This is a wonderful place for a small wedding and reception. We had my mother's 75th birthday party here, and the director is very helpful and accommodating. It has a beautiful staircase for a bride to walk down!

Tim, the Directer of the Museum was such a great help! The venue is a museum so we barely have to do any decorating in the house. The garden area is a beautiful open area, with plenty of area to have your reception. We are having our ceremony and reception in the garden. There's even a perfect patio area for a dance floor!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
