We had our wedding at the Marriott Long Wharf October 7 2023 and everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Meg Garruto is a true gem and was a dream to work with! We were actually booked at another venue and after some issues we decided we needed to find another venue and actually booked Long Wharf site unseen. Our original venue not working our was the biggest blessing in disguise. The attention to details and the accessibility to answer any questions we had was above and beyond. There was absolutely no stress in wedding planning thanks to Meg and her team. We also were so impressed with the food! From the cocktail hour to late night snacks everything was perfect. Our guests have been raving about the service and the food for the past week! The location of the hotel and the views are worth booking for alone. If you are looking to book a Boston area hotel for your wedding I would seriously consider booking long wharf before it’s too late! We are already looking into visiting for our one year anniversary (and we are not locals!) because we love the hotel so much!

We couldn't be more happy with our choice to have our wedding ceremony and reception last weekend at CMAC! Adria was very communicative pre-event and easily adjusted our contract when we had to delay our date by one year. She also let us drop stuff off decorations the night before and pick things up the following Monday which was very helpful logistically. M ran our sound and lights and they were very organized and willing to work with us on running a playlist rather than using a DJ. We lucked out with beautiful weather and had our ceremony at the park outdoors but CMAC is really appealing because there's a good option for an indoor ceremony if it rains. The venue overall is absolutely stunning and our guests were raving about how beautiful the historic ballroom was. Great value for the Boston area and a perfect spot for a city wedding, with the airport and many hotels nearby.

Pagu 

5.0

Cambridge, MA
  • Up to 175 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Inspired by Chang's experiences at O Ya, Le Cordon Bleu Paris, Spanish three-star Michelin Restaurante Martin Berasategui, Guchi's Midnight Ramen, and Harvard's Science + Cooking Program, the menu highlights local ingredients, while celebrating the harmony of flavors and techniques of Japanese and Spanish cuisines. PAGU's award winning team works with you to plan every detail from menu, to cocktails, to space design, hotel accommodation and everything in between to ensure that your rehearsal dinner, wedding reception, or ceremony is absolutely perfect. Our chef /owner Tracy Chang is 100% hands on and will custom design your menu and experience from start to finish.

It’s impossible to fully express how wonderful PAGU is, both as a standalone restaurant and as a wedding venue. As Cambridge residents, we had eaten here with friends and family and knew the food, drinks, and service were excellent, and I hosted a work event with a partial buy out that everyone enjoyed, so it quickly came to the top of our list after we got engaged and were looking into wedding venues. From the very beginning, the staff, especially event manager Amanda, were so easy to work with, and they were very flexible to make the space, menu, and overall wedding very personal to us. After a cocktail hour with both passed apps and stations, we opted to have a buffet style wedding so we could accommodate a variety of palettes (our families are from different cultures: Chinese/Indonesian and German/Italian), everyone could find something they liked, and we could show off a seafood paella in a large format paella pan. They even offered a Thai pesto dish that is not standard on their menu! They were also extremely conscientious about guests with food allergies, clearly marking them on menus, and even going to specific guests (especially those with celiac disease) and providing separate non-cross contaminated dishes. They also managed the flow of tables and buffet line efficiently and flawlessly, which can’t be overlooked, as we’ve been to weddings where this wasn’t the case. Our guests all told us it was the best wedding food and cocktails they’ve ever had, and we were so excited to share one of our favorite restaurants with them. The space was perfect for our 110 person wedding. The outdoor patio was a nice space for a cocktail hour and provided a quiet place to hang out when the dance floor later opened. The main restaurant is much larger than it looks, so it manages to feel intimate while still fitting over 100 people without feeling cramped. We had the DJ upstairs in the mezzanine like a real DJ booth, which allowed him to have a great read on the dance floor and assure no one was sitting right in front of a speaker. Finally, they cleared the front two large tables for a dance floor that was plenty large enough for everyone to dance for over 2 hours. Finally, we were thrilled to use our wedding to support a local business that not only has a mission to serve excellent food and drinks (they’ve received James Beard Award nominations!), but also to build community. Chef/owner Tracy Chang founded several nonprofits during COVID to provide economic relief to restaurant workers and donate meals to hospital workers, and she and PAGU have been hosting roundtable events to start conversations about sustainability, culture, and community. We first heard of PAGU after my sister went to a roundtable event about using invasive green crabs in cooking! We knew hosting a wedding was going to be an investment, and while we would have been so happy choosing PAGU for our wedding for the myriad of reasons above, we felt especially great about putting our investment into a place that cares about the world and community around it. We could not recommend PAGU enough for your wedding!

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.

Our wedding day was amazing. Dearly Studio was the perfect place to intimately celebrate our special day and truly feel like the guests of honor. We hosted an intimate ceremony here, as well as our rehearsal dinner the night before. Jusmine was incredibly patient and supportive, tending to our every need. It was the best decision we could have made . The space is beautifully decorated. We loved celebrating with Dearly and having a larger reception elsewhere. It was the perfect alternative to Vegas! Also , pooch friendly.

The Center for Arts at the Armory is a non-profit organization that resides in a historic Armory building, serving Somerville and the Greater Boston community through arts, cultural and community events, exhibitions, markets, classes and more.

In addition to the many events that CAA hosts that are produced independently of CAA, CAA has four signature programs: The Spotlight Series, The Performance Opportunity Program (POP), The Somerville Winter Farmers Market, and ROOTED Armory Cafe Visual Arts Exhibitions.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding planner, I have the opportunity to work with a lot of wedding venues throughout the area and my experience at The Armory was nothing other than perfect. The team was responsive to all vendors, including a demanding (and rude at times) caterer, and offered a lot of flexibility to my clients about how they wanted the room set up, and how they wanted the timeline to flow - it truly felt as though we were being welcomed into their space and guided through the process vs. some other spaces we've worked with that felt restrictive and controlling. Overall, if you're looking for a creative space that you can transform to whatever you want it to be, this is the space for you.

Mothership is industrial with spirit! Setting the vibe with unique and colorful murals paired with modern aesthetics. A variety of flexible event spaces for any size celebration. Customizable menus for food and beverage making your gathering uniquely yours!

My wife and I had our wedding at Mothership in the early Spring, and everything about the experience was top notch! Their Events Manager, Kelly, was one of the most organized, communicative and professional people I've ever worked with. From food options to set up and decorations, the Mothership team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Their willingness to accommodate the many guests with varying dietary restrictions was astounding, and EVERYTHING was delicious. They even made our wedding cake plus an array of gluten free and vegan desserts. The space was perfect and was able to comfortably fit our guests for dinner to dancing. They converted their day-time cafe space into the most amazing dance floor for us and our DJ. All in all, this team truly made our special day PERFECT, and I will forever be recommending them to all of our friends and family!!

We cannot recommend Hotel Providence enough. Due to the pandemic and issues with our previous venue, we switched to the hotel with only 3 months to plan. Kate and her team went above and beyond for us - from planning to the actual day, they were there every step of the way. They made a very stressful time easy. In addition to this, the venue itself is beautiful and the food was delicious (received many compliments on this). And how easy for our guests to be in and stay in one place?! We already miss this day and the team. If you’re looking for a place - whether for a micro wedding now or sometime in the future, you won’t have regrets choosing Hotel Providence.
