This place was perfect for our wedding. We utilized all three private event spaces sequentially. Had our ceremony in the Cook Theatre, cocktail hour in the Lagoda Room, and reception in the Harbor View Hall. Our guests were all extremely happy with the experience with great mix of historical displays to see and open space to celebrate and dance. Andrew and the entire museum team were amazing at ensuring the event went smoothly and we were soo thankful for their help! Overall, amazing venue, highly recommend!

There are very few magical people one encounters in their lifetime. Stephanie is one of those people. She promised us on the first day we met her our wedding day would be the best day of our lives and this promise did not fall short! From the moment we decided to have Stephanie coordinate our wedding up until our wedding day there was never a doubt in our minds we were in the best hands. Her meticulous attention to each detail, ability to use her industry contacts to get things done efficiently, and passion for event coordination shown through in everything she did. She had a vision of what a perfect wedding day would be and executed all of the small details that built this vision and made it possible. She went above and beyond what you would consider coordinator duties and even went to the town hall for us on occasions as we were long distance from the Cape! Stephanie took each step along the way to ensure we were able to avoid unnecessary costs, reduce stress, have fun, and plan an event of a lifetime. In the future any event we plan I know Stephanie would be our first choice to coordinate and she would do so flawlessly.
