Event Spaces at Endicott Estate
The Mansion
The heart of Endicott Estate is its turn of the 20th century mansion. Its exterior is painted a light golden hue with white trim, columns and terraces. But step inside, and you’ll find elegant rooms with dark wood floors and walls styled with vintage furnishings, fireplaces and tons of windows for natural light. The indoor spaces are perfect for getting ready, intimate ceremonies, or cozy receptions. If you’re into all the moody, cozy vibes then you’ll definitely want to use the mansion’s interior!
The Grounds
One of the best features of Endicott Estate? The stunning outdoor spaces. Being only 10 miles from Boston, it’s amazing how this little gem of a venue has over 18 acres of land to explore. Expansive lawns, towering trees, and a romantic wrap-around porch make it an ideal venue for an outdoor wedding as well. Picture saying your vows under a canopy of trees, then celebrating with your guests as the sun sets over the estate. It’s beyond dreamy! But my personal favorite spot is the greenhouse and surrounding gardens – perfect for a little botanical action and a great alternative backdrop for your photos!
The Tent
For larger receptions or couples who want that elevated backyard feel, Endicott Estate also offers a tented option that can be transformed to match your vision. Perfect for couples who want to enjoy warm summer days or crisp fall evenings on the lawn with the mansion in the background and are looking to have more of a blank slate for decorating.
