The Lenox Hotel is simply elegant. We fell in love with their ballroom the first time we entered it, and we never forgot it.
From what we could tell, neither will our guests. On top of the gorgeous dome room setting, which is perfect for wedding sizes around 100 guests, the food is terrific and the staff goes out of their way to please. They made it easy to have a wedding there, including EVERYTHING you can think of in their rate (including the pianist at cocktail hour, menu cards, gold chivari chairs!) so I had no work to do. They gave us a fabulous suite that night and our guests had reasonable room rates even though it was a busy holiday weekend. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a city venue that is gorgeous, friendly, tasty and flexible.
Ok, but you are here because you are a budget Boston bride, and you can’t imagine this being a budget friendly place. Well, it’s not, but it is not as much as other hotels in its class. As a point of comparsion, since the wedding was on a holiday, having a caterer & service staff for the same number of people would have been 50% more expensive, not including venue (and I would still need to do all the work of figuring out how many champagne glasses, spoons, etc – yech). Hubs and I decided that this was the one area we would not compromise, and thus, we stretched quite a bit for this venue, but it was truly memorable for everyone. My family still calls to tell me about how wonderfully they were treated there.
