Micro-weddings

The Gibson House Museum hosts micro-wedding ceremonies in its second-floor Music Room for parties of up to 15.

Additionally, we are an LGBT+-friendly venue for weddings and all other events.

​ 

  • A 2-hour time frame for your ceremony and wedding photos, which may be taken in the Music Room, on the staircase, or in the front hallway

  • Space for 15 people (including officiant, attendants, and any vendors)

  • The use of our gold Chiavari chairs

  • Plastic glassware for a champagne toast following the ceremony (champagne to be provided by wedding party). Please note that food is not permitted in the Museum.

  • Rental fee is tax-free, and proceeds go toward preserving the house for future generations to enjoy.
