Some places just really do it right. Boston Harbor Hotel is not only a beautiful location for a wedding, but the service is tops. Their wait staff is fabulous—total efficiency. I was shooting in the Wharf Room last Saturday, and the lighting on the tables was gorgeous.
And the cocktail hour on the balcony just outside, overlooking the harbor, as sunset approached… I can’t wait to go back!
Someone asked me this weekend where in Massachusetts I’ve enjoyed shooting the most. It got me thinking about my favorite wedding sites. Here’s a list, in no particular order:
The Log Cabin, terrific views from the side of Mt. Tom in Holyoke, MA. Has the added benefit of being only 5 minutes from my house!
The Gamble Mansion, at the Boston Center for Adult Education. A hidden gem across from the Public Garden, with a spectacular ballroom.
The Boston Harbor Hotel, elegance on the water.
The Cranwell Resort, Lenox, MA, a beautiful building and extensive grounds for photos. Enjoy a 60-mile view of the surrounding hills.
Elm Bank Reservation, Wellesley, MA, home of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society. Spectacular!
Lyman Estate, Waltham, MA, great old building (1793) with lots of room inside and out, and gorgeous landscaping.
