Weddings, Showers, Rehearsal Dinners
Turn your wedding day into a wedding weekend!
Some of the best memories of a wedding happen before and after the ceremony itself — getting ready together in the morning, gathering family and friends for the rehearsal dinner, laughing over breakfast the next day, or simply having time to sit and talk with the people you love.
Harvard House gives you a beautiful, private weekend place where unforgettable moments can happen naturally.
Surrounded by peaceful wooded grounds yet conveniently close to Boston, Harvard House is ideal for intimate weddings and all the celebrations that surround them.
Robert, from the bottom of my heart, I can’t thank you enough for our wedding at Harvard House and all the help you gave us. It was a weekend I will cherish for the rest of my life.
Our weekend wedding at Harvard House united our family in ways that would never have happened at a hotel.
Make the celebration last longer!
Why limit your wedding celebration to a few hours?
Harvard House can become your home base for the wedding weekend — a place where family and close friends can gather, relax, and enjoy being together.
Host your:
Bridal or wedding shower
Rehearsal dinner
Bridal getting-ready gathering
Small, intimate wedding
Family gathering between events
Post-wedding brunch
A rehearsal dinner or wedding shower should feel personal — not like just another event in a function room.
At Harvard House, family and friends can gather in the house, spill out onto the porches and grounds, sit together over dinner, and linger over conversation.
The result is something much more relaxed and intimate: it feels like you’ve invited everyone into a beautiful home for the weekend.
The expansive grounds can also accommodate an outdoor or tented gathering.
Memories to treasure as you get ready together
The hours before a wedding can become some of the most memorable hours of the entire day.
At Harvard House, the bride and her attendants have room to get ready, talk, laugh, share a meal and enjoy the anticipation together — all in the comfort and beauty of a gracious home.
The house and grounds also provide wonderful settings for photographs before the ceremony.
We had so much fun getting ready, and then we simply walked out the door onto the beautiful grounds for the wedding.
Not just a wedding venue, but a weekend home
Harvard House accommodates up to 10 overnight guests, making it especially well suited for immediate family, members of the wedding party or several generations gathering for a wedding weekend.
There is a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable gathering spaces throughout the house, Wi-Fi, outdoor areas and plenty of places to sit, talk and simply enjoy being together.
Having my parents stay at Harvard House meant we didn’t just share the wedding with them—we shared the whole weekend. The quiet moments over coffee and breakfast became some of our favorite memories.
