Amazing Wedding Venue

We loved hosting our wedding reception at the Brooks in April 2024! The venue is stunning and elegant. We loved the indoor and outdoor spaces available to us, especially the tented patio and Holly Court. Katie, the events manager, was extremely responsive, professional, and overall a joy to work with throughout the planning process. I appreciated the recommended vendors list that the Brooks provides, and they were also very flexible in accommodating our requests to work with other vendors. You will not be disappointed if you book this venue!

Exceeded all of our expectations!

Our experience with the Brooks was exceptional. They did a great job communicating and helping us stay on schedule throughout the planning process. Rachel Lutz our Special Events Coordinator was so helpful with ideas to enhance our guest experience and she was very quick to anticipate our needs the week prior to the wedding and on the wedding day. Everyone at the Brooks from the office staff to the security team was eager to help us make our wedding the dream wedding we had envisioned.

Gorgeous Museum Wedding- a Planner's Perspective

As a wedding planner, I visit and produce events at all types of venues and with all types of coordination teams. Nikki at The Brooks Museum is fabulous and has made my experience there priceless! The first wedding we produced at The Brooks was complicated, detail and timing wise, and Nikki was there to help in every way she could to make it work for the vendor team and the couple! Since that successful event, I have brought many brides to tour The Brooks and she has made them feel special and excited about their big day! I cannot wait to have another event there!
