Located in Boston, MA, the Boston Children's Museum can function as a fun and unique Wedding Venue. It is situated along Boston's Fort Point Channel in the trendy Seaport District with beautiful views of the Charles River and the Cityscape. This venue is ideal for couples who enjoy a colorful and nontraditional vibe with the pairing of upscale and sophisticated cuisine.
The Science Teachers' Bureau established the Boston Children's Museum in 1913. Their aim was to provide a place where teachers and students could learn while advancing the field of science. Now, for more than a century, the museum has provided a space for young individuals to make discoveries for themselves, learn a new appreciation for the world, and develop foundational skills. The exhibits and programs are designed to facilitate learning through experience for children, but the museum also offers various programs suited to all ages.
Boston Children's Museum is an 88,000-square-foot venue with multiple spaces ideal for events. Couples can choose to host their wedding (or Pre & Post post-wedding events) in the Atrium, which features three-story glass walls that can open in nice weather. Through these massive windows, couples and their guests can gaze out at the Boston skyline, which helps to enhance any occasion. The wedding attendees can also enjoy the 13,000 square feet of plaza. With MAX Ultimate Food as our exclusive Caterer, prepare for a culinary adventure! Our Sales Team will work to make your vision a reality. Your guests can access the exhibits and be enchanted by the fun of our Bubbles room, to an adventure in Peeps World! Be it a simple gathering or an entire themed soiree, the Team at this Museum is eager to help you make it a success!

Great fun for kids of all ages. This was our second time visiting and even though my kids were older (9 and 11) they truly enjoyed all the exhibits!!! Making bubbles was their favorite.

We spent hours here and still didn’t get through everything. My 8 and 12-year-olds both found plenty to do, which is rare! The exhibits are clean, well organized, and thoughtfully designed for different age groups.
Highly recommend buying tickets in advance, especially on weekends. A must do if you’re visiting Boston with kids!
