Best wedding ever!
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
Dream Wedding
From the moment we first reached out to the Kimpton Marlowe Hotel, Rachel and her team were quick to respond, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the venue and wedding planning process. Their communication was top-notch, and they were so patient with us as we worked to finalize the details for our special day. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful - spacious and elegant, with ample room for our guests to mingle and celebrate. Rachel provided excellent suggestions to help execute our vision without changing the core of what we wanted. We were admittedly a bit unprepared at times, but Rachel was there every step of the way to guide us. We highly recommend the Kimpton Marlowe, especially working with Rachel and her wonderful team, to make your wedding day truly unforgettable.
Kimpton Wedding Review
The Kimpton Marlowe Hotel was an absolute dream for our wedding day! Rachel, the event coordinator, has the best email response rate of all time and was a joy to work with. She is such a great communicator and her knowledge and understanding of the industry helped so much throughout the planning process. The venue itself was elegant, fun, beautiful and spacious - the park behind the hotel was perfect and beautiful for our outdoor ceremony, and the acoustics in the courtyard for cocktail hour were unreal. The food was amazing and all of the staff were incredibly accommodating. Rachel truly helped make our wedding day as perfect as can be. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and team to work with!
Amazing Venue with the Best Events Coordinator
Rachel and the entire staff at the Kimpton Marlowe were amazing to work with! Rachel in particular made the experience so easy; we truly could not imagine having to do this process without her thoughtfulness and organization. She is incredibly responsive to emails of any length. The months leading up to our wedding were less stressful because we knew she would handle the day of and vendor coordination seamlessly. She was amazing day of with an eye to details to make sure that both my husband and I were well fed and taken care of. The package as a whole was an amazing deal as we only needed to get a handful of other vendors. The quality for the price cannot be beat! The ceremony space in the park was perfect - beautiful outdoor space with shade so you and your guests don't melt in the sun. The other great review has been from my guests. We continue to hear about how much they loved details of the guest experience to make sure it was fun and easy for them as well and 9 times out of the 10 the compliment should go to Rachel and the team at the Marlowe.
