    The Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art (BMOCA) was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, their communication was prompt, clear, and extremely helpful as we navigated the planning process. Sean, our main point of contact, was on top of all the details and worked seamlessly with our other vendors to ensure our day ran smoothly. The location and quality of service at BMOCA is a steal compared to many other wedding venues in Boulder - the space is elegant and affordable, and the museum's great location made it easy for our guests to access. For the value and the incredible service we received, we highly recommend BMOCA as a wonderful choice for any couple's special day.
