Cambridge Boat Club 

5.0

CAMBRIDGE, MA
  • Up to 120 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

Cambridge Boat Club is a social and rowing club, located on the banks of the Charles River overlooking Eliot Bridge. Originally built in 1909, CBC was picked up in its entirety and rolled upstream to its current location in 1947, to make room for the building of Memorial Drive. Featuring vaulted ceilings and dark exposed beams akin to a ski chalet, and double french doors opening to a full length veranda, CBC offers a unique, rustic setting for any event.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Multiple event spaces
  • Raw space for complete customization
  • Has a dance floor to dance the night away

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • No on-site guest accommodations
  • Couple must handle cleanup and setup
The Cambridge Boat Club was the perfect choice for our New England fall-themed wedding! It is an absolutely gorgeous location on the river with just the right amount of historic charm. We had originally considered going with all-inclusive venues, but ultimately opted for the flexibility we had with the CBC to craft our own vision. The venue features two distinct rooms, a larger room called the Drinkwater room, which can be used for the wedding dinner, the Club Room, which was used for cocktail hour and the dance floor, and a porch, which has a stunning view. The layout perfectly accommodated both the party enthusiasts and our more introverted guests, who preferred quieter spaces for rest and socialization away from the dance floor. Opting for this venue requires a more DIY approach compared to all-inclusive options. Since it is a historic building, there are some restrictions to be aware of, e.g. no sparklers or ceiling drapery, and existing wall decor generally need to stay on the wall. This was no issue for us since we had a clear vision for the wedding theme and decor, and enlisted the help of Tastings Catering (highly recommend, since they have previous experience working in this space and also handle some of the decor) and Designlight. Major shoutout to Katie Donnelly, the club manager at Cambridge Boat Club, who always responded in record time to all our inquiries and provided helpful guidance. With everyone's help, we were able to create the wedding of our dreams!

The Oceanview of Nahant was the 2nd and last wedding venue we toured because we immediately fell in love. Photos cannot do the Oceanview justice - this venue is immaculate, swoon-worthy, and a ‘hidden gem’ just outside of Boston! By some miracle, they had a last-minute opening for an evening wedding and we planned our "simplistic, but elegant with a touch of nautical" dream wedding in just under a year. From our tour with Brenda (Owner) to our wedding day, everything was flawless. My husband and I cannot praise the staff enough, but a huge shout-out goes to our point of contact & day of coordinator, Allison (Director of Weddings & Events). She went above and beyond, answering all of our questions, including working with her bartenders to ensure our special signature raspberry sangria was a hit and that everything ran like clockwork on the big day. We also want to thank Lish, our co day-of coordinator, for being so joyful and also making sure our moving our florals from the ceremony to the reception looked perfect. Our guests raved about the food (the lamb passed apps were a hit!) and enjoyed exploring all the different spaces from ballroom to cocktail lounge, terraces & “lawn” games! It's been just over a week since our wedding, and we’re still in awe of our day. If you are considering having your special day at the Oceanview, book it. It's worth every penny.

My husband and I wanted a smaller wedding, as an avid guest at Woodshill it was my first choice as our reception location. If you have ever been for dinner you know how amazing the food is, but if you have not take my word that the food is unmatched in its presentation, quality, and taste. The food is farm to table from their personal farm or locally sourced. Every person at my wedding raved about the food, I kept hearing “this is the best food I have ever had at a wedding”. This of course was no surprised to me but I was so happy to share the food experience with my guest. The food is served family style but don’t be fooled by the term as the presentation was so pretty it was far from just a plate of food. There was plenty of food to go around from the passed apps to the three courses we chose. My table was not even able to finish what was served! The venue itself is gorgeous. The views of the ocean is breathtaking both during the day and at night. The aesthetic inside is so beautiful all I added was some centerpieces on each table. A little goes a long way here! It also makes it so much less stressful when all you have to add is a few flowers, the restaurants beauty does the rest! I worked with Emily to curate a menu of food and drinks as well as plan out all the details of the night. She was so thoughtful and kind and had great communication skills. She was quick to respond via email or phone and is super knowledgeable. She had great recommendations and was easily able to guide me to making the perfect night! The staff was super attentive and professional all night making the most delicious cocktails, serving, resetting and transitioning from each course seamlessly. I can’t recommend Woodshill enough, it made the perfect place to gather our family and celebrate our wedding.

My husband and I got married here in September and I cannot say enough about Donna, Dionna, Chef Eides, and their team! We had the perfect day thanks to their help in the planning process and day of coordination and management. Our guests raved about the food, the bar, and most of all - the view. Not only was Dionna a partner in helping us secure our other vendors (who were 10/10 themselves!!), but she went above and beyond the day of to make sure every detail matched our vision. (You can see my face when we saw our reception space for the first time in the pictures.) If we had it to do all over again, we wouldn’t change a thing!

We had our wedding at Venezia on 6/29/24 and it was absolutely perfect. Jennifer was our coordinator that we worked with throughout the entire process. She was so helpful and organized during the entire planning phase and truly listened to each one of our requests to make them a reality. The food was phenomenal, we have had so many guests reach out to say how delicious everything was, from the massive cheese display to the portion sizes of the dinners and the dessert table was HUGE. There was plenty of food and plenty of staff to assist all 250 of our guests. As the bride and groom, one staff member, Rob was nearby us all night for any single thing we needed and to ensure we were having a great time. He was so helpful! The timeline of the entire day went off without a hitch, once again thanks to Jen for understanding how we wanted everything to flow and to the entire staff for executing. There were no delays in getting food to tables and the entire ceremony and reception flowed smoothly. The newly renovated second floor space is STUNNING. We had our ceremony up here and it was beautiful. The venue has ocean views on both levels and a beautiful deck that guests were able to use during our reception. I can not recommend Venezia enough for a wedding or any other event - they are truly professionals and experts at what they do. Our day was perfect and we are so happy this was our venue.
