About this venue

Laramie Plains Museum is an unequaled venue that offers couples a unique and historic backdrop for their wedding day in the heart of Laramie, Wyoming. The Alice Hardie Stevens Center and East Lawn are the perfect locations to say “I do”. Radiating timeless elegance, the picture-perfect property combines that ageless sophistication with modern amenities for a memorable wedding.

Facilities and Capacity

Laramie Plains Museum is located near the University of Wyoming and the Invinson Mansion, close to downtown Laramie. The Alice Hardie Stevens Center (AHSC), located on the Ivinson Mansion block, was named after an extraordinary woman who went above and beyond to preserve the mansion and grounds. The walls still carry the echoes of the past and add a sense of grandeur to the occasion. The exceptional, and recently expanded, AHSC boasts a magnificent ballroom, complete with wooden floors, a vaulted ceiling, a stage, and shimmering overhead chandeliers. Stylish French doors open onto a manicured English garden, where couples and their guests can mingle, and which is ideal for the ceremony. The beautiful AHSC building was built over a century ago and contains a stunning dressing room where nearlyweds and their wedding party can prepare on-site, hassle-free. In addition, the AHSC features a fully-equipped kitchen, where the celebration’s all-important delectable meal can be prepared as the attendees soak in the property’s historic atmosphere. All in all, the building can accommodate up to 200 loved ones for a seated meal, or up to 350 for a standing get-together.

Services Offered

When spouses-to-be choose Laramie Plains Museum for their big day, they will receive folding chairs for the ceremony, with tables, Chivari chairs, cocktail tables, and more available for the reception. The AHSC is wheelchair accessible, meaning no loved ones will miss out on the happy couple’s once-in-a-lifetime event. For all nearlyweds looking to tie the knot surrounded by loved ones and history, Laramie Plains Museum’s ASHC and East Lawn are the only choice.

September 2025 Wedding

The venue was perfect for the vibe we wanted for our wedding. We love that it was a piece of history, but also had an elegant feel without having to add many decorations. The lawn was great for the ceremony and the AHSC was great for the reception. The size was perfect, we had about 130 people, and it did not feel over cramped. We loved the beautiful 100+ year old bar. We loved being able to serve our guests their first drinks from behind it.
Michelle was so kind and easy to work with. She answered all our questions and would make extra time for us to make sure our questions were answered so our vision could come to life. Highly recommend this venue for weddings and any other events.

Wonderful place to hold my wedding!

We held our wedding at the Laramie Plains Museum in Laramie, WY this past August, and it could not have been a more perfect experience. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful — full of charm and history — and made a stunning backdrop for both our ceremony and reception.

What really stood out to us was the incredible staff. Everyone we worked with was kind, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure our day went smoothly. They were organized, responsive, and made the entire planning process much easier.

One detail we really appreciated was how simple the end-of-night process was. They had a great key return system in place, which made wrapping up the night stress-free — something any couple will appreciate after a long and joyful day!

We would absolutely recommend the Laramie Plains Museum to anyone looking for a unique, elegant, and well-run venue. It’s a gem of the gem city and a truly wonderful place to celebrate love.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
