Many famous acts have graced the stage over the past 90 years, including Doris Day and Bob Hope to current headliners like Jerry Seinfeld and touring Broadway shows. While the historical value alone is unique, it’s the beautiful architecture and stunning details that draw our couples in. There’s a feeling about standing in the Embassy that transcends time, so, in a word, it’s timeless.”
