While you're here, October is the most exciting time to visit the Witch capital of the U.S. - Salem, MA. Only 40 mins north of Boston, every year there is a large spooky Halloween Festival during these dates. Recommend to get there early for parking as the Festival tends to gather larger crowds every year. Address above is the Visitors center.
Another favorite spot of ours in New England. This seaside town is full of shops, restaurants, bars and Mansions that make it a great day trip. This place also holds a lot of history for example being the location where former President John F Kennedy got married. Only 30 mins away from our Wedding venue, address above is the Visitors center which has parking.
The Groom's favorite Beer Brewery around the area. This place has a long list of a variety of beers from Pilsners, Blondes, Amber Ales to all kinds of IPA's, Tree House has great grounds, and a couple of different locations to choose from. May be a drive but worth the visit. There is another closer location in Sandwich, MA.
