    What an Elegant and gorgeous wedding venue! The view overlooking the city during the day and at night was stunning. The venue was 2 story which allowed for a fantastic view of the banquet room. The upper level was where the pre-wedding cocktails/appetizers were served and photos with bride and groom. Then we made our way to the lower level for the start of the wedding and bride and groom's entrance. The food was delicious and so were the drinks. The restroom was well maintained as well. It was as dreamy wedding with such a breathtaking venue to dance the night away. Would love to be back for another wedding here in the future!

    The State Room was the exact venue we imagined. We visited 10+ venues in the greater Boston area knowing that we wanted an indoor venue with beautiful views of either the water or the city-scape. We did our due diligence but once we saw the State Room, we knew it was the one. As others have stated, the views are unmatched. Their professionalism through the sales process, gave us 100% confidence we were in good hands up to and through our wedding day. Another deciding factor was that the cost fell into our perfect median in comparison to venues of the same measure. The reason for this positive review is because of the follow-through to achieve our dream wedding. No detail was left uncovered. Food was very important to us, and the menu and the quality of the food is again unmatched in comparison to other venues and is on par with great restaurants around Boston. We loved it at the tasting, but what is most impressive was their ability to execute for a reception of 175 guests, with the same excellent presentation and taste. Our coordinator, Amanda was not only a get-shit-done kind of gal which I appreciated, but was also organized, responsive to my emails (which there were a lot) and I always felt that we were on the same page in terms of style and delivery. The wedding day was the culmination of our hard work. The food was great, the views were breathtaking, and the event design was just as my Pinterest page had pictured. Amanda was solution-oriented for all my desires without breaking the bank. For example, their in-house tables chairs and linens worked well in the space, where I was able to reallocate budget to some of the other decor items. She guided me towards where best to spend the money. I know my guests were blown away.

    I had my wedding here back in May of 2008 and I felt like it was a perfect day for us! We flew home to Boston to book the venue in June 2007 and they were very detailed about what everything will cost. Since our wedding was going to be in the evening, I wanted a cityside view so you can see the lights of the buildings reflecting off into the windows. It was totally worth every penny. The food was delicious and the service was top notch. We even got a wedding coordinator with the package, who helped us with everything. We had 6 passed appetizers with the Liguria table which consisted of steamed veggies and fruits and breads. We added the intermezzo in between meals for guests to clean their palates as well as a dessert and candy table for everyone to enjoy. The view was amazing and we had a great time. I'm also very pleased that President Obama celebrated his 47th birthday here.

    Couldn't get enough of the gorgeous view. A lot can be done with the bi-level space. Really enjoy the tour. Perfect space for under 300 guests. The tricky thing for this venue is the parking situation. Not allowed to bring in outside catering.

    Attended a wedding at this location. There is a concierge that greets guest at the main lobby and directs them to the top floor. The main area has 2 levels. The top level is used as a check in area where servers provide hors' dourves and beverages. A bar with a seating area is available. Guest are transitioned to the main area for dining. There is an area for a band and an additional bar. The view of the bay is spectacular. Food is amazing from hors' dourves to dinner. Servers cater to guest. Arrangements: They have a list of their preferred caterers, which you select. You may use an outside caterer for ax extra fee. Same goes for a photographer and band. Anything outside their preferred partners an additional fee is required. Also, the traditional end time is 11pm with an option for an additional 1 hour. Again there is an extra fee for the additional hour.

    The State Room, located on the 33rd floor at 60 State Street, hosts wedding receptions, corporate events and grand galas. The venue can accommodate as many as 850 guests or as little as 50. The large bay windows offer a great view of downtown Boston and the harbor area. Their passed hors d'oeuvres (picture uploaded) were wonderful. The bar service was delightful, something that's rare with an open bar. The master of the hall or matre d' was on point. He was helpful and accommodating without being pushy or obnoxious. If you're looking to hold any type of event and want to impress your guests while receiving superb food, service and drinks book this place.

    My husband's company held their holiday party here and it was great. Beautiful views around the whole place, great space for several different areas of activities, etc. They had the tables set upstairs and down, three or four bars set throughout, the band and dance floor, and several different serving stations. The staff was pleasant and the place was nicely decorated. Love the floor to ceiling windows and the beautiful view of the city. It was amazing to see Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market all lit up with the Xmas tree, etc. from above... and the water... It was a rainy cold night but still a wonderful view.

    Attended an event here sponsored by the company. The reception hour was held in one of the rooms next to the Great Room. There were two food stations; sliced roast chicken and a beef brisket with mashed sweet potato served in a cast iron casserole! The beef was so tender and the I love the buttery mashed sweet potato. For desserts there were vanilla and chocolate cupcakes topped with caramel swirl and mocha coffee beans. Even the tea they served was really fancy. It was the pyramid shaped tea bags from the company, Tea Forte. I heard this was one of Oprah's favorite items. For the awards ceremony everyone was wisked to the Great Room next door. My fellow attedees and I were fortunate enough to sit in the front row. I was completely awed by the panoramic glass wall overlooking the Boston skyline. As the sun was setting the view was more beyond amazing.

    This is definitely on of the most beautiful places in Boston. I was looking for a venue that was modern with neutral colors & a waterfront background and thus chose the Harborside Salons for my wedding reception this past summer. The two best things about the State Room is the STUNNING view from the 33rd floor and that they are all-inclusive, so you don't have to worry about linens, chairs, catering, and cake (I Dream of Jeanne is their in-house dessert baker!!!) because it's all part of the package. Erica Phillips was my event coordinator and she was very professional and helpful. I really enjoyed working with her and she definitely made the process easier. On wedding day, I also had a complimentary attendant, Jackie, who was helpful in getting my husband and myself champagne, making sure we were eating, and organizing all of the things that we had to take home at the end of the night (cake knife, card box, photos, etc). Guests enjoyed the good service and delicious appetizers/entree (with the exception of the beef - everybody, including my husband and I at the tasting, felt it was average and a bit overdone). Also, it was 100 degrees on our wedding day so the air-conditioning was perfect. Minus 1 star for the following reasons: (1) They mixed up our table numbers - my father-in-laws family was supposed to sit in one of primary closest tables, and instead, my in-laws friends that we barely know were placed in one of the closets tables and in the background of most of our photos. To our family, it was implied as disrepectful and reflects poorly on my husband and me. (2) The State Room "event minimum" is different than the typical "food and beverage minimum" that most venues require. It means "preferred" photographers, flowers, upgraded linens can be included in the event minimum. If you include these preferred vendors in your event minimum, they charge you much more for their services than if you do not apply it to your event minimum. (I wonder if this is because they have to pay a certain % State Room for the referral.) (3) The mediocre beef dish as mentioned above. As a basic meal option, this needs improvement when brides are paying $300/guest. (4) Because I was overally happy with my wedding, I was excited about having a corporate event here but decided to go elsewhere because the saleswomen was so inconsistent about pricing and waited to mention all of these extra fees when I was about to sign. Unfortunately will be holding the corporate event elsewhere... Overall really happy with the wedding here but just wanted to point out some of the caveats so that other potential customers are aware and hopefully State Room will make improvements accordingly.

    Aside from the fact that there was free food and an open bar, there was a 360 degree aeriel view of the city, it was incredible.

    Back Bay

    I can't recommend The College Club of Boston enough. It's a beautiful victorian style building. Old…read morefashioned, but truly iconic. I was staying for 2 nights, my first time in the city. I was very unsure which area to stay in, but I'm so happy I chose CCB because the location is absolutely perfect. Back Bay is very nice and safe. You even have a wonderful park just outside the doorstep to walk around, and the lovely Boston Commons only two blocks away. Check-in/out was one of the most seamless experiences I've had with hotels/airbnbs. I didn't have to check in with anyone, and I received the door code a few days before. They have a lovely dining room for guests with homemade cookies, fruit, coffee and tea. Unfortunately I didn't take advantage of the breakfast, but I'm sure it's great too. CCB is really the perfect mix of a hotel and bed/breakfast. I was unsure about doing the solo room with a shared bathroom, but other than having to wait for the other guest to finish his shower so I could take an urgent bio break, it was no issue at all and I would hands down do it again. I'm pretty sure the other floors have a bathroom if you absolutely need it though. For the location, price, comfort, and amenities, College Club of Boston is a no brainer. I got the please to quickly meet the GM on my way out, and she is super sweet. I even left my airpods in the room, and without hesitation they are shipping them back to me. 5 starts forsure.

    We had our wedding ceremony here. It was absolutely perfect. We had 12 guests total, but the space…read morecould definitely accommodate a considerably larger party. The venue itself was breathtakingly beautiful, clean, and presentable. We requested a charcuterie board, champagne, and fruit platter, and it was stunningly displayed and high quality. There was a great mini-bar. Anna the manager was very responsive and accommodating. I am extremely pleased with our experience and would 100% recommend this venue!
