About this venue
Dearly Studio is a courthouse alternative for couples who want a no-fuss ceremony that's still personal, elegant and fun. The concept for Dearly Studio is novel, but not new — plenty of little chapels exist outside Las Vegas, and giddy couples have been skipping over to their local courthouse since forever. What makes Dearly so special is the care that goes into crafting each ceremony, the community of vendors we’re lucky to be surrounded by at Bow Market and the flexibility of our packages to provide a bespoke experience. Cookie cutter weddings are OUT, friends. Time for big feelings, small weddings and a celebration that’s uniquely yours.

Jusmine and Dearly Studio are such gems in Somerville. My partner and I were feeling really overwhelmed by the idea of a "big traditional wedding" and found Dearly through some research online. We opted for the "Union in Union" package and it was perfect for us and our families! Dearly is such a darling space. Jusmine is wonderful and detail-oriented and made us feel like we were under such great care throughout the planning process and through our ceremony. The relationships Dearly has with other local vendors was something that was important to us. I can't recommend enough!
Please get married at Dearly
Getting married at Dearly was one of the best wedding decision we made. The character and charm of the Dearly space is unmatched and Jusmine is like no other! Jusmine was available and helpful throughout the ENTIRE process- she brought the energy and careful detail that every wedding needs. Professional and personable, she truly made our ceremony one-of-a-kind. I rave about Dearly to any nearlyweds I meet, promising that Jusmine and Dearly will deliver because she is THAT girl.
An incredible experience at Dearly Studio
Dearly met and exceeded all expectations! Can't recommend this venue enough :) We found Jusmine—Dearly's owner and justice of the peace—super responsive, thoughtful and prepared for anything. In an intimate setting, she fit right into our friends and family and made a special day even more special. We booked the 'At Last' ceremony package and found having the studio for an hour was plenty for us. We brought in our own photographer and purchased florals through Rococo, both worked out great. Our families can't stop raving about it. Thank you, Jusmine!
Dearly Studio
My wife and I had our wedding at Dearly Studio and we cannot recommend it highly enough! Jusmine was incredible. She communicated with us thoroughly throughout the planning stages and made sure that every detail was accounted for. She was thoughtful, caring, and supportive - she truly helped make our special day perfect. The space was beautifully decorated and our guests had nothing but positive things to say about their experience. We highly recommend Dearly Studio to anyone looking to make their intimate ceremony feel fun, elegant, and special. Thank you to Jusmine and Dearly Studio for helping us have the wedding of our dreams!
