Just Perfect

So happy we picked The Liberty Hotel for our wedding day. From the day we went to toured the venue and met Ashley, our coordinator, we knew we would be in good hands. This venue pays attention to all details and truly allows you to make your day the way you envisioned it – service is on point, you feel as if you’re the only couple they are dealing with. We originally planned to be married in January but due to covid we switched and thankfully that was so easy! Ashley and her team worked out all different ideas with us to keep things covid friendly, but also make it our own. Ashley even took time out of her busy schedule to help me with prepping prior. The Liberty gives the couple the Charles River Suite which is breathtaking for the day/night, and the guys were able to hang there all day to get ready. They set up a second room for the bridal party with a full-length mirror, chairs, tables – made it our own private little getaway. From there Ashley guided and watched over us all day, lots of texting and quick responses from her. The ceremony was in the yard and set up perfectly, cocktail hour on the rotundas and reception in ballroom – great use of all space for us and the guests. Our guests are still raving about the food, literally told us, “best wedding food ever!" Your guests also can come early and have a drink or lunch at one of three restaurants, many of ours did. The venue itself is the best for pictures and easy walk to Beacon Hill. The whole vibe is just amazing. Our day ended up perfectly – on schedule, no hiccups, beautifully done = just what any bride/groom would want!

Perfect venue.

The liberty was quite literally, the perfect venue. The catering manager, Ashley Beck, made everything so easy from start to finish, and is truly a joy to work with. The actual venue speaks for itself - it's incredible. The food was far and away the best food we've ever had at a wedding (it's truly high end restaurant quality), and the staff are top notch.

An awesome venue for diverse portraits

I'm a Boston wedding photographer, and having photographed at the Liberty several times, I wanted to share some of the reasons why I love photographing there.

I can get a diversity of photographs so quickly because there are so many beautiful spaces within close reach. The courtyard has this cool green oasis vibe, and when the sun sets, there's a beautiful glow. Just over the bridge is the Charles River, and I love the docks and the Esplanade views. Even the bridge itself is gorgeous! The brick inside of the building is remarkable - and so Boston. Then, I can get a little edgy with portraits by the stone work around the corner from the hotel as well as inside of the hotel with the jail cell bars.

I've always had an amazing time photographing here, and I wanted to thank the venue staff for always being so dang organized, kind, and meticulous. :)
