“My husband and I were married at the Boston Langham in February 2022. Kerry and her team made our wedding everything we had dream of and more. From customizing our 5 course meal, drink list and spaces - everything was well communicated and stayed within our discussed budget. We loved our entire day and our guests had a fantastic experience as well. The service and stay are unmatched and the renovated event spaces and rooms are the best in the city.

“The Colonnade was our venue for our September 2025 wedding reception. The entire team was so attentive, responsive, adaptable, and friendly - from the planning process, to our check-in experience, to the servers and bartenders in the Huntington ballroom throughout the event. Our hotel block was easy to plan and all our guests really enjoyed their stays, commenting how everything was top-notch. I cannot give enough thanks to Geena, she was with us every step of the way and helped us navigate planning such a large and meaningful event. She ensured every detail was remembered, was so attentive throughout the year leading up to the big day, and was a true joy to work with - for us and our team of vendors. She helped us and all of our guests feel welcome the entire weekend. Wedding planning is a big task to take on but it was great to not have to worry about many details because I knew I could count on Geena! Chef Nick was wonderful to work with from presenting our tasting and sharing stories behind his delicious recipes, allowing us to use the Rooftop Pool for our first look photos, working with us to customize our menu and dessert table, and stopping by during our meal to make sure everything was how we wanted and more. The food and service was simply outstanding and the Huntington Ballroom was a beautiful and elegant space. I cannot recommend hosting your wedding at The Colonnade more - the level of care we received from the initial inquiry to the day we checked out was unmatched.”

“10 stars service at Envision! Held my son’s 500 guest wedding reception (Valima) there on 6/30/24. Christine and her team are amazing! Christine is very culturally aware and respectful of other people’s traditions ( for us it is Indo-Pak and Muslim). She has a lot of experience with this community. She is kind, professional, flexible, and stays calm under challenging situations. Every suggestion she gave was impeccable! Her team kept the food hot and kept the food coming at the buffet table. Very reasonably priced also. Highly highly recommend!!”

“I can’t recommend 1620 enough. They went above and beyond for our wedding from the second. We signed the contract. They had everything taken care of. The only thing we had to do was find a DJ and find a photographer or videographer we got to do all the fun stuff, tastings, final meetings, walk-through they took care of everything behind the scenes. We didn’t have to worry about a thing when one of their vendors who does the draping decorations and lighting unfortunately wasn’t available for my wedding day, Franque somehow got trapping and lighting for our ballroom space. I still have no idea how she did it, but it was there for our wedding and it was absolutely gorgeous. It was exactly what I wanted. Little details like this is just an example of the many things that they did to go above beyond making sure that there was no issues whatsoever on wedding day. Our ceremony went off perfectly. They have an outdoor ceremony space we utilized, an in file meeting. We discussed backup plans if the weather didn’t cooperate which thankfully it did (balmy 73 on 10/4/25). The food was incredible. We did the filet and the chicken saltimboca. They have incredible all-inclusive packages that include different variations of sit down or buffet dinners open bar specialty drinks past hors d’oeuvres. There’s a couple different tiers. The value for our money was amazing compared to a lot of other places around the South Shore. We got the best bang for a buck and I would do it again.”

“We got married at Wentworth by the sea hotel & spa in October 2025! We looked at quite a few places before deciding on this venue! I can honestly tell future brides that it was the BEST choice we have ever made! Catherine who was the manager took care of EVERYTHING for us, helped up go step by step and was able to make a very stressful time seem easy! They connect you with a bunch of vendors through them that you can use for invitations, florals, and cake! Every single vendor was reliable and easy to work with, and everything that they worked on came out amazing! I was so happy we used them all! One of the highlights of picking the Wentworth was the amazing bridal suite that you can get for the entire day, we were able to do hair and makeup in it! (no other place we toured would let me do makeup in the bridal suite) & they brought in food and drinks and you had a personal attendant helping you the entire day! We had our ceremony on the back lawn which was set up for fall and used the dock for photos by the water they came out stunning! Catherine and the team did an INCREDIBLE job setting up the ballroom, I gasped when I walked inside it was so stunning! We decided to drape the entire room and it was a wonderful choice it really added to the elegance! They took care of everything behind the scenes and I honestly don't think I had to worry about a single thing the day of. Everything went perfectly according to plan! The food was also incredible! My guests still talk about it! They also saved us appetizers from cocktail hour, and brought us up dessert to our hotel room that we didn't get to eat! They thought of everything under the sun and made sure it was a perfect day! I cannot say enough good things about Catherine and her team! If you are looking for a venue that is classy and timeless and you want a team that will make your day go perfectly have your wedding at Wentworth by the sea hotel and spa! Thank you Catherine and all of the incredible staff at Wentworth! You guys are the best!”

“It’s taken almost 2 months to even come up with the appropriate words to show the amount of gratitude we have to the hotel providence. From the moment we met, we knew it was a match. The chemistry was kismet, like where has kate been all my life?!? I hate that i don’t live in providence because I would have EVERY single event there always. We were one of her many COVID couples and literally had our food tasting the week before lockdown in NYC. Her flexibility and understanding of postponements, and keeping us informed on mandates and our options for everything was truly amazing. Now let’s get to the big weekend, from the SECOND we pulled up we were VIP’s all the way. Every member of the staff knew who we were and that it was our wedding weekend and i have never felt more special in my whole life. When i tell you that i didn’t stress out one bit because i just knew “Kate has this, Kate has this” and man she did! Every single detail was perfect. Everything was perfect. Every single person working the wedding was perfect. Food was EXCELLENT, like ten times better than the tasting. The hotel itself is absolutely perfect, the Rodger Williams suite was a great touch, loved being able to check on our dog from the wedding downstairs courtyard. I’ll be forever grateful to every single person that helped make this long loooong journey to the alter possible and for pulling off the greatest party that my friends and family are all still talking about. So if you want to feel like the most important person in the world, book with them.”

“Just a Girl Events had the pleasure of working here for a small wedding. The venue is amazing! With 3 onsite areas that would be considered suites it is perfect to host your wedding party from the evening before to the day after. The studio space itself is beautiful with gabled ceilings and a beautiful floor with a brick inlay that is of the original design. The outdoor spacing can host a small area for cocktails with great ambiance or just a courtyard to hang out. The staff is great and it really is a hidden gem but one that creates an experience not just a night Charlene DeLuca”
