WOW. Where do we even begin with our amazing experience with 21C!? We used 21C for a bridal brunch, rehearsal dinner, and welcome reception, on top of booking a block of rooms for ...

our out of town guests. From the very beginning, we had the most incredible experience. The food was delicious, the drinks were great, and the rooms were beautiful. On top of being a beautiful location in Bentonville, the staff is really what sets this place apart. We were fortunate enough to work with Amber, Amy, Carrie, Andrea, and Abigail, all of whom went above and beyond to make all of our events a success. We are so grateful to the team at 21C, and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an event venue in NW Arkansas! Thank you, thank you, thank you to our dream team!

A great venue that really makes it easy. They handle chairs, decor, and catering in house, but they really listen to you. I was able to pick my ceremony and reception space, work o...

ut all details including chair placement and candles, and fully customize my menu in one meeting. The food from the Hive is delicious, and the atmosphere is light and airy, but with interest lent by the art exhibits. It's also great because it's a gallery, restaurant, and hotel- so you don't have to worry about where out of town guests will stay or how they will get to the festivities.

When we began our wedding planning, we wanted to focus on being as stress-free as possible. We couldn't have accomplished that without 21c Museum Hotel! We used vendors from their ...

suggested list, who were all professional and great to work with. Our dinner was catered on-site by The Hive. Everyone enjoyed the three-course sit-down dinner. Most importantly, the staff was amazing. Our event coordinator made sure the day flowed smoothly, down to my odd requests of needing a 6 feet ladder for our photographer and allowed us to use their cake stand when ours was too small. The venue itself is very unique and quite original. Our guests continuously asked us how we came to find this place! For a great and memorable wedding, I recommend 21c Museum Hotel.
