Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor

I cannot say enough good things about this venue and the phenomenal service and wedding coordinators. I got married at the Hyatt on July 3rd. This venue was a referral from a friend who got married here a few years back. He urged us to just go look at it even though we were pretty set on another venue. From the outside (front) of the hotel, it doesn’t look like anything special, but as soon as you walk in, you have the best, most breath taking view of the Boston skyline. Pictures seriously do not do it justice so I also urge you to go in and see it for yourself!!
We worked with Ashlynn as our Hyatt coordinator who is a saint and a dream to work with. She was so responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. My wedding day turned about to be extremely rainy. Ashlynn took me through the hotel to scope out inside photo locations since we were originally planning to do everything outside. I think she could tell how bummed out I was about the rain. Once I went back to the getting ready room, she came in a few minutes later with 4 different wedding albums that showed examples of other couples who had a rainy wedding day and all the beautiful pictures they still got. It immediately changed my mood and I was so grateful that she did that. Ashlynn and Steph (the other awesome coordinator) continued to check in with us all day, made sure everyone was on time and stayed in the loop. When the weather cleared to a light drizzle for just a few minutes, we ran outside to get pictures. Ashlynn was right there with us, holding the umbrella for us and getting rained on just so we could get some outdoor shots. Again, the service was incredible and Ashlynn was an absolute dream to work with.
During the reception, the reception staff were also incredible. I didn’t go to the bar once-as soon as my drink was almost empty, a reception staff member was handing me a new one. In addition, many people came up to me during and after the wedding and raved about how good the food was! During the reception, it really started down pouring but we were lucky enough to still have fireworks on the harbor that night (Boston Harborfest is usually held on the Saturday before the 4th). Again Ashlynn and Steph were running outside with us and our photographer, both of them getting drenched in rain and holding the umbrellas for us, just so we could get some epic fireworks shots. I cannot say enough good things about them!!
We loved the Hyatt because we could do everything onsite and stay there-ceremony, reception, and they even give you an after party room until 1:30 am.
The best part might be the honeymoon perk. When you get married at a Hyatt, they give you a bunch of Hyatt points to use towards your honeymoon. The real trick is to open up a Hyatt credit card and put all your wedding payments on that card because spending at a Hyatt gives you triple points or something like that. I also then used it was my main credit card after I opened it to maximize points. We had enough points for a 2 week stay at the Hyatt Andaz in Maui!! I don’t know of another venue where you can also get a free honeymoon if you work the points right! We are already planning our 1 year anniversary at their locations at the amalfi coast and again, will not have to pay for that hotel.
Again, I cannot recommend this venue enough. We looked at so many venues and I am beyond happy we went with the Hyatt!
