Having our wedding at the Discovery Park was the best decision! The staff was so easy to work with. They helped with venue tours, seating arrangements, decor drop off, clean up. I cannot say enough good things about the Park. Because this is a museum type venue, we had so many options when it came to photos. We were able to get married on the chapel lawn and incorporate a traditional vibe with the chapel, take photos in the different gardens with the beautiful white columns behind us, and have our reception indoors in the Dinosaur Hall which gave a unique experience to our guests. It truly hit every box for our dream wedding. Our guests still talk about how cool it was that the reception was in a museum!
Lauren and the Discovery Park team were amazing to work with! Lauren was so helpful even throughout Covid and all the restrictions. Any question I had, she was quick to answer and was very detailed in price and breakdown of everything. We had our rehearsal dinner in the tower, married in the chapel, and had our reception in Dino Hall!
