We could not recommend the Elmwood Park Zoo enough. This was the perfect venue for our wedding. Our guests absolutely loved how unique it was and they still talk about how cool it ...
was to be able to see all the animals. We even got to have some of them feed the giraffes!
The staff here are amazing at what they do. They were so helpful and friendly through the whole process to the day of our wedding.
The ceremony and reception space were beautiful and we were really able to make it our own still with personal decorations as well.
If you want a truly memorable, unique and beautiful wedding.. the Elmwood Park Zoo is the way to go.
Absolutely incredible experience! All of our guests have been raving about the wedding for days. The zoo is such a unique and fun venue, and they make it easy to add on experiences...
to match your wants and your budget.
The food was fantastic, and my guests had a lot of dietary restrictions that the venue was beyond accommodating for. I can't say enough good things about all of the staff we worked with! They were so detail-oriented, helpful, calm - they went above and beyond to make sure that our day was relaxing and special.
We feel so connected to the zoo now, and we really couldn't be happier. All of our friends and family took incredible photos having fun with the animals - we don't have our professional photos back, but I'm sure they'll be fantastic. And the memories are priceless! Thank you to everyone for making our day so special.
