ywd08_l_city_gramercy1.jpg Gramercy Park Hotel, Manhattan, NY
  Manhattan’s Gramercy Park Hotel has been referred to as ‘original, romantic, poetic,’ and ‘surprising!’ due to the intersecting of its Haute Bohemian heritage, surreal, contemporary, and historic appointments, red velvet drapes, Venetian chandeliers, and the art of Andy Warhol, Julian Schnabel, and others.

The Gramercy boasts another innovative combination too, the exclusive Roof Club and Garden and Roof Club Suite, an interior/exterior space, with terrace for up to 200 seated guests. Lush landscaping and Moroccan tiles, under retractable roof, frame chaise lounges, outdoor beds, and hammocks, are all designed for seamless continuity between the indoor/outdoor spaces. This venue is reminiscent of New York’s early 1900’s roof top garden life.  

Another elegant venue, The Park Room, features dark exotic wood furnishings, leather Eames chairs, lush velvet curtains, and floor-to-ceiling windows yielding extended views of the park.

IX Beacon, Boston, MA
  The luxury boutique hotel IX Beacon on historic Beacon Hill is in a 1903 Beaux Arts Building. Much of the hotel’s history has been retained, including the original cage elevator, to provide a glance at Old Boston.

But IX Beacon’s history stretches back farther, and one wedding venue, The Wine Cellar, sits atop the foundation of the 1722 Bromfield Mansion, once situated on this site.  The Wine Cellar, accommodating 45 seated guests or 75 cocktail-style, has a double-vaulted ceiling and rich mahogany woodwork. Wall-size wine racks hold vintages dating back to the 1700’s. 

A second venue, the mahogany-decked Rooftop Garden, is beautifully landscaped, furnished with Delgreco chaises, and has an outdoor Jacuzzi. The Boston’s skyline view, including the Charles River, Boston Common, and gold-domed Capitol, is unparalleled. 

Which ever venue you select, the Executive Chef will prepare an elegant wedding feast, from New England classic to French-American, or customized menu of your choice.

For a very special blend of history and romance, call IX Beacon today.
