    A truely unique venue for your wedding or other event!

    We used the Discovery Science Center as our wedding and reception venue and it was a nerd/geek's paradise!

    The museum's event coordinator Tana is incredible! She helped us throughout the process of planning and setting up the venue for our wedding day. She put up with our many many many visits to bug her on site and was a pleasure each and every time. Pricing to book the venue on a holiday even was very reasonable and we felt like we were given the 5-star treatment evertime we went to the venue. The day of her staff was also incredible and all were a huge reason why our special day went so smoothly.

    The venue itself was an incredibly unique experience for all of our guests just like we wanted! The exhibits were open and accessible throughout our event and everyone had a blast! Plus a custom planetarium show during the reception. Such a one of a kind experience all around. If you are someone who enjoys space, tracking weather, D&D, and other "nerdy" enjoyments you will feel right at home getting married here or for any other event you might have!

    A dream wedding under stars...

    Tana was wonderful from the get go. Always there to answer questions, so accommodating and with us visiting the venue with vendors and left us feeling assured. Our wedding was so fun, the planetarium show was fabulous and our guests had so much fun exploring the museum! We got so many comments that it was the best, most laid back wedding they’d been to! Thanks to the discovery museum team!!!

    Top Notch A+

    This venue was perfect for my wife's 40th birthday party! It gave a MetGala feeling, but very warm and representative of the vibe/vision I wanted. The team was very flexible and accommodating from beginning to end. I highly recommend this venue for anyone's events. Overall a A++

    Unique and Beautiful!

    Having a wedding at the The Discovery Museum was such a wonderful experience! My whole family keeps calling me and telling me that it was the most fun and unique wedding that they had ever been too! They were so easy and convenient to work with! They set everything up, cleaned everything up, and made sure my husband (!) and I had a fun relaxing experience! I highly recommend this beautiful, unique venue!

    There are so many aspects of the Discovery Museum that made our wedding reception perfect! First and foremost, the staff was incredibly helpful and responsive to requests on the day of, and spent a lot of time communicating and meeting with us, our planner and other parties involved. They worked seamlessly with the florist and caterer for setup – they only had two hours to prepare and it all got done! We utilized the bottom floor for the cocktail party, and the middle floor for dinner and dancing. Guests were free to explore the museum and interact with the exhibits. Even I joined in on the obstacle course in my poufy white dress! Another great aspect about the museum is that elaborate decorations are not needed – the place pops all on its own.

    I could say that we were really lucky that everything fell into place for us, but luck only gets you so far. Having good vendors is a plus, but a fantastic venue with excellent staff to coordinate the chaos is better than luck, and the credit goes to the Discovery Museum!

    The Discovery Museum was an amazing venue for our rehearsal dinner. The space is so cool we didn't have to decorate at all - which was great. We were able to bring in our own food and drinks which was yummy and also had the bonus effect of making whole event a relatively frugal affair.

    They did an amazing planetarium show they customized just for us. Since it was too cloudy to see through the telescopes they did a demo of the space center instead. Our guests of all ages loved it! They even let us take pictures with the space rover after the event. It. was. awesome.

    They were so flexible with all our needs and a true pleasure to work with. I only wish they had been big enough to be our wedding venue!
