GET MARRIED HERE! (and Tori is the best!)

We could not be happier with our choice to get married at deCordova. The staff are all so kind, helpful, and excited that you're getting married there! Events manager Tori is the most organized, dedicated, smart, and awesome human to work with. She had answers to every question during the walk-through, supported our vision, gave great advice about flow and use of the museum's spaces for our wedding. On wedding day, she literally crouched down next to my nephews who were very restless waiting for the processional to start and distracted them with a few blocks. Talk about a professional going above and beyond to be prepared for any situation! The deCordova is absolutely stunning, our photos came out incredibly, having the flexibility to be able to move inside/stay outside ended up being a game changer for us because the weather was iffy. It was such a highlight of our wedding day to take pictures while the museum was still open and get to see visitors enjoying their day, having a picnic on the lawn or viewing the art. The vibes and aesthetic are stunning and sophisticated without being uptight or stuffy. Loved it all and can't wait to visit every anniversary!

The Perfect Wedding Venue!

My husband and I cannot recommend the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum enough! It is such a beautiful and unique venue. We worked with Tori Nagle for over a year on our wedding and she is simply the best. Tori answered my (many, many) emails promptly and she was always so reassuring and kind. It ended up raining on our wedding day and we had to have our ceremony indoors instead of on the sculpture terrace, but thanks to Tori and her team we still had the perfect day! Thank you so much for everything!

Best wedding venue ever!

I am so thankful that I worked with the deCordova for my wedding. I always knew the setting was going to be beautiful, but what I didn't know going into our partnership was that they were going to be the best staff I had ever worked with for any event! Tori was so reassuring and knowledgable and fun to work with leading up to the wedding, and on the day of, our event manager Lindsay was the same way. Many people came up to us throughout the night to tell us it was the best wedding they had ever been to, and to tell us that everyone they spoke to at the museum was so kind. Thank you for everything!!
