Crim Dell Meadow and Sunken Gardens Weddings

Directly behind the historic Christopher Wren building is the beautifully landscaped Sunken Garden and Crim Dell meadow. Based on the design for the Chelsea Gardens in London, the Sunken Garden has been a favorite spot for generations of students. Rental furniture can be set up for ceremonies, cocktail hour, and receptions of various sizes.

Miller Hall Weddings

The School of Business is available year-round for wedding ceremonies and receptions. The Brinkley Commons room can seat up 200 for receptions, with additional space in the lounges and atrium for cocktail receptions. Ceremonies can be celebrated in the courtyard or atrium.

Matoaka Ampitheatre Weddings

The area under the sail-shaped awning can be used for wedding ceremonies, receptions, and rehearsal dinners. While a wonderful option for May, June, July and August events, the ampitheatre is booked heavily by students during the academic school year.

School of Education Weddings
