We adored Marymount for our wedding. The chapel is beautiful and the staff is more accommodating than I could have asked. I highly recommend Marymount to anyone looking for a wedding venue.

Trudy was a great help very patient and knowledgeable in helping me plan our wedding. The grounds are absolutely beautiful! Everyone was courteous, helpful and flexible in helping me pull off a beautiful day! Trudy helped me snag my "soon to be's" dream car, as a surprise, to drive him into our outdoor ceremony. We were able to dress up the tables and chairs the evening before, allowing me to be pampered and relaxed the morning of. Tara helped us pull off timing of cars and music and ensured the entire evening went well.
The entire crew came out to assist with clean up and were so friendly! Absolutely LOVE this venue and can not wait for another visit!

Wedding in June 2021

Heaters were turned on, on 100° day, the venue coordinator was no where to be found. All promises were not kept, was lied to on multiple occasions about safety issues. Guest were denied entry into museum before reception. (We paid for that) our bridal party was told to tear down, vacuum, sweep. (We paid for it to be done by them) the coordinator made inappropriate comments about minor girls in attendance. They also double booked the venue and complicated set up for the wedding. There was no parking due to this. All our other vendors were stressed and upset over the situation. Its a gorgeous site, our dream place. But it was ruined by Jeff Stewart (coordinator) and his malicious actions that put our loved ones in harms way.
