Come take a look at what The Hub has to offer.
Wondering what kinds of bridal shower venues Boston has to offer? Well, Boston is a very charismatic city that has something for everyone, which is why it's the perfect place to start bridal shower planning. The Hub of the Universe, as it's known to locals, is full of surprises everywhere you turn. You can find amazing bridal shower venues in Boston that fit every taste and budget. And, with its seasonal New England weather, you'll be able to celebrate outdoors for most of the year.
Downtown, you'll find several districts, each with their own charm. The Financial District, for example, is home to some of the most luxurious places if you're looking for an upscale venue. Or you can head to the Boston Harbor for some spectacular locations on the water.
Here are just a few of our top recommendations to get you started. And if you're still on the search for more venue and vendor recommendations after perusing our favorite picks below, take a peek at The Knot Vendor Marketplace.
Central Wharf Co.
Located in the Financial District, Central Wharf Co. is all about the vibe. Exposed brick walls, lights hanging from ropes, and nautical decor that remind you you're at the waterfront, are just the start. The floor-to-ceiling windows light up the space during the day and give you a glimpse of the city at night. All of the food here is made with locally-sourced and homemade ingredients, and that's not all. There are three bars on two floors with craft beers and cocktails on the menu, and private spaces that can serve all your party needs, and then some. This Boston bridal shower venue requires a minimum of 30 guests for a private rental.

Hampshire House
Sometimes, you just need to embrace the classic feel and Hampshire House, located in the distinguished Beacon Hills region, is just the venue for that. The attention to detail inside, such as the brass chandeliers, oak bars, and a fireplace to warm up those chilly nights, truly define elegance. You'll feel like royalty, even if only for a day, as you gaze out the window at the gorgeous Boston Public Garden. There are two spaces available for rent, on the second and third floors, that can sit between 60 to 100 guests for a plated meal, and up to 200 for a reception-style wedding shower.
Revent Boston
Those who like a blank canvas to paint their wildest dreams on will love the creativity they can express at Revent Boston. There are two bridal shower venues in Boston, Massachusetts, one in the city and one in Norwood, which can seat 32 and 50 guests, respectively. When you rent the space, the venue provides the amenities you need to get started, such as tables, chairs, lighting and a kitchenette to prepare food. You'll also have access to the list of preferred vendors if you'd rather let someone else do all the work (we won't tell!). It's the perfect set-up when you want more control over the aesthetic.
Terra at Eataly
What could be better than sitting among a lush space, enjoying the classic Italian Greenhouse feel while the kitchen expertly prepares your meals in an open design? Not much can beat that! But that's exactly what you'll enjoy at Terra at Eataly, one of our top bridal shower venues in Boston, MA. When it comes to bridal shower food, the chefs here put seasonal ingredients to use, making powerhouse pasta and wood-fired pizza that will leave you wanting to lick the plate.

Once part of the trolley system of Boston's elevated railway, the building was built in 1911, but decommissioned just 60 years later.

Use the main level with its 34-foot tall ceilings and polished concrete floors for 50 or more people, or get intimate in the lower level, a space for gatherings of less than 50 guests.
