The Villa at Ridder Country Club was an amazing venue for our wedding. The staff were so communicative and responsive throughout the planning process, which made things much easier on us. The venue itself is gorgeous - the outdoor ceremony area is surrounded by lush gardens and fountains, while the ballroom has beautiful tall ceilings and chandeliers. For the quality of the venue and service, we felt the prices were very reasonable. The staff were respectful, nice, and truly seemed invested in making sure our special day went smoothly. From start to finish, the Villa exceeded our expectations. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and highly recommend them to any engaged couple looking for the perfect wedding location.

We absolutely loved having our wedding reception at the Boston Marriott Long Wharf! The Harbor View Ballroom provided a stunning backdrop for our special day. Olga and Michaela were so organized and flexible when it came to planning and executing our vision. On the day-of, they made sure everything flowed smoothly so my wife and I could simply relax and soak in all the special moments with our guests. The ballroom and outdoor terrace offered unbelievable photo ops with the Boston skyline in the background. Olga, Michaela, and the entire Long Wharf staff went above and beyond with their exceptional service, attention to detail, and dedication to making our wedding day truly unforgettable and stress-free for us as a couple. We cannot recommend this venue highly enough for other couples planning their big day!
