With over 40 years of combined experience in the wedding and hospitality industry, our award-winning vendor team takes great pride in creating inspiring intimate wedding ceremonies where no detail is left to chance.
Our curated elopement and intimate ceremony collections are perfectly assembled as a complete experience without sacrificing luxury amenities and artfully curated details. Each of our curated collections include a licensed officiant and exclusive location access to locally sourced florals, hand-painted stationery, photography, an elopement concierge, and more. With every detail managed, you are free to focus on your partner and bask in the beauty and quality of your intimate ceremony. Our Collective currently offers three elopement collections with varying levels of detail and inclusion for each of our exclusive elopement locations.
one if by land
Exchange vows in the blooming fields at Cross Street Flower Farm or Salted Root Farm, a private scenic farm with grazing horses and beautiful perennial gardens both on the South Shore of Boston.
two if by sea
Tie the knot while sailing the majestic waters of Boston Harbor on Captiva, a privately chartered 45-foot Classic Chesapeake Skipjack sailboat from Classic Sail Boston.
Why Mainstay Collective?
Mainstay came to us after being inspired by our popular elopement editorial shoot on the Captiva, featured on Style Me Pretty in Fall 2019. Following the SMP feature, our creative team received hundreds of requests asking if we could bring that experience to fruition for their engagement or elopement. Now more than ever, couples are looking for ways to celebrate their union with an intentional experience. Couples are planning celebrations that prioritize both intimacy and beautifully curated details while also emphasizing affordability and community health. With this beautiful shift in popularity, our goal of curating heirloom elopement experiences with breathtaking land and sea options was born.
A Mainstay extends from the maintop to the foot of the foremast of a sailing ship. This simple definition, combined with our belief that a meaningful, love-filled ceremony is the cornerstone of any beautiful love story is what brought us our name: The Mainstay Collective. Even better, Cross Street Flower Farm is located on Main Street in Norwell, Massachusetts. As a collective, this venture provides an opportunity for our businesses and brands to curate experiences for our clients and couples as one united and inspired team.
