Our venue, the PEM, is a beautiful art and culture museum right in downtown Salem that’s been around since the late 1700s. You can wander through beautiful galleries filled with art and objects from around the world, explore historic buildings and gardens, and soak up a little of Salem’s story. It’s a vibrant, inspiring museum that has many lovely spaces which won't be open during our wedding but you may wish to explore during regular museum hours!
Before, during, and after our wedding, Salem will be celebrating 400 years of history with a variety of events. On the morning of our wedding, there will be a parade to honor "Salem Through the Centuries" that will wind through downtown Salem, ending by the water (and near some of our favorite Salem seafood spots!).
Our favorite, local cider brewery offering some classic ciders and many creative, unique options. They also carry non-alcoholic beverages.
