And yes, we even sabered champagne! Whether it’s a bridal shower, engagement party, or wedding, we can’t recommend Margeaux enough. It’s a truly special place run by truly special people.

The setup and layout of the space was ideal, and their team provided amazing and prompt service throughout the day. The food and drinks were delicious, and they were incredibly accommodating with the drop off and pick up of our decor, as well as very helpful with the setup. We were able to have our ceremony in their bakery space which worked out beautifully, then everyone flowed out onto the patio for cocktail hour, and then into the restaurant for dinner & reception—the setup was perfect and everyone raved about how great to atmosphere was.

We couldn't be more happy with our choice to have our wedding ceremony and reception last weekend at CMAC! Adria was very communicative pre-event and easily adjusted our contract when we had to delay our date by one year. She also let us drop stuff off decorations the night before and pick things up the following Monday which was very helpful logistically. M ran our sound and lights and they were very organized and willing to work with us on running a playlist rather than using a DJ. We lucked out with beautiful weather and had our ceremony at the park outdoors but CMAC is really appealing because there's a good option for an indoor ceremony if it rains. The venue overall is absolutely stunning and our guests were raving about how beautiful the historic ballroom was. Great value for the Boston area and a perfect spot for a city wedding, with the airport and many hotels nearby.

The Sonesta team is truly exceptional. Every year, our Thanksgiving dinner becomes a highlight of the fall semester, thanks entirely to the incredible people who make it happen.

Our daughter just celebrated her wedding this past weekend at the Kimpton Marlowe, and I can't imagine a more perfect experience! We visited quite a few venues that we loved, but once we found KM and Rachel, we knew we had found our place. I'm not sure where to begin! The planning process was never stressful thanks to Rachel's patience, professionalism and organizational skills. Our daughter lives out of state, and I can only imagine the insane amount of emails that flew back and forth between her and Rachel! She kept us all calm, and we were always confident that the day would be perfect because of her extraordinary efforts. The venue itself has everything a bridal party could want. It's in an accessible location for out of state visitors to explore Boston and Cambridge. The staff are all warm, friendly and eager to help with anything. The price is very reasonable; we had ruled out Boston/Cambridge because of our budget, but KM turned out to be right on target. There is convenient parking on site. We were offered a block of rooms in the hotel for an amazingly good price, so that our guests didn't have to worry about driving after a big party! The food was exceptional, from appetizers to dinner and even late night snacks of pizza, cookies and milk! The reception room was gorgeous and is very easy to work with because of the neutral colors. I think one of our favorite parts was that we had the entire second floor of the hotel to ourselves! The ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and even a room for the bride to retreat when she needed to change was all included. The younger guests danced until the very end, and the "older" parents and guests found a quiet spot to hang out in the lobby area outside of the reception hall, filled with comfortable sofas, chairs and tables. All who attended were happy with the many choices to party, relax and mingle. In my opinion, KM and Rachel are a still a hidden gem in the greater Boston area. I hope this review helps to get the word out that they are the place to go if you are looking for an affordable option with fabulous spaces, delicious food and most of all, an event planner who puts her heart and soul into everything she does. Thank you, KM and Rachel! 3

As a wedding planner, I have the opportunity to work with a lot of wedding venues throughout the area and my experience at The Armory was nothing other than perfect. The team was responsive to all vendors, including a demanding (and rude at times) caterer, and offered a lot of flexibility to my clients about how they wanted the room set up, and how they wanted the timeline to flow - it truly felt as though we were being welcomed into their space and guided through the process vs. some other spaces we've worked with that felt restrictive and controlling. Overall, if you're looking for a creative space that you can transform to whatever you want it to be, this is the space for you.

We recently had the immense pleasure of working with Meaghan, an outstanding special events manager who helped us organize our post-elopement party at the House of Blues. The experience was nothing short of magical, and we owe it all to her. From the very first meeting to the final note of music, Meaghan was the driving force behind an unforgettable evening. She listened to our goals for the event (a very non-traditional party), made suggestions to ensure our wishes were fulfilled. She brought our vision to life in a way that exceeded all our expectations. One of the most remarkable aspects of our collaboration with Meaghan was her impeccable attention to detail. She was beyond organized and handled every facet of the event with precision and care, from arranging the perfect decor to coordinating with our band and vendors as well as the House of Blues team members seamlessly. Our guests were not just impressed; they were blown away by the entire evening. The atmosphere was electric, and Meaghan played a pivotal role in creating a night filled with music, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime. From the lighting and sound, table arrangements, and the delectable catering options, every element of our party was flawlessly executed. What truly sets Meaghan and the entire team at House of Blues apart is their ability to understand their clients' vision and turn it into reality. Making such a complex event feel effortless is no small feat. Meaghan's dedication and passion for her work were evident throughout the planning process, and she always made us feel like we were her top priority. We cannot express how thrilled we are with how everything turned out. Thanks to Meaghan, our post-elopement party at the House of Blues was an absolute dream come true. The memories created that night will be treasured for years to come. If you're looking for an amazing venue and awesome experience for your special event, with people who can transform your vision into a remarkable reality, we wholeheartedly recommend Meaghan and the team at the House of Blues.
