    The Corpus Christi Museum of Science & History was a wonderful venue for our wedding. From the very first interaction, the staff there were incredibly thorough, helpful, and patient in walking us through all the details. They took the time to understand our vision and provide thoughtful suggestions to make our day special. The museum itself is large, with many interesting and beautiful exhibits that provided a unique and memorable backdrop for our ceremony and reception. Our guests were in awe of the space and raved about the overall experience. We are so grateful to the museum team for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.

    The Corpus Christi Museum of Science & History was an absolutely amazing venue for our Christmas Party. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was awesome - Andrea G was amazing and so responsive, answering all of our questions and helping us plan every detail. On the day of, the venue looked stunning and the staff went above and beyond to make sure our Christmas Party reception went off without a hitch. The quality of their work and value was excellent, and all of our guests raved about the beautiful space. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our special day. Highly recommend!
