Beautiful, charming, and customizable!

I can't say enough great things about the Weymouth. The grounds are so beautiful and so picturesque for any event! We had our wedding just a few weeks after the hurricane - they had minor damage, but they did have several trees down and debris on the grounds. They assured me that it would be all cleaned up the day of the wedding and it was! Everything was so beautiful and they basically let you do anything you want with the grounds or the house within means. We used the front lawn and porch for cocktail hour and then I moved everyone to the back yard for a tented reception. I used a cleartop tent so that it wouldn't hide the beauty of the house. The whole evening was wonderful!

We had a perfect October wedding at Weymouth center. Alex + staff were great to work with and the grounds were in beautiful condition. Being able to get ready on the 2nd floor was very helpful and convenient. We used the lower gardens for the ceremony, the side of the house for cocktail hour, and a tent for the reception. Great venue!

This property is so gorgeous and provides a true southern wedding both indoors and outdoors. We held both our ceremony and reception at this location and could not be more pleased with the space and the flow of the entire night throughout the venue.

Greetings!

I would love to introduce you to this unique venue!

The Boyd House is the Georgian Manor-styled home of author James Boyd and his wife Katharine. It was build in 1922 and we are celebrating our centennial!

This historic home and its lawns make for an especially memorable event. With your rental for the day you and your party may use the first floor of the Boyd house plus the gardens and grounds.

Please give me a call for availability and lots more details. We book about a year out for the months of April - June, and September - November.

I look forward to chatting with you soon!

-Marianna
