Build a comparable shortlist
Separate the ceremony capacity from a seated reception with a dance floor.
For a venue outside Boston, compare the full address and transport arrangements with your ceremony location.
Compare catering, rentals and event access alongside the room rental; a published room capacity is not a complete wedding package.
Keep room rental, food and beverage minimums, service charges, rentals and accommodation separate when comparing proposals. This guide does not infer wedding prices from hotel room rates or unpublished packages.
