Anyone have recommendations for venues with a partial or fully outdoor space for a simple evening garden party/cocktail party wedding?
Our target area is metro-Boston or the South Shore/Southeastern Mass. Guest list ~100. Budget highly flexible.
We'd like to keep our plans simple - more like a cocktail party with dancing, where we either do the ceremony in the middle of the reception space/dance floor or in a different space nearby area on the same grounds. A large restaurant patio or some kind of garden/historical spot would probably work. I'd love to avoid a mega-venue.
Any thoughts from folks who've planned/attended this type of event? Thanks!
