“The team at Buskirk-Chumley Theater provided excellent communication and consistency throughout the entire wedding planning process. Their friendly and professional staff were a huge help, walking me through every detail needed for the space. The quality of their work and the value they provided was top-notch - they even included a tech specialist who assisted with the lighting and music setup. The staff arrived early and had the tables beautifully arranged, making the day so easy and stress-free. I'm grateful for their large, high-quality contribution to making our special day a success!”
