This is one of Boston's BEST wedding venues! A true hidden gem! We attended a New Year's eve wedding at the 'GBH studios... For us it goes down as the most memorable venue of 2020,...
and certainly one of the best of all time! Sitting among family and friends in a working studio under the TV lights was a differentiator like no other! The classy decor selected by the bride mixed with the novelty of the room brought out an energy and glamor that you can't forget! We felt the spirit of old Hollywood in the heart of Boston! The modern and spacious gathering space outside of the studio provided a perfect setting for the cocktail hour, buffet, and late-night treats. One of the biggest decisions a bride has to make is choosing a venue that will be fun, warm, distinct, and talked about for years to come. This location has it! If you're looking for something truly unique in Boston be sure to visit this space. You'll be so happy you did!
