Taj Boston: A Perfect Wedding Destination
For generations, people have flocked to the corner of Arlington and Newbury to celebrate special occasions. The old world luxury of the Crown Jewel of Boston is where people go when nothing short of excellence will do. They go for the refined elegance that has been iconic since 1927, when the Ritz Carlton Boston first opened. Since 2007, Taj Boston has carried the same elegance, with a fresh and creative style. The hotel embodies the finest luxury experience, Yankee ingenuity and Boston social sensibilities. Be it for tea and cucumber sandwiches, brunch on the Roof Top, or a champagne toast after an elegant meal—the experience is the same. Perfect.
Perhaps that is why brides and grooms-to-be choose Taj Boston as the perfect place for their wedding. There is no such thing as a “standard” wedding reception at the Taj. Each wedding is unique, according to the couples’ needs. Same sex weddings are as much a part of the wedding scene at the Taj, with beautiful and sophisticated receptions, parties, and brunches as part of the entire matrimonial weekend. Indian weddings are uniquely tasteful and a specialty at the Taj, and the Indian chefs are best in Boston for their creations, presentation, and unique flavors.

The event may be quiet and stately over tea and champagne in the French and Adam Room, or grand and elaborate in the Grand Ballroom. There are multiple possibilities to celebrate the special occasion, and make it like no other.
The Roof Top offers dazzling views of the Boston Public Garden and has a fresh, romantic feel unlike any other vista in the city. It lends itself to creative and stylish decorating to enhance the natural surrounding beauty. The Main Dining Room is old world style with cobalt blue and crystal chandeliers, gilded columns and richly draped windows, offering a more formal, but intimate elegance.

Many of the couples who choose to have their reception at the Taj, have fond memories of this iconic building. It may have been a first tea with grandmother, a brunch with friends, or a special dinner (or even engagement!). Some even had their first business meeting there. Elegance and tradition make the perfect duo for wedding parties.
The attention to detail in every aspect of the planning is unparalled, and even the most sophisticated couples find exactly what they are looking for. From the ceremony, to the reception and all the way to the honeymoon, the team at the Taj covers all the bases with a variety of unique wedding amenities.
One particularly lovely surprise is creation of individual wedding cakes from talented pastry chef Robert Alger. He literally creates whatever the guest has in mind, and has even been known for spectacular adaptations of traditional cakes to suit their desires.
