A National Historical Landmark and Full-Service Venue: Meet Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum

"This is such an important place of historical significance to my family that I hosted my wedding reception here. My guests were not only thrilled with the elegant treatment they were given, but also enjoyed that they were free to tour the museum at their leisure during our lovely party. The Art Deco atmosphere makes for amazing reception photos too!"

Please tell us a little more about the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum.

​"The Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum is dedicated to collecting, documenting, preserving and interpreting the history of the Auburn Automobile Company, Duesenberg, Inc., Auburns, Cords, and Duesenbergs. In 2001, we added the Willennar Hall Ballroom, which gave us the ability to host a wide range of events from birthday parties to weddings of over 500 guests. The added events space has allowed us to share the museum's artifacts and history with many people who otherwise may have never know what we do."

What sets you apart from others? Why should a bride choose you?

"​We are located in a 90-year-old building that was designed in the Art Deco style of the '20s. With the addition of modern amenities, brides have the ability to enjoy their dream wedding in an elegant and comfortable setting. Brides who book their weddings with us enjoy full services including tables, chairs, linens, bartenders and security included in every wedding package. To ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience, the events coordinator and staff will be on hand for the duration of all weddings."

Do you have anything exciting that you would like to share?

"We are a National Historic Landmark, our museum staff has written an award-winning cocktail book, 'Cocktails of the Auburn Automobile Company,' and we were named a top 10 National Destination for Car Enthusiast in 2019 by USA Today. We are also a host venue for various community fundraising events."

What inspires you to be in the wedding industry?

"Weddings are such a special and joyous time in a couple's life, and I love being a part of that moment. Seeing a young couple in love and enjoying the happiest day of their lives is what drives me to work as hard as I do every day."

What do you love most about working with couples?

"I love the enthusiasm of young people who are embarking on their new future together, and the joy in being surrounded by their loved ones on the most special day of their lives."
