As a child, I went here while on a trip to Chicago. When my wife and I were looking at wedding venues, we were reeled in by the majestic views, unique space and courteous service we got on our first visit. My wife came back with her mother for a second visit just to make sure this was "the" place. Though I know they book dozens of weddings a year, for the 18 months that we dealt with them everything went flawless. At our actual wedding, everything went as smooth as butter. The ambiance by the reef was memorable. Many of our guests had gotten tired of the typical hotel banquet facilities and we knew this was a refreshing change and would stand out. When you book a wedding here, there are also amazing photo opps for friends and family all around museum campus.

Outstanding! What an amazing place for an event. The guests were in awe and many complemented us on the ability to have the three areas for the wedding. First the oceanarium, then the dinner around the Caribbean Reef and finally the dancing in the main foyer. The staff delivered to perfection -- wow!
