The Garden at Elm Bank

A 36-acre garden that's ready for your vision to come to life! Beautiful floral and botanical spaces create both open and intimate settings for your wedding, corporate event, or social gathering — less than 20 miles from Downtown Boston. Featuring historic estate architecture among modern and traditional landscapes, this unique indoor/outdoor venue is an unforgettable and one-of-a-kind setting! Our property features twelve beautiful display gardens and several event venues to accommodate events of any kind. Almost any size wedding can be held in one of our several reception settings, which can accommodate seated or standing parties. We provide a range of options for you, whether you want to be completely indoors, completely outside, or a little bit of both. Massachusetts Horticultural Society, formed in 1829, is the country's oldest formally structured horticultural organization. Many aspects of our location at The Garden at Elm Bank are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Our land is the ideal backdrop for any event, whether you want to include our history or simply have a unique setting. All event rentals at the Garden at Elm Bank include access to all of our twelve display gardens. For our late afternoon and evening rentals, we take pride in presenting only one event on the property at a time, allowing for the most private experience imaginable. We urge you and your guests to explore and make the most of every minute while on the site, whether they arrive early, want to meander through the areas during cocktail hour, or want to take advantage of our many photo opportunities. We invite you to explore our indoor and outdoor event spaces in our gallery and inquire about your special event today!
