Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • It's dramatic. The Autorino Great Hall is completely enclosed in glass, and features a gable-vaulted ceiling soaring 35 feet above the floor. A one-of-a-kind glass chandelier designed by famed artist Dale Chihuly is the space's most arresting element.
  • You have a choice of beautiful event spaces. Hand-carved woodwork, lovely chandeliers and a chamber stage distinguish the Seaversn Room, which also comes with a baby grand piano and outdoor terrace. The refined, third-floor Harace Bushnell Suite overlooks the Great Hall, while the intimate Belding Stage features a stunning "Music of the Spheres" mural overhead. In Mortensen Hall you'll find a striking Art Deco interior.
  • It's conveniently located in downtown Hartford, and the innovative event staff will help you plan your celebration. They offer audiovisual support plus in-house event cuisine provided by Max's Catering—and if you're a subscriber you'll save 10% on all reception space rentals!
