A Beautiful Venue

Got married here May 3rd. I couldn’t be happier with how everything went. The only critiques I have are of the cement in front of the beluga tank. There was many a hole for my heels to slip into. Luckily I didn’t fall at all. But it was crazy to navigate haha. Otherwise, Juno was the star of the wedding ceremony and I cannot complain about that whatsoever. The reception was gorgeous set up on the main aquarium floor. Surrounded by fish and jellies and turtles, it was amazing.

Kathy at Ocean Blue Catering has been wonderful to work with! She has also had such a positive attitude that has kept me excited for the big day so I have no worries about the food or table settings or anything!
When my fiancé and I met with her to go over the buffet options, she was very helpful and flexible in helping us to decide which options would work best and didn't try to "sell us" on anything.
I am very lucky to have picked Mystic Aquarium and have Ocean Blue Catering along with it!
