Reviews of Museum of Life and Science
Review summary
The Museum of Life and Science is highly recommended as a unique and magical wedding venue by multiple couples. The interactive exhibits provided a fun and engaging atmosphere for guests, with activities like touring the butterfly house and train rides during cocktail hour. Rachel, the venue's event coordinator, received praise for her professionalism, attention to detail, and flexibility in planning, even accommodating last-minute changes due to weather. The staff, particularly Richard, went above and beyond to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for the couples and their guests. Overall, the museum's natural beauty, attentive staff, and memorable experiences make it a top choice for couples seeking a one-of-a-kind wedding venue.
Introvert's Dream Wedding - Activities Galore!
We held our ceremony outside of the butterfly house, allowing guests to tour the butterfly house (and take a train ride) during cocktail hour, and we had our reception in the Aerospace exhibit.
We kept calling our wedding “an Introvert’s dream wedding” because of all the activities. What we didn’t realize was that all the activities gave people things to talk about the whole night through. So many of our wedding guests have raved about our wedding being the most fun wedding they’ve been to, and a great deal of that was due to how much fun the Museum of Life and Science is!
On the admin side, the Museum’s event coordinator, Rachel, was very friendly, positive, responsive, and accommodating. She helped a great deal with coordinating the set up of everything for our wedding in collaboration with our wedding planner, Events by Emily.
Originally, we had been worried that having to start our wedding after the Museum closed at 5pm (ceremony at 6:30pm) would not be enough time, but all things considered, the limited amount of time did not outweigh how amazing and unique our wedding was because of the Museum. Without a doubt, if we were to plan our wedding again, we would absolutely book the Museum of Life and Science!
