5.0

Boston, MA
  • Up to 100 guests
  • All-inclusive

  • Starts at $1,000

For many years, Mamma Maria has built a unique reputation for distinctive and memorable private events. The five dining rooms in our 19th century brick townhouse have hosted receptions for numerous Fortune 500 executives and their companies, as well as many local families. Equally important is the trust placed in Mamma Maria to preside over many special moments in the everyday lives of our guests –a proposal of marriage, or a wedding rehearsal dinner. The most unique feature of Mamma Maria is its residential and historical character. Diners have the option of proceeding down a parlor-level hall to our Rossini and Puccini dining rooms, or else up a winding staircase to the Verde, Piccolo and Terrazza dining rooms. Mamma Maria is really five distinct dining areas -- ranging in size from a one-table private enclave for four, to a large dining room which, along with an adjoining terrace, can accommodate up to 70 diners. Complete buyouts for up to 125 can also be arranged.

We knew we didn't want a big traditional (expensive) wedding, and scoured the city for spots that could bring our vision to life. There weren't many options, but Bostonia ended up being the perfect fit. They helped us bring our cocktail style wedding reception to life and were there every step of the way, going above and beyond in the setup so that we didn't need any event planner to help. Rob was awesome and responsive, and helped us select the perfect menu, never upselling or trying to get us to do more. I can't reccomend Bostonia Public House enough!

The Multicultural Arts Center was a beautiful venue for our wedding ceremony and reception! We had our ceremony outdoors in the courtyard just outside the building, and the staff helped us to get the permits to use the courtyard, helped to set up microphones for the ceremony, and also helped work with us on a backup plan to have the ceremony indoors in case it had rained on our wedding day. The courtyard is a charming spot with trellises and greenery and is surrounded by classic-looking New England buildings. Adria and Taylor on the staff were extremely helpful in helping us plan our reception: they answered our many questions and let us rehearse in the venue so that we could figure out how we wanted to lay out the space. The theater hall was an amazing place to have our reception: we especially loved the balcony and the design of the ceiling, and there was plenty of room for a little over 100 guests, buffet tables, a DJ, and a dance floor. The venue was also a really convenient location for our guests - it's close to the T and has several nearby hotels. Would highly recommend!

Leslie Lindsey Chapel at Emmanuel Church 

5.0

Boston, MA

  • Raw space
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $550

Beauty. History. Sacredness. When you’re thinking about a location for your wedding, commitment ceremony, civil-marriage blessing, or renewal of vows, consider these advantages of historic Emmanuel Church. A short walk from the Boston Public Garden and halfway along the first block of Newbury Street, we offer our elegant Back Bay venue for that special day. Just behind the arched doorways at 15 Newbury Street are two superb spaces favored by generations of Bostonians.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a glamorous vibe
  • Raw space for complete customization
  • Multiple event spaces

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • No built-in audiovisual options
  • Limited cleanup and setup services
The Leslie Lindsey Chapel at Emmanuel Church was the perfect ceremony spot for our winter wedding. We knew we were in amazing hands from the moment we met Robb, the events coordinator. He was extremely friendly, accommodating, and quick to respond to any questions or requests we had. The historic chapel provided a beautiful, cozy, and intimate setting for our special day, and we were thrilled to be able to bring in our own officiant, music, and decor as many traditional churches don't typically allow this! The location was also incredibly convenient, right in the heart of Boston on Newbury Street and steps away from our reception at Rochambeau. We couldn't be happier to have chosen this venue and we highly recommend the chapel to any couple looking for an easy, unforgettable ceremony. 100000/10 experience!

The Center for Arts at the Armory was an exceptional choice for our wedding venue. From the very beginning, their communication was efficient, thoughtful, and thorough. The staff were incredibly supportive throughout the entire day, helping me with any last-minute needs and even providing extra materials and a unique custom cocktail. The venue itself is incredibly flexible and unique, allowing us to tailor the space perfectly to our vision - from the food we served to the mixed traditional and cultural elements of our ceremony. Importantly, the Armory is also a cost-effective option that doesn't try to capitalize on inflated wedding prices. As a 501(c)3 non-profit, they do great work for the Somerville community as well. I couldn't have had such a special wedding day without the dedicated staff at the Armory.

Dearly Studio 

5.0

Somerville, MA
  • Up to 20 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $300

Dearly Studio is a courthouse alternative for couples who want a no-fuss ceremony that's still personal, elegant and fun. The concept for Dearly Studio is novel, but not new — plenty of little chapels exist outside Las Vegas, and giddy couples have been skipping over to their local courthouse since forever. What makes Dearly so special is the care that goes into crafting each ceremony, the community of vendors we’re lucky to be surrounded by at Bow Market and the flexibility of our packages to provide a bespoke experience. Cookie cutter weddings are OUT, friends. Time for big feelings, small weddings and a celebration that’s uniquely yours.

Getting married at Dearly was one of the best wedding decision we made. The character and charm of the Dearly space is unmatched and Jusmine is like no other! Jusmine was available and helpful throughout the ENTIRE process- she brought the energy and careful detail that every wedding needs. Professional and personable, she truly made our ceremony one-of-a-kind. I rave about Dearly to any nearlyweds I meet, promising that Jusmine and Dearly will deliver because she is THAT girl.

We cannot recommend Pagu highly enough for your wedding or event. From the very first email, they were unlike any of the venues we had reached out to. Overall, Pagu is flexible, which not only made wedding planning MUCH less stressful, but it made our wedding personal to us. Every time we had a question, they had an answer and a solution. You’re not messing around with rentals for plates, chairs, tables, linens or tons of decor. The space is beautiful and already functions so well as a restaurant, allowing you to just be their guest on your wedding day. The FOOD! Multiple guests came up to us and said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Everything was hot, fresh, aesthetically plated and delicious. The family style sharing was relaxed, fun and nobody had to wait in line. The cake was so light and beautifully decorated. Day-of, what really stood out was the exceptional service and kindness we received from the entire team at Pagu. Everyone who works there was so positive, accommodating, and thoughtful. When I was “hiding” before the ceremony, the team delivered an entire tea/coffee service with some of the food to make sure I got something to eat! When we got back to our hotel, we found a portion of each dish in our fridge, just because they heard we hadn’t finished our second course or dessert while we were socializing. It was above and beyond thoughtful! Beyond taking extremely good care of us, all of our guests commented that it was one of the most relaxing weddings because the Pagu team thought of everything. At most weddings, there’s not a server checking in with you about your allergies, restrictions, and if you would like a drink. Since Pagu is a restaurant, you get outstanding restaurant-quality service. They even made a last minute, individual substitution for a new dietary restriction on the spot, and allowed that guest to enjoy the food, too! Another huge bonus was there was almost no bar line, since they’re used to making drinks for this many people! Other highlights of our experience include doing the cocktail creation session with Jimmy. We aren’t big drinkers, so we almost didn’t do this, but we are so glad we did - it was a blast, and the guests loved the personal cocktails. We highly recommend it! The space is gorgeous, the people are a dream, and the food was outstanding. Amanda (the venue coordinator/manager) was so easy to work with and on top of everything. Even our very traditional families (who were very skeptical when we said we were getting married at a restaurant) said afterwards it was one of the best weddings they’d been to.

You're essentially getting a 360-degree oceanfront experience for your special day.

What Makes Nahant Wedding Venues Uniquely Special?

Just 14 miles from downtown Boston, Nahant feels worlds away thanks to its narrow causeway entrance that creates an exclusive island-like atmosphere. The Oceanview of Nahant puts you right above crashing waves for your ceremony, creating those dramatic photos you've been dreaming about. Over at Nahant Country Club Estate, their ballroom opens to garden patios with historic specimen trees that add natural elegance to your celebration. You'll appreciate that Oceanview maintains a one-wedding-per-day policy, so you'll never feel rushed; it's no wonder they've earned recognition from wedding platforms like WeddingWire and The Knot.
