We had our wedding at The Lenox Hotel on October 18, 2025, and I can honestly say it was the most magical day we could have ever imagined — all thanks to Katie Hellman and the incr...
edible Lenox team. From the very beginning, Katie made the entire planning process feel so seamless and stress-free. She is truly exceptional at what she does — organized, patient, and unbelievably kind. You can tell instantly that she genuinely loves her job and cares deeply about each couple she works with.
Katie guided us through every step with warmth and professionalism, answering every question (and there were many!) with enthusiasm and attention to detail. She went above and beyond to make sure our vision came to life perfectly — from the flow of the day to the timing of every little detail. The staff at The Lenox were equally amazing — friendly, attentive, and made our guests feel so well taken care of throughout the entire weekend.
We also had our engagement photos taken at The Lenox, which made everything feel so full circle. The timeless charm of the hotel, the beautiful architecture, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere created the perfect backdrop — both for that special moment and again on our wedding day. It’s such a meaningful place to us now, and we’ll always cherish the memories we’ve made there.
Our wedding day itself was absolutely flawless. Everything ran so smoothly that we were able to be completely present and just soak in every moment. It truly felt effortless, and that’s entirely due to Katie and the Lenox team’s incredible coordination and care.
It was a day we wish we could relive over and over again, and we’ll forever be grateful to Katie and everyone at The Lenox for making our dream wedding a reality. If you’re considering The Lenox for your wedding — do it. You’ll be in the best hands imaginable.

Katie was our wedding coordinator, and was incredibly professional, detail-oriented, kind, and overall the most accommodating person in helping us realize our wedding to its potent...
ial. She was attuned to our needs, and was cognizant of what needed to be done to achieve them, whether that was shifting and timing rooms for the food presentation, managing our vendors' equipment transport, and managing the on-site wedding to ensure all of our guests had what they needed. At the end of the day, she was just excited for us to get married, which was a wonderful thing. The Lenox itself was a gorgeous place, and fit entirely within the criteria of what we wanted (timeless, brick/colonial-inspired, attached to blocked hotel rooms for us and our guests), in addition to the beautiful dome room where our ceremony took place. The hotel rooms were spacious, clean, and well taken care of. The staff were very accommodating and kind, and took their excellent service very seriously, including recommending nearby hot spots and even deluging some details about the public library across the street! Overall, could not recommend Katie and The Lenox enough! We will treasure this experience.

We absolutely loved our Lenox wedding. I cannot recommend a hotel wedding enough--it is SO convenient to have the room block, ceremony, reception, and other events (we did an after...
party at Sweeney's Irish Pub) all in one place. The Lenox staff, including our coordinator, Katie, were all so kind. Katie helped answer our millions of questions and ensured that everything went smoothly on the wedding day. The Dome room was gorgeous and we received a lot of compliments on how intimate the space was without feeling cramped. It was the perfect size for ~100 guests (I wouldn't recommend much more than that though). We also heard from a couple of guests that the food was the best food they've had at a wedding. 10/10 would recommend this venue!

nox due to its stunning interior and central location; but what made it even better was the team we worked with. They handled every request of ours during the planning stage and made sure everything ran perfectly on the day. They also helped us with scheduling everything, even though our rehearsal dinner and reception were at different locations. The entire staff made us and our guests feel special all weekend. We received many compliments from our guests on the food and the service. On top of this, the all-inclusive and transparent pricing made planning easy. If you want a luxurious wedding in downtown Boston, this is one of the best deals you can find.

The Lenox Hotel is truly an iconic Boston hotel whose stunning architecture creates a picture perfect backdrop for a wedding. From the moment we began planning until the very last ...
guest departed, The Lenox delivered an experience we will never forget.
One of the biggest advantages of choosing The Lenox is the support of their talented catering and events team. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable about weddings and provided us with great templates and planning tools to ensure we didn’t miss a single detail. Their expertise in logistics and vendor coordination made everything seamless, from flower delivery to lighting setup to making sure our makeup artist found the right room on time.
The Lenox is also uniquely flexible in its offerings. Whether you are planning an intimate gathering or a large celebration, the team is resourceful and creative, tailoring every detail to fit your vision. They made the entire planning process stress free, especially when it came to organizing room blocks and reservations for our VIP family and friends well in advance.
As of July 2025, The Lenox partnered with the incredible Desert Works in Westwood for wedding cakes. This was a highlight of our planning process — we worked directly with their team on design and flavors, and the tasting was so much fun! In fact, The Lenox also provides a full menu tasting months before the event, allowing you to select dishes that your guests will love.
On the day of the wedding, the staff was by our side from start to finish. When we returned from the ceremony, they had refreshing beverages waiting for us, a thoughtful detail that meant so much. The service didn’t stop there: throughout the evening, they ensured everything ran flawlessly.
One of the most special perks of The Lenox is access to their roof for photos — a rare privilege in Boston. The skyline views made for an unforgettable first look and couples’ photos that we will cherish forever.
The food was absolutely outstanding. Our guests raved about the filet mignon and swordfish, which were both crowd favorites. We also had a Seafood Raw Bar featuring shrimp, lobster, and oysters — as fresh as if we had picked them up ourselves from the Boston wholesale market. It gave the entire evening that authentic hometown Boston seafood feel.
The venue layout is another standout feature. With everything on one floor, there’s no need to move guests between cocktail hour and reception spaces. The Dome Room is nothing short of iconic — spacious, elegant, and completely customizable with lighting and décor. We used the room across the hall for cocktails and a photo booth, which kept the reception space pristine and ready for the main celebration. Plus, with the second floor reserved exclusively for our function, there was no competing with other events.
From start to finish, the service was extraordinary — from the valet and front desk to housekeeping and the event staff. Every person we encountered was gracious, attentive, and professional, making our guests feel valued and cared for.
This entire experience was made possible by the incredible work of Katie Hellman! Katie, THANK YOU! You made this all possible!
I know I will never have another wedding, which makes me even more thankful that I chose The Lenox for mine. The combination of the classic Boston charm, unmatched service, iconic location, rooftop access, and flawless execution gave us an experience we will remember for a lifetime. I can’t wait to return in the future and relive the memories of the most perfect day of my life.

We are forever grateful that we chose the Lenox as our wedding venue. Our weekend was a dream come true for us and we heard rave reviews from our guests about their experience stay...
ing for the weekend -- all thanks to the Lenox team, especially Katie and Mara, who made the entire planning experience a breeze and allowed the weekend to flow seamlessly.
From the day we visited, it was immediately clear we made the right choice. Despite the fact that we were largely planning from out of state, Katie was incredibly responsive to our questions. Especially with the distance in mind, we cannot understate the value of everything that was included in the wedding package we chose. As we flexed from a planned ~120 guests up to 140, the team helped us envision how the space could work and partnered with our incredible vendors to map out a timeline for the evening. We held our ceremony at St Cecilia parish around the corner and planned an ambitious itinerary for our wedding day itself (including sunset rooftop photos!), and the Lenox team did not miss a beat.
Our food tasting was one of our favorite memories from our planning process and the kitchen team was super responsive to our requests and guests' dietary needs. And as the weekend itself arrived, we and our guests loved having the restaurants and bars on the first floor to gather and spend extra time together. From greeting friends and family in the lobby as they arrived for the weekend to our first dance under the absolutely gorgeous dome space in our reception, we know the memories from the weekend will stay with us for a lifetime. Most of all, we felt truly taken care of by the Lenox team throughout our weekend -- they were constantly 10 steps ahead, anticipating anything we might need and allowing us to be fully present with our guests. We are already looking forward to anniversaries and return trips to the Lenox - it forever has a special place in our hearts.

Our guests haven’t stopped talking about how beautiful everything was. If you're looking for a venue with an incredible team that genuinely cares, look no further. Thank you again to Katie and everyone who made our day so special—we’re still floating!

perfect. They took care of every detail — nothing was overlooked — and their thoughtfulness and professionalism made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free.
Kaite Hellmann was an absolute dream to work with. She supported us every step of the way with warmth, responsiveness, and genuine care. On the day of the wedding, everything ran like clockwork. The execution was flawless — from the timeline to the setup — and we didn’t have to worry about a single thing.
The food was phenomenal, beautifully presented, and delicious, even at scale (about 105 guests total). The team was just fantastic — so accommodating to guests' dietary needs and preferences, and the bar team was amazing, the drinks were a hit! All of the waitstaff during the event were attentive and kind, and the lobby staff went out of their way to help us with everything from parking to moving our things, before, on the day and even after.
As the bride, I kept waiting for that moment of wedding-day stress to hit, but it actually never came. The Lenox team brought every part of my vision to life with such care and ease that I was able to be fully present and just enjoy every second. We are so grateful to everyone at The Lenox — they made our day unforgettable, and we can’t recommend them highly enough!

Taylor Marshall Lima, who was our wedding coordinator at the Lenox, did outstanding work throughout our entire journey, from the day we got engaged through the day of our wedding. She is an amazing professional and we are extremely grateful that we had the honor of working with her. The day of our wedding we also had the pleasure of Emilee. She did an amazing job as well and worked together with Taylor to oversee that everything was running smoothly. We would definitely highly recommend them and The Lenox Hotel to others who are looking for a venue for any occasion, especially a wedding.

Special shout out to the valet team. They were so quick to help with all of our things, they did so, professionally and with care. They even remembered us as the bride and groom so all weekend we continued to get congratulations and well wishes from them. We also had our after party downstairs at Solas and it was great. It was so easy for everyone and it gave us the opportunity to extend the best night ever. Highly recommend The Lenox Hotel and Taylor!

This is all thanks to the folks at the Lenox who prepared an incredible wedding day for us. From the chic and classic vibes of the hotel, to the fact that they offer an newlywed suite on-site, everything went smoothly and without error!
Mara, the Lenox Event Coordinator, is my favorite person of 2023. She made our wedding absolutely spectacular. I knew we could trust her from our first meeting. She is communicative, understanding, and dedicated to making your day 100% perfect.

o day of and even after the wedding! Alison was our wedding coordinator and she was attentive, wonderful, detail oriented, a problem solver, and just truly went above and beyond to help us formulate our day. Ex. We got robbed 6k+ dollars 2 weeks before the wedding, in the middle of a cross country move, starting new jobs/getting a new place, had our socials/credit hijacked…and she helped us figure it all out; our only other option would have been to cancel the wedding last minute. The food was top notch and every single person we came in contact with made us feel special. Genuinely so kind and above and beyond that I had guests tell me they formed lifelong friends haha. The package they offer for weddings is unmatched. I know this, because I made an excel sheet of every all-inclusive vendor in the area that I spoke to directly. You can’t beat the price for what you’re getting. We have immense gratitude for all involved on our day and we plan to visit each year for our anniversary! When everyone had to checkout and leave, there was real sadness but also so much joy.

We also had our rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and after party in house and each event was raved about by our guests.

We held our wedding at The Lenox Hotel and it was the best. Decision. Ever.
From the initial tour of the venue, Mara Payne was beyond incredible to work with. It was clear from th...
e beginning that she is a pro at making the planning process a breeze, and making sure every opinion and dream from the couple is recognized. From customizing the design of our menu cards to match our invitations, to ensuring every single guest with a food allergy was taken care of, Mara went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of and no detail was forgotten.
Having so many things included through The Lenox was a huge perk and made the planning process so much easier. The Lenox Hotel's food is amazing- and we loved our private tasting picking everything out! We loved how easy it was to customize menu offerings to our liking and add-on additional entree options. Table linens (offered in a million colors) and chairs, menu cards, table numbers, the hotel suite for the night of the wedding, the wedding cake, even a wonderful piano player for cocktail hour are all included in the wedding package.
Dessert Works, the wedding cake provider, was absolutely amazing to work with (and the cake was delicious!) It was an easy process to customize the look and flavors of the cake. We also had Ben & Jerry's bring in a sundae station which was so much fun.
Mara helped us feel so at ease during planning that we ended up also hosting our welcome party downstairs at City Table the night before- another incredibly seamless event with great food and drinks!
The Dome Room is a beautiful space. It did rain the day of our wedding which made photo locations a bit tricky, as the surrounding area is largely uncovered. However, we made it work in large part thanks to the recommendations from Mara on photo locations.
Apart from the logistics/planning which were all seamless- the location in Boston, the rooms, the food and drinks, and quality of service are unmatched. City All our friends and family that stayed at The Lenox raved about their experience staying here. We feel like we struck gold finding the Lenox and hosting our wedding here- and advise any couples-to-be in Boston to choose it for their special day- you truly won't regret it!

The Lenox provided the best wedding we could have imagined.
Neither of us live in Boston. Planning a wedding remotely makes it harder, right? Not when you choose the exceptional t...
eam at the Lenox. Thank god it surfaced in our research. It was like finding a pure diamond in a stack of shiny jewels. Given the shockingly reasonable price, food selection, venue photos, wedding package perks, and ideal location, it didn't take long for us to choose them. One of the best decisions we ever made.
Alison was our wedding coordinator. She is a rock star who deserves to be paid like one. Her crazy workload had no effect on the attention to detail or level of care she gave us.
It was easy to customize our plans. Alison let us adjust the menu to reduce costs while still providing great food options. She accommodated every special feature we requested, even making a room available for a guest to use for breast-milk pumping during the wedding festivities!
Our first in-person look at the Lenox was the menu tasting. They instantly made us feel special, giving us a private room with our names on a gold plaque. The setup was classy and the food was delicious, down to the vegan risotto made special for my mother-in-law. And Alison displayed professionalism, warmth, and precision.
The wedding weekend was simply incredible. Alison asked us to list VIPs staying at the hotel. (We chose our parents.) Upon arrival, we found they were upgraded to corner rooms! And they upgraded our room for all the nights as well!
Staying at the Lenox is like getting your own urban castle for the weekend. There are comfy beds with welcome bags of chocolate truffles, bathrobes and slippers in the closet, awesome window views of Back Bay, and the stately lobby that we used liberally. It was also easy to store all the wedding decor that we brought. They even took flowers we brought back from our rehearsal dinner, stored them in the banquet fridge, and incorporated them into the reception! The service is high-touch. They even gifted teddy bears to my niece and nephew!
Alison was amazing. From the rehearsal to our packed day-of schedule, she kept things on time. On the wedding night, she found time to leave a congratulatory note in our room, with a picture she took of us that same night! She and the staff made us feel at home.
The Lenox has great facilities. The ceremony and reception are in the Dome Room. It's a beautiful setting, and dancing under the dome is a magical experience. We also had the elegant wood-paneled Board Room to get ready in. And the cherry on top: The newlyweds get the exclusive privilege of going to the rooftop (under the iconic Lenox sign) for photos. It has a sweeping view of Boston.
As for the food: It's fantastic. We had chicken and short rib options for the carnivores, both of which were hits. The biggest star was the wild mushroom ravioli, one of the best raviolis we've ever tasted. Whether vegetarian or not, we highly recommend. Perhaps the biggest food perk is that when you book a Lenox wedding, the wedding cake comes included - provided by Dessert Works, a local bakery that gets its own 5-star review from us.
The verdict is in: The Lenox nailed it. We had a world-class experience. This is a premium venue with premium service, and for weddings they clearly have the premium playbook.

She was truly amazing and it was a huge pleasure to work with her. I would recommend this venue to everyone. They are so accommodating and the food was absolutely amazing! Guests said it was some of the best wedding food they have ever had. All around this was the best experience.

I'm truly not sure I will even be able to find the words to adequately describe how happy we are to have chosen The Lenox for our wedding, but I'm going to try, ha! From our very f...
irst visit to tour the space, we were welcomed with smiles and kindness by team and felt right at home! As soon as I left from my first tour of the space in October 2019, we booked The Lenox as our venue!
Mara was our point of contact the entire way through, and she honestly feels like a friend at this point — that's how truly incredible it's been to work with her. Regardless of how silly they may have been, she answered every question and alleviated any concerns we had during the planning process.
Cue the COVID-19 pandemic, where my fiancé and I were separated by 3,000 miles (he was in London while I was in Boston), and he was quite literally banned from entering the USA. We knew our May 2020 wedding wouldn't be able to happen, and worked to come up with a Plan B. Mara and The Lenox team were nothing but understanding, accommodating, and kind, and offered comfort to us on some of our saddest, heartbreaking days. They were so understanding in fact, that they allowed us to postpone our wedding FOUR times in order to find a date where my fiancé and I were in the same country at the same time! While planning and waiting felt like an eternity, Mara and her team were there to offer their kindness and support whenever needed.
Fast forward to October 2022 when our dream wedding day was FINALLY able to happen, and let me tell you, it was a dream indeed. Every single detail was absolutely perfect, and Mara and The Lenox team were just INCREDIBLE. Somehow, every single detail we had discussed in 2019 and 2020 made their way to our 2022 wedding day— even some details I had totally forgotten about myself — and even labeling allergens in stationery and passed items during Cocktail Hour! It truly was the BEST day of our lives, and it was totally worth waiting for! Our families are still talking about how wonderful it was, and my grandparents have even said it was the best event they've been to in years! I know in my heart our wedding day wouldn't have been what it was if we hadn't chosen The Lenox, and we will forever be grateful to Mara and the team.
If you are considering booking The Lenox for your big day, this is your sign! Do it! We could not recommend The Lenox more!

Our experience at the Lenox Hotel was wonderful. It all started at the tasting where our wedding planner, Taylor, and the Lenox staff went above and beyond to make the event truly ...
special. From listening carefully to our requests to small details like seeing our name at the door entrance, it was a great experience. Fast forward to the wedding day - everything went smoothly. Taylor and her team took care of everything and checked in with the Bride and Groom to ensure that had what we needed. Taylor also thought 2 steps ahead and despite the wedding party being a bit delayed due to the Marathon Weekend, we stayed on track, readjusted our time clocks, and everything just worked with very little stress to the Bride and Groom. In addition, our guests gave us the most positive feedback after the event . The food was great! The staff was attentive and accommodating! We really can't say enough good things about our experience at the Lenox. If you are looking for a wedding venue in Boston, we highly recommend!

elegant and has the romantic vintage Hollywood vibe we were looking for. The entire Lenox staff was fantastic and offered the best hospitality we have ever experienced. Our wedding specialist, Taylor Marshall Lima, was amazing and guided us every step of the way from start to finish. She made planning and coordinating our wedding day easy and their inclusive wedding package was great. Our guests have also not stopped raving about how delicious the food was and the beautiful venue. We highly recommend!

I can’t say enough about The Lenox! This venue worked great for our 100 person wedding.
It is centrally located in downtown Boston, which is nice especially if you’ve got a lot ...
of people traveling in for the wedding. There are tons of great photo opportunities. Comm Ave and the Public Library are a short walk away and the hotel itself is a beautiful space for pictures. Having City Table and Solas right downstairs is good for rehearsal dinner/brunch/after party… whatever you need!
We loved how clear the pricing/packaging was and how much we got for our money. The cake is included and little details like chivari chairs and custom napkin colors are also included at The Lenox. Some other venues charge extra for the decor stuff. With the wedding, you also get a 1 night stay in a honeymoon suite on the same floor as the Dome Room where your reception (and in our case, ceremony) take place. This makes getting ready SO easy and helps the day run smoothly.
The entire Lenox staff is amazing, especially Taylor the on-site coordinator. She’s responsive and professional and really knows her stuff when it comes to weddings.
I highly recommend this venue!

Having our reception at the Lenox was the best decision we made for our wedding. Not only is it gorgeous and the food is great, but the service was unbelievable. I felt like Taylor...
was our partner in planning from start to finish and was just blown away with how patient, flexible, and detail-oriented she was. Our ceremony (separate venue) and trolley experiences were a little stressful, and I just felt so calm when I got to the reception because I knew they had everything handled.
Also, my mother got unfortunately slightly injured off-property two days before the wedding and they took excellent care of her. She still mentions it weeks later.

My husband and I got married at The Lenox Hotel on Halloween 2021. The planning of the wedding was made so much easier by our wedding coordinator Taylor Marshall-Lima. She was so h...
elpful, sweet, and incredibly responsive. Then it came to our wedding day and the hotel was just perfect. We opted to have all of our out of town guests stay there, we got married in the dome room, had dinner at City Table, and then my husband and I stayed in a suite there that night. I would not have had it any other way. It was so convenient, and everything was well planned and organized.
One of the best and most convenient things was the ability to choose a custom package with the hotel for the wedding that best suited our needs. In our case it was the Elopement package which allowed for us to have the small and intimate wedding of our dreams without paying a fortune.

There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am for both the Lenox and, in particular, Alison Majka! Being a Fall 2020 couple, we knew that we would need postpone our lar...
ge reception, but my fiance and I still wanted to keep our original wedding date and celebrate with our immediate families. After months of struggling to replan, we stumbled upon the Lenox's microwedding advertisement. Since our first call with Alison, we knew the Lenox was the way to go. She planned the entire ceremony and private dinner (with custom menu!) for us in just a few weeks. Alison made herself readily available and had wonderful suggestions. She was the point person for our vendors and families and truly served as Captain for the entire process. In the end, we didn't feel as though we had a "Covid wedding" - it became the wedding we truly wanted and had envisioned. Alison and all of Lenox staff made us feel so welcome and were always available for questions or just to check in. The health/sanitation adjustments the hotel has made are top notch, and we never felt concerned. Of course, the Lenox is a beautiful venue with amazing amenities and customizable options, but it is the staff that put everything over the top, and we are so grateful to them all.

CE The Lenox Hotel and staff gave us was what truly made our wedding weekend unforgettable. The moment we saw the Dome Room and met with the coordinators Taylor and Mara, we knew we were in good hands. They answered my (MANY) emails quickly and made what could have been a very stressful process fun! Mara was an absolute lifesaver the weekend of the wedding, coordinating with all my vendors, helping me with last minute projects, making sure everything transitioned smoothly, and most importantly- calming my nerves!! If something went wrong the day of the wedding- I didn't know it! All of the guests were raving after the wedding- the venue, the food, the drinks, the service- everything was SUPERB! I cannot imagine having a wedding anywhere else!

and that we were in great hands. Having our wedding there was the best decision we could have made. The team accommodated all of our requests and were so thoughtful and compassionate during the entire process. From the congratulatory flower arrangement they sent to our house after we booked, to the snacks and card they provided for us in our room after our wedding, they thought of every detail and went above and beyond making our experience with them perfect. The day went off without a hitch and it is in great thanks to their amazing team. Thank you Taylor, Allison and staff for all of the hard work that you put inti our day, you made it look effortless and I did not feel one ounce of stress. You guys are the best!

opped raving about the food, the atmosphere, the exceptional service and the overall feeling you get being in the hotel. Our wedding coordinator Taylor Marshall was everything your dream of in a wedding coordinator. She was there every step of the way and made sure everything was taken care of the second you needed it. She and I had countless emails back and forth, and she was always timely and helped out with whatever we needed. Every time we came to visit before the wedding she made it feel like home. The day of the wedding she helped keep me calm and checked every detail over. The best man lost a button on his shirt and she was able to even have that fixed in time. The vendors they recommended were also exceptional. The hotel is also dog friendly, so we were able to bring our dog Teddy for the weekend too, which made it all more sweet. I would recommend this venue to anyone. The rooms are absolutely stunning, and the vintage modern feel staying there is exactly what we were looking for and wanting for our guests. The dome room was beautiful. We had our dream winter wedding at The Lenox, and wouldn't change a single thing.
