From the reviews
Went to a wedding here and I was shocked. Who knew about this little gem down in the Seaport? The entire venue is stunning, set back from a bunch of fish markets, you would never know it was there.
Had my wedding reception here. Beautiful place, great food and excellent service and free parking for guests! What more could you want. Of course my bride found this place and deserves all the credit!
Beautiful venue, fabulous food and an incredible staff to work with. My daughters wedding was perfect. The staff is gracious, friendly and professional. We worked with Alyson Frieda as the event coordinator and can’t say enough about the experience.
Plenty of parking and easy to find makes this place attractive. It's right on the water on Boston Harbor in the seaport District. The inside of the building is a throwback to the 1800's but it's merged with tremendous updated modern decor and is appointed really well. Fantastic place to attend an event.
Getting married at The Exchange Conference Center
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
