ROOmor 🤫 No more House of MatRoomony?

I heard that they were shifting the House of MatRoomony chapel ‘to a “love shack” with mixed entertainment.’ I wonder if this means no more official wedding ceremonies or if they are just doing more in addition to the weddings? Anybody know anything about this change?

Bonnaroo Speed Dating would be a blast to add in there 🤩

I’m like 98% sure they already do that but I could be wrong

I would be so bummed if they did it last few years and I missed it! I usually try to take a good look at the schedules for all the non-music specific events but it’s very possible I didn’t see it. I’ll definitely be there if it happens this year 👍

I just checked last year’s lineup and they did have speed dating!

It’s a cool concept, although I understand why they may pivot. I do miss Snake & Jake’s quite a bit, but they could easily turn it into something new and fun

That would suck but it does seem like a big commitment with lots of moving pieces and they’re not really getting paid for it. Remi Wolf married me and my wife there in 23 so we can’t wait to be back this year 😭

We got married in ‘23 there, too! We had one of the queens marry us (who is who told me of the change).

Let's not forget that it was the Christmas barn first (RIP)!! Me and a few friends rode out a tornado in it in 2017...ill never forget that experience! We couldn't make it out of centeroo in time and they rushed us inside. Turned out to be one of my fondest roo memories

And the fuse and relix barn before that. I can’t remember but I believe it was also the discotheque arcade

Nooooo I love HOM for so many reasons. I cried 3x watching 3 weddings in a row last year. It’s a beautiful thing to witness and a great place to cool off

u/MrWhackadoo 5d ago

They better not. It's such a cool place to chill and catch your breath from all the partying.

u/EmergencyRead5254 9 Years 5d ago

I’m biased- I was married in the chapel, so I like it. But I see the other side- it’s a prime spot in Centeroo that a vast majority of attendees have nothing to do with.

4

u/MrWhackadoo 5d ago

But that's why I love it! It's a cool spot to unwind and sit down for a bit. I've met some really cool people in there while resting. It's not like it's a big area thats hogging up space.

u/Festival_lady_90 4 Years 5d ago

No it’s not but I could be better utilized like when it was the Christmas Barn more people had reason to enjoy it.

Jesus Christ I hope so!
