Weddings and Receptions

Yes, you can have your wedding and reception at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center! Make your wedding even more memorable and extraordinary by holding it in one of many areas of the museum. A premier location: the south-facing window in the Whitney Gallery of Western Art. The raised platform at the end of the gallery faces a breathtaking view of the bronze sculpture Buffalo Bill—The Scout and the surrounding mountains. It's one of many "one-of-a-kind" areas at the Center.

Other choice locations for a wedding or reception include two sculpture gardens, the Cashman-Greever and the Braun. These are summertime favorites for both nuptials and receptions. The grouped aspen and spruce trees make a beautiful backdrop to your most important photographs. And the sunken amphitheater is a perfect setting for group photos. Tables and chairs interspersed on the lawn among the trees makes for an intimate setting.

Our wedding specialist is here to assist you during this important event. View our Wedding Reception Itinerary.

Meetings and Conferences

The area of choice for a meeting or conference depends on the size and type of gathering. From our Webster Boardroom to our Coe Auditorium, we have space for small to large groups in a professional and quiet atmosphere. All spaces can be fully equipped by our audio-visual team. In addition, our catering department is here to serve you. It is our goal to welcome you and to make sure your meeting or conference is a successful and efficiently-run event.

"Thank you, BBHC, for providing the terrific facility, tasty food, and warm and friendly atmosphere for our annual Christmas party. It was a thrill to think our small group could have a party of world-class caliber at a famous museum. I would urge anyone who wants to have a fun-filled evening with good food, wonderful surroundings, and friendly staff to book a 'Night at the Museum' to make your party complete!"

Keep the Center open after hours for your event!

To enhance the experience of your guests at an after-hours event, we can arrange to reserve one—or even all five—museums to remain open while they are here. This is a popular option for groups whose interests are related to one of our collections and subject areas. Call 307.899.3305 or e-mail for details and rates.

Activities to enhance your event!

Add on a program or special tour to enhance your event at the Historical Center.

• Live birds of prey program
