The College Club of Boston

The College Club of Boston is a renovated Victorian brownstone mansion located in the heart of Boston's Back Bay neighborhood. Founded in 1890 by 19 women as the first women's college club in the United States, this historic institution was created to provide opportunities for professional and educated women to gather and connect. The building features classic French exterior architecture with 18-foot ceilings, classical décor, and stately rooms that create an elegant atmosphere for wedding celebrations. The venue accommodates up to 80 guests for cocktail-style receptions or up to 60 guests for seated meals. The space is suitable for wedding ceremonies, receptions, elopements, and civil unions, as well as engagement parties, bridal showers, and rehearsal dinners. Twelve on-site bedrooms decorated in the colors of local colleges and universities are available as get-ready rooms or overnight accommodations. Executive Chef and Catering Director Craig Ricker prepares dishes using fresh local ingredients and works with couples to design menus suited to their personal taste and budget. The venue provides in-house catering, bartending services, a Sonos sound system for personal playlists, and rental items. The property includes wheelchair access and wireless internet for guest convenience.
