Hampshire House - Boston, Massachusetts

The 3rd floor of the Hampshire House was a perfect spot for my birthday party ... spacious enough to move around, but still felt intimate. The staff was fantastic, the spaces were gorgeous, and everyone loved the food. Working with Sydney Turnbull as my event manager was fantastic ... she legit made everything easy and was incredibly accommodating. I highly recommend.

We had both our wedding ceremony and reception at the Hampshire House, and it was truly a magical experience. The beauty of the venue is undeniable, and it was the perfect setting for our 90ish-person quintessential-Boston wedding. What truly set the Hampshire House apart was the exceptional staff. Michele and her team were incredible throughout the planning process, from the delightful tasting to the day-of coordination. The team collaborated well with our wedding planner and other vendors. The staff, including the cooks, bartenders, and reception team, everyone, were all so welcoming and helpful. They made us feel incredibly welcome and helped with every aspect of the planning. We highly recommend the Hampshire House for anyone looking for a stunning venue with a dedicated and caring team!

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!

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Hampshire House, and it was absolutely magical! The venue’s classic New England charm, with its stunning wood decor and proximity to Boston Common, made it an ideal setting for our intimate wedding. Every detail was flawless, thanks to the incredible support of Sydney Turnbull, our sales manager and wedding coordinator. Sydney is a true gem—professional, warm, kind, and exceptionally knowledgeable. She went above and beyond, guiding us through each step with ease, from helping us choose the perfect chairs to coordinating seamlessly with our vendors and guests. Her dedication and support made the planning process smooth and stress-free.
The food was also outstanding, especially the sea bass and chocolate raspberry cake, which our guests raved about. We received so many compliments on both the delicious dishes and the excellent service. We are so grateful to Sydney and the Hampshire House team for creating our dream wedding day. Thank you for making our celebration unforgettable!

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!

We were lucky to be invited to an intimate wedding at this venue. It has classic New England charm, with beautiful art, high ceilings and elegant woodwork. The food was pretty good for wedding food. They surprisingly had enough space to make a small dance floor, which we took advantage of dancing the night away.

From beginning to end, Hampshire House and Lindsay were so easy to work with. At the start of our wedding planning adventure, there was so much stress around all of the little bits and pieces we would need to get this event together. As soon as we reached out to Hampshire House - oh, it was great. They take care of it all and the quality is exceptional.

Hampshire House delivered on food. They delivered on ambience. They delivered on professionalism and service. They delivered on drinks. Our guests have described our wedding as magical, unique, cozy, beautiful, warm, well organized. All things we wanted and looked for in a venue. We are so happy with our decision to work with the team at Hampshire House. Thank you Lindsay and team for having things run so smoothly.

Hampshire House is the venue to book if you’re looking to deliver a beautiful and memorable Boston wedding. We had a winter wedding and couldn’t be happier with our decision. Photos by Silver and Salt Photography.

Visiting from the UK, we booked Thanksgiving lunch well in advance as this was a recommendation.
The venue is very classy, beautiful setting for a wedding and indeed for lunch.
The staff were a letdown, the lady on reception was surly to the point of rude and very bizarre, but our waiter went off with one of our credit cards, not just to take payment but literally walked off without returning it.
Food was 'good' but would have expected elevated presentation from a venue of this distinction.
