Wedding Ceremony at the Museum: Rooted in Light and Design

The ceremony took place in the Edwards Court & The McCoy Family Broad Street Lobby at the museum, surrounded by soft natural light and artful design. Inspired Settings brought the couple’s vision to life through lush, garden-inspired florals in a summery palette of peach, blush, and buttery yellow. Each arrangement felt as if it had bloomed naturally from the museum’s modern lines, creating an atmosphere that was romantic, refined, and full of life.

Guests were welcomed by the sounds of Columbus Musicians and harpist Tiffany Harpist, setting an elegant tone for the afternoon. Every detail, from the couple’s personalized stationery by Ink and Ivory to thoughtful planning touches by MMJ Events, reflected care and intention.

Wedding Reception at the Museum: Designed with Intention

Following the ceremony, guests transitioned into cocktail hour in the Patricia M. Jurgensen Sculpture Garden. Custom drink toppers from Road to Joy Design added a playful personal touch, while the team at Columbus Museum Events provided impeccable service and catering. An ice luge by Rock on Ice kept signature cocktails cool and conversation flowing as friends and family mingled.

Dinner and dancing took place in the museum’s grand event space, the Schottenstein Property Group Pavilion transformed by Inspired Settings, BBJ La Tavola linens, Aiden and Grace rentals, and elegant chairs from Rent Wedding Chairs. A standout moment of the evening was the cake by Sweet and Shiny, designed as both a visual focal point and a seamless extension of the overall aesthetic. Thoughtfully crafted, it felt as much a part of the design as it did the celebration itself. Desserts from Pistacia Vera provided a sweet and memorable finish to the evening.

The energy of the evening came alive with music from The Chuck Taylors, whose performance kept the dance floor packed all night long. Between laughter, toasts, and heartfelt moments, the celebration struck a perfect balance between elevated elegance and effortless joy.
