    Magical historic venue in Boston.

    We recently held our wedding ceremony and reception at the Hampshire House in Beacon Hill. Sydney was the Catering Sales Manager who coordinated our event. When we were looking for a venue for our wedding it was important to us that the space felt like it had lots of character and enchantment. I wanted my guests to feel like they were being transported to another time and place and have a wonderful experience through the visual presentation. Upon touring the Hampshire House, we immediately fell in love with the sophistication of the old Bostonian mansion, the library with its wooden shelves and gorgeous fireplace, the warm and rich colors of the space with its ornate décor and intimate charm. The location is fantastic with the Boston Public Garden directly across the street which made for magical photos with the fall foliage. Hampshire House evoked the exact whimsical and romantic feeling that we were looking for. Sydney and her team worked diligently with us from the first steps of planning through scheduling, menu selection, rentals and coordination of vendor logistics with load in and out, etc. Sydney offered great insight and experience into the planning process and was there to make sure our big day was everything we could have dreamt of. I felt that the Hampshire House team thought of every detail to make us feel special and as for day of logistics, I was so pleased to find that they took care of essentially everything leaving no added stress to our day. They were very communicative and accommodating to our requests and even held on to some items for us that had been forgotten after the reception until we were able to come back to pick them up. The food was incredible, my guests are still raving about the decadent flavors and beautiful presentation of every item on the menu. The Hampshire House is a top notch venue with an incredible customer experience, do yourself a favor and book your wedding or special event with them!

    October Wedding

    We cannot say enough good things about the Hampshire House. We just had our wedding there on 10/12/24 and we still can’t believe how perfectly everything went. We were lucky enough to work with Victoria who went above and beyond to make sure every detail was exactly how we had imagined. From answering many, many, emails, to helping us with all of our decor, to making sure the day ran seamlessly. She was fantastic! All of my vendors were able to easily get in contact with her and set up the day of which eased the stress on myself and my family.
    That goes to say that everyone we worked with that day was also super friendly and extremely accommodating.

    The food was amazing. It was hard to narrow down our choices from the tasting because everything was so good. We worked with Dessert Works for our cake since they work directly with the Hampshire House and it was beautiful.

    We chose the Hampshire House because we wanted an intimate wedding (50 guests) and as soon as we saw pictures we knew it was the place. If you’re looking for a city wedding with a timeless and cozy feel, this is the place!

    Our dream wedding!

    We had the most magical day of our lives getting married at the Hampshire House in early May this year. Right from the get go, Hampshire House checked all our boxes when it came to what we were looking for in a wedding venue. It has that old New England charm, is located right next to the beautiful Public Gardens and is the perfect size for an intimate, small to medium sized wedding (we had 60-70 guests in attendance). Most of all, the food here is beyond exceptional and some of the best we’ve had. We are major foodies, and having food that was well-plated, generously portioned, and above all delicious and memorable was a high priority item for us.

    We were lucky enough to be able to work with Sydney Turnbull and the Hampshire house team. Sydney is the most kind, professional, and detail-oriented catering sales manager and event coordinator and thanks to her, all our venue planning with Hampshire House was truly smooth sailing and stress-free. Sydney constantly kept us in the loop with next steps in our planning timeline, offering thoughtful recommendations and suggestions for our wedding (such as floral placements during our ceremony, order and timing of toasts/speeches, seating arrangements, the list goes on!)

    She kept in contact with all our vendors, always promptly responded to our many emails, walked us through all the steps during our ceremony rehearsal —somehow making it seem much less daunting, and on our big day Sydney seemed to always be one step ahead, preparing and leading us through every portion of our wedding timeline in such a seamless way.

    Lastly, since our wedding ended late into the evening, Hampshire House thoughtfully held on to and organized all our florals, and various wedding signage and other items so that we were able to return and pick it up at the venue on a following day. This made it so we didn’t have to worry about anything at all night of and could end our wedding day with the peace of mind that everything was taken care of.

    Truly, we cannot recommend Sydney and the Hampshire House enough and if we were to do it all over again, we wouldn’t change a thing!

    Our Dream Wedding

    We had an absolutely gorgeous Sunday Brunch Wedding at the Hampshire House on June 2nd, 2024. Leading up to the wedding, my husband and I had the pleasure of working with the literal PRO, Lindsay Beshero. Lindsay very kindly exchanged a total of 85 emails with us to answer every single one of our questions, concerns, and last-minute changes. We adore her. On our wedding day, Alyssa Bourgeois made sure we had a seamless afternoon: from personally helping my MIL go to and from the 4th floor to change her shoes, to packing up huge containers of food for us to enjoy later in the night. The entire HH team truly made our day magical, and we are so grateful for each of them.

    The venue is beautiful and intimate. My husband and I also had our first look at the Public Garden, which was obviously gorgeous. Our photographer (Joe Gonzalez-Dufresne) was able to take us around Beacon Hill to grab extra photos during the downtime of our wedding -- all of these beautiful locations were an extremely short walk around HH.

    Finally - the food. As soon as we walked into the Baker Bar for cocktail hour, our guests (who were of course all indulging in mimosas) immediately started telling us the hor d'oeuvres were the best they'd ever had (lots of raving over the chicken & waffles!) The HH staff approached my husband and I quickly with our own plate of food (again, they're amazing). Then for our reception, BRUNCH. It was all so delicious!

    Overall, we cannot recommend the Hampshire House enough. Lindsay helped us plan our dream wedding within a budget we were comfortable with. The staff are incredible. The venue is gorgeous. The nearby parks are great photo ops. The food is freakin' amazing. Thank you so, so much HH team for helping us have the literal best day EVER!

    Exceptional!

    Hampshire House was the perfect setting for our 50-person afternoon wedding - and Syndey Turnbull was the BEST coordinator ever! She was super helpful at every step of the way, never pressured us into anything and reassured me whenever I was anxious about our time crunch (we started planning in January and got married in March!). Cannot recommend enough. All of our guests say they had a fabulous time and raved about the food and the service.

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Erin & Greg - It was an absolute pleasure working with you to ensure you could still have your dream wedding! Wishing you both great health and happy memories in 2024!

    Congratulations again,
    Sydney

    Magical Wedding Experience

    Planning a wedding remotely is stressful. However, Sydney Turnbull at The Hampshire House was able to make it a stress-free experience for us. The day was magical. The food was outstanding. Our guests commented on the exceptional service and quality of the food. Sydney is a great listener and was able to guide us on the many choices available and exceeded our expectations.

    Most incredible wedding

    We could not have asked for a better wedding. Sydney and her entire team did an incredible job. The location was beyond perfect, staff incredibly knowledgeable, talented and kind. The food was out of this world. If you are looking for the best place in Boston to get married or host an event look no farther.

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! It was such a pleasure getting to know you both through the planning process and see it all come together! Congratulations again and I hope you're off to a great new year!

    Best wishes,

    The Perfect Boston Wedding Venue

    The encyclopedia entry under “Professional” should simply be a description of Sydney Turnbull, who from beginning to end was invaluable in helping us plan our wedding reception at Hampshire House. A beautiful venue, a perfect night, delicious and well-presented food and drinks, but more than all this: the team of Hampshire House staff members ensured that our guests were comfortable, that we had time to ourselves on our special day, and that everything transitioned seamlessly throughout the night. There were times when it seemed as if Sydney had some magical power, anticipating our every need before we even knew we needed something! Her communication from the getgo was fast and efficient and her years of experience in the wedding/event industry shone through in everything she did.

    If you are looking for an intimate, classic Boston wedding, Hampshire House needs to be on your short-list. After all, it’s one of the only places in the city which was intentionally built and designed for hosting weddings. The food here is delicious, the menu options are various, and the bar/liquor options leave nothing to be desired. The option to use both the second and third floors broke the evening up in really nice ways, and allowed our guests to “explore” more of the venue space and see the sunset over the Public Garden from one of the best positions in the city.

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Haley & Finnegan, Thank you so much for the kind words. It was my pleasure to work with you both and make the magic happen! Thank you so much for sharing such a momentous occasion with us. - Sydney & The Hampshire House

    The most amazing venue with incredible staff

    Hampshire House was a dream!! All our guests raved about how beautiful the venue was and how delicious the food was. The location is also amazing- we did our photos in the public garden, on comm ave, and around beacon hill which all turned out beautifully! On its own, Hampshire house is an amazing venue, but what really made it incredible was Sydney (venue coordinator). Sydney was so incredibly helpful from the very beginning all the way up to the day of. Sydney was with us for every part of the planning process and truly made our vision come alive. She patiently answered all my millions of questions and never made me feel dumb for asking. She quelled all my anxieties and truly went above and beyond to make sure our day was absolutely perfect!! If you go with Hampshire House and work with Sydney know that you are in amazing hands and will be so well taken care of. They didn’t miss a single detail!! 10/10 could not recommend Hampshire house enough!!

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Absolutely incredible experience

    My partner and I had our wedding reception at the Hampshire house and I cannot imagine a better experience. From the very first email and call with Michele to the day of, they were caring, attentive, warm and personalized. The venue is beautiful, you barely need decorations since the place itself feels magical. Our guests told me that it was one of the most beautiful venues they had attended. The food is incredible also. And it was so nice to have food, linens, tables, etc completely taken care of for us. The day of was a complete dream and Michele helped us with so many last minute changes and personally helped with laying our cards. One example of absolutely incredible and above and beyond service - during the reception I was making my rounds to different tables and brought my food with me. Within 10 seconds Karim had brought me a chair to sit and fresh napkin and water. The guests themselves were blown away with the level of service. We had some non traditional elements at our reception and Michele not only allowed but was enthusiastic about them. I wish that every person could have the experience we did. Please book them for any part of your wedding, it is guaranteed to be magical!

    Anna, thank you for taking the time to write such a kind review, it has been an honor to work with you and help to personalize your wedding celebration.

    Wonderful wedding celebration

    We recently celebrated our small wedding at the Hampshire House and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. From start to finish, the entire experience was outstanding, thanks to the exceptional professionals at Hampshire House and our incredible event coordinator, Sydney. The staff’s attention to detail and commitment to excellence ensured that our wedding day was nothing short of magical. We were particularly impressed with how seamlessly the operations were executed - big thank you Karim!! From coordinating vendors to managing the flow of the event, everything was executed with precision. The catering was excellent, with delicious food and impeccable service provided by the staff. Our guests were not only impressed by the beautiful venue but also by the level of service they received throughout the evening.

    Sydney is a true gem and has been an absolute pleasure to work with! From our initial visit to the wedding day, Sydney exhibited a level of professionalism, expertise, and effectiveness that made the entire process smooth and stress free. Sydney - you saved us many countless hours of planning!!! Your willingness to go above and beyond, even recommending last minute makeup artists, truly made a difference in bringing our vision to life!

    The Hampshire House, with its historic charm, elegant ambiance, and a beautiful grand piano, provided the ideal setting for our celebration. The venue’s two levels offered wonderful sunset views over the Public Garden and a seamless transition between cocktail hour and reception. The investment in Hampshire House and its exceptional team, with their top-notch service and delightful cuisine, is undeniably worthwhile for any event. We were so glad we got to celebrate our wedding here and we would choose the Hampshire House again in a heartbeat! Photos are by the talented Nicole Chan!

Sydney was lovely, helpful, extremely professional and organized. We are so lucky to have had her manage our event and would highly recommend to any couple.

    Highly Recommend Hampshire House

    We had a beautiful wedding day at the Hampshire House. Lindsey made the entire experience a breeze and we could not have been happier with the results. The venue is gorgeous and the food was outstanding. The wedding party and all of the guests had a great experience. I could not recommend it more highly.

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Thank you for the kind words Megan - it was truly a pleasure working with you and Mike on your special (and fun Cinco de Mayo) day!

    Warm wishes,
    Lindsay

    Everything was perfect!

    We are beyond delighted with *every* aspect of our wedding at Hampshire House! Lindsay is extraordinary and gladly assisted with all of our changes - late appetizer switches, seating changes, music changes just a week before the ceremony, adding in a random pre-dinner presentation my mom wanted, yet everything was seamless and dreamy. We didn't really need to do anything on the day of, it all just magically happened perfectly and smoothly with the staff managing every aspect without us even seeing it. The space is gorgeous, unique, and memorable, the Public Garden is right across the street for stunning photos, and the food....my gosh, THE FOOD! Our wedding was in April and when we saw guests at a 4th of July party they were still raving about the food, especially the tenderloin and the flambe station we added on. Hampshire House was more affordable than several other venues we looked at (once we factored in the cost of renting china, outside catering, etc. at our other venues) yet the quality of the service and the food was far superior from Day One. We included the upstairs Thayer Room for our ceremony which we're glad we did, so that guests could immediately sit downstairs without waiting for the Library to be turned over. Also recommend renting chairs, it didn't add much to our overall cost but looked so lovely. We would recommend Hampshire House in a heartbeat to anyone. Our wedding was gorgeous, memorable, fun (such wonderful nighttime photos with the Cheers sign outside!), and everything we possibly could have hoped for!! We honestly can't wait to go back for the special dinners that they have throughout the year just to relive the most beautiful day of our lives.

    Thank you so much for your kind words Lauren! We are so glad you chose The Hampshire House for your special day - everything was absolutely gorgeous! We look forward to welcoming you back anytime. Many well wishes to your future together!

    The Dream Wedding Venue

    Hampshire House was mine and my husband's dream venue. The grounds are gorgeous; they simply cannot be beat. One of the things we loved the most about this unique space was the food offering. The moment we saw the menu, we were blown away. Our guest still rave to this day about how amazing their experience was, especially how outstanding the food items were. The passed hors d'oeuvre were exquisite, the first course was executed perfectly, and all entrees were cooked to perfection. What's even more amazing is the staff at Hampshire House, especially Michele. We began to plan our wedding 2 years out. Michele was with us for the entire 2 years, even when it was unnecessary at times. The teams is efficient, accommodating and so professional. There was never a time that I needed anything. I struggle now to put into words, just how absolutely perfect Hampshire House is. Our wedding was such a dream come true, and it would have not been possible without Hampshire House!! 100/10 perfection!

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Jenna. We genuinely appreciate the positive feedback and are so glad we were able to create fond memories for you and your guests! Many well wishes to your future. Thank you again for choosing The Hampshire House!

    Timeless wedding venue with outstanding staff

    We selected the Hampshire House for our wedding, because we loved the feeling of celebrating in an old-style mansion. The ceremony, dinner, and dancing were all held in the massive library, and it was gorgeous. They had fully working fireplaces for our cold November wedding, which really set the mood. Probably more importantly, the food was outstanding. Our family and friends are all foodies, and if the food was bad, we would have heard about it until the end of time. Instead, people could not get over how amazing both the cocktail hour food was, but also the dinner hour.

    While the space was stunning to begin with, one of the main considerations in picking this venue was the staff. Everyone was so helpful and attentive to our needs right from the start. They made the whole experience as stress free as possible. The Director/Coordinator, Michele Giacomozzi was amazing. She was always there to answer any questions we had or offer any help she could. Michele did an outstanding job the day of, left us feeling stress free and allowed us to live in the moment.

    We had so many compliments afterwards about the food, the beauty of the space, and especially the stunning views of the public gardens. We could not have imagined a more perfect day.

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words Angelique - we truly appreciate the feedback. It was an honor to host your special day and we are so glad it was memorable! Thank you again for choosing The Hampshire House and many well wishes to your future!

    Hampshire House, Boston

    I cannot say enough how wonderful my wedding was at the Hampshire House. The rooms are gorgeous, the beautiful Boston Commons right across the street for photos was a dream come true. Michele my wedding planner at the HH couldn’t have been better. Professional, calm, and so easy to deal with. My guests are still talking about it. I have dreams of their spring roll appetizers, so good. If you want a Boston wedding, the HH is the place. My wedding was 10/8/22

    Late Summer Wedding

    We had our wedding at the Hampshire House in September with about 75 guests. We worked with Michele G. who was extremely attentive, professional, and answered all questions, big and small, in the time leading up to the event. Her expertise was apparent on the day, when everything came together exactly as we wanted. The space is incredibly beautiful and has a classic New England feel. Gorgeous views of the Public Garden.

    Hampshire House's reply:

    Thank you for your extremely kind words Michael. We are so glad you chose the Hampshire House for your special day. We appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best in your future!

    Stunning Venue - Amazing Staff

    Mike and I had our wedding reception there 9/10/22. I apologize for writing this review so late. The entire experience was flawless.

A true Boston historic site with with an element of luxury and service that was top notch. Thank you Hampshire House for all that you do and preserving this historic site.
