Olio | Event Space • Offbeat Wed (was Offbeat Bride)

Content

Bring us your unique and nontraditional weddings and ideas!

This historic space has been outfitted with every modern amenity to be the ideal space to host the perfect wedding. We provide a non-traditional venue so that our clients have a blank slate to start from and can make the space their own. Without any décor, the soaring ceilings and cement walls feel "industrial chic" but clients can transform the space with glitz and glam, rustic touches, romantic lighting, modern lines, whimsical details, and vintage furniture. If you can dream it, it can be done at <a href="http://oliopeabody.com">Olio</a>.

Located just North of Boston, Massachusetts, in the heart of New England, the venue is conveniently located and easily accessible to Logan Airport and nearby accommodations and attractions. Olio caters to all couples, particularly those who have a unique vision, background, or love story. Olio welcomes all and actively seeks out LGBTQIA+ identifying clients.

Olio is a family business, launched by Sarah Narcus after a decade planning events with her wedding coordination company, <a href="http://withoutahitchboston.com">Without A Hitch</a>, in partnership with her mom. Olio is professionally designed and operated so that all of couples are taken care of.

Perfect for weddings with an onsite ceremony of 25 to 200, and with an off-site ceremony up to 300. Pricing and lots more information, including FAQs and tips/tricks are on <a href="https://www.oliopeabody.com/pricing">Olio's website.</a> and social media accounts. Inquire today to <a href="https://www.oliopeabody.com/contact">schedule a tour</a>. We can't wait to hear from you!
<blockquote><em>My husband and I thankfully stumbled upon Olio when we typed in “unique, industrial wedding venue.” When we arrived and stepped inside the lobby area, it looked so clean, bright and modern. Then we went up the stairs and WOWWWW - we were legitimately speechless. The enormous room with so many historical features and endless possibilities really blew us away. It’s a blank canvas, waiting for you to design the best day of your life in ANY way you want! We secured our date with Sarah within a couple of days and I’m so glad we did. Not only is it a gorgeous venue, but Sarah and her team were also incredibly speedy and helpful in answering any emails and questions we had along the way. - Rachael and Devin</em></blockquote>

Highlighted Images

Please select up to three images to be highlighted in the header of your portfolio. Note that our templates are designed to be responsive, which means that these images will crop differently depending on the viewer's browser size and orientation -- on mobile, images map crop horizontally. On huge desktops, they may crop vertically. That's as intended, although it may result in some headless couples depending on your photo composition.

How I cater to offbeat weddings

This is one of the most important fields on your vendor listing! Our readers love to feel special and like you understand the issues that are important to them -- stuff like LGBTQ support, gender-neutral contracts, and inclusive sizing. They also love hearing about how offbeat YOU are, so be sure to mention any of your own quirks as a way to relate to folks.

Client Testimonial

This is the spot to share a short client quote. The formatting of this section looks best with only a few sentences, but feel free to include a link to full reviews.

Promotions or Discounts

Everyone likes a coupon, but our readers LOVE feeling special, and like their specialness matters and gets them a deal. They especially love discounts or coupons specifically for marginalized communities or identities. If you've ever had a particular client you've wanted to work with (say, a transgender bride or a goth couple or a polyamorous triad) this is the spot to offer a discount specifically to those communities!

Vendor Gallery

Upload and select the images to be shown in your gallery. To add images, click the "Add to Gallery" button. After selecting your images, you will be able to drag and drop them to change the order. To delete an image, hover and click the X in the top right corner of the image. Your gallery is limited to 30 images. Images must be smaller than 4 MB.
