The boat shed
We had our wedding at the Boat Shed last weekend, and I truly cannot say enough good things about our experience with Constellation Catering. They went above and beyond and completely exceeded our expectations. Mary, Chantelle, Amy, and Angela were absolute superstars. They took care of everything for us and were always one step ahead. They were patient, incredibly helpful, kind, and genuinely caring throughout the entire process. On the wedding day, we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing they had everything handled. They completely transformed the Boat Shed for our reception, and it looked absolutely beautiful. We chose the salmon and short rib for our entrées, and everything was delicious and came out hot. The entire staff was organized and efficient, and dinner service ran so smoothly. There was no sitting around waiting forever between courses—they kept everything moving while still making the evening feel relaxed and enjoyable. From setup and service to cleanup at the end of the night, everything was handled quickly and seamlessly. We felt incredibly well taken care of from start to finish. If you have the opportunity to book the Boat Shed for your wedding, do not hesitate. Between the beautiful views of the Mystic River, the history and charm of Mystic Seaport, and the incredible team at Constellation Catering, it is such a special place to get married. We feel so grateful and lucky that we were able to have our wedding here and truly could not have asked for a better experience
