About

Turn your event dream into a reality.

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 Olio.

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, Without A Hitch, in partnership with her mom. Olio is professional 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 Olio's website and social media accounts. Inquire today to schedule a tour

The perfect space for us

We had such an incredible wedding at Olio. The venue is essentially a beautiful, historic blank canvas which we gravitated towards for our ability to bring in our own vendors and make the whole experience our own! The greenery, lighting, decor, and incredible food (shoutout to Kelli Petri @ Relish Catering & Events) made the whole space feel ethereal and stunning, and we had so much fun dancing the night away. Sarah and her team where incredibly communicative and helpful throughout the process, answering every question and accommodating multiple tours of the venue so our vision could come to life.

Speechless!

We recently had the most magical wedding at Olio, surpassing our wildest dreams. From the first time we contacted Olio (*it was the first and only venue we toured) through the post-event email catchups - we’ve had nothing but an A+ experience. Sarah and her team are not only approachable but welcoming, friendly, flexible, helpful, creative, honest, we could go on and on.

Committing to a blank slate venue was a leap on our end and they were there to guide us every step of the way. Sarah had nothing but great suggestions and offered a variety of vetted vendors to help ease our search. As we got closer to our big day and our questions seemed to accumulate, Sarah’s responses were timely and thorough. Lastly, the staff members working the night of our wedding were all SO pleasant and helpful! Our guests went on and on about how much they loved the space, how unique it was, etc. It fit the vibe we were looking for so perfectly and can truly become anything you want it to be!

Magic on Main Street

My now husband and I were nervous about the entire wedding process, knowing we wanted something a bit simpler, more intimate, and “nontraditional” in this day in age. We found Olio through social media and booked a tour right away. Walking up the staircase quite literally took my breath away. I was an emotional bride :) but the vast concrete walls, original flooring, and high ceilings brought tears to my eyes. We were “one and done.”

Sarah, her team, and what they have created on Main Street is truly magic. We chose some budget friendly options (for items such as flowers and decor) but no matter the size, every bride is treated with luxury customer service. I’m not sure how we got so lucky, it feels like we found some sort of precious gem. We struggled to find the right words to do it all justice. Simply put, we feel so grateful. Grateful to have found Olio, Sarah, and experienced the magic firsthand. Each of our guests who attended was more taken with the space than the next. We cannot recommend it enough; you simply have to experience it for yourself.
