The Garden at Elm Bank is located at 900 Washington Street in Wellesley, just off Route 9. On-site parking is available free of charge — follow the signs to the main lot upon arrival. For those using GPS, enter “The Garden at Elm Bank” or the address above. The venue is approximately 30 minutes west of Boston by car. A ride-share drop-off area is located near the entrance.

We will provide shuttles from both Homewood Suites by Hilton Needham and Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Needham to the gardens, with return rides to both hotels at the end of the night. Anyone who would like a ride is welcome — please share where you'll be staying and whether you plan to drive, use Uber / ride-share, or take the shuttle when you RSVP.
