The entrance to the BWC is elegant.

The charming gardens surrounding the building

make it an excellent backdrop for photos.

The foyer provides a warm and welcoming large entry to the building.

From it guests can enter the library and dining room on the first floor or to the ballroom on the second floor.

There is an elevator to the ballroom or guests can use the large open staircases on the east and west sides of the building.

The dining room seats 80 for a banquet style dinner. It can also be set for a wedding ceremony or conference.

All the rooms are bright during the daytime because of the large palladium doors which also make them easily accessible.

The dining room is set here for a wedding ceremony.

Here the dining room with its paladium doors is set for a small dinner party.

The library can be set for a cocktail hour, a meeting room, a small dinner party

or just about anything you can imagine.

In January the Museum of Lifestyle turns it into a Winter Wonderland complete with crafts and games for children.

With a few changes in furniture, the library is transformed into a small dinner party or cocktail hour setting. The photo was taken facing north.

Here is the same setting facing south.

The grand piano in the Library makes an excellent backdrop for photos. It can also be rented for the occasion.

Use your imagination to create whatever effect you want. Browse through the next photos to see what others have done with it.

This couple chose magenta as their wedding colors and decorated the ballroom with that theme. The view is from the stage looking south.

Many decorators take the theme right up to the cathedral ceiling.

Here the black and white is offset with just a touch or romantic red.

This ceremony was held on Halloween in the Library

The Halloween theme was carried through even to the placecards.

This couple chose to be married on the stage with their guests participating from their tables. Doing it this way allowed the couple to have a long "aisle" to walk down.
