3 reviews for Robert Treat Paine Estate
I got married here, so of course I am going to be somewhat biased about the place.
As a wedding venue, it was perfect for a smallish wedding of about 90 guests. The grounds were fantastic for everyone to wander around, the foliage and landscaping actually made the need for us to spend half our budget on flowers unnecessary, and the interior was equally gorgeous, with hard wood everything, a grand staircase/foyer that was excellent for dancing and toasts and lots of rooms for a dessert buffet and a large dining area.
It is however a historic estate, which means that there are limitations in terms of vendors you can use and decorations (eg, no lit candles indoors) however since we had a late summer wedding, we pretty much stayed outside the entire time so these weren't huge concerns.
The event coordinator is -terrifying- but she knows what she is doing. She's very gruff, all business, but really, you're not there to make friends with her, so just smile and nod and everything will go ok.
The price wasn't bad for the event, and there is a discount for Waltham residents (which we were not. boo)

My friend had his wedding at the Paine Estate on a Saturday in October right around sunset - and it was amazing. This place is gorgeous. The house itself is elegant and classic. This was the perfect venue for a small intimate wedding.
A beautiful place to visit, and you can have weddings there too. My friends did this, and it worked out wonderfully. Very elegant place with beautiful grounds.
