The Thompson Center at UNO served as the perfect ceremony site for us! The lawn provided a picture perfect space for our ceremony and included all of the chairs, a professional sound system, use of two large indoor dressing rooms, and a backup indoor space in case of inclement weather. Fortunately for us the weather cooperated and we were able to see our dream of an outdoor wedding transpire! The Thompson Center staff was extremely professional and had an answer for everything which allowed us to not have to worry about a single detail on our wedding day. They ensured the lawn was immaculate by tending to the flowers and picking up sticks right up until guests arrived. Once guests did arrive the Thompson Center has a fantastic outdoor patio for guests to mingle and in our case- take selfies we would use later on and have some snacks! Thank you Thompson Center for helping to make our wedding day what it was!

We were so lucky to have found this venue to host our wedding ceremony and reception. Steve is absolutely fantastic to work with. The staff is very accommodating and responsive. The venue was beautiful. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how wonderful the venue was. We chose to have the ceremony outside and the reception indoors. Top notch and very affordable. If you are looking for a venue to host any event, this should be on your list of places to view.

They were super helpful every step of the way and made everything easier. They setup and took down everything and
they give you the whole building! We were able to have dinner in one room and dancing across the hall and it worked out perfectly!
