If you are looking for the wow factor, this is the place! I've been wanting to get married here since forever and all my wedding dreams came true last weekend. It was just beautiful and so magical. There's no other way to describe it. Everyone will be blown away by your venue choice and just be in awe of the place. Sam, one of the day time special event coordinators at the Peabody, is just fantastic to work with throughout the process. On the night of, I was happy with their people as well. I would recommend getting a planner/coordinator and hire other vendors that know the venue because there are certain rules to be followed. However, when you have an experienced planner... following the rules isn't too difficult. The hanging lights are worth the extra expense! -

Our daughter and son-in-law selected the George Peabody Library for their wedding reception. The Peabody is known as one of the most beautiful libraries on earth. Its architecture perfectly complements transformation into a stunningly, picture perfect wedding reception setting, especially, in our case, with soft lighting strung across the atrium that beautifully accentuated the five tiers of black and brass railings and frosted glass ceiling.
Judy Moskowitz and Sam Bessen guided us through the application process. We fully appreciated the unique need to preserve the Peabody’s character and contents, which is the reason it is one of the most, if not the most, sought after venue for receptions. No other venue even comes close to its richness in... -

There are no words to describe the majesty of the Peabody Library. It is truly such a stunning venue. I could not imagine celebrating our love anywhere else. There were times throughout the night that I just had to stop and drink in the library. I would look around and feel such immense happiness that we chose to celebrate in a place full of such wonder and amazement. The staff were beyond helpful. From planning a walk-through to organzing the drop off and load up of several items, including an 8-foot book, they were always available. I never had to stress because of lack of communication. I never felt my day was just one of many for them. They... -

Allison Sent on 03/26/2017What can even be said about the Peabody? The venue is breathtaking without even a decoration. Add flowers and lighting and you are in something out of a fantasy. If you are a bibliophile like my husband and I, there is nowhere better. This is the venue of your dreams.
But the Peabody is wonderful not only for its beauty, but for its staff. For a bride planning without a wedding planner, they were so accommodating to my family and I, even setting up an extra meeting for coordination just to alleviate some of our concerns. I cannot imagine a better venue than the Peabody Library. -

Linette Sent on 06/05/2014The Peabody library and staff were so easy to work with and the venue is just amazing!! It is such a stunning venue and it amazed all of our wedding guests when they walked through the doors after cocktail hour. I heard the quote "this place is so beautiful", etc so many times that night. Also guests said it was the most spectacular wedding venue that they had ever been in before!! Also we just had our reception at the Peabody. -

Megan Sent on 11/26/2011Beautiful!!!!! The library is the perfect place for a wedding if you want somewhere with a "Wow" factor. It is so beautiful, pictures cannot do it justice! All of our guests could not get over how beautiful it was and how unique. I would recommend this to any bride looking for a beautiful backdrop to a perfect night! -
Lisa Sent on 08/12/2018My husband and I were married at the George Peabody Library on 6/17/18. We held both our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception in the space. We had a small wedding with <100 close family and friends and the venue felt just right for us. Judy Moskowitz and her attentive staff are the absolute best--very accommodating, professional, and responsive. We were blown away by their level of service and we are so glad we were able to hold our wedding at the Peabody. We actually did not even look at any other venues!! The venue is absolutely gorgeous and (as one of our guests told us) the space literally takes your breath away. The venue is very good value because...
