Weddings at Crystal Bridges: Venue Spotlight

I had the unique opportunity to photograph one of the first-ever full weddings at Crystal Bridges Museum and every time I have a wedding there, I feel so inspired. There are a ton of great wedding venues in Northwest Arkansas, and Crystal Bridges is at the top of that list. First off, you get to be surrounded by art. How cool is that? Second, not many venues in the area were designed by famous architects, so that’s dope. Third, their food program is incredible, so you know your guests are going to be treated to beautiful and tasty wedding food. Finally, the staff at Crystal Bridges are legit professionals who care about the experience Crystal Bridges delivers.
