For many brides and grooms, their wedding day is one of the most important days of their lives. And their rehearsal dinner and wedding reception are the first opportunities as a couple to celebrate with friends and family.

Whether you choose to have a formal wedding, or a more casual affair, the museum has beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces that can accommodate your ceremony, a formal dinner or cocktail hour, dancing, and more.

Plus, we offer an outdoor plaza and amphitheater with expansive views. (And, if it rains on your special day, the event can easily be moved inside.)




The following are include, at no extra cost, with your rental of the Museum:

- Tables and chairs
- Security
- Audio-visual equipment
