“We got married at the Metal Museum (downtown), and we could not recommend it enough. The grounds are absolutely stunning, and our guests were blown away by the views. In addition to how lovely the scenery was, the museum staff was so helpful, responsive, and kind during the planning process and the day of the wedding. I highly recommend getting married here!!!”
