A space where loved ones, especially from out of town, can meet and spend time with each other and the bride and groom. This will be a simple gathering with light lunch/brunch food. Indoor and outdoor spaces will be available. You are welcome to stay the whole time or just stop by.

Ceremony: Seating and prelude will begin at 5 p.m. in the Toledo Zoo Formal Gardens. The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30, so please be seated by 5:15. A reception will follow in the Toledo Zoo Museum of Natural History from 6 p.m. to midnight. We'll have a cocktail hour and buffet dinner then dance the night away! Please go to the Toledo Zoo South Entrance (aka Broadway entrance): 2683 Broadway St., Toledo, OH 43609 (this is the address of the parking lot; the entrance is right across the street). IMPORTANT: Do NOT put “Toledo Zoo” in Google Maps; this will take you to “2 Hippo Way,” which is at the opposite end of the zoo, and you cannot walk to the wedding from there after hours.
