    BMoCA is a perfect venue for the modern couple who loves revitalized spaces, art, and the city of Boulder! The venue is super close to downtown Boulder and is super easy to get to. The interior has the quintessential modern, industrial feel. Their staff is super friendly, helpful and easy to communicate with!

  • Creative Reception Venue

    •Verified review
    •Christy W.•Aug 1, 2023

    BMoCA was a wonderful reception venue for our July 2023 wedding! Sean was easy to work with and even let our planner borrow a few of the museum's black chairs for our musicians to use at our outdoor ceremony earlier in the day. All our guests raved about the beautiful simplicity of the museum's upstairs event space as well as Three Leaf Catering's food. Plus it's great knowing that our rental dollars are going to a local nonprofit. Can't recommend BMoCA enough for your Boulder wedding reception!
