I highly recommend the Mitchell Museum at Cedarhurst Center for the Arts as a wedding venue. We had our ceremony and reception there and were able to have the ceremony outside and...

the reception inside. All the spaces we used were beautiful and the guests loved it. HOWEVER, Cedarhurst has NOTHING in the way of catering supplies or dinnerware. We had to rent everything from plates and silverware to water pitchers, chairs, and a sound system. We were pleased with the rental price for the facility, but by the time we had rented everything we needed, it had doubled our cost.
