The Importance of Equality
At Only In My Dreams Events we believe strongly in the right of marriage equality. Being based in Massachusetts, the first state to legalize such unions is something we are quite proud of.
We know first hand that it is not always easy to find resources that are inclusive for same sex marriages. When we planned our own wedding at the Colonial Theatre in Pittsfield, MA. When using many conventional services, we always had to pick who was the bride and who was the groom, something that was not only impossible, but quite frustrating. Here at Only In My Dreams Events, we strive to have all our materials and vendors be inclusive of same sex couples.
Through our close relationship with Berkshire Theatre Group and its Colonial Theatre, we offer a very unique opportunity for a one of a kind wedding. With over 700 Seats and lots of lobby space, the Colonial offers amazing possibilities for your special day. Also, the theater is located in Massachusetts, which offers the ability to tie the knot in the historic state that first legalized marriage equality in 2004, leading the way for marriage equality across the country. If the Colonial Theatre is not the right fit for you, we have plenty of other venues that we can recommend that also stand for equality.

Testimonials
“Having Only In My Dreams at our side every step of the way is incredibly reassuring. I was so thankful numerous times when we confronted an obstacle or an item we couldn’t make a decision on for your positive and decisive contribution to the planning and preparations, both in the months ahead and the day of the event.”
“Dear Oskar - You were wonderful ! Totally professional but with a big heart. You were there for me every moment - “had my back” from start to finish. Without question, you are the very best party planner in the Berkshires and maybe in the whole wide world. Your up beat attitude and your wry, marvelous sense of humor saved the day time and again.”
“Our memorial service was elegantly subdued. Only In My Dreams’ selections of the food, drink and decor was in perfect good taste for the occasion and the staff was nurturing and efficient. I recommend Only in My Dreams for any event without hesitation. ”
