We recently got married at the Bell Museum, and the experience was absolutely fantastic! Laura and Korra were very organized leading up to our wedding making sure we had all of the details ironed out far in advance. All of the staff who was working the day of our wedding were amazing, too! We had our ceremony in the planetarium, which made for some gorgeous photos, and our guests loved checking out the exhibits during the reception. Everyone’s favorite part was the stargazing that the staff set up on the patio after the sun went down. We highly recommend adding that to your rental, if possible.
