“We couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our wedding reception. Having mostly out of town guests, the Hunter Museum is the perfect way to showcase Chattanooga. It was breathtaking. The staff was so easy to work with, so accommodating, and they did everything in their power to make sure we had the best night of our lives!!!”
