The Garden at Elm Bank

The Garden at Elm Bank at the Massachusetts Horticultural Society is a historical venue located in Wellesley, Massachusetts. Founded in 1829, it is the oldest, formally organized horticultural institution in the United States. As you can imagine, the property is the perfect backdrop for any size wedding. Couples will be surrounded by twelve different gardens on 36 lush acres. You can have a beautiful outdoor ceremony and then dance the night away in their restored carriage house. Just thirty minutes outside of Boston, the property offers twelve gorgeous display gardens and multiple event spaces to suit your event of virtually any capacity. Their variety of reception locations can accommodate seated or standing receptions of nearly any size. Whether you are looking to be exclusively indoors, outdoors, or a little bit of both, we are pleased to offer a variety of options. As guests arrive, they are guided through the wooded driveway which leads to their complimentary parking areas. Included in all rentals is use of the gardens for photography, cocktail receptions, and for guests to enjoy freely. The tranquil atmosphere will bring your guests together as they absorb the beauty of the gardens and our one-of-a-kind property in celebration of your event.
