Perfect Venue with Great Communication!
MOMI was the perfect wedding venue for us since we both love film. But even if you aren't a movie buff, the MOMI is an incredible venue - it looks amazing, its spacious and easy to get to, and (the best part) your guests get to explore all of the fun and interactive exhibits! We also had the pleasure of working with BG Hacker, the museum's event coordinator, who always made us feel like we were in good hands. He was responsive and helped us work out all of the little details that go into making a wedding a success. One thing we were worried about was our decision not to hire a DJ and instead have my husband do the music himself -- BG and his staff really helped with all of the technical elements and the music elements turned out great! We can't recommend MOMI enough!
BG Hacker
BG is one of those rare gems in our industry. Very professional, super attentive, and most importantly extremely caring. I Have worked with BG for over 11 years planning corporate events, product launches, screenings, Galas, and many-many-many Weddings. I watched him use that care to advocate and help his event clients create, plan, and manage countless successful events/Parties. With many years of experience, he brings a wealth of creativity and exceptional ideas. Ultimately very contributory to the event planning process. Meeting his high standard of excellence anyone would be lucky to be recommended by him. The Museum of Moving Image has an asset in BG heading and leading the events team, with this asset you can be assured you are in good hands when deciding to have your special event at the MOMI.
