Weddings

Media Recognition:

The following is included in the wedding package:
We handle weddings in a very special way at the Museum: When a wedding is scheduled we will not schedule any other events on that evening. This way the full attention of the staff and building resources are on your special day. This allows weddings to use any or all of the event spaces  in the Quadracci Pavilion  on your day. Available after the museum closes at 5pm, your function can start at 5:30pm or later. All functions need to end at or before midnight.

Spaces that are available: Windhover Hall, Baumgartner Terrace (*weather permitting), both the Schroeder & Baumgartner Gallerias, Quadracci Suite, Northwestern Mutual Room, Lubar Auditorium, Café Calatrava, and Cudahy Gardens.

• Catering by Café Calatrava can cater your special day.
• All wedding planners, florists, and bakeries must be approved by the Museum.
• The Museum can arrange access to either the featured exhibition or the first floor of the Collection.
• We can also arrange to open and close the Burke Brise Soliel.
