Kelley H. Married on 08/01/2020Nothing compares to Thompson Island
We could not have found a better place for our August 2021 wedding than Thompson Island. Originally found on a list of "places to feel good about getting married at," we booked in 2019 for an August 2020 wedding that was cancelled because of the pandemic. Both Mary Kate and Denise were incredibly accommodating with moving our event to August 2021. The space itself at the pavilion is breathtaking, and the ceremony space is something our families cannot stop talking about. Knowing that everything from our vows to our Hora was in front of the Boston skyline secured us in our choice. The buffet had a vast variety of foods that accommodated every dietary restriction our guests had. The signature drinks were so popular that two bridesmaids asks bartenders for the recipes for their own weddings. On top of all this, there is nothing that can beat August heat like a calming sea breeze in the Harbor. Thank you Thompson Island for your fantastic customer service, outstanding location, commitment to your mission, and for an unforgettable wedding!
