“My husband and I just celebrated our wedding reception at the Field and it was beyond anything I could have dreamed. Peyton and every single Field staff member were amazing to work with. The Field works with the most remarkable vendors in the city and every minute detail is considered and covered. The museum has been a special place for my husband and I. For us to have had our reception there was a dream come true. There is no other space in the city like it! Our guests had a ball being able to explore the exhibits and grounds of the museum. It wasn’t just a reception, it was the experience of a lifetime!”
