Planning an Intimate or Tented Wedding at the Loring-Greenough House

Planning an Intimate or Tented Wedding at the Loring-Greenough House

The Loring-Greenough House offers two distinct scales: up to 50 for an indoor wedding and up to 150 for an outdoor tented celebration on its Jamaica Plain grounds.

The Loring-Greenough House offers a clear choice between an intimate house wedding and a larger tented event. The preserved Georgian mansion at 12 South Street accommodates an indoor wedding or reception for 50 people, while its landscaped grounds can host outdoor tented festivities of up to 150.

The setting is a historic property rather than a conventional ballroom: guests can use the decorated main-floor rooms, and the rental page identifies upstairs getting-ready and photography rooms. Rental income also supports the house and gardens’ preservation, which is part of the venue’s operating context.

Public materials do not establish a standard rain plan, dates, or a complete wedding total, so those details remain outside this research note.
