We had our wedding at the Wyndham Hotel Beacon Hill on December 1, 2018. This was the first AND LAST venue I looked at before we booked. The reason I didn't look further was because of Paul, the wedding coordinator. Being your atypical bride, (...I didn't have a childhood dream of being a bride so I had nothing "in mind") I was nervous that I would be judged and eventually persuaded into doing things I didn't truly want. Paul was awesome. I felt like we had known each other for years after only a few minutes of chatting. He was patient, non-judgmental and most importantly he listened to my ideas even if he might have thought I was crazy...he just let me be me, and didn't flinch when I told him "no cake, no first dance, no sweetheart table"... he was the best. We booked in February and the experience throughout was seamless and easy.
Our wedding day was hands down the best day of our lives to date. The ballroom is on the 15th floor of the hotel and the views are spectacular! Floor to ceiling windows made it feel like we were right in the midst of the beautiful Beacon Hill lights. An added bonus being it was Christmas time and several of the buildings in the distance had sparkling holiday lights to add to the beauty of the view. The hotel itself also was decorated for Christmas, which worked well for us seeing that we both love Christmas decorations!
Paul lent us his homemade altar to use for our ceremony, which really put a fancy touch on our very simple ceremony. He was so patient and kind to my niece and nephew, a 9 year old flower girl and a 7 year old ring bearer. He was right there for everything...helping the vendors, guiding guests, straightening bow ties, making sure the music was right and ensuring the ceremony went off without a hitch!
Paul did an amazing job bringing our "vision" to life.The ballroom was set up exactly how we discussed. Centerpieces were perfect, lighting was just right and the our guests were comfortable from start to finish.
As a wedding venue we couldn't fault anything. The food was out of this world and all our guests commented on how delicious everything tasted. From the passed crab cakes and sesame chicken skewers during cocktail hour, to the amazing Filet Mignon, everything was perfect.
We danced the night away, with the Boston skyline behind us. We are still getting phone calls and notes from guests saying it was "the best wedding they had ever been to!" It truly was a perfect evening, thanks to Paul and the rest of the staff at the Wyndham. We couldn't have asked for a better venue, and feel so blessed to have had Paul running the show!
