The Boylston Rooms 
Rating: 5.0 (45 reviews)
Easthampton, MA
  • Venue
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $6,600

Founded in 1814, The West Boylston Company was a large textile manufacturer in West Boylston, MA. At the turn of the century the company faced a crisis: the site of their mill would be flooded to form the Wachusett Reservoir. Instead of abandoning the mill, the company dismantled it brick by brick and shipped it to its new home in Easthampton, where it was rebuilt on the banks of the Lower Mill Pond. Now, a century later, The Boylston Rooms retains the integrity of the 1814 original mill in every brick and beam. Our rental includes planners and decor at no added cost. Whatever your style, with over 140 pieces of decor, if you can picture it in the space, we can make it happen.

  • Multiple event spaces
  • Allows pets

From the very first tour until the last moments of our wedding celebrations, the Boylston Rooms went above and beyond our expectations for a wedding venue. Erin and Myles were phenomenal to work with throughout our planning process, and they made the entire experience seamless. Erin's kindness and compassion as we worked through a last minute family illness was incredible. Myles' preparation for anything and everything helped make us feel calm and supported throughout our day. We also ended our day with Alli who helped ensure our guests were shuttled safely back to the hotel and our belongings were gathered to help us end our day with everything we needed. Our guests RAVED about how beautiful the space was. There aren't enough words to describe how grateful we are to have chosen the Boylston Rooms for our special day. Not only will you have the most stunning venue, but you'll also get to work with some of the best people you'd ever want to meet.

Awarded Best of Zola
One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was choosing vendors who are great people with passion, care, and great energy. DJ Kevin is all of the above - the vibes were immaculate. My husband is a musician so music was one of the most important aspects of the wedding for him and DJ Kevin met his high standards. Leading up to the wedding, Kevin was informative, communicative, and has the type of personality that helps melt the stress away (and I couldn't have appreciated that more in the last week before the wedding!). He was also adaptable without judgement which is sometimes in short supply in the wedding industry but goes a long, long way in my book. For the wedding, we created playlists for the different sections of the wedding, and Kevin knew just how to make our vision come to life --playing the right songs at just the right time and helping the wedding flow seamlessly. He also helped curate the perfect mood for dancing with his light design, and his new Photo Booth add on gave our guests an endless source of enjoyment when they needed to catch their breath off the dance floor. (And even more enjoyment for us when we got to see all the pictures and gifs people took after the wedding!). And if all that wasn't enough already, he even volunteered to take pictures during our sparkler exit and captured one of my favorite pictures of the whole day! If I ever needed to plan a big event again in the future, the choice for DJ is already made.

Pat brings a lifelong passion for music and lighting to every celebration he’s part of. Creating a custom soundtrack and designing lighting that adds depth and atmosphere are central to his approach. He focuses on how a celebration feels from start to finish, guiding the energy of the night with intention and care. Pat works throughout the Berkshires, Hartford, the Connecticut shoreline, the Hudson Valley, Newport, and the greater Boston area.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Pat was a pleasure to work with for our August 2025 wedding! He was extremely prepared throughout the entire day and made sure to provide extra microphones, as well as extras to the extras, in the event they were needed. We shared with Pat that my mother has a tremor and he provided us with mic stands for the speeches so that she would feel completely comfortable the entire time. He transitioned our ceremony music seamlessly and thoughtfully, and never failed to communicate with us throughout the day as the timeline changed. Inevitably, our timeline fell slightly behind, and Pat was flexible with his set to keep people dancing for the entirety of the shortened reception. He made sure all of our 'must-play' songs were played and ensured our 'do not play songs' were not. We loved his lighting setup and could not have asked for a better experience. He communicated with kindness to all of our other vendors, and we are so happy that we chose Rob Alberti Event Services for our wedding!

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Danny was not only extremely kind, thoughtful, fun, energetic, and easy to work with, but the photos he captured of our wedding day are so very stunning. He was flexible with us from start to finish, and was like a breath of fresh air as a vendor in our wedding planning process. Would absolutely recommend 10/10!

Awarded Best of Zola
Valerie of Frosted Swirl was an absolute delight to work with while creating mine and Dylan’s dream sweetheart wedding cake and cupcakes! From the very beginning, she made the entire process feel exciting, easy, and so special. We started with a tasting box, and honestly… we wished we could have chosen every single flavor. Each cupcake was beautifully crafted and unbelievably delicious. We ultimately chose four flavors that perfectly complemented our November 1st wedding - Apple Cider Donut, Cannoli, Brownie Sundae, and Chocolate Raspberry. The Chocolate Raspberry was so incredible that we knew immediately it had to be our sweetheart cake flavor as well! Our cake was stunning! Elegant white with pearl detailing - simple, romantic, and perfectly “us.” Valerie even offered to add fresh flowers if we left some for her the morning of the wedding, and that extra touch made it even more breathtaking. It truly came out perfect. Not only were the desserts beautiful, but our guests are still talking about how amazing everything tasted! We can’t thank Valerie enough for her talent, care, and sweetness throughout the entire process. We would recommend her again and again! – Mr. & Mrs. Gillen

We had such a wonderful experience with our wedding photographer. On the wedding day, there was a bit of a hiccup with the timeline, we were running behind due to delays with hair and makeup.

Planning one of the most important moments in your life can be super stressful and even more exciting! As you take your first steps down the aisle and see your partner see you looking and feeling the most beautiful you ever have is so worth all the “stress”. Here is where it all comes together. My goal for every bride is to take as much of the stress away from you as I possibly can as you start your day. In addition to offering custom flawless hair, I can travel to you! Home, hotel or yurt in the woods, all can be accommodated.

Moonstone Bridal was a dream to work with for my small wedding. From our first consultation, Justine’s communication was clear, enthusiastic and positive - she listened to my needs and was ready for anything I needed. She was always open to small tweaks I had for colors and styles during and after the trial. I was especially grateful that she took the time to buy and use a special hypoallergenic brush cleaner to accommodate my very sensitive skin. Thanks to her expertise and care, I (and my two bridesmaids) felt confident, comfortable and beautiful!!

From our first conversation with The Log Cabin team, we knew we were in good hands—they responded quickly and answered every question with honesty that put us at ease. Nicole worked closely with us throughout the planning process to make sure every detail matched our vision, and on the day of the wedding, Cailee's leadership as our server turned into so much more when she stepped in to help coordinate things behind the scenes. The venue itself is stunning and elegant, with a one-of-a-kind charm that felt perfect for us. Their team kept everything running smoothly while maintaining the clean, sophisticated feel we wanted for our celebration.

Can I just start by saying that Alex was the most kind and attentive person and I have truly never felt more beautiful than the glam she did for me on my wedding day! She is a true artist, easy to talk to, and had such a calming presence (which honestly is huge on the wedding day when there is so much happening around you.) Alex and her assistant Gia were so easy to communicate with during all the coordination in the time leading up to wedding. All of my questions were answered promptly and Alex provides amazing guides to help you get ready in the months leading up! I was in a unique situation where I was traveling across the country for my wedding in MA and needed to do my trial the day before the wedding. She was incredibly accommodating, and even personalized my look to be a bit softer so I could wear it out to my rehearsal dinner. I sent her the inspiration ahead of time and she created the most beautiful look for me and even inspired me to start wearing lip liner! Alex did an incredible job and managed to glam me (27), my grandmother (72), my mother-in-law (53), and my step-mom, (54) all different ages, complexions, goals, skin types, and desires, and she absolutely delivered! The looks lasted all night long, photographed beautifully and I cannot thank Alex enough! Definitely book her!!!!

I had such a great experience with Lisa as my bridal makeup artist. From the very beginning, she truly listened — not just to what I wanted my look to be, but to my concerns, my comfort level, and even the little details I didn’t know how to articulate. She took the time to educate me on how bridal makeup works which made me feel so confident going into my wedding day. If you’re on the fence about doing a makeup trial, do it. The trial gave me such a clear preview of my final look and helped me walk into my big day completely at ease. On the wedding day, Lisa was punctual, professional, and kept the mood light and joyful. She has such a good, calming spirit — the kind of presence you want around you on a day full of emotions and excitement. I felt comfortable with everything she was doing, and that alone was priceless. And let me tell you… my makeup LASTED. ALL. NIGHT. Through the ceremony, photos, reception, after‑party, hugs, tears — everything. I looked flawless from start to finish on the most magical day of my life. Lisa is truly gifted at what she does, and I’m so grateful she was part of my wedding experience. Highly, highly recommend.

Photography is my passion. As a third generation photographer, it's in my blood! My grandfather opened a photography studio in Chicopee during the 1940's. Growing up, I spent hours looking at family photos, studying the faces of friends and loved ones. I read the hand written notes on the back of the pictures and I was taken back to the exact moment the photograph was taken. Even if the picture was snapped long before my birth, I could feel the emotion from that time. Photographs were and continue to be an absolute treasure in my household.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Danielle. She had great communication leading up to the day and created a detailed itinerary. She was enthusiastic and so helpful from the moment she arrived through the 8 hours she stayed with us. She captured everything and more with such beauty. She gave us space as a couple while still photographing every portrait and moment we wanted and also got beautiful candids we will always cherish. We definitely recommend and will book her again for all future events.

The quality of her work was truly professional, beautiful, and timeless. Britt made everyone in the wedding party feel gorgeous, and she captured exactly the styles they had discussed. She was on time the morning of the wedding and kept to the schedule we had made (and if you've been a bride you know how rare that is!). Britt was also incredibly kind and understanding! I made a last-minute request for her to help with someone else's hair at a different location, she happily agreed and the style turned out beautifully. Britt was simply the best hair stylist I couldn't of asked for and I'm forever grateful for how she helped make my big day perfect!

Hiring Matthew to capture my daughter's wedding was one of the single best decisions made for that day. He is thoughtful throughout the process, taking time to meet with my daughter and her fiancé and have them really think about what was important to them to capture during their special day, putting together a timeline to make the most of our time with Matthew, and then just seamlessly blending in with the day and capturing some of the most stunning photos. We were blown away! We had seen enough of his work to know we'd be pleased, but he exceeded all of our expectations. His level of professionalism is extraordinary.

Our wedding at The Delaney House was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Working with Nicole and her incredible team made the entire planning process not only easy, but genuinely enjoyable. They guided us through every step with care, professionalism, and the kind of attention to detail that truly sets them apart. The food was absolutely delicious—our guests are still raving about it. Josiah and Erica were phenomenal throughout the evening, and Brianne ran the ceremony beautifully. On the day of the wedding, everything was flawless. The staff anticipated our needs before we even voiced them, and every moment flowed seamlessly. The atmosphere, the service, the coordination—everything exceeded our expectations. We felt completely supported and stress-free, allowing us to fully enjoy our day. We truly couldn’t have asked for anything more.
