We love Hampshire House!
My husband and I wanted an intimate venue for our 50-person wedding, and we instantly fell in love with the historic charm of Hampshire House. Sydney Turnbull, our coordinator, was a true gem—considerate, attentive, responsive, and detail-oriented. She worked closely with us from day one on everything from the timeline to our custom bride and grooms' cocktails, even down to the type of pens we used for our guest book. On the wedding day, Sydney and her colleague Lindsay coordinated every movement throughout the venue to keep things running smoothly. We are so grateful to her and Hampshire House for helping us achieve the wedding of our dreams!
First Class Reception Venue
Our daughter's wedding reception at the Hampshire House was a fantastic experience, from the moment we met Lindsay Beshero and the team through the event itself. Venue is gorgeous, food was outstanding, service was flawless. Overall a first class experience!
Our dream wedding!
We had the most magical day of our lives getting married at the Hampshire House in early May this year. Right from the get go, Hampshire House checked all our boxes when it came to what we were looking for in a wedding venue. It has that old New England charm, is located right next to the beautiful Public Gardens and is the perfect size for an intimate, small to medium sized wedding (we had 60-70 guests in attendance). Most of all, the food here is beyond exceptional and some of the best we’ve had. We are major foodies, and having food that was well-plated, generously portioned, and above all delicious and memorable was a high priority item for us. We were lucky enough to be able to work with Sydney Turnbull and the Hampshire house team. Sydney is the most kind, professional, and detail-oriented catering sales manager and event coordinator and thanks to her, all our venue planning with Hampshire House was truly smooth sailing and stress-free. Sydney constantly kept us in the loop with next steps in our planning timeline, offering thoughtful recommendations and suggestions for our wedding (such as floral placements during our ceremony, order and timing of toasts/speeches, seating arrangements, the list goes on!) She kept in contact with all our vendors, always promptly responded to our many emails, walked us through all the steps during our ceremony rehearsal —somehow making it seem much less daunting, and on our big day Sydney seemed to always be one step ahead, preparing and leading us through every portion of our wedding timeline in such a seamless way. Lastly, since our wedding ended late into the evening, Hampshire House thoughtfully held on to and organized all our florals, and various wedding signage and other items so that we were able to return and pick it up at the venue on a following day. This made it so we didn’t have to worry about anything at all night of and could end our wedding day with the peace of mind that everything was taken care of. Truly, we cannot recommend Sydney and the Hampshire House enough and if we were to do it all over again, we wouldn’t change a thing!
Hampshire House was amazing!
We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Hampshire House and it was fantastic. It was everything we envisioned, only better. The venue itself is beautiful, and the location was perfect for guests who wanted to explore Boston. Being able to take pictures in the Public Garden after the ceremony was a real highlight. Our guests could not stop talking about how good the food was, and the staff were wonderful. We made use of both floors, which were perfect for our group of 60. Lindsay was awesome to work with. She was professional, responsive and a major part of making this a great experience for us. We had a ton of questions, and quite a few last-minute changes, and we really appreciated how helpful she was throughout the whole process. We highly, highly recommend Hampshire House. We had the night of our lives and are so very happy with how it turned out.
