    I'm always worried about how late my wedding will be. Because it's in a museum, nothing can take place until after it's closed.

    Ceremony: 6:30pm - 7:00pm

    Cocktail Hour: 7:00pm - 8:00pm

    Reception: 8:00pm - 12:00am

    Ceremony: 1:30PM - 2:00PM

    Cocktail Hour: 2:00PM - 3:00PM

    Reception: 3:00PM - 5:30PM

    The venue only does weddings in the mornings/afternoons so we picked the latest option:

    Ceremony: 12 noon til 12:30

    Reception: 12:30 til 2:30

    We haveta be out of there by 3pm. We wish we could have the ceremony in the late afternoon thou!
