Weddings and Special Events

The Augusta Museum of History is dedicated to creating a safe environment for our staff and guests. We have implemented procedures that  maintain social distancing and keep our facilities clean. 

Following CDC public health guidelines
Disinfecting public areas regularly
Limiting our capacity to allow adequate space to social distance
Posting helpful social distancing markers and signs

Practice social distancing by maintaining at least 3 feet of distance between you and others.
Wash your hands frequently and practice good hygiene when coughing or sneezing.

Enjoy a spectacular evening in the Museum’s grand Rotunda featuring a vaulted ceiling, beautiful black and white patterned terrazzo floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing downtown Augusta and views of the Savannah River. This venue can host standing receptions for up to 250 guests as well as seated dinners for up to 140 people for dinner and dancing.

The Rotunda is perfect for weddings, rehearsal dinners, birthdays, graduation celebrations, holiday parties, or any other special occasion. For weddings, enjoy a cocktail reception in our allée or surrounding the fountain while the Rotunda is transformed from a ceremony site to a reception space. Add on our Activity Center, which can be used for additional space or a Bridal Suite. Consider including the galleries of the Augusta Museum of History to provide a historic element to your event for a one-of-a-kind experience.
