Affordable Weddings Weddings North of Boston Massachusetts (MA)

You want a wedding that is affordable – but one that your guests will remember for a lifetime. They can do that at the Concord Museum, an unforgettable venue that is ideal for small weddings. Only 30 minutes from Boston, in the town that launched the American Revolution, the newly redesigned museum’s natural beauty and historic significance (guests can stroll through galleries containing, among other remarkable objects, the Paul Revere Lantern and Henry David Thoreau’s desk) will provide a memorable wedding day. The brand new Lyceum is a charming site for ceremonies and receptions, and the museum has an exclusive list of caterers to choose from as well as an experienced function professional to help plan all the details and to be there on your big day.

If you are thinking about an elopement or a smaller wedding, consider the Harbor Light Inn, two combined Federalist mansions nestled into the historic downtown area of scenic Marblehead. The elegant inn is a lovely site for your celebration, with up to 30 guests, or as an inviting retreat for guests attending a celebration and reception in town. The inn’s concierge can help with details from flowers and photography to catering menus and yacht rentals! And guests can stay in comfortable rooms with working fireplaces, jetted spa tubs and finely tooled furniture reflecting the inn’s 18th century roots. There’s a popular, intimate tavern, and outdoor pool and nearby activities from sailing charters and paddle boarding to historic sites, museums and parks.

Celebrate your love and your new life together in the heart of it all at the Salem Waterfront Hotel & Suites. Let this charming hotel by the water on Pickering Wharf, a short stroll to vibrant downtown Salem, serve as your destination wedding location while staying within your budget. Experienced staff will help with all the details, from choosing mouth-watering meals to deciding on entertainment, decor and flowers from a preferred-vendors list. Ceremony and reception venues include outdoors under a grand arch overlooking Salem Harbor, or on the wharf’s Ceremony Green. Indoor venues include the hotel’s Compass Room and the exquisite Maritime Ballroom with crystal chandeliers. The hotel offers discounted room blocks for your overnight guests and several wedding packages to choose from.
