We chose the Bushnell Theater for our wedding as it held sentimental value for our family and it was a unique, "not-your-typical" wedding venue. From the multiple beautiful spaces ...
(ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception), to the responsiveness and professionalism of the staff (Erin and Elissa especially) it was unparalleled. Our wedding was out of an absolute dream and I wish I could live that day over and over again.
Everything about The Bushnell was perfect for our Wedding! We wanted a venue that had perfect acoustics and you can't get much better than a Theater! One of our pet peeves is bei...
ng at an event and not being able to have a conversation or to pay for a Band that doesn't sound good because of the acoustics - that was not a problem at The Bushnell. We had our ceremony in one room; our cocktail reception in another room and our dinner/dancing reception on the Theater stage. Our guests were absolutely blown away by the venue and the ease of the evening. We can not say enough about the staff - they were there to accommodate anything we needed and they did so with such professionalism and graciousness! Max catering at the venue was wonderful - everyone gushed over the food! We want to thank everyone involved at The Bushnell for helping to make our Wedding simply MAGICAL!
My husband and I held our wedding at The Bushnell in December and it was the best decision we have ever made! Domingo and his team put on a flawless event that appeared to effortle...
ssly pull off a million tiny detailed requests! I'm not sure why there isn't a wedding there every day because it is the perfect place to accommodate events of any size while offering unique backdrops of beautiful historic decor, with all imaginable modern accommodations. I have never worked with a more dedicated group of individuals who genuinely cared about creating some of the happiest memories I will cherish for the rest of my life. The food (Max Catering) was exquisite the team ensured that we actually had a chance to eat! Based on the availability of the theatre the night of our wedding our guests were even able to take a tour behind stage during the cocktail hour while they enjoyed drinks and light refreshments. My only regret is that I haven't come up with a reason to plan another big event with this incredible team again yet.
amazing space, beautiful attention to detail. even better staff and help. would HIGHLY recommend.
I had a wonderful experience having my wedding at the Bushnell. The space is beautiful, the people go way above and beyond to make everything run perfectly and the food is amazing....
I received so many complements from the guests.
