I cannot imagine getting married anywhere else! It is truly the most beautiful place! We rented the entire building which allowed our guests to walk through the trains and exhibits during cocktail hour. The staff were all very helpful in helping to prepare for the day, answer questions, and ensure things ran smoothly. 100% recommend!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Mary Celer at the Durham Museum to help coordinate our wedding, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her incredible support. From the moment we started planning, Mary was thoughtful, helpful, and always accommodating to our needs. Whenever we had a question, she was quick to assist and always made sure we had the answers we needed. The Durham is a gorgeous venue that’s incredibly affordable. Mary explained it best when we went on our first tour: ‘Think of the Durham as the house.’ The museum is equipped with a list of trusted vendors, and Mary offered recommendations to vendors outside of that list, so we truly felt good about our decisions. What truly set our experience apart was how Mary went above and beyond. At one point, we were searching for a niche vendor that seemed nearly impossible to find, but Mary took the time to research and find options for us, which meant the world. If you’re considering the Durham Museum as your venue, you can rest assured that you’ll be in the best hands. Highly recommend!
