Perfect for our elopement ceremony
My husband and i just had an elopement ceremony at the Florida Museum of Natural History and in the Butterfly Rainforest. The staff was wonderful, the venue was beautiful and we got the MOST amazing pictures. I couldn't be happier! -

Megan M. Married on 10/26/2019Our museum reception was a hit with our guests!
Our wedding reception at the Florida Museum of Natural History was fabulous. Amber was incredibly easy to communicate with and helped make sure that everything turned out just how we envisioned. Every detail was covered from table layouts to decor placement and we did not even have to worry about it. Walking into our reception and seeing everything come together was absolutely magical. Our guests loved that they could explore the museum during the reception and the space was beautiful. I highly recommend the Florida Museum of Natural History as a venue space and cannot speak highly enough of Amber Tison and her team. -

Awesome Venue for your guest! If your looking for a unique reception experience..than this is the place! You and your guest get a great banquet room to use and a private night at the museum to walk around and explore!
Beautiful and unique location to get married in Gainesville!
If you're looking to make a statement for your wedding reception - look no further than the FLMNH! Their staff (especially Amber) is courteous and responsive. By keeping it all on UF's campus, it makes for a swift transition from your ceremony at the Baughman Center!
