The museum helped me propose to my now fiancee in a great way. My fiancee was blown away when it all happened, can not thank Monica enough. Give them a try, you won't be sorry I promise!!

We had our reception at the museum and it went so smoothly and stress free! Everyone loved being able to go into the first floor and use the carousel . The staff there was willing to keep the entire bridal party on schedule, and take care of any foreseeable problems so we did not have to. 10/10 would recommend using this venue and would do it again and again!

Liz and her team were WONDERFUL throughout the entire experience. They were organized, on top of things, and always one step ahead. They're the vendor you don't have to worry about. The museum sells itself as far as a wedding venue goes. It's beautiful, unique, and access to the carousel certainly doesn't hurt things -- but what puts it above and beyond is the staff. They were part of the process from booking the museum, to final details and work tirelessly on the day of to ensure the bride and groom get to actually relax on the day of.
